Comment/Synopsis

A film adaptation of the the popular stage musical. Whilst most of Lerner and Loewe's work remains in the film the main problem comes with the directionand some of the casting. Richard Harris and Franco Nero are not really convincing as Arthur and Lacelot, though Vanessa Redgrave is good as Guenevere.
