loosely based on the decameron , virgin territory is a bit of a shambles from the offset . it is trying to be a comedy in a medieval setting , something the far superior a knight ' s tale does so well , but unlike a knight ' s tale , fails to mix it with the drama and romance well , failing at every conceivable turn . the plot is strung along between unfunny jokes and some of the acting is at times unbearable ( hayden christensen ) . mischa barton doesn ' t do herself any favours either and is incapable of making it look like she even wants to be there . then there ' s the cameo from david walliams , a man whose comedy style i generally find amusing , utilised horribly in what may be his worst attempt at acting yet . the attempts at gross - out humour could ' ve been funny , but they seem to be added as an afterthought and end up pointless and lacklustre . do yourself a favour , and skip this . 1 / 5
virgin terriroty is a film which definitely doesn ' t take itself too seriously , and so as long as you aren ' t looking for a classic period drama you shouldn ' t be disappointed . set in 14th century florence it plays off a group of young ladies who must retain their virtue to achieve a good marriage against their suitors who are just as desparate . throw in the bad guy ( tim roth ) who wants to force the heroine ( mischa barton ) into marraige , sex crazed nuns , some kidnapping into slavery and some swordfighting to round out the action . all the actors look like they had a lot of fun making the film and this shows in the comedy that plays throughout the film . a fun hour and a half .

phil , i feel your pain . but i ' d also like to take whoever wrote this plot line and poke out their eyes with hot poker sticks . seventeen and sexually active ? really ? this isn ' t the same as the show ' s toddler letting loose with an f - bomb in a prior episode . ( don ' t they all do that at some point ? )
the problem i have with this is that i don ' t believe that every high school senior is out there having sex , is ready to have sex or needs to feel that 17 or 18 is the appropriate age to have sex because he or she saw it on prime - time tv .
go ahead and flame me , all you parents who justify your lack of parenting with lame lines like
all the kids are doing it .
here ' s a news flash : they aren ' t . and maybe yours wouldn ' t be either if you had taught them about responsibility and consequences and not gone belly - up on doing your job .
according to the guttmacher institute , only 13 percent of teens have had sex by age 15 and 30 percent - - of both male and female teens - - still haven ' t had intercourse by the time they turn 19 . let me say it again : not everybody is doing it .
the institute found that teens are waiting longer to have sex than they did in the past . from 2006 to 2008 , about 11 percent of unmarried females aged 15 to 19 and 14 percent of unmarried males that age had had sex before they were 15 years old , while in 1995 , those percentages were 19 percent and 21 percent , respectively . read that : not only isn ' t everybody doing it , more kids nowadays are not .
but those teens who do have sex may face serious consequences . the guttmacher institute reports that each year , 750 , 000 teenage girls between 15 and 19 in the u . s . get pregnant . in 2008 , those between 13 and 24 years old comprised 17 percent of people diagnosed with hiv / aids in the u . s . the institute also reports that while
15 - 24 - year - olds represent only one - quarter of the sexually active population , they account for nearly half ( 9 . 1 million ) of the 18 . 9 million new cases of stis each year .
these numbers reveal that some sexually active teens are taking serious risks , making responsible coverage of the issue even more important .
but numbers aside , there is a larger issue : the emotional land mines that sexual intercourse plants . seventeen - year - olds may be physically ready to have intercourse , but emotionally they are far from being able to handle it . unless you depersonalize sex and turn it into a sport for physical release - - in which case , may i suggest you just buy a vibrator and avoid the risk of hiv and pregnancy - - intercourse is something more , something bigger . it ' s an intimate expression of love between two people , not something you do just to feel good . fundamentalists might go a step further and say it ' s something you do to procreate ; that ' s their view , not mine . but i do believe that the intensity of pleasure that comes from having sex should be followed by something more than
i have to go home now because i have a science test tomorrow and dad gave me a 10 p . m . curfew .
i ' m not saying that sex outside marriage is a bad thing ; i actually don ' t think it is . but i do think sex involving high school seniors is a path to emotional letdown , disappointment and a self - esteem battering similar to tossing christians to the lions .
first - person essays , features , interviews and q & as ; about life today .
hayden christensen stars as lorenzo de lamberti , a ne ' er - do - well swashbuckler pining for the hand ( and flower ) of pampinea , played by mischa barton . on the run from pampinea ' s other suitor ( played by tim roth ) , lozenzo takes refuge in a convent , where the nuns are anxious to be filled with something other than the holy spirit . this action / sex comedy is written and directed by david leland .
while not great , the 16x9 anamorphic widescreen presentation manages to deliver satisfactorily enough to make for a pleasant viewing experience . colors are drab and uninspired , but the framerate holds up well
languages and audio the dolby 5 . 1 surround mix is somewhat flat and could likely have passed for a good stereo mix . rear speaker and subwoofer are almost nonexistent , but the center speaker holds up well and delivers the goods .
whats with that cover ? i mean yeah , it pretty much sums up the movie , but it might as well be from star wars episode vii : the national lampoon wars . it ' s on a high - quality , rasied card stock sleeve though , so i guess all is well . i guess .
the extras consist of nothing more than a short behind the scenes segment , and a few throwaway deleted scenes . the
censored scenes of sexuality
, are simply trimmed versions of other , relatively tame scenes in the film . nothing sexy or explicit in the least .
david walliams : cart pusher
is a scene from the film that already made it into the final cut . if there was anything extended in this scene , i missed it . the fact that this was one of the more memorable segments in the movie does not warrant it ' s re - inclusion in the extra features . the cover acts as if this is a noteworthy extra , or that subtitling for the hearing impaired is considered an extra feature . hardly !
this movie didn ' t have a lot going for it to begin with , but the simple , unthreatening nature and tone of the film seemed to promise something that never really materialized . this dvd is a passer . if you ' re even just looking for some erotic entertainment , there ' s none to be had here .

after the battle a new hope begins 14th century italy and a beautiful princess ( barton ) in left penniless and alone after her wealthy parents perish during an outbreak of plague . seizing on this opportunity the evil gerbino de la ratta ( roth ) pressures her to marry him as an escape from financial ruin . the fate of the princess now rests with a mysterious stranger , lorenzo ( christensen ) , a travelling rogue who swears to win her affection and overthrow his long - time nemesis , the brutal de la ratta .
guess it ' s meant to be a bawdy comedy but doesn ' t really work . an art house carry on film . gorgeous locations and an even more beautiful cast but it ' s all a bit awkward and silly .
like ' a knights tale ' ? . . . you ' ll love this !
a truly fun period comedy film ; beautifully shot , beautiful sets , costumes and people . excellent script and the fact that the film is based on a classic medievel italian story ( which incidentally was bannished by the vatican as ' lewd ' and ' debauched ' , which to my mind works in its favour ! ) only serves to make the film a must - see . watch out for a couple of hilarious cameo appearances too ! great old - fashioned romp guaranteed to put a smile on your face ! a truly european film , rich and decadent and a bloody good laugh . . . . how refreshing !
how anyone can give this 5 stars is beyond me ! ! only gets 1 star because i don ' t know how to give no stars ! ! how they got this cast to appear in this utter rubbish i will never know ! don ' t let the list of names involved fool you - this is awful . it ' s like a carry - on film without even any humour - it stinks ! tim roth . . what are you doing ? ?
unexpected but fun . beautifully done , humor , a lot of sex ( which i did not expect from the summary ) .
be warned / advised : if you consider watching this movie , do not expect a sword and sandals film as labeled on the cover .
it kind of felt like a knock - off from american pie , only in medieval times . however , the story on itself is quite amusing !
if you ' re looking for something high brow then this is certainly not for you . it ' s not even a period drama in the sense that the term is normally used .

hardwood
was accepted into
on the lot
. the film is now complete and playing film festivals .
since the film ' s premiere at hot docs 2004 , hardwood has garnered multiple awards and international critical acclaim . the film has screened at over 20 films festivals throughout canada and the us .
awards for hardwood include best documentary at the world wide short film festival , best short documentary at the big sky documentary film festival , jury ' s choice award at the black maria film + video festival and four awards at the yorkton short film and video festival ( including a craft award for best ( non - dramatic ) direction and the coveted golden sheaf of excellence award for the top film of 2004 ) .
hardwood
was also part of last year ' s official selection at the infact film series in los angeles .
davis’s first film , hardwood , was nominated for an academy award for best short documentary . he received the don haig award at the hot docs festival for invisible city . davis also directed the short film aruba , the 2016 doc giants of africa and most recently the documentary short rivolta .
a film about the director ' s relationship with his father who was a team member of the harlem globetrotters .
the film also features never - seen - before dramatic archival material discovered in private and public archives in israel and europe .
hardwood became a reality for me in 2000 when i read hubert ' s first funding proposal . it was seven oversized pages , each with a black and white photo or two and a few lines written beneath , describing the film . hubert ' s proposal was simple , elegant and poignant , so reflective of his completed film . all through the process of making
hardwood ,
hubert kept me involved . he asked me for feedback on what he wrote , got me to set up shoots in vancouver and chicago and research archival footage , and then he sent me rough cuts as he went through the process of editing
hardwood .
as a retired documentary filmmaker , i was deeply honored my son asked me to work on his first film .
currently on tour throughout the us with the film , brody explained how the unrehearsed words he spoke from the heart upon beating the soviets are about much more than just basketball . his “on the map” phrase entered the israeli vernacular because it resonated far beyond the hardwood court .
hardwood began as an opportunity for me to support my brother hubert in his dream of becoming a filmmaker . the
hardwood experience ,
as i have now begun to affectionately describe the process of participating in the making and showing of hardwood , has been therapeutic and enlightening . as i contemplated organizing public showings of hardwood in atlanta , a close friend and mentor told me that
our people ( black ) need this ; if one person decides to reconnect with their family , then sharing your family ' s story will be worth it .
he was right !
read the full text of the poem » he shares in the film ,
there are some things i had to figure out .
‘the film reflects a period of history that is still with so many israelis as they go to sleep and wake up every day . it’s something they tell their kids and grandkids about’
as a human and civil rights activist for over a decade i have never experienced more
intimate public discussions
than the ones that hubert and i engaged in after we premiered hardwood in atlanta community settings . sons , mothers , fathers and daughters openly cried in describing how they
needed this
because now they can talk about what has happened in their own families . there is a universal message that hardwood offers to families of all races . but in a time when 70 percent of african - american children are born out of wedlock , and are twice as likely as white children to experience divorce , hardwood can become a powerful tool in the process of reconnecting and repairing our communities , family by family .
while the surprise 1977 victory and brody’s remarks are legendary among israelis of all ages , this astounding sporting accomplishment is little known across the atlantic . menkin , a lifelong maccabi tel aviv fan , decided it was time that americans became familiar with this miracle on hardwood .
menkin originally made a film about the story for israeli television , but realized after meeting executive producers nancy spielberg and roberta grossman — the team behind “above and beyond” — that there could be a possibility of expanding it into a feature aimed at american audiences .
i am currently living in toronto with my wife . i have recently completed production on my second short film , a drama called aruba , under the banner of my production company , shine . i also have a documentary in development called the invisible city about racial profiling .
hardwood is a personal journey by director hubert davis , the son of former harlem globetrotter mel davis , who explores how his father ' s decisions affected his life and those of his extended family . elegantly structured into three chapters entitled
love ,
recollection
and
redemption ,
davis uses personal interviews , archival footage and home movies to delve into his father ' s past in the hope of finding a new direction for his own . at its core , hardwood is about the power of redemption and the healing of the bonds between fathers and sons .
obviously , the highlight of the year was when hardwood was nominated for an academy award in 2005 for best documentary short subject . the best part of the experience was being able to share it with my family , who joined my wife kelly and me on the red carpet . i think the honor of being nominated was very validating for my family in having the courage to tell our story . the whole experience has brought me closer to my family and has given me a better insight into them as people . making hardwood has taught me so much about myself and has been the most rewarding professional experience of my life .
“the film reflects a period of history that is still with so many israelis as they go to sleep and wake up every day . it’s something they tell their kids and grandkids about . so much has happened in the world since then , but israel has stood strong throughout , ” brody said .
menkin is pleased with the release of “on the map” just in time for the 40th anniversary of the game - changing championship . but more importantly , he is happy that he was able to get the film done while most of the former players are still able to recount their experiences for the camera .
“above and beyond , ” is a 2014 film about american and other foreign former wwii airmen who volunteered to fight for israel in the 1948 war of independence and contribute to the nascent israeli air force . menkin saw a parallel in the maccabi team that won the european championship . it consisted mainly of american players recruited to elevate the team’s playing .
hardwood was presented to me as a request to participate in a project that would help bring closure to our family regarding the past . i was reluctant at first , not eager to relive the events that caused me so much pain and anguish , but i agreed after much urging from my son , mawuli . i hoped that this would finally put the matter to rest .
in addition to brody , menkin got the full participation of the other surviving american - born members of the 1976 - 1977 maccabi tel aviv team , many of whom played numerous seasons with the team and ended up settling in israel and marrying israeli women . the film also features interviews with israeli former maccabi tel aviv star miki berkovich , former nba commissioner david stern , and american basketball icon bill walton , among others .
as for me , i recently celebrated my tenth wedding anniversary with my wife , jana , and our two sons kobie ( 7 ) and khari ( 5 ) by renewing our vows on a cruise with family and friends . we now live in atlanta , georgia , where i have my own law practice , mawuli davis & associates . i am currently the co - chair of the atlanta chapter of the national coalition of blacks for reparations in america ( n ' cobra ) and of the state bar of georgia young lawyers division ' s minorities in the profession committee . i have been a youth basketball coach for both of my sons ' basketball teams for the last four years . i am looking forward to continuing to facilitate community discussions about the
hardwood experience
with the hope that every family will find the courage to tell their story , and as hubert states in hardwood ,
forever change the pattern
of their lives .
participating in hardwood on a personal level was also rewarding . answering hubert ' s questions as he delved into our past allowed me to go where i hadn ' t been in a very long time — to the beginning of my relationship with his father , when i was so very young . a time filled with joy and pain . i wanted hubert to know why i made the decisions i did in my life and his sensitive face showed he understood , and that comforted me . it is deeply gratifying now to witness how hubert ' s touching and honest story of our family is inspiring others to re - examine their family ' s relationships .
i ' m often asked how i feel about my life being exposed in hardwood . my life has always been an open book . friends and family met mel in vancouver in the 60s . they knew i visited him on the road through the years . and everyone knew mel was married when i was pregnant with hubert . mel asked me to have his child and i said yes . it wasn ' t an easy decision to defend . my only regret was hurting mary etta . as the years passed i tried to talk myself out of my relationship with mel , to no avail . mel was my rock . one of the happiest days of my life was the day i married mel , 25 years after i met him .

mel is my steady companion and best friend now . i support him as he works with young people , teaching them about life through basketball . i visit family and friends . my passion is the natural world around me and i try to spend a few hours of each day just enjoying it . any spare time is divided between working to save a small
nature
park in vancouver and writing a book with mary etta exploring our parallel lives with mel .
i found that , while talking about the events that happened 20 years ago , i was still connected to the past by the present and the future . reliving those years has brought me to an understanding of a history that began long before my failed marriage . in telling the story , i was forced to relive it , reexamine it and experience it from a different perspective . many things i did not know were revealed and the origin of certain behaviors were made understandable .
if , by telling my story and that of my family — and i mean my extended family although it ' s not the
traditional
family — perhaps other families can face their past and move ahead to the future .
i am now a retired public school teacher and catholic school principal , living a life filled with children , grandchildren , volunteerism , church and other activities . i have no regrets about the past , because if it had been any different , i would not be who i am today and i would not have my son and grandchildren . . . my family .

miki berkovich ( left ) and tal brody after final game against varese , april 1977 . ( shmuel rahmani )
‘s earliest memories is being taken by his father out into the streets of tel aviv on february 17 , 1977 . there they joined the huge crowds celebrating the
basketball team’s victory against cska ( red army moscow ) in the semi - finals of the european championship . menkin , who was seven at the time , was one of 150 , 000 ecstatic revelers crammed that night into what is now rabin square .
menkin , now 46 , has never forgotten that euphoric moment and was recently compelled to memorialize it through his new documentary , “on the map . ”
it was an israel from a bygone era . in a deep economic recession , the country was still reeling from the yom kippur war and the 1972 munich olympic massacre of israeli athletes by palestinian terrorists . the cold war was raging , and young israel was boycotted and ostracized by much of the world .
maccabi tel aviv’s against - all - odds defeat of an enemy superpower’s mighty team electrified the nation . this was the same soviet team that ( controversially ) beat the heretofore undefeated us team at the 1972 munich olympics leading no one to bet on maccabi .
in a post - game interview , maccabi tel aviv’s american - born team captain tal brody conveyed the nation’s mood and aspirations . “we are on the map , and we are going to stay on the map — not just in sports , but in everything ! ” he exclaimed exuberantly in broken hebrew .
less than two months later , in a slim one - point victory , maccabi tel aviv beat the highly favored italian champions mobilgirgi varese in belgrade , yugoslavia , to win the european cup finals . ( the el al plane that brought the israeli players to the match required special permission to land in yugoslavia , which did not have diplomatic relations with israel . )
israelis celebrate in the streets of tel aviv after maccabi tel aviv’s victory over cska moscow , february 1977 . ( shmuel rahmani )
it was a turning point for israeli basketball , and israeli sports in general . since then , maccabi has made it all the way to another 17 european championship final games and won five of them .
“americans all know about the ‘miracle on ice’ – the unexpected us victory over the ussr in hockey at the 1980 olympics , but they don’t know about the amazing thing that maccabi tel aviv did just three years earlier , ” menkin told the times of israel from los angeles , where he is now based .
brody , from trenton , new jersey , had come to israel in 1965 to play in the maccabiah games . asked by moshe dayan and others to stay for at least a year to play with maccabi tel aviv , brody — picked 12th in that year’s nba draft by the baltimore bullets — decided to give up a career in the nba to play in israel .
“after that first year , i was sold , ” brody told the times of israel by phone from his home in tel aviv about his decision to stay on long term in israel .
he ended up leaving for a couple of years when he was drafted for us military service , but returned and made aliya to israel in 1970 . ( he also served in the idf . )

“we found footage shot behind the scenes at the games , which was really unusual for the 1970s , ” menkin noted .
“with [ coach ] ralph klein and [ player ] jim boatwright having passed away , i knew that we had to get moving on this project , ” the director said .
brody , who is now a goodwill ambassador for israel , is confident that american audiences introduced now to this amazing sports story will appreciate it as much as israelis who experienced the thrill of victory four decades ago .
“on the map” opens in los angeles on november 25 and in new york on december 9 .
