#Robin and Marian

[heatherfield]

He has to have the glory, doesn't he? Glory? Nah. I think he just wants to be loved.

King Arthur Pendragon, First Knight (1995) VS. Robin Hood, Robin and Marian (1976)

Propaganda

King Arthur Pendragon, First Knight (1995) Portrayed by: Sean Connery

“A lot of my text propaganda for Sean Connery in First Knight might boil down to: why is Guinevere looking at Richard Gere!Lancelot when her husband is RIGHT THERE looking like THAT? And looking at HER like that? And he makes her laugh! And he holds her like she's the most precious thing in the world! And he trusts her political and administrative capabilities (so sexy of him)! A lesser man might look silly waiting for a procession to reach him past standing stones and torches. Not he. Is this movie good? no. Do scenes from it live in my head rent-free? Yes. Sean Connery, just a force field of gravitas and charisma in this thing, as King Arthur ought to be. Also have I mentioned the warmth in his eyes when he looks at her? Not over it.”

Robin Hood, Robin and Marian (1976) Portrayed by: Sean Connery

“Neither Robin Hood nor Sean Connery is in danger of being underrepresented (thank goodness) but it would be a crime not to consider the hotness of Connery!Robin specifically. I wish my calf muscles were that good, for one thing, and his humor and warmth with Marian make my heart melt, for another. Also, that salt-and-pepper beard is REALLY working for him, I think. Also also, was that grin of his ever *not* deadly?”

[whitewaterpaper]

Nytt år, nya filmer. Eller ja... Kanske snarare nygamla... En bra månad om jag får säga så själv.

Captain America (1979) [] Mina anteckningar under filmer: Beige, Orange Jacka, David Hasselhoff-lookalike och Roger Moore-aktig skurk.

Giants of Thessaly, the / I giganti della Tessaglia (1960) [👍🆓] Kul egen take på Jason and the Argonauts-mytoset.

Hotet från Åttonde Dimensionen / Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension, the (1984) [👍🔁] Skriven och producerad som en komedi, ämnad att vara lite knäpp och skruvad. Vet inte om jag finner så mycket att skratta åt, men den är underhållande.

Jason and the Argonauts / Det Gyllene Skinnet (1963) [👍🔁]

Robin Hood: Äventyrens man / Robin and Marian (1976) [👍🆓] Sean Connery™, Audrey Hepburn™, Robert Shaw (Quint i Hajen), Richard Harris™, Ian Holm™ och Bill Maynard (Greengrass i Aidensfield ). Vilken jäkla cast va! Rena gottpåsen en helt vanlig måndagskväll.

Robin Hoods Hämnd / Prince of Thieves, the (1948) [🆓]

Rollerball (1975) [🔁]

Sinbad och Tigerns Öga / Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger (1977) [👍🔁🆓]

Sinbads Fantastiska Resa / Golden Voyage of Sinbad, the (1973) [👍🔁🆓]

Spy Hard (1996) [👎🔁] Nä. Ibland skall man verkligen lite på sin egen betygsättning, speciellt när man inte minns något av filmen i övrigt. Weird-Al Yancovich känns dock gjuten i ledmotivet.

Två Man om En Änka (1990) [👍🔁🆓📺🎭] Nils Poppe och favoriten Berit Carlberg.

Två Man om en Änka (2023) [👍🆓📺🎭] Nytolkning med Per Andersson i den ledande rollen. Är ingen stor favorit av Per A. men pjäsen är kul och sevärd.

Virtuosity (1995) [👍] 90-talsraffel om AI, VR och datorer som vägrar dö.

Kan man tycker jag man skall ge Eva Rydbergs sista fredriksdalare en chans. Men känner man sig modig testa Virtuosity som övar överraskande bra. Månadens fynd blir dock annars Robin Hood: Äventyrens Man, en film jag velat se i flera år.

[mogwai-movie-house]

If you've never seen Robin and Marian (1976), you're really missing out: it's one of the small handful of truly essential Robin Hood stories on film; a funny, sad, reflective take on legend, fame and age, with Sean Connery and Audrey Hepburn at their best, and an excellent supporting cast of familiar British faces. It's a small, pared-down production, but the lack of glossiness adds believability and it contains far more genuine feeling and wisdom than any other attempt at the tale.

★★★★★★★★½☆

Ser Jorah Mormont, Game of Thrones (2011-2019) VS. Little John, Robin and Marian (1976)

Propaganda

Ser Jorah Mormont, Game of Thrones (2011-2019) Portrayed by: Iain Glen

“A man banished from his home for his crimes, he finds love and a new purpose with the Khaleesi, the Mother of Dragons, but choosing her means giving up only chance to go home. Even though his love is not returned, and she banishes him at one point as well, he remains her steadfast servant, her loyal knight, until the end.”

Little John, Robin and Marian (1976) Portrayed by: Nicol Williamson

“Little John is *always* lovely, of course, but I think he is especially lovely, and hot, in Nicol Williamson's thoughtful portrayal. He has such gorgeous eyes, and such a gift for attention, and the most incredible long and sinewy legs. He has spent literal decades putting up with Robin and loving him and loving their life and the greenwood and -- I just love him. Little John always has to be tall and strong, and it's nice to see a Little John who is so thoughtful and nuanced, too. [The pictures I could find do not do this role justice, though the expression of concern is pretty accurate.]”
