相当精彩的神话故事,既有深不可测的神剑,又有复杂无常的人性。整部片子交织着亚瑟王的爱恨情仇。影片分为几个部分:亚瑟王的缘起,亚瑟王成为国王并走向强盛,亚瑟王走向衰败,亚瑟王消灭敌人重新强大国家。
亚瑟王出生。尤瑟爵士和康沃尔爵士大战,康沃尔向神剑屈服,尤瑟自此称王。尤瑟在康沃尔城堡见到康沃尔美貌的妻子伊格瑞恩,发誓一定要得到她。尤瑟王背信弃义,撕毁协议,和康沃尔再度开战。尤瑟王声东击西,队部主动攻击康沃尔城堡,并主动撤退,诱使康沃尔出城袭击
如此史诗般的电影,不明白为什么有这么多人不待见。三十年前的拍摄水平,能到这个程度已相当不易,如今即便重看星战,也能看出许多粗糙和幼稚。若抱着宽容的心态不去刻意挑剔那些特效布景和动作,在这电影里能看到很多想看的内容。那些尘封在过往里的历史和传说,那些纠葛缠绵的爱情故事,那些掩藏在盔甲与面罩下的激情与义气,无不让人心驰神往。
两个多小时很短,放不下太多东西,但比起克里夫欧文的版本,这电影还是比较正统的,基本上忠实于历史和传说,看完之后对亚瑟王和他的圆桌骑士就能有一个初步和笼统的了解。
PS,如果我是格温妮亚,我也会选择兰斯洛特,哈哈。
付完费才发现,该片拍于1981年,出于对中世纪由来已久的热爱,津津有味地看完,蓦然发觉亚瑟王和梅林的传说,就像魔戒,都发生在众神谢幕人王登场之际,只不过,魔戒中尚能看到上古的不同神族,在帮助人类消灭魔都之后,才翩然而去,而到了亚瑟王时,世间仅有巫师踪影,众神已成传说。
忽而又觉得,亚瑟王和他的圆桌骑士们对于忠诚、职责、诺言、信念的笃信和坚持,就像春秋战国时期的墨家、荆坷、专诸、聂政、要离等豪侠义士,他们可以一诺千金、生死相托、轻身践诺、舍生取义
The sorcerer Merlin (Nicol Williamson) retrieves Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake for Uther Pendragon (Gabriel Byrne), who secures a brief alliance with Gorlois, the Duke of Cornwall. Uther's lust for Cornwall's wife Igrayne (Katrine Boorman) soon ruins the truce, and Merlin agrees to help Uther to seduce Igrayne on the condition that he gives Merlin whatever results from his lust. Merlin transforms Uther into Cornwall's likeness with the Charm of Making. Cornwall's daughter Morgana senses her father's mortal injury during his assault on Uther's camp; and, while Igrayne is fooled by the disguise and Uther impregnates her, Morgana sees through it, watching Uther as Cornwall dies in battle. Nine months later, Merlin takes Uther's son Arthur. Uther pursues but is mortally wounded by Gorlois' knights. Uther thrusts Excalibur into a stone, crying that "None shall wield Excalibur, but me
