Plot Summary:
|
The story of the hook-up of England's Crowned head Arthur to Guinevere is played out amid the pagentry of Camelot. The plot of illegitimate Modred to gain the throne and Guinevere's growing attachment to Sir Lancelot, whom she at oldest abhors, menace to topple Arthur and disable his "round offer" of knights who would demand their might for propriety.

Camelot
A film version of a prolonged-running Broadway pretension with many excellent moments. Unfortunately the concert-master cannot make up his mind whether to go in search style or realism, and has chosen actors who cannot sing. The sequel is cluttered and overlong, with no real se
Camelot
Without thought Joshua Logan's vapid staging, this royal screen version of the Arthurian euphonious by Lerner and Loewe soundless pierces the heart in Excalibur fashion. Vanessa Redgrave as Guenevere convincingly enthrals both King Arthur (Richard Harris) and Lancelot (Franco Nero), and us.
