In the movie, John never listened to the Friar of the church. John’s relationship with the church in the movie, shows in great detail John’s accurate relationship with the church in the history books. It was truly Richard taking money from the people, not John. The only way to pay Richard’s ransom was to put heavy taxes on the people. He did go on a Crusade during his reign, but he got captured and John had to pay Richard’s ransom. King Richard was in fact the true king of England at this time. However, history tells people that John was not taxing the people to gain personal wealth and fortune. Seel explains that “Robin Hood films produced over the course of the past one hundred years have frequently presented John either as the principle villain or an effeminate coward.” 1 Because of films like this, people get an idea of John as a really poor king. In the book, King John: An Underrated King, Graham E. Disney portrayed John as an evil, greedy, gullible king.

He was never prepared to fight back and get rid of him, plus John would constantly complain and whine about his mother liking Richard more than him. Prince John was seen by the people as gullible and childish and who always fell for Robin Hood’s disguises and schemes. Robin Hood and his friend, a bear named Little John, would disguise themselves to get the money that Prince John collected and give it back to the people. He took so many taxes that the people of Nottingham could barely provide for themselves. Prince John was taking a lot of taxes from the people everyone in the town saw John as taking money from them for his own greed. England is now left under the rule of Richard’s brother, Prince John, a younger, cowardly lion. Nottingham is under the rule of King Richard, a full-grown lion who went on a Crusade away from England. By: Reagan Smith, Dexter Boldog, and Maggie Rocheĭisney’s projection of Robin Hood is about a sly fox named Robin Hood who steals from the rich to give to the poor in his town called Nottingham.
