A Knight's Tale

A Knight's Tale (2001) follows William Thatcher, a squire who seizes his destiny when his master dies in a tournament melee. Assuming his fallen knight's identity, William navigates the chivalric circuit, facing challenges that test his mettle and his conscience. Amidst jousting and pageantry, he encounters Jocelyn, a free-spirited poet who stirs his heart and complicates his quest for a noble title. The film blends romance and comedy in a period setting, where the stakes of medieval competition are as much about personal growth as they are about glory.
