Movie Review - Lancelot du Lac

Lancelot du Lac (1974)
directed by Robert Bresson
rating: 3 out of 5 jalapeƱos
on DVD from Netflix

This contemplative (ponderous) French film has a lot in common with Michael Mann's adaptation of The Last of the Mohicans - you can imagine Colonel Munro watching the French surround his fort and thinking about Lancelot, Mordred, and Guinevere (although not, in the end, in French).
