Dungeons and Dragons Honor Among Thieves
The new film Dungeons and Dragons Honor Among Thieves is not the first big screen adaptation of the long popular role playing game. This new version, directed by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daily takes a different and more playful approach to the material. Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Hugh Grant, Rije Jean-Page and others play a motley crew of thieves, warriors, wizards, druids and other vagabonds in the quasi medieval universe of D&D. The concept of this scene that you're going to hear a clip from is that one of the magical devices that this crew has is an amulet.
