Ah very true.My mistake.
We're about to see if he can destroy the English legend of Robin Hood like some American actors have,while using lots of American dollars to do it with!
Better?
Movie is a visual picture, legend is mental picture, never be the same as the latter is in one's mind.
Errol Flynn is a movie legend as Robin Hood, Kevin kosner did a good job in the remake of Robin Hood, and was one of his best roles...
What are some of the British film productions you like of English legends?
Come on...Flynn's portrayal was pure fantasy and ridiculous! Costner was fine..if you prefer the romanticized and total BS versions!
Apart from this and king Arthur i don't think we've done anything about our legends.Not that sticks out in the mind anyhow.I'd hate to say any due to not knowing exactly who financed any that were made without googling all day..which i ain't gonna do! lol.
Depends on your definition of "Legend"? To me it's "no historical proof he/she/they/it ever existed".
If it's "the legend of jesse james" type of "legend"?...then we've made lots. "Henry the V"..."a man for all seasons"..."Elizabeth R"...."Henry VIII"..."Jack the ripper"..."Trafalgar"...and the never to be forgotten "James Bond"! lol.
