Shot live from the Winter Garden Theatre in New York City, this presentation of the 1980 Broadway revival of the beloved Lerner & Loewe classic follows King Arthur, who founds the kingdom of Camelot and the Knights of the Round Table. Their goal: fight for justice and right, but Arthur only sees his ideal crumble when his wife Guenevere falls in love with his favorite knight, Sir Lancelot.

What critics compared Camelot to
In one of the high-octane film’s best and quietest moments, he visits Moriarty (played by Jared Harris, son of Richard Harris of “Camelot” and the original Dumbledore in the first Harry Potter movies) to ask whether they can agree to let Watson be free of any entanglement in the unpleasantness ahead.
In "The Gladiator," he's stalwart, muscled General Maximus, who becomes the favorite of frail Emperor Marcus Aurelius (Richard Harris, looking as if he were floating out of "Camelot").
Marcus Aurelius, a haggard Richard Harris sounding a bit like the legendary king he played in Camelot, muses that "there once was a dream that was Rome."
