Do you know the entire film off by heart?

No.

King Arthur: I am your king.
Woman: Well I didn't vote for you.
King Arthur: You don't vote for kings.
Woman: Well how'd you become king then?
[Angelic music plays... ]
King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king.
Dennis: [interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.



As a matter of bloody interest what the hell is samite eh? Is it like polyester?

A heavy silk fabric, often interwoven with gold or silver, worn in the Middle Ages.

I confess that I am often surprised at just how diverse the accumulated knowledge is on this board.

I am far too cynical to be surprised at anything.   noooo:

But this board frequently impresses me.
