The scenes with him and his dad make me cry every time. "That's your name. Sir William thatcher... your father heard that. " the first half is so light hearted that the second half catches you off guard with how emotional you feel.
So many people seem to miss the fact that when she asks what colour his tunic is and Roland seems to be just making it up, he's actually describing the fabric of the tent directly behind her, as he's going to have to make a tunic out of the tent material as soon as she leaves lol
There's also a meta-funny thing where, after people miss that the fabric ISN'T just being made up on the spot (I did), some people aren't sure whether the Black Prince IS just making up shit on the spot when the "ancient royal line" is discovered 🤣🤣
Such a fun movie, and with such a stacked cast. Back then, Heath Ledger, Paul Bettany, and Alan Tudyk weren't well-known. Now people recognize Joker, Vision, and Wash. That knighting scene gets me every time. "This is my word, and as such is beyond contestation." Brave deeds by a good heart earning their reward.
Great reaction, this is just such a charming movie! Geoffrey Chaucer, who Paul Bethany played, was a real life write who is known as the father of English literature. That is partly what he referenced at the end, I think some people miss that.
He's the author who made it "fashionable" for the nobility to speak and read English, a minority did speak English but books were written in Norman-French as English was considered a "poor person" language since the Norman conquest
@@lodrbyroni One of which tales is called The Knight's Tale...this is not based on that, but it has several references to The Canterbury Tales in general.
The man who played his father - Christopher Cazenove - NAILED IT! Being a father myself, I know how he felt. All fathers - and mothers - do, when it comes to their children.
I am glad you loved this film, the chemistry with all of them was fantastic. If you are looking for another fun Middle Aged themed movie, try "Ladyhawke" with Ruter Hauer, Michelle Pfeiffer and Mathew Broderick from the 1980s. It's a fun, mythical adventure.
47:18 to add on your observation about the film panning to a shot of the stars above the William and Jocelyn before the credits is that it specifically references the start of their romance when it pans to the constellation Orion - the Hunter.
I love the way this movie was shot.. The movie is on my tier list because of it.. All the characters feel more involved cause of the way it's shot, it feels like everything is done in one take or with a single camera.. It doesn't cut from one person to another while they are having a conversation. You actually see them all on screen together..
0:59 "I feel like you guys choose a lot of films that, you know, are very sentimental and emotional." If a film doesn't make me cry, it can't earn 5/5 stars!
This and The Princess Bride are two of my all time favorites! Poetry…. Cyrano de Bergerac. Three films to watch. Either the original film 1950 or Roxanne starring Steve Martin and Darryl Hannah (probably Roxanne because it’s set in Modern Times, and is based off the original. It’s a romantic comedy) A more recent version 2021 came out with Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister) as Cyrano! But I haven’t seen it yet. It’s on my watchlist.
Wait... you mentioned GoT and King Robert, but didn't mention Mace Tyrell??? He even sang in this outing as well! I'm too lazy to look it up, but the girl that played his Armorsmith looks a lot like the actress from Season of the Witch.
One of my colleagues is a history professor, and he loves this movie. Because of the anachronisms. When they play the rock music, it makes us react the way the people did back then. The Faire music was their rock music! It's one of my favorite movies. Happy that you watched it and enjoyed it.
This film has a lot of heart, and you can feel the friendship & camaraderie. A wholesome movie that has a mix of action, drama, comedy, romance with a great soundtrack. A real gem of a film.
When Chaucer tells the money lenders that he will vilify them forever, that comes from one of his books. He had a serious gambling problem and included that line in one of his books,
my top2 favourite movie of all time: everybody thinks is a romantic comedy, but really is about a guy chasing his dreams... and in the way, falls in love, met amazing friends, gain favour from that king and ultimately proof that you can actually change the stars
This is of my childhood favorites! Love the characters, the fun energy, comedic moments, Jeffery’s speeches are iconic, and Heath Ledger is sooo good in it! ❤️
No way. This movie is ten times better than Canterbury. Only two decent stories and the rest are terrible. Only notable cause it was different than what was before, not because it’s great. This is not Chaucers knights tale at all. It’s so much better
This is a fantastic movie, pretty funny, Heath Ledger was great in it but, in my eyes, the best actor was Paul Bethany, as Geoffrey Chaucer, he was hilarious in this movie.
I so much love you reacting to movies that I have seen. I really love that you let us , total strangers, see your emotions. And that you HAVE emotions. May you be ever blessed.
One of the best of screen-plays I've ever experienced. It is brilliant. I have watched this one over and over. Great reaction Stef. As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.
When I first saw this I was surprised to hear modern music knowing that this is a medieval based movie. One of the best Heath Ledger movie along with The Dark Night.
Stef … thank you for your honesty and your emotions…your thoughts and humanity …makes it enjoyable watch a movie with you .. your doing a great job .. keep it up ..
Great reaction. Thanks for sharing this. It is one of my favorite movies because it’s fun & inspiring. Glad you enjoyed it & that it touched your heart. Also, thanks for sharing your personal experiences toward the end. I appreciate your work. 👍🏾
This film is a retelling of "A Knight's Tale" from The Canterbuy Tales written by Geoffrey Chaucer. The Paul Bettany character is Geoffrey Chaucer,, which is why he is so eloquent in his introductions, so the tale is told from his perspective. It's a far better film than it should be, due to an outstanding cast doing what great actors do. I refused to see it in a theater because I'm not a fan of campy period pieces with modern music ... I feel it is pandering to a particular audience. I guess it's just a way to get single-minded audiences to learn about great literature, and I found it delightful to watch.
This is by far my favorite movie! I even named my puppy "Sir William Thatcher". Ask the vet, they simply adore my sable Chihuahua, William. I'm a romantic and an empath and could feel your connection with the father and friends' characters. I am a Naturalized immigrant from Mexico and break down when his father sends him with the knight to change his stars. Sacrifice is a keystone to any good father. Keep up the great reactions, I'll be here watching! ❤
Fun fact: they wanted to get more wood splinters when the lances broke, but CGI was too expensive at the time. So they made hollow lances and stuffed them with dry pasta....
One of my all time favourites. An an Aussie, was lucky to watch Heath grow up and his career blossom, thanks for all the memories Heath, legend. If you have not, you need to see his second last role as the Joker ;)
This has been my favorite movie since I’ve been a kid I’ve seen it hundreds of times. Anytime I find out someone hasn’t seen it I force it upon them 😂 to this day every time is see the scene where he is reunited with is father I cry big baby man tears. “And has he followed his feet?” 😢 gets me every time that scene is so well acted and emotional
I know you are watching Game of Thrones as well at the moment so here's a fun bit of trivia that links it with A Knight's Tale. Three years before this movie came out George R.R. Martin wrote a story called The Hedge Knight, about a knight named Duncan The Tall who finds himself in the same predicament as the characters in this film; his mentor passes and he must take his place at a tourney. Brian Helgeland who produced and directed A Knight's Tale is now a part of the GoT spin off writing room and their next project is "A Knight of The Seven Kingdoms" which is about the story of Duncan The Tall. Funny how things come back around 😂
This movie is just so much damn FUN! It's also an incredibly emotional one...the writing is wonderful, the little touches of using modern(ish) music for some of the scenes add to the fun rather than detracting from it, and the cast is just brilliant. All of them, even Rufus Sewell as Count Ademar, are just amazing.
Laura Fraser is an absolute rocket. Something about a beautiful woman, tough and strong, with dirt and soot on her face... As far as Adhemar cheating at the end, tipping his lance like that would have likely ended him in some deep shit. The prince could (and probably would since pretty much everyone thinks he's a douche) strip him of his lands and title under English rule. Those lands and hereditary title would go to William as the aggrieved. He'd have ended up losing a lot more than just his horse.
Great movie. You should also see 10 things I hate about you with Heat Ledger. Also another great love story movie is Roxanne 1987. Also great movies with the guy who plays the bad guy here are Dark City and The Illusionist.
One of my all time favorite movies. Nostalgia level 10,000. I love stories about friendship, and bravery, and kindness, and goodness all standing against terrible odds and they stand together against it anyways. (Edit: Also the Father's acting goes way too hard honestly, I'm almost scared to know why the actor was able to give such a powerful performance, when he says "my boy" as he hugs him crying, I almost die of dehydration)
I'm glad I recommended the movie to you in one of your last live broadcasts. I had doubts about whether you would enjoy it as much as I did, but those tears of emotion gave me the beautiful answer to what I had expected. I couldn't fail to recommend this movie to you, Stefy. Thank you for your recommendation! Greetings from Argentina!
First Knight (1995,) Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991) and Dragonheart (1996) are some other great movies about the middle ages that you should watch next.
For more knights and stuff, check out Kingdom of Heaven (2005) starring, well, everyone, but Orlando Bloom is the main character. It's set during the Crusades, and we follow the efforts of the Christians to defend the newly conquered city of Jerusalem against their most formidable foe, Saladin, while there's also an ongoing power struggle within the Christians themselves. Somewhat based on actual historical events, like the large and sweeping plot points, but of couse the actions and events regarding individual people have been dramatized.
Hello 👋🤗 Miss Stef from the Sunshine 🔆🌞☀️State of Florida 🎥🎙️ This movie with Heath Ledger has a Fantastic Modern Sound Track !!! As always the like button ✅ has been illuminated 😊👍
Great movie. I've seen it many times. Nice reaction, I enjoyed watching your facial expressions 😊and if you had not teared up before the end I would have been surprised 😊. Unfortunately I missed your reaction to the final competition between the 3 guys and the lady.
FUN FACT: This story is loosely based on the life of a real Knight, Sir William Marshal. Said to be the great Knight England ever had and probably it's greatest ever tournament knight. Though he lived 400 years before this period when the tournaments were basically mock battles rather than jousts and he was a poor minor noble rather than a peasant (basically what Count Adhemar thought he was, "a poor country knight, little better than a peasant"). He served five English Kings (though in his long life he met six!) and fought his final battle aged 72 (victorious, obviously) and by which time he was effectively ruling the country as protector to the infant King. His tunic and coat of arms were also green and yellow, like in the film and rather than a Prince, it was the Queen of England, Eleanor of Aquitaine, who was impressed by tales of his bravery when he was only a boy. OK, maybe more than one fun fact lol
A major theme of this movie is that young people have been the same for our entire history. Crowd chants at the games, and dancing to David Bowie is meant to tie us to people 1000 years ago.
The music for this film is odd but very cool. I love your reactions. Yes this is sentimental. One of my favorite movies. The actor playing the herald is Paul Bettany aka Vision and the voice of Jasper in Iron Man.
This movie is always in my top 5. Lightning in a bottle and the cast is amazing. I saw it the first time many years ago when I got stuck staying in with the gf at the time and her friend put this on. I tried so hard not to cry when he 'follows his feet' home. I've seen this 100x since and cry every time lol. Love seeing new people watch this classic!
Some things are impossible no matter how hard you think you can do it. Some things take time to achieve but are still possible. Acknowledging what is truly impossible and possible is the key.
This is a rare one and very very few reactors have reacted to it but another medieval romantic adventure it's called Ladyhawke, you will not be disappointed it's such a good movie
sorry but the way you articulate your emotions, explaining what you went through watching that movie was so you, you are amazing girl, Keep it up Hun x.
The main girl in this movie. I remember during the time this movie came out, there were many actors and actresses like her that for about a 3-5 year period they seemed to be in every movie, then suddenly they seemed to disappear.
Stef remains maybe the best crier in reactions. When she questioned whether she’d cry or not at the beginning I’m sure most of us said either to ourselves or maybe even out loud “yes, you will cry”. I’m sure someone here will have mentioned that the character Geoffrey Chaucer who was played by actor Paul Bettany was actually a real person and probably the most famous British author before Shakespeare came along.
The naked man at the beginning is the actor Paul Bettany the husband of the actress Jennifer Connelly and he is the voice of Tony Starks computer JARVIS in Ironman.
Such a great fun movie. I think it was the way it just loosely used the time and setting but didn't try to go too deep into being a real medieval movie. Think Ren Faire not Re-Enactment. It's completely relaxed, it isn't taking itself especially seriously. The story didn't really depend on the setting at all. It could very easily have a been about a boxer or a racing driver in 1999. It was the cast and the chemistry between that core group of actors that really makes it shine. The very relatable contemporary dialogue and humour, mixed with the period costumes and sets was a completely fresh thing on screen when this movie came out. The music made it unique in its time. A period movie set in any era before the 20th century with a pop/rock soundtrack was practically unheard of.
Wow. You only uploaded this a day ago? What a coincidence! I was just thinking about the ballroom scene and wanted to see if anyone new had watched it.
The scenes with him and his dad make me cry every time. "That's your name. Sir William thatcher... your father heard that. " the first half is so light hearted that the second half catches you off guard with how emotional you feel.
it happens when you write relatable characters with flaws and perks. noone cries for ideal hero that lives a perfect life.
So many people seem to miss the fact that when she asks what colour his tunic is and Roland seems to be just making it up, he's actually describing the fabric of the tent directly behind her, as he's going to have to make a tunic out of the tent material as soon as she leaves lol
One of my favorite easter eggs that everyone misses!
I thought everyone knew that 😮 here to boost your comment to help those that didn't
Yeah, I missed that the first couple of times. Lucky it’s a comfort movie of mine 🙂
I did not notice that. Nice!
There's also a meta-funny thing where, after people miss that the fabric ISN'T just being made up on the spot (I did), some people aren't sure whether the Black Prince IS just making up shit on the spot when the "ancient royal line" is discovered 🤣🤣
We still miss Mr Heath Ledger, very much 🥲
Man, it really is sad, such talent.
Saaame he was an awesome actor and such a nice person!
@@Soundtracks92 I worked with a guy who went to school with him. Everyone thought he was a bit bit of a prick and they used to throw rocks at him.
Actors really do have the power to change lives, I know he changed mine when I first saw the dark Knight years ago
@@Flesharrower THEY threw rocks at him and thought HE was the prick? Just let that sink in.
"The protector of Italian virginity!"...
Paul with those speeches, always a win.
Considering how much fun this movie is, there are a surprising number of times it hits you right in the feels
Such a fun movie, and with such a stacked cast. Back then, Heath Ledger, Paul Bettany, and Alan Tudyk weren't well-known. Now people recognize Joker, Vision, and Wash.
That knighting scene gets me every time. "This is my word, and as such is beyond contestation." Brave deeds by a good heart earning their reward.
You forgot King Robert Baratheon from Game of Thrones as well. This cast was stacked.
James Purefoy, the Black Prince, is also a great actor. I love his Solomon Kane movie.
I have watched this movie for 20 years and I still cry. Thanks for sharing your reaction Stef.

The Canterberry Tales

This is my comfort movie. I've seen this one more than almost every movie.
The man who played his father - Christopher Cazenove - NAILED IT! Being a father myself, I know how he felt. All fathers - and mothers - do, when it comes to their children.
Guy has like 2 minutes on screen and is more memorable than almost every acting performance I've ever seen.
....I never realized King Robert Baratheon was in this movie until now haha
He was also in a short-lived sitcom called "Still Standing" too, and I thought he was great in that.
6:00 - And Mace Tyrell!
YES STEPH!!! I always come back to this movie to put a spring in my step when I'm feeling a bit cynical about the world.
Rest In Peace Heath Ledger

@@erickknutz5599 The tv show?
@@yewnork The Order (2003) starring Heath Ledger, Mark Addy, and Shannyn Sossamon.... pretty much the full main cast of A Knight's Tale.

Another good Heath Ledger filmed one of my favorites of his is "Four Feathers"
Great movie!!! Vision, Robert Baratheon and Wash all help The Joker win over his love!! 😊
Don't forget about J.A.R.V.I.S! lol (Edit: Oh my bad, I somehow missed you said Vision.)
That fkin father scene always gets me🥺🥺🥺
Christopher Cazenove played his father as well as any role I've ever seen anybody play. He emoted that character as if he was living it!

This was a modern take on "The Canterbury Tales". Geoffrey Chaucer was a masterful writer.

Rest well Heath
This movie rules. I used to watch it to go to sleep. Thanks for the reaction
When I first saw this I was surprised to hear modern music knowing that this is a medieval based movie. One of the best Heath Ledger movie along with The Dark Night.
The music is intentional. Its meant to evoke the same emotions in us that medieval music had for its audience.
Stef … thank you for your honesty and your emotions…your thoughts and humanity …makes it enjoyable watch a movie with you .. your doing a great job .. keep it up ..

This was a really good depiction of the jousting circuit. It was a big blood sport circa 1150. The 4th wall breaking dance scene is funny.
I went to a renaissance faire in July, the jousting was so cool to watch. Dudes get hit hard
Such a great movie. Lovely reaction.
Some things are impossible no matter how hard you think you can do it. Some things take time to achieve but are still possible. Acknowledging what is truly impossible and possible is the key.
I dont know if you recognise him but the actor who played roland is Robert baratheon from game of thrones
This is a rare one and very very few reactors have reacted to it but another medieval romantic adventure it's called Ladyhawke, you will not be disappointed it's such a good movie
sorry but the way you articulate your emotions, explaining what you went through watching that movie was so you, you are amazing girl, Keep it up Hun x.
This movie, “10 Things I Hate About You”, and “The Dark Knight (Batman movie) are my faves of Heath Ledger.
The main girl in this movie. I remember during the time this movie came out, there were many actors and actresses like her that for about a 3-5 year period they seemed to be in every movie, then suddenly they seemed to disappear.
Nice one, Stef! Thanks for sharing it. 🙂
Stef remains maybe the best crier in reactions. When she questioned whether she’d cry or not at the beginning I’m sure most of us said either to ourselves or maybe even out loud “yes, you will cry”. I’m sure someone here will have mentioned that the character Geoffrey Chaucer who was played by actor Paul Bettany was actually a real person and probably the most famous British author before Shakespeare came along.
For your next assignment, try THE PRINCESS BRIDE. You will absolutely love it!
I absolutely Love this movie !!! it's in my top 5 . Thank you !! A great review and I enjoyed your reaction to it!!
I remember seeing this at the theater because the movie we went to go see was sold out. Lol. Happiest accident ever 😂❤👍
Another underrated movie of his is “Four feathers”. It’s definitely worth the watch. Also a period piece.
The naked man at the beginning is the actor Paul Bettany the husband of the actress Jennifer Connelly and he is the voice of Tony Starks computer JARVIS in Ironman.
As beautiful as "Jocelyn" is, Christiana always had my heart.
The only fault I ever found with this movie..I always thought Christiana should have been the princess.Always thought she was prettier.
Such a great fun movie. I think it was the way it just loosely used the time and setting but didn't try to go too deep into being a real medieval movie. Think Ren Faire not Re-Enactment. It's completely relaxed, it isn't taking itself especially seriously. The story didn't really depend on the setting at all. It could very easily have a been about a boxer or a racing driver in 1999. It was the cast and the chemistry between that core group of actors that really makes it shine.
The very relatable contemporary dialogue and humour, mixed with the period costumes and sets was a completely fresh thing on screen when this movie came out. The music made it unique in its time. A period movie set in any era before the 20th century with a pop/rock soundtrack was practically unheard of.
One of the GOATs. Just a fantastic feel good film.
SecondHand Lions reaction please! A severely underrated movie and so heartwarming and good!
I got a joke, you’re gonna love this one: The Joker, Robert Baratheon, Vision & Harry the resident alien walk into renaissance festival…
Wow. You only uploaded this a day ago? What a coincidence! I was just thinking about the ballroom scene and wanted to see if anyone new had watched it.
