The idiocy of script writers spoiled the first time I saw Ladyhawke. When
there was that riddle about "a day that is not a day, a night that is not a
night", I yawned and thought "solar eclipse". But then they showed an
almost-full moon, three days before that event, and I suddenly thought that
it should be something else - maybe the SN 1054, the Crab Supernova. Of
course, they decided to ignore science and put a trivial solar eclipse :-/
