Perhaps it will be helpful to note which movies I'm watching and keep my whispering memories diary elsewhere.

Yesterday evening I saw "Merlin," a 1998, made for television film staring Sam Neill as the magician. It was not terribly well done but the cinematography was super. The story itself was changed drastically, but with some mercy, from many of the legends and folklore I've read or imagined.

Nimue (nin u-way) and Merlin have a successful relationship. Morgan la Fay dies by the hand or impetus of Maab. And several characters are added for flavor.
