| C'mon, it's not Brigadoon; it's merely a character waxing poetic to his bride-to-be, painting a picture to mitigate the coldly arranged partnership. He's a historically anointed young man with the undiscovered soul of romantic (too), the show insists. And stakes wise, if the Arthur-Guinevere emotional alignment -- matching its ruling synergy -- doesn't secure our investment, the subsequent triangle cannot happen. We have to believe in the marriage for its destruction to have plot weight. Lerner gave Arthur a paean that bordered on myth to sell himself, not a kingdom. |
