    watching this has unlocked a very far away memory in my brain. The music, the whole aesthetic, the face of that actress and her voice... I feel so nostalgic.

      Likely connected due to a past life, or a soul contract or soul connection if it resonates with you or feels familiar.. there are plenty of past life regressionists out there that can assist you with that if you're curious

      Hmmm….nostalgic? You do realize the Christian god was NOT recognized for several hundred years. They were all Pagan. But Christianity has to insert itself into everything. Look it up. I’m English, I lived there from birth until 2014.

      So amazing to have seen this. I was a kid and I read the book hearing the movie was coming. And and my best friend thought ourselves little priestesses and we bought the soundtrack from Indigo. I am just finishing the book again- I read it every once in a while and it’s all masterful :)

    I will forever owe this film. We watched the first 45 minutes or so of it in my 12th grade English class while doing a unit on the Arthurian legends. The moment at 0:09, when Morgaine is coming ethereally out of the mist with the hushed singing accompanying the shot, that's when something was awakened in my soul, something I hadn't even realized was asleep and couldn't even name at the time. But, to make a long story short, it was my memories of a past life in Avalon and that my spiritual faith now is rooted in eclectic, Wicca-based Paganism. A wonderful film, a fantastic retelling of the classic tales, and an amazing soundtrack, too; this movie also introduced me to Loreena McKennitt's music. Just glorious. Blessed be. )O(

      I felt that way after reading the book in the late 80’s when I was a teenager too. I don’t know about a past life, though I do believe in reincarnation,but I was drawn in by the descriptions of Avalon and it’s religion. I’m 50 now, and finally ready to make that leap. Blessed be.

    THIS NEEDS TO BE A HOLLYWOOD MOVIE. The timing is right. Audiences need to hear the story from a different perspective --- maybe outside of the patriarchy is the best perspective now.

    • @gunnarthorsen
      @gunnarthorsen Před 4 lety +11

      Why? One could argue that "patriarchy" is nature's norm. Of the 76 existing non-human mammal species that exhibit leadership, only 7 have females that take charge during conflict, foraging or migration. One could conversely argue that "male" and "female" compliment each other, and that we don't need patriarchy OR matriarchy, but balance and respect for both.

    saxons did not ride horses in battle /// there are far better books on the Arthur tale, VOICES OF THE STARS by Rowena Whaling and THE WARLORD CHRONICLES by Bernard Cornwell. "MISTS" was full of anachronisms and just wrong use of terms and words. like using 'castle' and 'knight'- terms not used till much later. Place names having Britons using saxon names like Glastonbury, and referring to Gwynhyfar as 'the Queen of England". not even the saxons were using the word england yet
