"I have often thought that in the hereafter of our lives, when I owe no more to the future and can be just a man, that we may meet, and you will come to me and claim me as yours, and know that I am your husband. It is a dream I have..."

I remember Excalibur mostly because of the sound track, not so much because I liked the film more than others -- but I did enjoy it! But I do love Monty Python, lol!

I also greatly enjoyed seeing Camelot performed on stage in the Melody Top theater in Milwaukee, WI -- with the lead performed by Ed Ames! Lovely, I am still a big fan of his!

Mary Stewart's Arthur series and Stephen Lawhead's series are the ones that impacted me the most as far as books about Arthur (and Merlin!) go.

Oh, and thanks in advance for the birthday wishes!! I plan to have a happy one doing all the things I like best! <3

I hope your birthday was fantastic!

I bet the Ed Ames version was marvelous. We saw Camelot in Nashville with Robert Goulet as Arthur, and it was lovely.

Now I need to have a Mary Stewart read-a-thon. I'm a big fan of the older material - Morte D'Arthur, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, etc. - but of the 20th-century works, my favorite is Catherine Christian's The Pendragon.
