called Camelot!"King Arthur makes this request of young Tom

of Warwick near the end of "Camelot", in hopesof bequeathing his ideals to future generations ofEnglishmen.The end of the movie occurs in lime only a half

hour or so after the Segtrming. In the openingscene, King Arthur (Richard Harris) is in FIancepreparing to go to war with Lancclot du Lac(Fr311co Nero) over Queen Guinevere (VanessaRcdgrave). Arthur goes off by himself to thinkabout the approaching bat tle .

When Merlyn the magician (Lionel Jeffries) ap-pears and urges Arthur to think back to the mostImportant day of his life, Arthur remembers theday he met Guinevere and the story in flashbackbegins.All of the actors and actresses were convincing

in their roles, but Richard Harris takes the prize.He seems so at borne in medieval speech and cos-tume (including armor). Arthur's ideals of justicefor an and might for right seem to belong just asmuch to him:Vanessa Redgravc is pleasantly ~urptising as a

queen who spends as much time grooming he. ownhouse as she does sitting on her throne. FrancoNero is better as Ouinevcrc's lover than he is as thePIiTe but conceited young knight when he firstcame to be a member ofthe Round Table.

Camelot offers many things to many people. Itsglor ious p ic ture of medieva l pageantry will delightthe history scholar. The hcautiful love story ofLance and Jenny will touch the hearts of youngand old. Intellectuals will find symboli-sm in theRound Table and Arthur's struggles with It. Rare itis to find a movie that will send even the s te rnestsouls fumbling fur handkerchiefs, while youngchildren applaud it at its dose.

Camelot is, above all, an important lesson aboutlife. It teaches that every person will have somedreams that rue fulfilled and some that fail. Andwhat's a person to do when his dreams do fail?Why, keep on dreaming, which is all anyone cando,
