Has anyone here seen the film "Sin City"? Evidently there are some
Arthurian influences.

The three heroes are, in their way, knights errant, and one can see a
certain echo of /Frauendienst/, but I see more of that general image to
it than anything particularly Arthurian. No Graal, no Lancelot, no Arthur.

Thanks, John. I suspected as much. Will have to see it anyway just
because of all the chatter about it, but I guess I'll wait for the
rental DVDs.
