King Arthur: Then I should not have been born! Oh, Merlyn, I haven't got much time. Within an inch of sunlight, the arrows begin to fly. If I am to die in battle, please, please do not let me die bewildered!

camelot movie version, 12 August 2008
5/10
Author: camelotka from United States

to me, Richard Harris will always be king Arthur. he has the emotions in his voice that make you feel everything that he is singing about. i saw him many years ago live at the valley forge music fair in Penna. and he was fantastic - saw it twice actually! had to see it again before they left. Robert g. ( don't't know the spelling off-hand) actually played Lancelot in that live stage version. a much better role for him. Vanessa Redgrave played Guenevere if my memory serves me. i also love Julie Andrews! and when it come to my fair lady, i think she should have gotten the movie role - especially since Audrey (bless her heart) didn't sing!
