lucrezianoin:20 days of arthurian tv (and the LIST) - #05: Merlin (1998)Were there any actors/actresses that you would have changed?Paul Curran who played Arthur. He is not a bad actor and I know the character of Arthur was not completely positive, but I think Paul Curran made an Arthur a bit too ‘evil’ and detestable.In five points write down what you didn’t like about it.Mordred’s family. I don’t like the fact that Mordred is so mindlessly cruel and he grows up so quickly and laughs at his mother’s death.Nimue’s obsession with beauty. I know it was in character with the Nimue of the tv show but still I couldn’t like it.The fact that Nimue was not a powerful magician.Arthur.I actually don’t have any more points. I suppose it was a bit too fantasy for my tastes.Would you recommend this adaptation? Why?Yes, I would. It is one of the best among all these quite mediocre arthurian adaptations. The story is written in quite an elegant way, everything is explained and the twist with Galahad, Lancelot and Guinevere is incredibly original. -- source link
