My favorite movie would have to be A Knight's Tale starring Heith Ledger. The first time i saw this movie, I was with my brother. We about died from laughter. Afterward we had to go out and buy this movie and I swear we watched it at least three times that week. I'd have to give this movie two thumbs up. Not only is the movie hilarious but it also has a lot of action and there's even a romance in the movie for the women.
The movie is about a servant named William who grew up poor and worked for a knight. Fortunately for William, his master dies and he is presented with the opportunity to take his place in a tournament. From that day on, William is determined to change his stars and become a knight himself. After finally convincing his two wacky friends its a good idea, he trains to become a knight.
On their way to the first tournament, they come across a rather unfortunate individual who has a gambling problem and seems to have lost all his clothes. William takes him in and comes to find out that the poor fellow is a writer and can counterfeit royal papers, proving that William is indeed royalty. Together, William and his three stooges travel abroad attending various tournaments. It is at these tournaments that William meets his fair lady, Jasoline, or as he first calls her his "sexy fox". It is then that the story becomes a romantic comedy and a battle between two men to see who can win the girl.
William's contender for Jasoline's affection is another knight who dresses in all black. I believe the black represents some type of evil, and William is the white knight who is suppose to save the day and when the girl. William does indeed win the girl and defeats the black knight.
By far one of the best movies ever. And now that Heith Ledger has died I'm sure it'll become a classic.

I enjoyed this movie as well. Paul Bettany! That's who I was trying to think of. http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0183790/
ReplyDeleteI love when the modern music breaks out at the dance. This a movie that doesn't take itself too seriously and is cheerful about it.
