Think of this film as usual meatloaf denotes a completely different surface. That it may please or not can be debated, but it certainly is not trivial. Certainly the construction of the narrative and "painterly" intentionally modeled a desire for simplicity almost childish, but then again it is the will, not of failure or worse superficiality. The call for a different expression is affected by the constant reference to subjects, symbols, ideologies, past medieval perhaps, but not random. The philosophical ideas are continuous and relentless. First of all, the relationship will - remember - truth, whose relationship permeates and unites the characters and the values ​​they embody. A theme that Malory, of which Boorman is here an interpreter, provides an answer, controversial and far from modern thinking, but authentic and deeply felt.
