What movie?

Can you identify the film from this screenshot?

Tough one. I don't recognize it from memory, so best I can do is analyze the scene, a bit.

The soldiers and equipment look more medieval than mytho-Greco-Roman to me, so I am thinking this is a Dark Ages film. The central character on the horse seems diminutive compared to the others, so maybe that's Joan of Arc? Or Prince Valiant? (Setting suggests it might be a Robin Hood movie, but I think the character on horseback rules that out. Likewise any Camelot/King Arthur films.)

Am I close?

I would agree with Mr. Miller. Joan of Arc telling her troops where to go.

This is definitely a Roman Era movie you can tell by the Eagle Standard of the Legions (just left of center), and the woman on the left is Cleopatra. This is a scene from A QUEEN FOR CAESAR.

My mistake, Cleo is on the right on top with her followers.

Whoa, good catch on the standard, Steve. Now that you point it out, I can see it, but it's a bit murky.

At least I got the fact of the rider being female correct, though I'm impressed that you appear to have nailed the actual film. Good going.

Say, does your name have to be Stevens, Steven, or Steve be on this blog? 8-)

I usually use Steve.
