Subscribe Free1492 Conquest Of Paradise is a masterpiece of aesthetic filmmaking by director Ridley Scott and cinematographer Adrian Biddle. The film images, their widescreen composition, and soundtrack are exceptional; one of the finest LaserDiscs ever produced. Scott delivers the adventure story of Christopher Columbus (Gerard Depardieu) on a grand scale with sophisticated and dazzling images that tell of his vision of a new route to the East, and the subsequent treachery and carnage his voyages would bring. The film chronicles the first two landmark voyages of this Admiral of the Sea right up to his third and last, and the collision of Old World arrogance with New World innocence.
