After watching most of Eric Rohmer's work, some movies at the low end felt stale, uninspired and really just a waste of time. But I was lucky enough to stumble upon this refreshing experience to remind me what he's capable of regardless of the plot or lazy writing. Throughout the movie I felt as though I was watching it in theater and could hear the audience laughter. The movie follows an arthurian legend/poem word for word and I am not one for literature or poems but I really was looking for the closed curtains at the end to open again and continue.
