In an epic retelling of the
timeless and tragic love triangle,
three lives converge in the golden
city of Camelot.
With no ties, no enemies and no
fear, Lancelot (Richard Gere) is
the perfect warrior. He comes to
Camelot not for glory or
knighthood, although he finds both,
but for the love of the one woman
he cannot have, the beautiful and
honorable Lady Guinevere of
Leonesse (Julia Ormond).
Guinevere has promised to marry
King Arthur (Sean Connery) not only
because his army will protect her
country, but because she truly
loves him for his wise and gentle
ways. As she prepares to enter
Camelot as its new queen, a chance
encounter with Lancelot awakens
conflicting and powerful emotions
within her.
For Arthur, she represents a
once-in-a-lifetime chance at true
love and a beloved queen for his
kingdom. Likewise, the king comes
to see Lancelot as possessing the
honor and bravery of a true Knight.
He welcomes them both into his city
and into his heart, never
foreseeing how his great capacity
for love and trust opens the doors
for his betrayal.
