“It’s about the birth of enlightened government, love, honor and the ideals of chivalry. “The tale of King Arthur is intriguing no matter what age you are,” said Alan Paul. It also tells a strikingly familiar tale of a leader’s integrity, courage and empathy-a chronicle of the struggle for civilization and goodness in a world accustomed to violence and hate, and a hymn to an era of leadership that upheld idealism and championed the potential of humankind.
