WOW, what a great movie! I even liked the battle scene at the end, it was beautifully filmed. I am not into blood and gore, and there was just enough to show it was a battle, but not too much. Cornel Wilde kind of grew on me as the movie progressed and then I just loved him by the time he did his ending speech. GREAT MOVIE!

Thank you for sharing this beautiful movie. Cornel Wilde is my favorite actor. Its sad he passed away too soon . R.I.P.🙏😘
Jesus! I never expected Lancelot to slice Mordred in half, it's like Liam Neeson did to Tim Roth in Rob Roy
Ein fantastic Ritterfilm vom anfang bis zum ende spannend und ein großartiger Lancelot und eine wunderschöne Gwenevere. Sehr gut gespielt und fantastic gedreht., 👑👑🛡🛡🗡👍👍
Finally a decent copy of the favorite movie of my early youth long ago. Thank you for providing a watchable copy of this great movie!
Cornel Wilde was a fine actor. His equal does exist today.
This was a real good advendture,old known names.:Merlin,lancelot,..............We liked it very much!!!!!Thank you.
I loved this movie when I was a kid,and what I remember most was how I loved King Arthur at first,but grew to hate him for trying to burn Guinevere.

Isn't it simply a lovely movie, Curtis?
Great movie thank you. A lot of head wounds and a good left shoulder slice at the end!
So I always loved swashbuckle movies I’m so happy there are so many Left!
Like many here I really loved this movie in my youth, and I still do. Given my hormones at the time, the bathing scene with Lancelot, Guinevere, and the soap was particularly, uh, moving. A note about the initial joust for the hand of Guinevere: It was hugely violent and excellent in every way in this film, but it should be noted that two years before, the Charlton Heston movie "El Cid" featured a joust with virtually the same choreography -- broken lances, wrestling in the dust, Cid/Lancelot in mortal danger against the glowering menace, tables turned, and a fight with two-handed battle swords at the end. (That's an anachronism, by the way -- these types of swords didn't come into play until the Renaissance, many centuries later, but who cares). Now, the Heston movie had much greater Big Hollywood production values; Wilde was scraping along as an independent producer and director, but did darn well with what he had, so I'm not surprised he copied almost stroke for stroke the "El Cid" joust scene. And he actually improved a bit on it. He added a variety of available weapons, which was cool. And at the end, while Heston merely stuck his opponent , Wilde chomped him right through his helmet down to his jawbone. Spectacular! So, I kinda fault Cornell Wilde for copying the Heston choreography so closely, but he improved on it with that great "chomp!" Cornell Wilde, a wonderful leading man of the Golden Age!

Now that I think back on it, the 1952 final joust scene in "Ivanhoe" with Robert Taylor and George Sanders kinda setting the template .... charging, falling, desperation, tables turned, and "chomp". Maybe "El Cid" copied "Knights of The Round Table" and was copied in turn by Wilde My only regret was that Sanders had to die at the end of "Ivanhoe." This was one of his most sympathetic roles. He died nobly with a battle ax in his chest.
I loved this movie The music was beautiful and sad. I still may cry every now and then because of the ending. All that they went through and she is in her last steps of becoming a Nun. He was heartbroken, no Gwen. Sad, sad indeed. I went through a situation like that. That's why this movie still gets to me and I'm 74 Sad!!!! I saw this movie when I was in College. Shaking my head right now
I enjoyed this classic. I did shed some tears. Very touching and hats off to Mr. Carnell Wilde!💔😓
Awesome! Thanks again for another Classic!
It's crazy to think there was no Wi-Fi or an internet to browse back then. I don't just mean the Middle Ages, but even as recent as the actors and actresses playing in this film weren't able to enjoy their breaks watching KZread.

Nice to see old movies restored to HD.
Guinevere can go to the convent in Glastonbury and commence work on some good Trappist Ale.Having crushed so many men's hearts she can now set about soothing their souls with some fine brews.
Thanks for sharing this movie. This British film was called “Lancelot and Guinevere” but the title was changed for American audiences. Cornel Wilde co-produced, directed, co-wrote, and played Lancelot. Jean Wallace (Polish) and Cornel Wilde (Hungarian) were married to each other from 1951 to 1981. They had a son together. They were also starred in “The Big Combo” together. Prior to marrying Cornel she attempted suicide twice in her life. Jean Wallace died at 66 (1990, Gastrointestinal bleeding) and Cornel Wilde at 77 (1989, Leukemia).

Yes, this is a British production, but Cornel Wilde was American, though born in Hungary. He came to the US at the age of seven. Cornell loved America and being American and had been very grateful for finding fame and fortune in the land his parents chose to emigrate to. Like Tony Curtis (Bernard Schwarz), he had Jewish/Hungarian roots, but changed his name (and age) to work in theatre and Hollywood. Many elements from this film were used by Monty Python as the basis for 'The Holy Grail' comic film, not limited to John Cleese's over enthusiastic 'CAMELOT!' at sighting the castle in the opening scene. My aunt used to practice fencing with Cornell. He was on the early lineup of the US Olympic Fencing team for the 1936 Olympics.

Well-known story of Lancelot and Guinevere but now with some extra gritty realism thrown in (missing in those countless medieval epics from the fifties), especially in the spectacular large-scale battlescenes. Also director and star Cornel Wilde is a former US fencing champion so the swordfights are pretty brutal.

I don't care for this version of Guinevere. She comes off as a self serving, manipulative narcissist doing what narcissists do; taking everything to rack and ruin. As beautiful as Jean Wallace is here, her character is too pointedly aggressive; especially for those times.
The song of the initial credits was used on "the crowded sky"(1960, released by Warner Bros Pictures )
Sick battle
Fantastic movie
A wonderful presentation in original 2.35 Panavision by PizzaFlix of a truly great spectacle which is worthy of being compared to Charlton Heston's great epic El Cid, an honour which few movies achieve. Wonderful cast, good script, epic scenes, moving romance, costumes which colour film must have been invented for, and a stirring, moving musical score. A movie still good enough for today's cinema audiences, crafted expertly by Cornel Wilde, 1963. KAN 9.19 UK

A remarkably clever movie, very much the love of its producer and director, star Cornel Wilde, whose writers concentrate sensibly on the love triangle, Lancelot-Guinevere-Arthur, rather trying to cover the whole Arthurian legend. It was filmed on a decent budget, partly in England and in Yugoslavia with a British cast who as usual took their acting roles seriously. Jean Wallace, the heroine, was also Mrs Cornel Wilde and it shows in their love scenes. The action sequences are remarkably violent for the 1960s; this realism was Cornel Wilde`s express wish, something he carried on his other directorial efforts, "The Naked Prey" and "Beach Red".
The Celts had soap long before the Romans.

Perhaps they left, on the cutting room floor, the scenes showing the Brave Sir Lancelot single handedly storming a castle built in a swamp, killing many of its inhabitants.
I saw it once... twice...and then I decided to buy it.I maybe the last of the mohicans,but I am always interested in good made movies.I have knights of the round table and prince Valiant.I had never heard of this movie.I always buy good films on dvd.This is one to own not just watch once.Some ''horror'' scenes did prevent it to be shown on television I think.Good movie that every fan should have.I bought the German version with English language.Just perfect for me.

Cornel Wilde From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Born: Kornél Lajos Weisz October 13, 1912[1] Privigye, Kingdom of Hungary (now Prievidza, Slovakia) Died: October 16, 1989 (aged 77) Los Angeles, California, U.S. Resting place: Westwood Memorial Park, Los Angeles, California Other names: Clark Wales, Jefferson Pascal Education Columbia University Occupation Actor, director Years active 1935-1987 Spouse(s): Patricia Knight (m. 1937; div. 1951) Jean Wallace (m. 1951; div. 1981) Children 2 Wilde's acting career began in 1935 when he made his debut on Broadway. In 1936 he began making small, uncredited appearances in films. By the 1940s he had signed a contract with 20th Century Fox, and by the mid-1940s he was a major leading man. He was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in 1945's A Song to Remember. In the 1950s he moved to writing, producing, and directing films, and still continued his career as an actor. I prefer the Lancelot/Guinevere plot as presented in 'Excalibur'!!!!
Great Movie!
Anyone know which version of the dvd this was taken from? Seems much better quality than the one I have.
I also like that arm slice 💪
A very sad 😢 movie y did I watch this?! 😭😭😭😭 Now I'm depress is fuck!!!
Perhaps they left, on the cutting room floor, the scenes showing the Brave Sir Lancelot, thinking he was rescuing a captive, single handedly storming a castle built in a swamp, killing many of its unfortunate inhabitants, and later declining to marry a fair princess.
Great print! Such a nice, clean print, it's a shame that the top and bottom are cropped here. Also, there seems to be some side to side movement (noticeable in static shots). Perhaps when this was transferred from a print? I know many people joke about this film, but I've always enjoyed it ever since I caught it on TV late one night years ago.

No worries, it's only a slight crop. Hardly noticeable. It seems to be at the top only. Also, the film seems to shift back and forth (almost like a projector gate wobble). That is probably also from one of the transfers since the shift happens regardless of where splices would be. Historically, splice areas on prints would cause this problem. But compared with the 4x3 crop and pan scan versions of this film online, yours is by far superior in every way. Thanks for the upload.

@@robbiereilly I have two wide screen (2.35:1) DVD's of Lancelot and Guinevere and both have the same transfer fault. An occasional horizontal jitter. The transfers have been slightly cropped top, bottom and sides (to maintain the aspect ratio) by a method known as zoom boxing. This means zooming into the picture slightly to mask off the white splice lines between scenes that were quite common on some British made Eastman Colour films shot in 'Scope which were noticeable because the full height of the frame was used. There was a similar problem on Sammy Going South, released in 1963, which has also been transferred to DVD slightly zoom boxed. As a cinema projectionist in the 1960s who ran both films that year, I can tell you that the splice lines on Eastman Colour films in CinemaScope or Panavision were very noticeable and rather annoying. Racking the picture up or down in the projector gate was no good, as the flashing white lines would appear at both the top and bottom of the frame.

So right it was a total mismatch right from the start. Most beautiful young women like this do not want to be with a man old enough to be their father. Of course, what Lancelot, and Guinevere did to Arthur was wrong, and sad, but him standing by and allowing her to be burned to death was infinitely more cruel, and worse. He was my favorite character in the film at first, but I lost any sympathy for him, and even grew to strongly dislike him after that. Of course, it is just a show, and there is no real historical proof that a King Arthur, or any other of these characters even existed.
DILLY DILLY!!
