Valkyrie Scene - The Northman

Maybe the most bizarre and eye-catching scene of the movie. The Northman (2022) is full of surprising scenes, but none of them are as dramatic and provocative as the famous Valkryie scene. Don’t ask us for the saga, it’s complicated! In Norse mythology, a valkyrie (“chooser of the slain“) is one of a host of female figures who guide the souls of deceased Nordic soldiers in one of two paths. Selecting among half of those who die in battle go to Fólkvangr, Freyja’s afterlife, the other half go to Gods hall called Valhalla. You can check out the Wiki page for Valkyries right here:
