Ladyhawke

In medieval France, knight and lady fair both run afoul of evil-bishop. Through the auspices of bishop's confessor, they're placed under a curse. During the night, knight takes the form of a wolf, while lady assumes the form of a hawk by day. The two lovers can only meet one another as humans at dawn and dusk. The only mortal in a position to rescue them from their fate is nebbishy pickpocket, who acts as liaison between the lovers. With the help of the guilt-ridden -and a convenient solar eclipse- endeavors to set things aright.
