Show notes
Men at the crossroads. Lancelot of the Lake. Robert Dupea. Worlds involving the Round Table with daring-do in England, and the existential desolation of oil and cold south-north-west coast. Sword fights and disagreements over toast. Chivalry and piano. CINEMASCOPE and BBS. Here we got a film that may have not been seen like Sword in the Stone or Excalibur, but it's worth talking about another Arthurian cinematic adaptation nonetheless for Jack. Meanwhile, Andrew takes in Jack Nicholson's breakthrough as a leading man in this character drama. 1) KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND TABLE (1954) directed by Richard Thorpe 2) FIVE EASY PIECES (1970) directed by Bob Rafelson (Opening music from Miklos Rosza's score for 'Knights', closing music from Chopin)
