Upon arriving, Beowulf becomes attracted to Hrothgar's wife Queen <a href="/wiki/Wealtheow" class="mw-redirect" title="Wealtheow">Wealtheow</a>. The men celebrate in Heorot to lure Grendel out while Beowulf strips <a href="/wiki/Nudity_in_combat" title="Nudity in combat">naked</a> and relaxes before Grendel arrives to ensure a fair and equal fight. During the fight, Beowulf discovers that Grendel has <a href="/wiki/Hyperacusis" title="Hyperacusis">hypersensitive hearing</a> and ruptures the creature's eardrum. Grendel shrinks in size and manages to escape only after Beowulf severs his arm, mortally wounding him. In thanks for freeing his kingdom from the monster, Hrothgar gives Beowulf his golden drinking horn, which commemorates Hrothgar's victory over the mighty dragon <a href="/wiki/Fafnir" class="mw-redirect" title="Fafnir">Fafnir</a>. In his cave, <a href="/wiki/Grendel%27s_mother" title="Grendel's mother">Grendel's mother</a> swears revenge over his corpse. She travels to Heorot and slaughters Beowulf's men in the night. Hrothgar tells both Beowulf and Wiglaf that Grendel's mother is the last of the <a href="/wiki/Water_spirit" title="Water spirit">Water Demons</a>. Hrothgar's adviser, <a href="/wiki/Unfer%C3%B0" title="Unferð">Unferth</a>, offers Beowulf his sword <a href="/wiki/Hrunting" title="Hrunting">Hrunting</a> to slay Grendel's mother. Beowulf and Wiglaf then travel to the demon's cave, where Beowulf enters alone and encounters the demon, who takes the form of a beautiful, gold-covered naked woman. He tries to kill her with Hrunting but fails due to her magic. Instead, she seduces him with promises to make him king in exchange for the drinking horn and a son to replace Grendel, which Beowulf agrees to when they both kiss. Afterwards, Beowulf returns to Heorot with Grendel's head and announces he has killed Grendel's mother. He recounts embellished stories of a fight, claiming he left the sword impaled in the body of Grendel's mother and lost the golden drinking horn in the battle. Hrothgar speaks to Beowulf privately, and asks if he truly killed Grendel's mother. Despite Beowulf's boasting and calling Grendel's mother a <a href="/wiki/Hag" title="Hag">hag</a>, Hrothgar is not fooled. Hrothgar says all that matters is that Grendel is dead and the curse of Grendel's mother is no longer his to bear. He indirectly reveals that he had also been seduced by the demon, and Grendel was the result of their tryst. Beowulf is shocked upon realizing Hrothgar is Grendel's father and that the curse has now been passed on to him after his affair with the demon. Hrothgar declares Beowulf to be king upon his death and he commits suicide by jumping from the castle parapet onto the beach below. Grendel's mother appears as a gold light in the surf and drags Hrothgar's corpse into the sea as the crowd kneels to the newly crowned King Beowulf, fulfilling their bargain. Fifty years later, the elderly Beowulf is the estranged husband of Wealtheow, who has converted to Christianity. Beowulf has a mistress, Ursula, but his tryst with Grendel's mother has left him sterile to both his wife and mistress. On the anniversary of Beowulf's victory against Grendel, Unferth returns the golden drinking horn, which his slave had found on the moors. That night, a nearby village is destroyed by a <a href="/wiki/The_dragon_(Beowulf)" title="The dragon (Beowulf)">dragon</a>, which then transforms into a golden figure, who orders Unferth to give a message to King Beowulf, the dragon's father: the sins of the father have returned to him (referencing the <a href="/wiki/Faustian_bargain" class="mw-redirect" title="Faustian bargain">Faustian bargain</a> curse cycle of Grendel's mother that he agreed to). Afterwards, Beowulf privately confesses to Wealtheow about his affair with Grendel's mother and they reconcile. Beowulf and Wiglaf go to the cave once again, and Beowulf enters alone. When Grendel's mother appears, Beowulf throws her the golden horn, but she refuses it and the dragon attacks Beowulf's castle, threatening Wealtheow and Ursula. Despite his age, Beowulf goes to great lengths to stop the dragon and break the curse. Beowulf is mortally wounded in the struggle, but manages to kill the dragon by ripping its heart out, and he and the creature tumble to the rocky beach below the castle. The dragon transforms into its golden humanoid form, before being washed out to sea. Before he dies, Beowulf tries to tell Wiglaf the truth about his affair with Grendel's mother and acknowledge his son, but Wiglaf insists on keeping his legacy intact. As the new king, Wiglaf gives Beowulf a <a href="/wiki/Norse_funeral" title="Norse funeral">Norse funeral</a>. Wiglaf finds the golden horn in the sand and sees Grendel's mother give Beowulf a final kiss as his burning ship sinks into the sea. Grendel's mother slowly rises to the water's surface and seductively beckons Wiglaf towards her. He wades into the sea, while holding the golden drinking horn, before pausing halfway in the surf. They both stare at each other, with Grendel's mother seductively waiting and Wiglaf clearly tempted but showing resistance. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Beowulf_(2007_film)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast">edit</a>]</div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Ray_Winstone" title="Ray Winstone">Ray Winstone</a> as <a href="/wiki/Beowulf_(hero)" title="Beowulf (hero)">Beowulf</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Title_character" title="Title character">title character</a>.

I didn't have any of that baggage to bring with me."<a href="#cite_note-bbc-3">[3]</a> Winstone enjoyed working with motion-capture, stating that "You were allowed to go, like theater, where you carry a scene on and you become engrossed within the scene. I loved the speed of it. There was no time to sit around. You actually cracked on with a scene and your energy levels were kept up. There was no time to actually sit around and lose your concentration. So, for me, I actually really, really enjoyed this experience." Unlike some of his castmates, Winstone's animated counterpart bears little resemblance to the actor who was in his early 50s when he filmed the role; Winstone noted that his computer-generated counterpart resembled himself at the age of eighteen, although the filmmakers did not have a photo for reference.<a href="#cite_note-cast-4">[4]</a> Winstone also played a dwarf performer, and the "Golden Man"/Dragon.<a href="#cite_note-bbc-3">[3]</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Crispin_Glover" title="Crispin Glover">Crispin Glover</a> and <a href="/wiki/Angelina_Jolie" title="Angelina Jolie">Angelina Jolie</a> as <a href="/wiki/Grendel" title="Grendel">Grendel</a> and <a href="/wiki/Grendel%27s_mother" title="Grendel's mother">his mother</a>, the antagonists.

The actress recounted her first impression of her character's appearance by saying "... I was told I was going to be a lizard. Then I was brought into a room with Bob, and a bunch of pictures and examples, and he showed me this picture of a woman half painted gold, and then a lizard. And, I've got kids and I thought 'That's great. That's so bizarre. I'm going to be this crazy reptilian person and creature.'" Jolie filmed her role over two days when she was three months pregnant.

Hopkins noted in an interview that since Zemeckis is an American, he was not certain what accent Hopkins should use for the role of Hrothgar. Hopkins told him, "Well, <a href="/wiki/Welsh_English" title="Welsh English">Welsh</a> would be my closest because that's where I come from." It was also his first time working with motion-capture technology. Hopkins noted, "I didn't know what was expected. It was explained to me, I'm not stupid, but I still don't get the idea of how it works. I have no idea [...] you don't have sets, so it is like being in a <a href="/wiki/Brecht" class="mw-redirect" title="Brecht">Brecht</a> play, you know, with just bare bones and you have nothing else." When asked if he had to read the original poem of Beowulf in school, Hopkins replied: "No, I was hopeless at school. I couldn't read anything. I mean I could read, but I was so inattentive. I was one of those poor kids, you know, who was just very slow, didn't know what they were talking about... So I tried to get around to reading Beowulf just before I did this movie, and it was a good modern translation.

Malkovich became involved in the project because one of his friends, who had worked with Zemeckis, "spoke very highly of him. I had always found him a very interesting and innovative filmmaker. I liked the script very much and I liked the group involved and the process interested me a great deal also." He found the experience of working with motion capture to be similar to his experiences working in the theater. He also found the process intriguing: "Say you do a normal day of filmmaking. Sometimes that's 1/8 of a page, sometimes it's 3/8th of a page, normally let's say it's 2½ pages, maybe 3. Now it's probably a little more than it used to be but not always. So you may be acting for a total of 20 minutes a day. In this, you act the entire day all the time except for the tiny amount of time it takes them to sort of coordinate the computer information, let's say, and make sure that the computers are reading the data and that you're transmitting the data. It interests me on that level because I'm a professional actor so I'd just as soon act as sit around." Malkovich also recalled that he studied the original poem in high school, and that "I think we got smacked if we couldn't recite a certain number of stanzas. It was in the Old English class and I think my rendition was exemplary."<a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Brendan_Gleeson" title="Brendan Gleeson">Brendan Gleeson</a> as <a href="/wiki/Wiglaf" title="Wiglaf">Wiglaf</a>, Beowulf's <a href="/wiki/Lieutenant" title="Lieutenant">lieutenant</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Robin_Wright" title="Robin Wright">Robin Wright</a> as <a href="/wiki/Wealhtheow" title="Wealhtheow">Queen Wealtheow</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Alison_Lohman" title="Alison Lohman">Alison Lohman</a> as Ursula, Beowulf's concubine when he is an old king</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Costas_Mandylor" title="Costas Mandylor">Costas Mandylor</a> as Hondshew</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Sebastian_Roch%C3%A9" title="Sebastian Roché">Sebastian Roche</a> as Wulfgar</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Greg_Ellis_(actor)" title="Greg Ellis (actor)">Greg Ellis</a> as <a href="/wiki/Wermund" title="Wermund">Garmund</a></li> <li>Tyler Steelman as Young Cain, Unferth's disabled slave</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Dominic_Keating" title="Dominic Keating">Dominic Keating</a> as Adult Cain</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Rik_Young" title="Rik Young">Rik Young</a> as <a href="/wiki/Eofor" title="Eofor">Eofor</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Charlotte_Salt" title="Charlotte Salt">Charlotte Salt</a> as Estrith</li> <li>Leslie Harter Zemeckis as <a href="/wiki/Yrsa" title="Yrsa">Yrsa</a></li> <li>Fredrik Hiller as <a href="/wiki/Finn_(Frisian)" title="Finn (Frisian)">Finn of Frisia</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Beowulf_(2007_film)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Production">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Development">Development</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Beowulf_(2007_film)&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Development">edit</a>]</div> Author <a href="/wiki/Neil_Gaiman" title="Neil Gaiman">Neil Gaiman</a> and screenwriter <a href="/wiki/Roger_Avary" title="Roger Avary">Roger Avary</a> wrote a screen adaptation of Beowulf in May 1997 (they had met while working on a film adaptation of Gaiman's <a href="/wiki/The_Sandman_(comic_book)" title="The Sandman (comic book)">The Sandman</a> in 1996 before <a href="/wiki/Warner_Bros." title="Warner Bros.">Warner Bros.</a> canceled it).<a href="#cite_note-empire-2">[2]</a><a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a> The script had been optioned by <a href="/wiki/ImageMovers" title="ImageMovers">ImageMovers</a> in the same year and set up at <a href="/wiki/DreamWorks_Pictures" title="DreamWorks Pictures">DreamWorks</a> with Avary slated to direct and <a href="/wiki/Robert_Zemeckis" title="Robert Zemeckis">Robert Zemeckis</a> producing.

Animation supervisor Kenn MacDonald explained that Zemeckis used motion capture because "Even though it feels like live-action, there were a lot of shots where Bob cut loose. Amazing shots. Impossible with live-action actors. This method of filmmaking gives him freedom and complete control. He doesn't have to worry about lighting. The actors don't have to hit marks. They don't have to know where the camera is. It's pure performance." A 25 × 35-foot stage was built, and it used 244 Vicon MX40 cameras. Actors on set wore seventy eight body markers. The cameras recorded real-time footage of the performances, shots which Zemeckis reviewed. The director then used a virtual-camera to choose camera angles from the footage which was edited together. Two teams of animators worked on the film, with one group working on replicating the facial performances, the other working on body movement. The animators said they worked very closely on replicating the human characters, but the character of <a href="/wiki/Grendel" title="Grendel">Grendel</a> had to be almost reworked, because he is a monster, not human.<a href="#cite_note-cgsociety-12">[12]</a> Over 450 graphic designers were chosen for the project, the largest team ever assembled for a <a href="/wiki/Sony_Pictures_Imageworks" title="Sony Pictures Imageworks">Sony Pictures Imageworks</a>-produced movie as of 2007.<a href="#cite_note-VFXFX-11">[11]</a> Designers at Imageworks generated new animation tools for facial, body and cloth design especially for the movie, and elements of <a href="/wiki/Key_frame" title="Key frame">keyframe animation</a> were incorporated into the film in order to capture the facial expressions of the actors and actresses.<a href="#cite_note-VFXFX-11">[11]</a> The mead hall battle scene near the beginning of the film, among others, required numerous props that served as additional markers; these markers allowed for a more accurate manifestation of a battlefield setting as the battle progressed.<a href="#cite_note-VFXFX-11">[11]</a> However, the data being collected by the markers slowed down the studios' computer equipment and five months were spent developing a new save/load system that would increase the efficiency of the studios' resources.<a href="#cite_note-VFXFX-11">[11]</a> To aid in the process of rendering the massive quantities of information, the development team used <a href="/wiki/Cache_(computing)" title="Cache (computing)">cached</a> data.

Beowulf is generally considered to be a <a href="/wiki/Pagan" class="mw-redirect" title="Pagan">pagan</a> tale written down by <a href="/wiki/Christianity" title="Christianity">Christian</a> monks, which for Zemeckis and Avary represented the possibility that the original story had been tampered with in order to better fit Christian sensibilities.<a href="#cite_note-Clark-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-After-19">[19]</a> They found this to be a reasonable explanation for critical elements to the story that are absent from the poem, such as the identity of Grendel's father, why he abstains from attacking Hrothgar, and the lack of proof that Grendel's mother had been slain.<a href="#cite_note-Clark-16">[16]</a> In order to restore those points, they offered their own interpretation for motivations behind Grendel's behavior and for what happened in the cave of Grendel's mother, justifying it by arguing that Beowulf acts as an <a href="/wiki/Unreliable_narrator" title="Unreliable narrator">unreliable narrator</a> in the portion of the poem in which he describes his battle with Grendel's mother.<a href="#cite_note-20">[20]</a> Avary said their goal was "to remain truer to the letter of the epic but to read between the lines and find greater truths that had been explored before",<a href="#cite_note-Gaming-21">[21]</a> while Gaiman commented, "the glory of Beowulf is that you are allowed to retell it" due to the presence of many other adaptations that offered their own take on it.<a href="#cite_note-Clark-16">[16]</a> These choices also helped them to better connect the third act to the second of their screenplay, which is divided in the poem by a 50-year gap.<a href="#cite_note-Chud-18">[18]</a> Some of the changes made by the film as noted by scholars include: <ul><li>The portrayal of Beowulf as a flawed man</li> <li>The portrayal of Hrothgar as a womanizing alcoholic</li> <li>The portrayal of Unferth as a Christian</li> <li>The portrayal of Grendel as a sickly-looking and child-like creature (somewhat similar to Tolkien's <a href="/wiki/Gollum" title="Gollum">Gollum</a> character), rather than a savage demon-monster</li> <li>Beowulf's funeral</li> <li>The portrayal of Grendel's mother as a beautiful seductress, more of a <a href="/wiki/Succubus" title="Succubus">succubus</a> rather, who bears Grendel as Hrothgar's child and the dragon as Beowulf's child (this is also the case in the plot of the <a href="/wiki/Beowulf_(1999_film)" title="Beowulf (1999 film)">1999 film Beowulf</a>, with the exception that the dragon is entirely absent there)<a href="#cite_note-After-19">[19]</a></li> <li>The fact that Beowulf becomes ruler of Denmark instead of his native <a href="/wiki/Geatland" class="mw-redirect" title="Geatland">Geatland</a><a href="#cite_note-22">[22]</a><a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a><a href="#cite_note-24">[24]</a></li></ul> This is not the first time that the theme of a relationship between Beowulf and Grendel's mother was explored by Gaiman. In his 1998 collection of short stories, <a href="/wiki/Smoke_and_Mirrors_(Gaiman_book)" title="Smoke and Mirrors (Gaiman book)">Smoke and Mirrors</a>, the poem Bay Wolf is a retelling of Beowulf in a modern-day setting.

This is metaphorized by Beowulf being seduced in her <a href="/wiki/Womb" class="mw-redirect" title="Womb">womb</a>-like cave, where his sword strike magically fails at harming her body.<a href="#cite_note-Haydock-25">[25]</a> After copulating with Grendel's mother, both Hrothgar and Beowulf find themselves unable to maintain fulfilling <a href="/wiki/Sexual_relationship" class="mw-redirect" title="Sexual relationship">sexual relationships</a> with Wealtheow or other women, becoming aged, bitter and even feminized in their impotency.<a href="#cite_note-Haydock-25">[25]</a><a href="#cite_note-Fugel-26">[26]</a> In turn, Grendel's mother remains immortal and young, and through her offspring she proves capable to wield herself the robbed phallus. Grendel and the dragon act as extensions of her will, "mindless embodiments of feminine aggressiveness" who represent their fathers' emasculation and loss of <a href="/wiki/Patriarchal" class="mw-redirect" title="Patriarchal">patriarchal</a> power.<a href="#cite_note-Clark-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-Haydock-25">[25]</a><a href="#cite_note-Fugel-26">[26]</a> Later Beowulf claims to have vanquished the mother, having supposedly rendered her dead with his sword in her cave, but the falsity of this only translates as a <a href="/wiki/Wishful_thinking" title="Wishful thinking">wishful</a>, pretended triumph of the male over the female. His defeat to her, as well as his bargain for prestige and glory, transmits that male power "not only comes from the feminine, but remains eternally subject to it".<a href="#cite_note-Clark-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-After-19">[19]</a><a href="#cite_note-Fugel-26">[26]</a> However, authors have noted that he ultimately breaks the <a href="/wiki/Oedipus_complex" title="Oedipus complex">Oedipian triangle</a> caused by his destructive son, as he manages to kill the dragon and seemingly thwart the cycle at the cost of his life.

What man doesn't get involved with Angelina Jolie?' Wheeler asks. 'It's a great cop-out on a great poem.' ... 'For me, the sad thing is the movie returns to... a view of the horror of woman, the monstrous female who will kill off the male,' Wheeler says. 'It seems to me you could do so much better now. And the story of Beowulf is so much more powerful.'"<a href="#cite_note-55">[55]</a> Other commentators pointed to the theories elucidated in John Grigsby's work Beowulf and Grendel, where Grendel's mother was linked with the ancient Germanic fertility goddess <a href="/wiki/Nerthus" title="Nerthus">Nerthus</a>.<a href="#cite_note-56">[56]</a> However, there were also positive academic reviews. Philosophy professor <a href="/wiki/Stephen_T._Asma" title="Stephen T. Asma">Stephen T. Asma</a> argued that "Zemeckis's more tender-minded film version suggests that the people who cast out Grendel are the real monsters. The monster, according to this charity paradigm, is just misunderstood rather than evil (similar to the version presented in <a href="/wiki/John_Gardner_(American_writer)" title="John Gardner (American writer)">John Gardner</a>'s novel <a href="/wiki/Grendel_(novel)" title="Grendel (novel)">Grendel</a>). The blame for Grendel's violence is shifted to the humans, who sinned against him earlier and brought the vengeance upon themselves. The only real monsters, in this tradition, are pride and prejudice. In the film, Grendel is even visually altered after his injury to look like an innocent, albeit scaly, little child. In the original Beowulf, the monsters are outcasts because they're bad (just as <a href="/wiki/Cain_and_Abel" title="Cain and Abel">Cain</a>, their progenitor, was outcast because he killed his brother), but in the film Beowulf the monsters are bad because they're outcasts [...] Contrary to the original Beowulf, the new film wants us to understand and humanize our monsters."<a href="#cite_note-chronicle-57">[57]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="See_also">See also</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Beowulf_(2007_film)&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: See also">edit</a>]</div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Lists_of_historical_films" title="Lists of historical films">Lists of historical films</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Late_antiquity" title="Late antiquity">Late antiquity</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Germanic_Heroic_Age" title="Germanic Heroic Age">Germanic Heroic Age</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Beowulf_(2007_film)&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: References">edit</a>]</div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap mw-references-columns"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-figures-1">^ <a href="#cite_ref-figures_1-0">a</a> <a href="#cite_ref-figures_1-1">b</a> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt0442933/?ref_=bo_se_r_1">"Beowulf"</a>. <a href="/wiki/Box_Office_Mojo" title="Box Office Mojo">Box Office Mojo</a>. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20211111083655/https://www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt0442933/?ref_=bo_se_r_1">Archived</a> from the original on November 11, 2021.
