	Review: Conan the Barbarian
		Hither came Conan the Cimmerian, fl-haired, sullen eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandled feet.
		Conan, the pulp hero created by Robert E. Howard in the 1930s, was at the height of his popularity in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
		Conan grows up as a slave, and, once he is an adult (now played by Arnold Schwarzenegger), he becomes a gladiator champion and is used to breed prime slave stock.

		Conan the Barbarian is a 1982 film by director John Milius and is recognized as the breakthrough of actor Arnold Schwarzenegger.
		Conan is sold into slavery with the rest of the children from his village and forced to preform intense manual labor.

	AudioRevolution.com DVD Review of Conan The Barbarian
		Conan is always looking for warriors who bear the two-headed snake sigil he saw on the armor of the men who destroyed his village.
		Oddly, though, no mention is made of the sequel, 'Conan the Destroyer' (1984), or of the short-lived TV series of a couple of seasons ago, and there isn't enough about the original stories.
		'Conan the Barbarian' was a huge hit for Universal, instantly establishing the "sword and sorcery" subgenre of action films, which continues on to this day, bolstered by TV's "Hercules: The Incredible Journeys" and "Xena: Warrior Princess," the first of which was very strongly influenced by Howard's stories.

		Although Conan and Valeria are shown together frequently throughout the movie, he only speaks five words to her in the entire film - and they're all in the first thirty seconds after they meet: "You're not a guard", and "No".

		Conan grabs the princess, who is given the single pronoun that, in the final cut, is uttered by Rexor; and her identifying him is because of a very different association from that of Rexor’s: the princess recognizes the young barbarian from the street procession in Shadizar:
		Conan turns and sees the Princess struggling away. He leaps after her, grabs her brutally by the hair, and pulls her head around. She stares up at him.

	Conan the Barbarian (1982)
		The scene with Conan practicing using his sword again after being resurrected by the old wizard, was inspired by the movie One-Eyed Jacks (1961), where Marlon Brando's character practices wielding his weapon of choice, this time a gun, after a near death experience.
		Unlike the second Conan movie (the destroyer, which was a huge disappointment) this is dark, dirty, violent (with the harsh way) and most of all faithful to the original Conan by Howard.
		Only part of the movie that i weren't content about was the childhood of conan, the part where he grows up spinning some goddamn wheel of fortune, Howard specifically points in many novels that Conan was grown free in the Cimmeria.

	Filmtracks: Conan the Barbarian (Basil Poledouris)
		The producer of Conan the Barbarian, Dino De Laurentiis, was an advocate of experimenting with pop scores in the epic fantasy genre, and recommended such an approach for the film.
		Milius and Poledouris recognized that a rock/pop score would not function for Conan the Barbarian because of the film would rely on the music and cinematography to take the place of dialogue in painting the correct canvas for the film's depiction of the Hyborean age.
		The love theme for Conan is performed with a heroic and lush heart by woodwinds, which often act as the soul of the characters in the film.

		Young Conan (Jorge Sanz) lives a peaceful village life until a vicious snake-cult, led by Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones), murders his parents and condemns him to a life of enslavement.
		Conan teams with a cunning thief/archer (surfer Gerry Lopez) and a warrior fatale (Sandahl Bergman) to seek out Thulsa Doom and put an end to his twisted cult.
		Conan is one of Schwarzenegger's few pictures that isn't an "Arnold film." Even at his most physically gargantuan, Arnold's screen presence is eclipsed by the film's lavish production values and colossal scope.

	SoundtrackNet : Conan the Barbarian Soundtrack
		Conan the Barbarian was by all accounts the crowning achievement of this dubious film making spree, and it's not hard to see why.
		Even Conan's wizard friend (played by Mako) is given his own playful motif for clarinet and flute in "Battle of the Mounds, Part One", heard shortly before a return to the combative brass and choir associated with the Doom's saddled minions.
		Significant unreleased cues such as Conan's Gladiator Montage, the Temple Theft sequence, the post-orgy battle with Rexor and some unreleased music from the climactic Battle of the Mounds would be welcome additions to what is already one of the best film scores in history.

		Conan had been a pulp fiction hero in the 1930s and the stories had been republished in the 1960s with great covers by artist Frank Frazetta, with some unfinished stories by Howard completed by L. Sprague De Camp, and Lin Carter, who also wrote some adventures to fill in the gaps in the Conan chronology.
		"Conan the Barbarian" is not a great film, although it is arguably remains the best sword and sorcery film made to date, although clearly the competition for the honor is rather sparse.
		Whereas Milius chose to attire Conan sensibly in whatever armor or clothing was appropriate to the milieu, Fleischer had Arnold parade around in a fur loincloth (!) - in the DESERT no less - to show off his muscles.
