They did. DAY OF THE SIEGE. Not bad. Lots of computer generated special effects.

Someone did.

Not the greatest movie.

I do take issue with #2. The biggest ally of the Turks were the Catholic kings of France, who operated on the principle that the enemy of their enemy (The Holy Roman Empire) was their friend and had secret alliances with the Turks. They refused to send troops to fight them and tried to take advantage of the situation to grab territory.

It’s been done. Not particularly well, but it’s been done. Most recently in a piece with F Murray Abraham as the only actor I recognized. A fairly solid but plodding effort, it does stay fairly true to the historical facts. But for a story so ripe with dramatic potential, it fell flat.

The protestant revolution may turn out to be just one more heresy in the long run. It took hundreds of years for the Cathar heresy to come to fruition and hundreds more to quash it. Lutherans and Calvinists siding with moslems is nothing new.
