Merlin by Gustav Dore
Viviane and Merlin in a Forest by Gustave Dore

 

I'm always on the lookout for any movies about Merlin or Arthurian Legend.

I was very pleasantly surprised with the fairly recent television production
of "Merlin" starring Sam Neill, and I definitely recommend John
Boorman's "Excalibur" (1981). I guess I have to admit here that I actually
liked "First Knight" starring Richard Gere and Julia Ormond.

Of course, I was enchanted with the musical "Camelot" (1967) starring
Richard Harris and Vanessa Redgrave, but don't bother watching it on
television because they always cut so much out that it doesn't even make sense.
