I loved when I saw back in the Pleistocene (on TV, that the film is nothing less than 1967. Incredible), I've never seen and love me again . And it's funny because a prior i seem to have all the ballots to "take p'atrás" sixties and enthusiastic (it's the hippy movement time, shortly before May 68 and the Vietnam conflict gravitates pacifist idealism), colorful, musical (as we know, the favorite of John Kennedy, who dreamed of establishing his own Camelot) and unreal as a fairy tale.

stories about King Arthur and I have told many that I've seen enough of them, but despite being so "Raritan", this is definitely my favorite. The truth is that history does not matter much, as us know: painful triangle between Arthur, Guenevere and Lancelot and how that pollution adultery and ultimately destroys the whole kingdom, in addition to the characters themselves. To a myth, designed by nature to constant repetition, all that is left is the originality of the vision. How is reinterpreted as understood from a personal perspective or new so many times willcounted. Camelot choose to have a look idealistic, naive at first, "almost as much as its protagonists," as a willful commitment to believing that a perfect world you may just wish and strive é l. Camelot, the kingdom where the weather is set by decree and the wind swept the leaves, but only at night. Camelot, where the power is put at the service of good and uncontested champions share a round table to avoid places of privilege. Camelot is a paradise on earth, the dream of a king, the promise of a new dawn that we almost believe Guenevere and Arthur when we spread their happiness, their songs and smiles.Then appears Lancelot, the most perfect gentleman, so pure and exemplary, his total belief in himself (little "Humilitas" said the queen, a little evil) would be laughable if it were not entering ; able. And then ... then things go to waste.
What started laughing and naive idealism dyeing of melancholy just as he heads to the disaster and I cry like a cupcake in the emotional final scene before the battle .
There are many things I like in this this long and spectacular película of Joshua Logan, from the dressing room, alternating between lavish and naive , the staging , which can be sombríao light, tone, ranging from the vitality of the blues start to end and without complex alternating the spectacular and the intimate (it's a pretty dual film, now that I think) songs, of course, able to reach me no ear for music. Its always fresh. But above all, I like the characters as good people all. Like Arturo, as so & amp; about girls, ornaments, so generous and so helpless. I think delicious Guenevere, with the dot picardíay fair to perversity and so passionate and loyal in spite of everything. And I like Lancelot, which ran the risk of being a stereotype and yet I find it credible (and cuddly) in the heartbreaking struggle of which aspired to be the perfect gentleman and can not resist sin and betrayal . I also find a hit that the dominant view is that of Arthur, not the fans, sunk in his conviction, but the man and king betrayed, unable, despite all, to punish the friend and the wife he loves. And what amazes me most is how the story evolves from the vision & ovac to understand that good times are no longer possible and there is only pain and guilt. It's a bit long, but I encourage you to see it until the end because I think the whole sample interpretation
