EXCALIBUR (john boorman, 1981)

as cheesy and over the top as this here poster, but nevertheless great

one thing about rewatching this after multiple viewings of monty python and the holy grail is that they both merge in my mind and im not sure if a dude is gonna show up clapping with coconuts or if lancelot is gonna say ‘tis but a fleshwound when arthur duels him. but it’s alright, i can tell them apart (sometimes). this adds a good measure of ironic detachment and contributes to the enjoyment.

the loud-ass soundtrack is a match to the nearly absurd declamatory acting style of this film, and it’s awesome. i think this movie was the first time i heard carmina burana.

it’s all very loud and grandiose. tons of clatter.
