Burning Itch: Merlin


Despite the week being full of absurdity ready to be made fun of, the news that Nicol Williamson had passed away knocked the wind out of me.

His turns as Sherlock Holmes, Little John, and, most importantly to me, Merlin in John Boorman's EXCALIBUR, have stayed with me as the most definitive and enjoyable versions of those characters.

I'll return to ridiculing something or someone next week, but, right now, I think I'll finish watching EXCALIBUR in my studio.
