A Knight’s Tale was definitely the most modern movie about ancient times I have seen. The movie is set in medieval times, but in one of the very first scenes everyone is in the jousting arena chanting Queen’s hit song, “We Will Rock You.” It was really funny but it just didn’t seem to fit the whole setting of the movie. Heath Ledger is in this movie, and I don’t believe that they could have found a better actor to play the cocky knight-in-love role. And his love interest, Laura Fraser, was great also. There are hardly any objectionable elements in this movie. The entire film is built around the concept of medieval sports, mainly jousting, so you do see some knights getting smacked with lances and whatnot, but there is nothing graphic shown. There is a kiss between the two love birds, but once again there is nothing beyond that. It’s a great movie.
