Merlin's entrance 1:20 to 1:38'ish is for myself after 40 years of film viewing the greatest entrance of a character in a movie.

I love how Boorman took the overall myth of King Arthur and created a single epic that showed how our flaws as men always bring down Camelot, without destroying the idea of hope at all. Hope is retained and saved in the end but it’s not a Disney ending. Brilliant

@countdowntorevolution99866 ай бұрын
one of the subtleties I love about this scene is that when you first see Merlin in close up he's scowling with his mouth open, and you assume he's appalled by the violence. then he speaks and it's clear he was mainly just trying to work out where Uther was 😆😆

Let me tell you a personal story about Wagner; my late dad was a prolific conductor in the military.. one time curator of the Royal marine school of music.. He played Gotterdammerrung many times. He taught me to conduct. To play drums and read music... He passed away in.2019. I assembled a team of musicians to perform a tribute for him... Im not half the conductor he was .. but this was the finale of said concert...❤❤❤❤

John Boorman is a genius for his nuances of Wagnerian music ... The funeral march is used as a background peice throughout the movie...And ..it...is.... wonderful...

I watched this film so many times on my parents laser disc player that the laserdisc is worn out from being overplayed. The cinematography , soundtrack , acting and plot.... Perfection.

Is it a coincidence the best film about the Arthurian Legend fully embraced the myth instead of trying to make the story "modern" or "edgy"? I think not .
