"A Knight's Tale" with Brian Gill (Mad About Movies, @BGill12)

Paul Bettany is throwing 110mph in this one, folks. 2001's "A Knight's Tale" is newly streaming on Netflix, and might be even more rewatchable now than it was twenty years ago. Brian Gill from the Mad About Movies podcast joins Big Screen Sports to discuss the film, and why its take on bringing modern music and sports themes to the 1300's works really well. We talk a powerhouse performance by Paul Bettany (and why his ensuing picks make us sad), realistic (we think?) jousting action, and a stacked cast that really makes this one go. Also, four(!) Big Chill moments. Follow Brian on Twitter @BGill12 and check out his podcasts, Mad About Movies and Spread the Floor.Big Screen Sports is brought to you by DirectTV NFL Sunday Ticket, BetOnline.ag and TheraOne CBD.
