Movie Haiku:All-star epic prequel describes how Robin (Crowe) became an outlaw hiding out in Sherwood Forest. Jan enjoyed the anthropological details of rural village life in 13th century Britain (altho sending Blanchett's helmeted Marion into the seaside battle was a bit much). Rich thought the Magna Carta stuff was way too heavy-handed & preachy.
