king Arthur

well i just watched the King Arthur again
and I love it.
Not just the new take on the king arthur legend and the able cast
but the colors, the costumes, the landscapes, the horses...
i am no king arthur scholar but i have always been enamored with the
chivalric ideals.
it is great to see the knights in shinning armor and Merlin conjuring up the
mists and casting spells, and the young Arthur pulling Excalibor out of the stone
but i went into this movie with an open mind.
i could see where the elements of the now Arthurian themes may have had
their beginnings.
the love triangle was never my favorite part of the Arthurian legends,
so the subtle treatment of it here did not bother me at all.
i love the knights. i love the idea that they were just regular guys
in effect, drafted into military service.
whatever shortcomings this movie may have, i found heart and soul in it.
