A Knight's Tale | William's Return For The Final Match (ft. Heath Ledger) | Cinem Quest bit.ly/Subscri...
"That's your name WIll. Sir William Thatcher. Your father heard that." - My favorite line in the whole movie.
Definitely one I hear and think, "yep, that's my favourite line."
...unhelpfully, that happens about thirty times during the movie but in the running's still impressive.
this movie have several great lines / scenes, that are beyond of a simple romantic comedy. The one of the real knight tilt when should withdraw, or show mercy to keep the honor of his rival.
I think the most powerful line in the film!
@@rodrigoantoniorojo2725 Those are fantastic moments - as well as, for sure, in line with the Chivalric Ideal of the day: courage, genuine honour and fealty to his Prince rather than sycophancy and, indeed, mercy.
Now, not all knights lived up to that Ideal by a wide margin - plenty only sparing those who were wealthy enough to pay enormous ransoms for safe passage home but it was nonetheless remarked upon and admired as knightly at the time when it was extended to commoners.
EDIT: Oops, forgot the actual point I was going to make: the scenes are great and _do_ speak to true chivalry but James Purefoy also utterly knocked his scenes out of the park, which helped a fair bit.
Agreed!
One of my favorite moments....when his dad, with tears in eyes, asked,
" And did he follow his feet?"
My late husband and I watched this movie so much...one of our favorites.
Miss you, Charles.
I tear up at that scene every time. Such a good scene.
@@picallo1 Yep. Every time, I think I'm ready - I think I've seen it enough times that it won't have the same impact.
...but I could watch the film a thousand times and still tear up at that scene every time. The acting's too good... and I don't really want to analyse what makes it work so brilliantly beyond that. It's just perfect.
I talked my younger brother, who's 55 now and never watches R-rated and even most PG13 movies, into renting this movie. At this point in the movie, I glanced over and saw him and his wife with their faces covered in tears. I smiled to myself and knew I made a good decision. He loved the movie so much, that for the next few years he gave the DVD away as a Christmas gift.
@@markforbus6794 what a great memory. ⚘⚘ Thanks for sharing💜⚘💜
If he was loved by a woman like you he was the luckiest sob alive
I love that Edward gives zero fucks that Geoff is walking along the balcony in front of him XD
Or standing on his chair
@@charlesmillard596 LOL fr
He looks rather amused by it tbh XD
At Comic Con in 2009 I was in an elevator when at the next floor James Purifoy got on. I said “Prince Edward!” and ended up receiving the biggest bear hug I ever got from a man. You tend to let your guard down a bit at SDCC.
What an awesome encounter!
I would’ve shouted “Do you deny it!?”
Don't feel bad
Your father heard that
Never happened.
William unhorsed that jerk with pure rage, the lance was just to make sure it hurt.
I like that! 👍👍
I love how genuinely thrilled Prince Edward is when Sir William wins.
Marcus Antonius loved that stuff! ;)
We have watched this movie at least 10 times and never tired of it. Should have received way more accolades!
One of my top ten all-time favourite movies. RIP Heath. Damn, I love this movie!
Me to 😢
heat a great dame actor ha still scares me with the joker
Whats ther rest of your top ten?
@@MemeMartialArts Since it's also almost certainly in my top ten, I can certainly have a go at trying to remember what the full list was last time I thought about it (#1 is fixed, the rest are unranked - I must stress that they're not the _best_ ten movies I've seen - most are either legitimately very good or far better than they had any right to be for a few different reasons - a couple just bring me joy):
1) Stardust
2) Kingdom of Heaven - Director's Cut
3) Seven Psychopaths
4) Mamma Mia 2
5) A Knight's Tale
6) Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
7) The Last of the Mohicans
8) Begin Again
9) The Last Samurai
10) Independence Day
Huh, fewer odd ducks in there than I was expecting, which does kind of make Mamma Mia 2 stick out like a sore thumb but I don't think the phrase, "better than it had any right to be," has ever applied more to a movie and, well, I love me some Abba.
Honourable Mentions:
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy - they only work to their fullest together and I couldn't justify three spots.
Moana - easily my favourite 'Disney' Disney movie but Guardians 2 represents my love of taking a single theme and exploring it from many different character perspectives a bit better (and, against all expectations, is the only film in my entire life to make me cry in the theatre).
13th Warrior - I love it dearly but it is _kind of_ a complete mess while I love The Last Samurai for many of the same reasons and it's far better executed.
The Princess Bride - it's _probably_ a better movie than Stardust but Stardust is easily the movie I've seen that most successfully embodies its spirit - and it _really_ deserves to be remembered for more than its theme song (which was perfectly fine and all but 'Waiting for a Star to Fall' by Boy Meets Girl was right there).
@@Pineappolis i also love stardust. We have a similar taste.
You have been weighed
You have been measured
And you have been found wanting
Love that one
There are very similar lines in biblie, a book of Daniel. I imagine that was inspired in that
Very under-rated movie, visually its stunnimg and beautifully shot. On top of that you have not only Heath Ledger at his best but also the wonderfully talented Paul Bettaney too.
Just an all round fab movie!!!
Agreed! ❣️❣️❣️
Yeah. Missed out on a lot of movies over the last fifteen years since he's been dead. :(
@@Thymus 😥😥😥
Amazing how his injury miraculously improved after he won. Remarkable what adrenaline will do for you!
Love this movie! ♥️♥️
A knights tale is a movie u stop and watch every time u turn the channal and its on. Same as gladiator
You can see the stars changing right before his father's eyes
One of my fave parts on the movie , thanks for sharing friend !
😊😊😊😊
He is still being missed RIP Heath Ledger....
God this is a fantastic movie!
Love how they end it with "You shook me all night long" from ACDC😂
R.I.P Heath Ledger 1979-2008.
Here here rip young ledger godspeed taken from us way too young God loves you redeem his soul please.
He died of Drugs.
Be honest, you don't give one care about him. You just want attention.
And what exactly do you mean by that?!
Rest in peace.
The hedge-knight is one of the most powerful stories in all of time.
That's not an accident.
Seen this movie a bunch of times. Just watched it again and never noticed when Williams dad sends him off, the guy he goes with yells at a kid loading his wagon " Easy with that Roland!". Roland and Will met when they were kids and dont even know it.
I don't think it's a case of they never knew, I think that knight is the same knight who dies at the start - Will, Roland and Wat were his squires all the way up to the start of the film.
@@AlexQuill63 and here i thought i had an amazing revalation after seeing this a few dozen times and you just🤯 my mind and made me cuss myself out for not even realizing that!! 🙃
@@Zoo-jc2kw the movie leads you to believe that same knight who took will in is the older one who dies at the start, but it is curious that none of the team seems to care much that their longtime boss is dead. 0 sentimentality about donning his armor and commenting on his deathly smell. he must not have been a good boss
@@StopFlaggingVideos i think thay might be why i never put it together. Usually stuff like that doesnt slip by me, at least on movies i have seen to many times to count. Good call!
@@StopFlaggingVideos I think that was quite evident...they were not the least bit sorry
OMG this movie is unfairly underrated, this is definitely cinema.
How old are you? It was incredibly popular during the 2000s. Everyone my age range knows it, loves it and quotes it all the time.
One of my top 3 favorite heath ledger movies
"Your father heard that. Now go knock the @$$ off that horse."
I see what you did there
Sir William: I'm a commoner who became a knight.
King Robert: 🙂
assuming you mean Robert Baratheon...he was NEVER a commoner
@@Guardian582idiot he’s referring to the two characters being in the same universe, a commoner here then a king in got
1:28 of all the lines that he said, these are the ONLY WORDS that matters in the movie.
I love them and this movie. I miss him so much too, especially in my difficult times.
I love this movie, not just the plot, but that massive GYATT
I wonder if even you know wtf you just said.
What the heck is a GYATT??
His blacksmith was cuter than the others.
Her abilities just added to her allure.
he will have ptsd rest of his life from that Williiaaaaam
😂❤
...if he live long enough for it to ever come up. I mean, he just tried to murder a personal friend of the Black Prince in a way that left incontrovertible evidence after being recalled in disgrace for bringing shame on the crown by, if I remember correctly, letting his free company act like a pack of savages (it's not Game of Thrones so they didn't get into the detail but I imagine it wasn't good).
So, any political capital he had that might has saved his ass already squandered and a fairly impossible-to-explain tip on a jousting lance, elaborately disguised just to make _absolutely_ sure he couldn't claim it was a mistake, stuck in the shoulder of the best buddy of the heir to the Throne. I'd say he'd be lucky if he still had a head by the end of the day.
WILLIAAAAAM!!!!
This is such a fun and wonderful movie...never fails to make me feel better.
This movie had no right being this good.
Beautifully shot, directed, and acted all while featuring a fantastic soundtrack. It was also extremely fun throughout with incredible cast chemistry, and yet deeply heartfelt and emotional. A perfect movie.
Adhemar was initially aiming high. He was going for the head to finish him. Easier to dodge when recognized which William was prepared for. He aimed lower at the last second, maybe as a faint, but that proved his downfall. Will aimed for a sure strike which proved the right choice.
What a great movie! All of it! How do you mix medieval times and AC/DC, AND MAKE IT WORK?! It has to be because Heath Ledger was involved. Man I miss him. What an amazing talent
This clip reminds me of " The Outlaw Josey Wales"
"Now spit"
What a thrilling title for a video! "A Knight's Tale" with Heath Ledger always brings back so many fond memories. The concept of a character like William returning for a final match is packed with excitement and anticipation. It's always exhilarating to witness a culmination of a hero's journey, especially in a setting filled with medieval charm and chivalry. The idea of a final match in such a story usually promises a showcase of courage, honor, and skill - the very essence of knightly tales! 🏰✨
And Roland was so inspired by William's success that he took up the war hammer, killed Rhaegar Targaryen at the Trident, and became King Robert Baratheon.
01:49 Woman in blue to the left of williams father is the most beautiful woman i have ever seen.
He got rocked off that horse
“Your father heard that…”😢🥲damn you, Wat…♥️ I’m not crying, y’all are…😊
Rufus Sewell was a wonderful villian in this film.
Una carga de un verdadero caballero, épica y magistral...
Its great to see. the younger days of King Robert of the house Baratheon.. Love the movie ;)
It’s been a while since I’ve seen this movie but this scene never leaves my mind everytime I watch a Jousting Match this scene fills my brain and I love it
I miss heath. He was a good man
"Your father heard that"....fantastic scene!!! AIM HIGH!!!
Good flick. Always enjoy to watch.
This movie is one of the purest form of joy in a package
Fantastic movie. R.i.p heath ledger
If Count Ademar's Herald isn't cast as Lord Farquaad in the live action Shrek, I'll still watch it. But I will be disappointed.
Wicked good movie 🎦 and great music 🎶
Sowa ta3 khawla big voice 👌
Last one should have been “you got knocked tf out” 😂😂😂😂
😂
A hearty thanks to the investors who took a chance on a campy medieval dramedy with a silly plot, virtually no bloodshed, and set to a modern rock soundtrack. It totally worked.
Alan Tudyk rules
William jousted without armor. Imagine if he got hit, even if he won. He woulda died in front of his father as his only son. Can you imagine how devastating that would have been?
well,if we are delving into realism William´s wound would have to get inspected and upon retrieving the tip which was designed to pierce the armor and thus was illegal,would have the jerk disqualified
@@r3l1csvk I imagine its glazed over because it would have stopped the fight and they already knew that the tip was rigged when he got injured. He chose to just ignore calling foul which might have made his win seem less earned. I dont think the story with the prince being happy and the jerk being knocked on his butt with him getting the girl makes sense if a doctor just comes out and announces a disqualification. I could imagine a knight fighting through his wounds to earn a maidens love.
Dude....really? U think nobody realizes that?
Pretty sure its supposed to be symbolic. He's not jousting as a knight. But as a commoner.
@@saltyk9869 I've watch this film a _lot_ of times and I friggin' missed that. Not strictly a commoner - he _is_ a knight (that is beyond contestation) but as his true self - plain for all to see. Great shout.
It drives me a little bit mad that the critics, who usually go mad for something a bit different, were so split over having all the modern trappings of a modern underdog sports movie overlaid onto a historical setting. It was a damn brave call and works really well for me. Every period piece is romanticised, simplified or dramatised in one way or other; why not crank it up until the knob breaks off? In a way, it's a stroke of genius - it makes historical accuracy a non-issue because it makes no pretence to portray history at all. Other than that, the acting is consistently excellent (I mean, from _everyone,_ - James Purefoy as The Black Prince has to little screen time but practically every second of it is iconic, same with Will's Dad, Shannyn Sossamon has fantastic chemistry with Heath Ledger and fantastic... anti-chemistry with Rufus Sewell, and everyone else goes without saying) the screen play is so full of gems that half the damn film's quotable, it's exceptionally paced after a slightly slow first act, the cinematography is rock solid and matches the tone perfectly and, most impressively, it feels like a coherent movie when some of it should cause wild tonal dissonance.
Yes, it's a popcorn flick you're there for simple emotionality - but there's not a damn thing wrong with that if you do it right. I'll die on the hill of it being a genuinely excellent piece of cinema the likes of which I've never quite seen before or since as well as a feel-good romp (that'll also definitely also make you cry at _least_ once), all of which is to say I can _totally_ see the director intentionally going for that layer of of symbolism. It _also_ works perfectly as the classic underdog sports film "Hail Mary" finish but being both is just yet more damn good filmmaking (it might seem weird to put an over-the-top trope in the 'pros' column but a key part of making fiction in any genre is knowing when to lean into its tropes rather than doing your own thing. The lie being discovered, for example. The narrative just... wouldn't work without it. The measure is _how_ you do it and how you undo it - and the scenes that do each are both perfectly set up and paid off - that's every bit as impressive as a good subversion that still leaves audiences satisfied).
A bit of an essay but that's kind of my point - I feel like there'll be people who would reckon you're overthinking a simple popcorn flick but there's a difference between a by-the-numbers guaranteed-profit franchise movie that's just a paycheque for the people involved and a film like this. The amount of genuine craftsmanship required to make it as good as it was isn't to be underestimated.
RIP Heath !
Always will be one of my favorite movies.
I like the choice of 70s rock music used in the movie.
I loved this film as a child x
one of my favs.
He got a good fonging
Lnaces break on metal. That should have gone straight through his chest w/out armor & out the other side.
You got knock the f out haha
I love this movie
That orange was hers
I named my son William bcs of this movie.....William rulez 👏🍻💪
Reichsmarschall John Smith having some crazy dreams right after that train crash.
He is the same guy as us, from our yard, who was able to reach the heavens and get a star
Just caught the Farting Competition at the end the other day 😂😂😂
“Alright Willy good job, you won the jousting tournament. You’re heareby commanded to raise 50 men-at-arms and meet me in France. Also, taxes are due so… tik-tok.”
heres a question, where did Adamar land since he looks like hes floating on his back instead of on the ground
Great movie 😊
They don’t make movies like this anymore
Man batman vs joker: Renaissance edition looks lit
This the ancestor of Margaret......
A knight s tale
Can this dude ever play the good guy😂😂😂
They don’t make em like they used to.
He was great in Margin Call
Nome desse filme maravilhoso
How to be a hero.
I guess, it was the tank in those days, the bravery still won the day.
Absolutely. Will doesn't keep his Lance braced, he thrusts with it, hitting his opponent before he can get hurt instead.
Same energy as „FREEDOM” from Braveheart :D
Miss you dude 😢 rest in love
Handy ring
Without any bias for this movie. I have to ask what was more emotional, Sir William, OR Lady Brienne? To me thats a hard choice.
No wonder why knights innergarments are like having heavy metals to protect their balls.😁😆😁😁😆😁😆
Unfortunately William died in the opiod crisis of the year 1308.
Конец минутам опять один остался, прости, ты обосрался 😂😂😂
The minutes are coming to an end, I'm alone again, I'm sorry, you shit yourself.😂😂😂
Gosto muito de filmes assim eu gostaria de assistir dartanha e os tres mosqueteiros
0:16 Somebody know who is the blonde girl in white? Thanks.
That would be Prince Edward's wife and future Queen.
@@silus73 I mean, who is the actress? D
WILLIAM!!
only some knights, are true champions...
Nice movie
“You just got knocked da f**k out”
Never thought joker and ultron would work together
At least now you know where he got those scars
Paul Bettany made this movie 😊
paul is such an under-rated actor. He's phenomenal in everything he does.
What a fucking scene!
The storyboard are really great, luckily it did not give a damn when he shouted his name. I thought it will demoted the movie with that shout.
😁😆😁😆😁😆😁😆
Exactly. 3:48
3:23 is he levitating?
Yes; it’s intended to show what Count Ademar is thinking as he falls from his horse. He’s “seeing” William & Co mid-fall, hence the floating.
