The Name Of The Rose Based on Umberto Eco's best-selling novel, THE NAME OF THE ROSE is a medieval whodunnit set in a 14th-century Italian monastery. Franciscan monk William of Baskerville (Sean Connery) and a young novice (Christian Slater) arrive for a conference to find that several monks have been brutally murdered. In his attempt to solve the crimes, bizarre murders attributed to the devil--he risks being burned for heresy by the holy inquisition. William must challenge the authority of the Catholic Church by eschewing religious fervor in favour of rational thought. The Mosquito Coast Embittered by the blighted landscape of the contemporary United States, inventor Allie Fox (Harrison Ford) moves his wife (Helen Mirren) and kids (River Phoenix, Jadrien Steele, Hilary Gordon and Rebecca Gordon) to the rain forest of Central America, where he plans to create a new civilization starting with his own nuclear family. Although they compliantly go along with Allie's scheme to build a free society, the other Foxes notice that Allie's single-minded obsession and driving egomania have turned him into a tyrannical fascist who demands total subservience from his broken brood.
