Скачать или смотреть Episode 09: The Green Knight (2021)

It's a new month and that means a new theme here on the Weekly Movie Throwdown. We thought since Dev Patel's directing debut Monkey Man is out next week this would be a good time to look at the actor's filmography to see the steps that got him into the director's chair. What we'll learn is that he's someone who works with very visual filmmakers, something that comes through in Monkey Man. He's also a charismatic young man who handles himself well when he's on-screen alone or at the center of an ensemble.

This week we kick things off with The Green Knight, David Lowery's retelling of the epic tale of Sir Gawain, a young man forced to face his destiny after a life-changing encounter. To help us we welcome Laura Carney, author of My Father's List: How Living My Dad's Dreams Set Me Free. She has an in-depth knowledge of the hero's journey after going on her own adventure to complete her late father's bucket list, and is loaded with knowledge of the teachings of Joseph Campbell. We thought this would make her the perfect guest to discuss The Green Knight.

And if you’d like to log as you go you can find everything we discuss this month on our Letterboxd list page here: https://boxd.it/urtse
