Ridley Scott's theatrical release of Kingdom of Heaven was received poorly by critics and audiences alike. It was his director's cut, released later the same year, that had us all praising the film as one of his best. Jeff is joined by author, podcaster, and professor Van Allen Plexico for a discussion about the extended version of the film, and why it's among Ridley Scott's best work!
