Alan Tudyk is a gem! There’s a scene that I love from a doc about the voice acting on Moana. Cuts to Tudyk doing chicken sounds (he played the chicken), when he slyly looks into the camera and says “I went to Julliard”.
That movie has perfect casting. Everyone in it is exactly right for their parts. There is a B movie feel that I can’t quite put my finger on but it is an outright excellent film, one of my personal favorites.
A Knight’s Tale. Not only is it a good movie but it was my introduction to Paul Bettany and Alan Tudyk and they were brilliant in it.
Lets not forget Rufus Sewell, who is such an excellent villain

I just can’t get past the dance scene.
I love it. Starts off cringe but then once the Golden Years kicks in it’s magical.

“I will fong you. I will fong you until your entrails become extrails! I will—pain! Lots of pain!”
I do believe I’ll be watching this movie again today. 😁
Danny Boyd wrote an excellent video essay on A Knight’s Tale. I too always wonder why there’s always someone cutting onions when I choose to watch.
Because you have been judged, and likely not found wanting if you don’t suppress feelings.
And it left its mark on renaissance jousts everywhere. Always hear We Will Rock You at so many different ren fairs.
Thank you for posting this so I didn’t have to.
Just a gem of a movie.
