Review of 1492: Conquest of Paradise (1992) by Roger Ebert for Chicago Sun-Times — 20 Sep 2002
In its own way and up to a certain point, 1492 is a satisfactory film. Depardieu lends it gravity, the supporting performances are convincing, the locations are realistic, and we are inspired to reflect that it did indeed take a certain nerve to sail off into nowhere just because an orange was round.
