Tirant lo Blanc is a romance written () by Joanot Martorell , isthe most famous chivalric romance in the Valencian language . It is oneof the best known medieval works of Spanish literature and it tells thestory of a medieval knight Tirant from Brittany who has a series ofadventures across Europe in his quest. He joins in knightlycompetitions in England and France until the Emperor of the ByzantineEmpire asks him to help in the war against the Ottoman Turks, anIslamic tribe of invaders threatening Constantinople, the capital andseat of the Empire. Tirant accepts and is made Megaduke of theByzantine Empire and the captain of an army . He defeats the Turkishinvaders and saves the Empire from destruction. Afterwards, he fightsthe Turks in many regions of the eastern Mediterranean and northAfrica, but he dies just before he can marry the pretty heiress of theByzantine Empire. The loss of Constantinople by Constantine XII to theOttoman Empire in was considered at the time to be a major blow toChristian Europe. Miguel de Cervantes y Saavedra, author of the greatSpanish classic "Don Quixote", thought very highly of "Tirant", incontrast to his unfavorable opinion of many other books of chivalry .In writing his novel, Martorell perhaps rewrote history to fit what hewanted it to be , which in a way makes it a precursor of thepresent-day genre of alternate history.

Tirant le Blanc was the popular "novel" of Joanot Martorell ( ), started a couple of years after Constantinople downfall in , and published after his death in Martorell was on the service of the Kingdom of Aragon, and he traveled around England, Naples and Portugal.- The novel is on a parallel world, where Constantinople still Christian, and is vaguely based on the life of Roger de Flor ()a German gentleman of obscures origins, at the service of the Aragon Crown and Catalonian Company, that stopped Muslim advance over Constantinople for years.-
The novel is satirical and influence later the much more famous Don Quixote de la Mancha.-
Concerns more about the sexual advances of Tirant and his friends over Byzantium Empire High noble ladies, specially Princess Carmasina, the Emperor's daughter and object of affection of Tirant.
After the death of the male princes, the Constantinople Emperor (Giancarlo Giannini) accept foreign warriors (Tirant and his friends) for the defense of the Byzantium Empire. He also receives the marriage proposal of the Great Turk, of marrying the sultan with the emperor's only daughter Carmesina (Esther Nubiola).
But the Empire is in decadence ruled by anachronism laws and by two ladies the Placid Widow (a fantastic Victoria Abril) who supports Carmesina marriage with the Turk and Pleasure (Leonor Watling in her finest role) that support instead Carmesina with Tirant marriage.
Poor and virtuoso Princess Carmesina suffer the intrigue of pleasure and guilty of these two ladies.
But Tirant isn't as sex god, and failed in every sex assault, suffering more injuries in love than in battle, unlike his friends Diafebus (Charlie Cox) with lady Estefania (a wonderful Ingrid Rubio) and the even younger Hipolito (Sid Mitchell) with the Empress herself (a still sexy Jane Asher).-
So the story centers more in bedtime stories than in battles. Aranda shows again a lot of sensual flesh, and sumptuous dresses, the movie is funny and have sensual and erotic's scenes, while the ladies are great like most of the Aranda's film but unfortunately failed miserably in the battles and specially in the leading man the totally unknown Casper Zafer. Gianinni is also underused-
The movie itself was a big flop in Spain. The money came from a co-fund with England. Because of that half of the cast is English and the other Spanish.
Should be a better and more successful if the movie had at least Viggo Mortenssen in the leading role. Or at least a more charismatic and more household English actor. Even Charlie Cox, could be a more interesting Tirant

Magnificent costumes, dramatic locations, stirring music and elaboratesets for a tale of bravery and treachery, sex romps and romance amongthe lost splendours of Byzantium, under attack from the Turks in thes.
The handsome and gallant knight Tirant (Casper Zafer), placed in chargeof the armies of the Emperor (Giancarlo Giannini), hopes also to winhis lovely daughter Carmesina (Esther Nubiola), who is willing intheory but hesitant in practice. The ladies of the court are full ofwiles, both political and sexual, and a faction want to give her to theTurkish sultan (Rafael Amargo).
So the scene is set for battles under arms, battles of plot andcounter-plot and many amorous battles around and in beds, involvinglots of nudity and lively sex. Even the sardonic Empress (Jane Asher,who must have been pushing pension age but still looks lovely) stripsoff and seduces a handsome young squire (Sid Mitchell), muttering toher mirror that he could be her grandson.
Why isn't everybody entranced by the lush spectacle and adventurousstory? I think the main reason is that to the ears of English speakersboth the actual dialogue and the delivery of the dubbed speech oftendoes not convince. Sometimes it is mock-medieval, which is verydangerous to write unless one's touch is perfect, and sometimes justuninspired. Ironically, it might work better in Spanish with subtitles.
