Excalibur is not a thing, something you can hold in your hand.
Excalibur is the good in you.
The power to do good, to stand up for what's right, to slay dragons, to capture bank robbers.
You always carry Excalibur in your heart.

Remaking the Middle Ages--New from McFarland

I recently posted the details of Andrew B. R. Elliott's Remaking the Middle Ages: The Methods of Cinema and History in Portraying the Medieval World to the main society blog. The post can be accessed by clicking here.

A look at the index reveals that Elliott covers the following Arthurian films: Black Knight, Camelot, Dragonheart, Excalibur, First Knight, A Kid in King Arthur's Court, King Arthur, A Knight in Camelot, Knights of the Round Table, Lancelot and Guinevere, Lancelot du Lac, Merlin, Merlin: The Return, Perceval le Gallois, Prince Valiant, Quest for Camelot, Siege of the Saxons, The Sword in the Stone, The Sword of Lancelot, Sword of the Valiant, and Tristan + Isolde. Additional Arthurian films are noted in the filmography.
