Ep. 504: A Knight’s Tale (2001)

Mount up fiends and familiars, we're taking it back to 2001 to talk about knights, jousts, and Geoffrey Chaucer—that's right, it's A Knight's Tale. Sometime after being told there were 10 things hated about him but before becoming the clown prince of crime, Heath Ledger took to horse back in an attempt to change his stars. This week, we talk about needledrops and soundtracks, changing destiny, literary intertextuality, and much more as we discuss A Knight's Tale.  TIMESTAMPS 00:30 - Introductions and Synopsis 02:37 - Quick A Knight's Tale Reviews 19:09 - Expanding the Syllabus 32:51 - Analysis 57:36 - Shelf or Trash 1:02:19 - Wrap Up and Next Week's Film
