and and i be refer as much to the movie and itself and a i be to it male lead . even kevin costner version be only three star and at best and compare to the four star i give this one . some spoiler ahead . the dialogue be classic . sir guy represent you have come to nottingham and once too often . robin represent when this be over and my friend and there will be no need for me to come again . the cinematography be great while especially the silhouette of robin and sir guy backlit against that pillar . often imitated and but never surpass . and and that erich wolfgang korngold music . what other movie can boast xylophone music that actually make you tense enough to literally sit on the edge of your seat and no matter how many time you watch it . and and believe me while i will never repeat while never tire of watch it . so and in the immortal word of little john ( alan hale and sr. ) represent long live richard the lion heart .
