Corrected entry: The inquisitor Bernardo Gui is portrayed in a more sinister light here than he really seemed to be: a) he was a more 'moderate' inquisitor (of 900 sentences, most were imprisonment and only 42 deaths); b) he did not die by the hands of a violent mob in Italy; he passed away peacefully in a Lauroux abbey in 1331.

Correction: The film is not intended to be a realistic portrayal of history and it can therefore do whatever it likes with the characters portrayed - it is artistic license.
