Movie synopsis

Lancelot (Richard Gere) is a rogue with no ties, no enemies, and no fear- until he meets Lady Guinevere of Leonesse (Julia Ormond). She has promised to marry King Arthur (Sean Connery), not only because his armies can protect her country, but because she truly loves him. But her chance encounter with Lancelot as she prepared to enter Camelot stirs conflicting and powerful emotions within her. Arthur welcomes both into his city with open heart, little foreseeing how his great capacity for love and trust opens the doors for his own betrayal.

First Knight

Created: 06/09/09
One of the Best examples of an alternative-interpretation of classic Arthurian Legend films ever made...with spectacular scenes of mythic lore to satisfy even the most imagination-challenged viewers...Strong cast led by Sean Connery in a role he was born to play with swept-off-your-feet supporting roles from Richard Gere as lusty Lancelot and Julia Ormond as glorious Guinevere re-defining one of history's greatest love triangles whilst allowing Bravery, Honor and Sacrifice to overcome their natural instincts summed up in a provocative and literate exchange about the essence of Love; "Your Heart chooses him," says a jealous Arthur, "but My Will chooses you", whereupon Guinevere responds, "and that is the Best of Me."...Memorable screenwriting including King Arthur's bittersweet "I take the Good with the Bad, I can't Love people in slices"...Fantastic action, evocative emotion and spellbinding story all combine to entertain both fine minds and soaring spirits regally for a Perfect Night...

Richard Gere & Sean Connery are two of the hottest men alive. Both in one move... This movie is packed with action from begining to end. It will also touch your heart as it is a love story about Camelot, the knights of the round table, Guinevere, Lancelot & King Arthur. I bought it many times before but never had it in DVD so that's why I bought it again. My children were all excited to see it again also. They are teenagers

The movie have some of the best actors in it. You have Sean Connery, Richard Gere, Julia Ormond and Ben Cross. This is a new vision of King Arthur's Camelot. A vision of breathtaking battles, of heart-pounding courage, of the love that brought an entire kingdom to its knees and of the undying passion that made it live forever.

First Knight Again?

Created: 12/02/07
Sean Connery Richard Gere Julia Ormond

This dvd brings a new vision on Camelot. A vision of breathaking battles, of heart pounding courage and undeniable love that brought an entire kingdom to its knees and of the undying passion that made it live forever.

They did go overboard on the clothing not being historically accurate, but what hollywood movie stems for accuracy? The storyline is basic to the original, but I think they just tried too hard to impress by not makeing it simple.
