ReplyDelete'[it is] about the currpotion[sic] of the throne during the 13th century and is about the distinct barrier between rich and poor people during that period of time.'
Does this still apply to Britain today? Why is the tale still so popular? What British 'values' and culture does the film communicate?
"Him and his gang of merry men, including characters such as Little John target the rich, confront them, threatening them with bows, arrows and swords." I cannot remember this happening in the film, as it is an 'origins' story, rather than the traditional tale. Ensure you research accurately.
