Did You Know?
Trivia | At the beginning, Sir Wilfred of Ivanhoe is looking for King Richard I by singing until he finds the King. This is historically accurate, with the exception that the singer was a minstrel called Blondel. When Leopold of Austria captured King Richard I, Blondel went around to all of the castles singing King Richard's favorite song. (One story had it that King Richard actually co-wrote the song.) When he heard King Richard join in the chorus, he went home and told the Normans where King Richard was. See more » |
Goofs | Characters are shown eating turkey during the feast in Ivanhoe's father's hall. Turkeys are indigenous to North America and were not known in England in the 12th century. See more » |
