A Knight’s Tale (2001)
Remember the first time you watched ‘A Knight’s Tale’ and felt the thrill as Queen’s ‘We Will Rock You’ blared through a medieval jousting tournament? That’s the kind of magic we’re recapturing in this episode of ‘I Freaking Love That Movie.’ With hilarious Rebooted crewmate Michael Rogers joining our adventure, we dissect Heath Ledger’s charismatic portrayal of William Thatcher and Mike’s memorable mix-up of Rufus Sewell with Joaquin Phoenix from ‘Gladiator.’ It’s a delightful romp through a film that doesn’t let historical accuracy get in the way of a good time, all while paying homage to the star-studded cast and their unforgettable performances.
Ever wondered about the easter eggs hidden within ‘A Knight’s Tale’? We chat about the cheeky Nike swoosh on the armor and Rufus Sewell’s deliciously villainous charm. Our conversation is peppered with laughs over deleted scenes and the physical comedy that had us in stitches, like William’s grand entrance to the church on horseback. Plus, Alan Tudyk fans, this one’s for you—Emily’s request for Tudyk appreciation is granted as we share some backstage tales and invite listeners to our lively Facebook group.
