Episode 42 - The Green Knight

I have Nannina back on the show in order to discuss recent Arthurian arthouse horror fantasy oddity The Green Knight (David Lowery, 2021). After a bit of preamble chat about Foundation (Apple TV, 2021-) N.B. I'd say we start getting sliiiiiightly spoilery about The Green Knight from about the 45 min mark, and it sort of ramps up from there (esp. in pt 2). We don't discuss the specifics of the ending at all until the last 20 mins, though. And I don't spoil Foundation at all, because Nannina hasn't seen it yet. 0.00 Intro/preamble on Foundation 0.16 our background with Arthurian legend and adaptations/The Green Knight 0.59 The Green Knight in more depth/specific scenes/the ending You can find the show on Twitter at @EGoat_pod (or tweet at me on @D_Faggiani) and email us with any feedback on [email protected].

Nannina is a screenwriter, who procrastinates at writing by going down deep research wormholes into alternate dimensions. She supports her writing habit by making coffee, and can be found on Twitter via @NanninaGilder talking about early women filmmakers.  All original intro, outro and other incidental music recorded and made available by kind permission of Richard Gilbert.
