    3:21 Reminds me of an exchange between wizards in Terry Pratchett's book, Reaper Man.
    'People can be turned into zombies, you know,' said the Lecturer in Recent Runes, in conversational tones.
    'You don't even need magic. Just the liver of a certain rare fish and the extract of a particular kind of root.
    One spoonful, and when you wake up, you 're a zombie.'
    'What type of fish?' said the Senior Wrangler.
    'How should I know?'
    'How should anyone know, then?' said the Senior Wrangler nastily. 'Did someone wake up one morning and say, hey, here's an idea, I'll just turn someone into a zombie, all I'll need is some rare fish liver and a piece of root, it's just a matter of finding the right one? You can see the queue outside the hut, can't you? No. 94, Red Stripefish liver and Maniac root . . . didn't work. No. 95, Spikefish liver and Dum-dum root . . . didn't work. No. 96 -'
    'What are you talking about?' the Archchancellor demanded.
    'I was simply pointing out the intrinsic unlikelihood of -'
    'Shut up,' said the Archchancellor, matter-of-factly.

      Considering how many Arthurian tales varied wildly in their "endings" (and details) depending on the given version, I thought it was appropriate that this film ended on a slightly ambiguous note. We American audiences hate an unclear ending (e.g. the literary ending for The Shawshank Redemption), even when telling that last little bit is unnecessary given the message of the story. I think that this was one of those, just my opinion of course :-)

    Beautiful movie, stunning directing and I absolutely LOVE Dev but goddamn was it a slog to get through. The reviews were hyping it up like it was the second coming of Jesus on film and I honestly think there's a good movie in there if you cut out about 45 minutes. I ended up just being annoyed for most of the movie that every time he would get back on track to the search and I thought the movie would pick up some steam he'd stop suddenly and I'd have to wait out the endless shots of scenery and travelling that while aesthetically pleasing just made for bizarre pacing. I couldn't wait for it to end honestly.

    • @charles2241
      @charles2241 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree with most of what you said, however I find something that bored me so outstandingly, has NO direction to call it good directing, and no, seeing the same ol' slog over and over, isn't beautiful.
      One fundamental problem I had here though, whence talking about the boring journey. I just about went out of my mind when he arrives to the stiff dude, and can't stand he's going to sit there and do nothing (but earlier movie should had prepared me for the notion, that when you think things can't get worse, and make less sense, it will), but then I "think" I figured that terribly exciting part out, so the question is, why did he wait a day? The answer is, because he got there a day too quickly. Okay, fine, but get this. He started the journey by horse, not knowing his horse would be stolen, so he ends up walking most of the way.
      If I understand correctly, he wasn't entirely sure where he was going, but maybe just a general feel. Even so, he has to be timely here, so maybe he left a day or two early, to allow for some screwing around time in case of...... well, anyway. Let's say he left early enough to get there, when he did, Christmas Eve. How did he get there on time, even early for crying out loud, when he lost his horse for so much of the journey? This movie was made to torture people, and the illogic of what I described, just shows the dedication to torture the audience further when he finally gets there. It's like stealing a kid's candy and then throwing it to somebody else, who in turn throws it to somebody else, in a game of keepaway. I liked Wonder Woman more than this tripe (and that's LOW). The very end was sort of cute, but it sure the hell wasn't worth all the torture.
      I'm actually a bit surprised I didn't walk out, but I thought the end might make it worth it, and it didn't, of course.

      You have missed the meanings of the poem that the movie represents. The poem has been a mystery for centuries; it comes from folk tales and myths set down in the Middle Ages. It has many interpretations. English majors everywhere have studied it’s confusing elements; it’s about finding honor in oneself rather than having it bestowed by others. Dev Patel is very good in this.

    I went into the theater with high expectations... I left with a headache. Not sure if it was just the one I was in, but the volume control was all over the damned place and at times physically painful to my ears...
    Visually the movie was good, I quite liked a lot of the imagery but the 'plot' was a chaotic mess of... well... nonsense. How things kept seemingly appearing when there was no reason why they might, things like the scene of his death in the woods... The giants... All in all, I'd rather have not spent the time nor money to see it, as it smacked of art for the same of art, and not a story told to entertain, enlighten, or in the most common of legends, to tell a story with a message. The only lesson that I think it imparted was 'reap what you sow'.

    Important clarification: the film's chosen pronunciation of Gawain is "gow-an", as in "cow". The "r" thrown in by King Arthur is just the actor's accent, which the director kept in because he liked it. This matters (to me at least!) because the "Gawain" we virtually always hear spoken as it looks is generally agreed by scholars to be 50/50 that pronunciation or the alternative "Gowan", historically; neither is fully right or wrong, but you don't hear the latter very often. And that matters to me because my father's name was Gowan, and we always half-joking talked about how everyone said the knight's name wrong, and then this film came out and chose the "correct" pronunciation and I had tears in my eyes every time I heard it and...thanks movie, you got me all blubbery again!

    This film was just loaded with all sorts of goodies, enough that I'd hope everyone could appreciate the filmmaking even if the telling itself wasn't to the tastes of many individuals (no judgement!). My favorite bit was seeing the way fame and acclaim led to Gawain's painted portrait looking so traditionally heroic...and then the camera obscura, another form of "portrait" that lays bare the subject, presented Gawain as haunted and human and anything but heroic. It was all in keeping of part of the film's primary message...so well done!

    As someone who's read the original text, I was sorely hoping this movie would be, you know, FUNNIER. Like, on purpose? I was expecting more Wes Anderson and SIGNIFICANTLY LESS Yorgos Lanthimos. For instance, that xmas party in the beginning was BORING AF, and I was sorely hoping that it meant the Green Knight was going to finally SHAKE SOME SHIT UP when he barged in... but no, he was largely SILENT when he showed up... because most of HIS lines of dialogue were given to Guenevere, NOT to move the story forward, but rather to give her more to do and make women in the audience feel more "included" in a story that does not happen to have a lot of strong female characters. The strongest female character in the text is the Hunter's wife - I'm sorry, the guy who wrote it wasn't very good at writing female characters unless they were foils to male characters. Speaking for myself, as a female fan of the fantasy genre, I would rather watch a TOTAL SAUSAGE FEST than endure that much virtue-signalling.
    Between that general f**kery, the dumbing-down of the story of St. Winifred, the highly-unnecessary mushroom trip (not that I'm judging anything other than whether it serves the overall story, which it DOESN'T), and the clipped ending of the movie (that doesn't even include the story's original punchline!)... THIS movie is one of the few since my local movie theater reopened that made me actively think, "Goddamn, I LITERALLY CANNOT WAIT for CinemaSins to TEAR THIS MOVIE A NEW ONE!"
    THANK YOU, CINEMASINS!!!!!!!

      The movie spent so much time in showing the symbolism, but it does not let the audience ask "what is the alternative? Where did those giants come from? were they always there? What if whoever challenges the knight refuses to strike unless the Knight actually fights? Who cares if the Fox is gone? The one thing I found amusing was the very last line "Off with your head." In hind sight, it is a play on words. Instead of decapitation, the Knight is literally sending Gawain off...WITH his head attached. I WISHED the movie had levity, having creative approached with the text; because it is an absolutely gorgeous looking movie

    I saw and loved _The Green Knight_ movie when it came out. I concur that Ralph Ineson has an outstanding voice; James Earl Jones level.
    Considering referencing _The Witch_ / _The VVitch,_ I was surprised you didn't mention (didn't notice?), that, as with Ralph Ineson, Katie Dickie, his wife from that film, was also in this film.
    Also surprised you don't double-dip with the "one year hence" line in the audio outtakes, also using the Jeffrey Combs _Re-Animator_ line, "Who's going to listen to a talking head; get a job at a sideshow..." 😉

    I HATED this movie. Thanks so much for roasting it!
    Although I could write a TL;DR rant about the countless bad choices that gave us this confusing, steaming pile of cinematic excrement, I will limit myself to just one: the king’s baffling decision to pronounce “Gawain” as “Garwin.”
    I studied medieval literature in both my undergraduate and graduate programs (German major; English minor), including Middle English in general and _Sir Gawain and the Green Knight._ Now, that was decades ago, and my memory isn’t what it used to be, but THERE IS NO REASON TO THINK “GAWAIN” WAS PRONOUNCED “GARWIN” that I can recall from my studies.
    I can see “ga-WAYNE” or “ga-WAHN,” and I believe it’s even spelled “Wawain” once in the poem-but never had I imagined a pronunciation that adds an R to the name.
    Apparently the actor decided that on his own, and the director was so in awe of the actor and the “warmth” he brought to the role of King Arthur that the aberrant pronunciation was allowed to stand unquestioned.
    Maybe talk to an actual professor of medieval literature or Middle English instead of allowing one of the actors to make up an off-the-wall pronunciation of the main character’s name that no one else ends up using? I was momentarily confused, wondering who “Garwin” was when Arthur sent for him.
    I get that film makers have (and should have) the freedom to reinterpret classic stories from a fresh perspective, but this movie just trashed the source material IMHO, and this mangling of the protagonist’s name is just one small piece of evidence for the wild disregard for the original that characterizes this movie. What a disappointment.
    (And for the record, I thought the portrayal of Arthur was wooden and lifeless, not “warm.”)

      There is a delicious irony in any fan of Arthurian tales perceiving that any given adaptation is taking many liberties, given that the entire canon is nothing but adaptations of long-developing stories that each brought their own details to the telling.
      If you check out what the filmmakers have said about their intent with this, they knowingly set out to tell the story with many vague elements, in keeping with many of the tellings of old. This actually nailed the heart of the ancient literary approaches - we're just not used to seeing that done on film!

    • @redsoxu571

      @Brandocious Fair enough. My suggestion is to ponder whether any movie is completely garbage if it does some things very well, and I think you like most can speak to it being a visual masterpiece. If you personally found those visuals wasted on what felt like an incoherent or weak or whatever plot, who's to argue with that opinion, right? Nobody can ever be wrong to not personally enjoy a film!

    • @redsoxu571

      @@steelygreye9187 I personally loved the film and have enjoyed it multiple times already. I also know that slower, contemplative, character driven films tend to not appeal to many moviegoers, and there's nothing wrong with that.
      The Transformers movies made oodles of money from appealing to countless people, and I personally find them to be unwatchable (due to lousy characters meshed with incoherent visual spectacle, again in my opinion). I went on the Transformers ride at Universal in Florida and found it just as incoherent and unfun, whereas the Spider-Man ride (which was the same type of ride) was a blast thanks to coherent action.
      To each his own. Just because someone doesn't care for this type of film doesn't mean it's unwatchable. How many people find Shakespeare to be intolerable these days (my wife doesn't care for his works), and yet it's beloved by countless folks. But I return to my original point: the intent of the filmmakers was to represent the essence of the medieval tale in film form, and I think they nailed it. Whether that result appeals to any given single person is up to that person's individual preferences.

There is some intentional ambiguity, but that doesn't make it difficult to follow. And even if it did, that isn't necessarily a bad thing...The Lighthouse is ambiguous to a fault and at times very difficult to follow, because the film is loaded with allegory and unreliable narrators. It's an amazing film for what it seeks to be. I won't fault anyone for feeling that isn't his or her cup of tea - I expect it, really - but I will sneer at anyone who tries to denounce it outright. Amazing to some, not at all worth it to others, in between for still more. Don't fault a film for going down the non-beaten path, especially when such films offer amazing cinematography and other visuals to go with their "different" story approach.

It's not BAD, it's just...who cares? I only saw it because (1) rare case of a brown man in the lead of a fantasy film (2) I studied this story in college, but the movie itself is dull and devoid of anything. It's like this was just an excuse to make long, slow, artsy visuals. And that's fine! It works for others, just not for me.
