1492: Conquest of Paradise is a 1992 epic historical drama film directed by Ridley Scott and written by Roselyne Bosch. It stars Gérard Depardieu, Armand Assante, and Sigourney Weaver, and portrays the travels to the New World by the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus and the effect this had on Indigenous peoples. The film was released to celebrate the 500th anniversary of Columbus's voyage. It debuted less than two months after John Glen's film Christopher Columbus: The Discovery, often leading to confusion between the two. The film received mixed to negative reviews, with particular criticism aimed at its historical inaccuracy and dramatic quality, and was a box-office bomb in the United States.
