Based on your notes and your viewing of the film, do you think King Arthur is a fiction or non-fiction story? Explain and provide details to support your answer.
I think King Arthur is a fiction story because even though a he might be a real person, I think the King Arthur stories are very exaggerated and very fantasy-related.
Review and comment on the film viewed in class. Your writing should be persuasive, provide examples from the film to support your opinion/argument and summarize your overall opinion about "The Real King Arthur". Be sure to include a film rating based on your opinion. (7-10 sentences)
When watching the film in class, I found it to be very interesting. There were so many things I never knew about the King Arthur story and what it was about. I give this documentary four out of five swords because I feel that it included most of the details about King Arthur's life. The legend of King Arthur is told from many different perspectives and everyone has a different opinion on it. I feel that this documentary explored more than one perspective and covered many different things that occurred during Arthur's life. This documentary was full of information about the legend of King Arthur. It talked about Arthur himself, the places he had gone to or visited, who or what kind of people he associated with, and all about him faking his death.
