Rydal (Oscar Isaac):
Take a look at that view.
Spectacular, isn't it?
It was here, on the Acropolis hill,
that some believe Theseus's father,
King Aegeus, looked out to sea,
waiting for his son to return.
See, Theseus had promised his father
that if he defeated the Minotaur,
he'd hoist a white sail on his ship
as a tribute
but he was so excited to get back home
he forgot and he flew the same
black sail that he set out with.
Well, thinking his son was dead,
the heartbroken king
flung himself onto the rocks below,
another victim of the cruel tricks
gods play on men.

Brother William of Baskerville (Sean Connery), plays a Franciscan who has come to a Benedictine monastery in Italy for a debate among Benedictines, Franciscans and Papal delegates as to whether the clergy should take vows of poverty or not.

Battlefield Earth (2000)
Πεδίο Μάχης: Γη
(imdb, wiki)
Plot:
It is the year 3000. The race of Psychlos has conquered the earth.
Humans survive in scattered bands, living like actors auditioning for the sequel to "Quest for Fire."
Soon they leave the wilderness and prowl through the ruins of theme parks and the city of Denver. The ruins have held up well after 1,000 years. (Library books are dusty but readable and a flight simulator still works, although where it gets the electricity is a mystery.)
The hero, named Jonnie Goodboy Tyler (Barry Pepper), is a smart human
who gets smarter, thanks to a Pyschlo gizmo that zaps his eyeballs with knowledge.
He learns Euclidean geometry (why would an alien program call it Euclidean geometry?) and how to fly a jet and proves to be a quick learner for a caveman.
The villains are two Psychlos named Terl (John Travolta) and Ker (Forest Whitaker).
Dialogues:
Carlo (Kim Coates):
This is the masters’ language.
Jonnie Goodboy Tyler (Barry Pepper):
No, no, this is mathematics, the unifying language of the entire universe. Look, this symbol is called the triangle. If all its sides are equal, then these three angles must also be equal.
Carlo (Kim Coates):
Equal to what?
Jonnie Goodboy Tyler (Barry Pepper):

Jonathan Trager (John Cusack):
Here's the story.
A long time ago in Ethiopia, there was this queen named Cassiopeia,
who taught she was the most beautiful woman in the entire world,
and there wasn't anybody in the kingdom who wasn't offended
by this woman's relentless vanity.
And then one day, she really screwed up and offended the gods.
I don't remember what she did and I don't remember who she offended.
But it was bad.
She crossed the line.
But anyway, Poseidon, the sea god,
punished Cassiopeia by placing her in the heavens upside down in her throne, stuck for eternity with her skirt around her shoulders and all the blood rushing to her head.
And now she's just a constellation in the sky, a bunch of English freckles in the shape of a throne.
So she made one tragic mistake.
