Sword of Lancelot (1963) - King Arthur's most valued Knight of the Round Table

Sword of Lancelot (1963) is a lesser-known version of the Camelot legend. It is a work almost solely made by Cornel Wilde, who co-produced, directed, co-wrote, and played Lancelot. Lancelot is King Arthur's most valued Knight of the Round Table and a paragon of courage and virtue. Things change, however, when he falls for Guinevere (Wallace), bride of Arthur (Brian Aherne, who had essayed this character previously in 1954's Prince Valiant), and she for him.
