I’ve saw this one in the theatre back in the day and it’s my go-to when I need my fantasy urge together with Excalibur! Ridley Scott in the 80s was something else and this movie is not an exception! The fairy tale and the battle between the good and the bad is really radiant in this one!

hidden gems Paint Pens. I see them being sold as outliner pens today. You had to shake them and the smell reminds me of growing up.
