Fun fact: the producers hated that end credit scene so much that they wanted it cut out of the movie. But all the actors became such close friends, even before filming and had so much fun during filming that they all demanded that it would be included, almost as a token of all the fun they had while making this movie

A Knight's Tale is one of those movies where you know if you will love or hate it from its opening sequence. It immediately makes itself clear that it is a sports film set in medieval times, and some people have a hard time accepting it for that.

I’m an exception to that! When the opening sequence started, I wanted to leave the theatre (and I had been so excited about the movie). I thought “WTF *IS* THIS‽” So glad I stayed. So glad. I got into the rhythm of it pretty quickly and have loved it ever since.

Not just entertainment, the director wanted the audience to understand something about that period: that it was all modern to them! The hairstyles, music, clothing, and dance were all modern to them. Jousting was their sporting event. The Maximillion-style helmet flying off into the crowd was like a baseball. These events were like The World Series or The Superbowl. This is how the director connected the audience to the story. And it was brilliant!

it gets really frustrating to me how deeply misunderstood "Death of the Author" is. When written it was specifically tailored to the fact that Roland Barthes, spoke French Alergian, and was raised in a french education system. It had nothing to do with the reader reinterpreting text, and everything to do with the fact that French was the national language in a colonized nation, and Barthes thought that had an effect on the ability for people within his country to write political literature.

@balintkovacs4089 9 ай бұрын

Chaucer was the first medieval author to write his poems and epics in English rather than Latin, so him being the crowd plaser manager is the perfect take on the historical figure :D You might be familiar with his most famous work, the Canterbury Tales. Also, the "interesting shoulder" on the armor was an addition specifically for jousting to protect the face even more. Generally speaking jousting armor was the heaviest and most restrictive armor used in the medieval times, because it was made to minimize damage by removing the weak spots of combat armor-- even though most of those weak spots were there to allow mobility on the battlefield. That torture device is called a pillory. Gallows were for hanging. The modern style elements of the movie were entirely intentional :)

I was shocked she had never heard of Chaucer. He was required reading in high school when I was in high school. This was in 1984. What are they not teaching in schools now?

@Native_Creation 9 ай бұрын

Exactly, Norman French and Latin were popular at this time because English was still seen as too vulgar and not poetic or "sophisticated" enough for Nobility. Chaucer is known as the father of English because he proved it could still be poetic and elegant, and one of the first to really use rhyme. The title of the film "A Knight's Tale" is a play on some of his popular works ("The Canterbury Tales", "The Pardoner's Tale", "The Wife of Bath's Tale", etc.). Chaucer's depiction in the film is quite brilliant because most "writers" in the time still had to give performances or speak out loud, as most people were illiterate. So the grand speeches to the crowds is very fitting and how most of these Tales would have been shared.

@balintkovacs4089 9 ай бұрын

@@Native_Creation I wouldn't say that most people were illiterate per se, since that depends on what you define as illiterate - for example, somebody might understand runic script just not Latin script - but rather that apart from church sermons and travelling minstrels, such performances were the type of entertainment available at the time. And executions too of course. As for the language popularity, I think it was the more prosaic reason that English nobility at the time was still largely of Norman origins, and clergymen - which in the case of bishops and such also overlapped with aristocratic living standards - spoke Latin; so those were almost the only the languages they understood in the first place.

The modern style elements aren't just intentional, they're meta. If you look at any artwork from the renaissance and earlier, where they are depicting an aincent battle, they always show them in (then) modern armour and fortifications, rather than what they actually looked like. It's an anachronism *exactly* like the anachronisms in this movie, done either to make things relatable (or unintentional because the artists didn't know better).

Not sure why you should consider it a "guilty" pleasure. It's a fun movie that doesn't take itself seriously. Nothing to be ashamed of in loving it. EVERY person I've seen watch this film, has enjoyed the hell out of it. So I think you are pretty much in the big demographic for loving this film. I don't know of anyone that actually dislikes it.

Bettany's Chaucer absolutely steals every scene. He just chews up the script. He's so good. lol. There's a great line between Ademar and someone else in there. Ademar asks him "How would you beat him?" "In his bed, while he sleeps. On a horse, with a lance, he's unbeatable." Prince Edward at the stocks... just knowing how loyal his friends were to him was enough to judge his character. But throwing in the interactions they had jousting. His respect for him, in the first, and even knowing who he was going at him in the 2nd. He earned his knighthood with his character. This movie is just so good. It checks all the boxes.

One of the things i love most about this movie is that its a modern time sports movie peice of when it was made, and its was just set in medieval times, and its shows just how endearing and true the story is. Also when William follows his feet home, someone cuts onions....AnD iTs Me!! 😭😭😭

Sadly, I feel like that is one of the kinds of movies that just don't seem to be made any more. You get the Oscar bait, you get the utterly commercial blockbusters, but I miss the quirky gambles, the smaller films that aren't trying to change the world or set records for gross revenue, they just exist because someone thought they'd be fun!

So fun fact about the little hype speech that Chauser gives after William wins in the sword competition. The extras were not fluent in English, so they weren't sure when they were supposed to cheer and missed their cue because they were so focused on Paul Bettany. So they shot the little look over to Roland and him cheering to get the rest of the crowd to cheer and it was one of the best examples of turning a bad take into a great gag i have ever seen

This movie won’t win any awards but I’ve always enjoyed it. I’m a geek for anything medieval and this movie has a wholesome modern style to it. It has a charming cast. It’s just a fun movie to sit back and relax and enjoy during a rainy day. Recognize Robert Baratheon? 😊

@BigSeth1090 9 ай бұрын

Y’know, this may be my absolute favorite “guilty pleasure” movie. First saw it as a boy, during that phase many of us get where we’re obsessed with knights and the medieval and all that. And it’s just a fun, wholesome, uplifting movie that never gets old even after quite a few viewings. I’ve even been known to quote Bettany’s Chaucer when hyping up a friend, or Tudyk’s “I’ll make your entrails your extrails!” It ain’t Best Picture material, but it’s amazing entertainment

I love the little bit early on about "We're on the road to Rouen(ruin)!" Also, it's fairly unimportant but if memory serves this movie takes place specifically in 1372. It lines up with what is basically a blank, unknown space of about 10 yearsin the real Chaucer's life, but also the movie specifically uses music from "the 70s", since it takes place in "the 70s"

If you notice, the "Interesting shoulder patch" (Which is called a pauldron) is raised much higher. That is to protect against the lance if it bounces and scrapes across the chest armor, instead of breaking. By raising the pauldron way above the neck line, you minimize the risk of the lance breaking on the edge of the armor and tearing the throat of the knight out.

This is one of my "when I come across it on TV, no matter how far along it is, I'm watching it!" movies. 12:17 - I can't believe you didn't react to Chaucer's declaration that Sir Ulrich was the "seeker of *SERENITY!* You call yourself a fan of Alan Tudyk but missed that easter egg.🐣 16:18 - Don't you LOVE the medieval music at the first dance?🥰 It was hauntingly familiar, then I heard a faint "angel..." and wondered... The dance is brilliant and David Bowie fit right in. I'm glad this fun romp in the middle ages made your day brighter. 🛡Stay Golden!

So happy that you enjoyed this as much as it deserved. It is quirky for all the right reasons, and when they made this, they really did throw out the rule book, retained just enough to be period, and at the same time, gave it a modern edge. My favourite scene of all is the first time they encounter Chaucer (a real writer btw, 14th century, who predates Shakespeare. Fun fact, my surname appears in Chaucer's 'The Miller's Tale') who is nonchalantly walking through the countryside completely nekkid.

I love this movie. Great reaction Natalie. I love that William showed more knightly qualities then the villain. 1) Compassion / Sacrifice - When he saved his announcer by paying off his debt putting others before himself. 2) Respect and honor - He stated that the woman he loved was not the target but the arrow. Meaning she isn't an object, but the reason he fights. 3) Sacrifice - telling his friends to let people have them since he wasn't really a knight. Showing both compassion and sacrifice. 4) Respect, Kindness and Mercy - Showing mercy to the Prince when he was injured. 5) Courage - He refused to run even with odds against him. He never wavered and would fight to end. These are qualities we value even to this day.
