Just re-watched this movie after not having seen it since it first came out on VHS. One thing I didn't notice 20 years ago that caught my attention this time: the dancing woman in the Bishop's garden. Amazon video refers to her as "the Bishop's woman." She's wearing a dress with fabric wings and the Bishop appears to be feeding her as she's dancing. Was he play acting, pretending that the woman was Isabeau in hawk form?
I knew this guy was a creep, but that scene really threw me for a loop. -

Yep. The feathers on her dress make it clear that he was fantasizing about her being Isabeau. I've heard of furry fans, but this is ridiculous.
Fun fact:
