@@goognamgoognw6637 Actually it was all really French vs French. The English were just the sword fodder for the French rulers of England. The Angevin rulers were very French when they succeeded the Normans who actually were French speaking Vikings. An Angevin ancestor is documented as turning in to the devil and flying out of a church window so a scary family indeed. It was not until the Welsh Tudors took over that the French were pushed out. Then a Scottish hierarchy took over, interrupted by a short interregnum with a rather miserable killjoy Englishman, followed by the Dutch and then finally and to this day the Germans. English history ended in 1066 but the poor English just get all the blame for everything. I preferred the stage presentation to the film as the mock horse scenes just seemed better on the stage.

@@michaeld5888 I enjoyed your concise and clear summary of English history and saved it. It is impossible to find that from any documentary as it always turns into a nationalistic marathon of unilateral minute details leaving out major lines from the other side. One question, the French themselves are a mixture of Francs a Germanic tribe from the Bavaria region, and Romans and Celts. Weren't the English population before the Normand conquest also Germanic tribes : the Saxons and the Angls and before that a more ancient Celtic population first indigenous inhabitants ? Around the bronze age the Europeans became violent changed from grain farming , from pastoral herders, from hunter and gatherer to raiding and violent conquest based on race according to a recent neolithic genetic study. This is how the stock of European genes was built and recognizable today and dominated by Nordic tribes where land resources were limited. Only the oldest son inherited the local land all the other sons had to prepare for conquest, were trained for raiding and combat from a young age and then had to leave and find new land to raid. Based on historical genetic studies and graves they would raid other races only and systematically kill all the males and children and keep the women to reproduce and as labor. Today Europe is disappearing because the exact opposite is being done, a replacement of all the stock gene by africans being invited by a non-european pseudo elite minority.

@@goognamgoognw6637 Thanks it was a bit tongue in cheek but hopefully the summary of kingship is accurate. France itself was a small political region but grew in to one nation from what I remember especially when the faction based in England became isolated so my saying French kings is a bit of a generalisation. The Anglo Saxons were Germanic but seemed very Norske in their habits especially as regards the sea. I recall reading a quote somewhere from a Roman saying the Saxons were not human, a compliment indeed from a Roman, saying they feared neither sea nor shipwreck which they considered as more an exercise than a disaster or words to that effect. I read a lot of history but forget a lot so do not take my word for it too much.

@@michaeld5888 I vaguely remember a documentary that the Saxons were a different Germanic tribe than the Angles and all these groups might have common ancestors with vikings. We talk in term of countries today but there were no countries in England or France even when imperial rome imposed roman laws among the many groups, even after the fall of Rome, it took many centuries for the so called barbarians to replace the Roman head of states by feudal conquest between themselves. Before Romans came, each barbarians had a precise define race and raided and killed any other groups. They did not attempts to conquer to impose a law to another group probably because their way of life was just tied to mysticism without written laws . The Romans taught them administration, the imposition of taxes by the state for a common good (a great innovation but always diminished by corruption) and only then they chose to rule instead of destroying competition. France is a good example, composed of groups living alongside without being a country. Until one chieftain wants to become the highest of all and like a Cesar. The notion of country is tied to a King. Even then vassal states were not ruled directly but paid tribute. So it was for England first a French vassal state until these vassals separated to make an independent country.

There are so many great scenes in this movie that I can't possibly count them. I always liked the scene where the 2 peasants are talking as King Arthur rides by and one peasant says, "He must be a king or something". The second peasant says, "How can you tell?" causing the first peasant to reply, "He hasn't got sh*t all over him." Then there's the stuff about the Knights who say Knee, or the knight with his arms and legs cut off. I must have seen this movie like 100 times as a teenager when cable was in its infancy and the movie could be run uncut and unedited.

Gobbledygook tinfoil response. A major reason why there arent many movies like this anymore is that movies have become so expensive to make. Studios cant afford to pour a ton of money into a film and it bombs at box office anymore. They used to be able to tolerate that. Studios now prefer franchises or similar because there is a reliable fan base which guarantees viewers. It gets boring though. Audiences also want perfection in movies now so that means off the rails expenses with things like CGI etc. Cant make a silly movie like this without 10,000 people trying to criticize it either. “Theres no way the Black Knight could charge a second time having lost that much blood…”

I don't remember the exact battle but there once was a siege in Portugal going on for too long, the defenders were at risk of starvation. They decided to actually throw part of the little food supply they still had over the wall. The besieging Spanish army growing tired and frustrated took it as "we have enough food to hold out forever" and the siege was abandoned (probably because the attacking army wrongly figured other castles would be easier to starve into submission.
