While it may have been produced in 2001, this movie about a medieval jousting champion seeks to span a thousand year gap. By blending classic rock, blatant feminism, and other modern elements into the background of the Dark Ages, the consistency of human nature is emphasized. The eternal themes of the universal human experience are artfully and entertainingly examined by the motley cast, later to become Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, and eventually, this incredibly re-watchable movie.
