Episode notes

John Boorman has built an eclectic body of work ranging from the experimental and deconstructionist POINT BLANK (1967) to the coming-of-age military drama QUEEN & COUNTRY (2014). In this episode, Bill and Colin explore his less-talked-about EXCALIBUR, a strange and inspired Arthurian fantasy drawing from various mythological sources. The cast is an embarrassment of riches including Helen Mirren, Nicol Williamson, Gabriel Byrne, Liam Neeson, Patrick Stewart, Ciarán Hinds and Nigel Terry. Joining us is Producer Dave Woods to help the lads in this battle for truth and honor.
