Without a doubt, Lancelot was Guinevere's hero. He saved her life in the final battle. It was a heroic act, although I don't think it was necessary to kill him.
"I would have left you and the boy to die." Some thoughts have been shared as to why he says this, and my first impression is that he was purposely deflecting. Perhaps as a "don't get too close to me" defense mechanism. He realizes that he is falling in love with Guinevere and feels that it is better if he makes himself unappealing to her because of deep-seeded fears he has...Perhaps he feels he is incapable, or maybe undeserving of love...so better that she thinks he is merely a brute with no soul than risk heartbreak. I wish these scenes had been left in the film, at least the version I saw, because these are new to me and I feel like they would have definitely added to the film by exploring the complexity of these two's personalities and their dynamic.
yes totally, that is why he says that phrase, it is to scare her away, also when Lancelot mentions that he does not have the right to have children or anything, it is another phrase to highlight since it makes Geneva understand that no one can be with him because he cannot be He feels worthy of having a family after taking the lives of too many people.
Loved Ioan as Lancelot. Lancelot is a great character! Clive Owen on the other hand played Arthur with no emotions and I didn't care for him at all. Was really wishing for Lancelot and Guinevere!
They are both Welshman so it was great to see a Welshman finally get to play Arthur King of the Celtic Britons BUT Loan is such a better actor, he should have been Arthur our once an future King. The chemistry was great between him and her.
In many legends Lancelot and Guinevere did in fact have an affair. Baden Hill was considered to be Arthur's last real victory, though it came at a heavy price. Out of all the knights that went on the Quest For The Holy Grail, only 3 completed it and only Galahad passed with flying colours.
I'am here because i was banned in MLBB(i dont' know why for 3 days though :/) and i just found out that guinevere is lancelot's sister in MLBB so i want to know the story and i was shookt by dissss
"... I would have left you and the boy there to die" I think that was the major deal breaker. Basically... "Bitch, shut up and leave me alone for once"
It's definitely a departure from the traditional Arthurian legend. I think the director wanted to show an attraction between Lancelot and Guinevere, but didn't want them to act on it. This keeps focus off the love triangle aspect. Unfortunately for the director, Guinevere had way more chemistry with Lancelot than she did with Arthur.
