“A dazzling, dizzying fever dream…It’s always a thrilling thing when a filmmaker creates an entire world that engulfs us from the opening moments, and that’s certainly the case with The Green Knight.” – Chicago Sun-TimesAn epic fantasy adventure based on the timeless Arthurian legend, David Lowery’s majestic, mysterious THE GREEN KNIGHT tells the story of Sir Gawain (Dev Patel), King Arthur’s (Sean Harris) reckless and headstrong nephew, who embarks on a daring quest to confront the eponymous Green Knight (Ralph Ineson), a gigantic emerald-skinned stranger and tester of men. Gawain contends with ghosts, giants, thieves, and schemers in what becomes a deeper journey to define his character and prove his worth in the eyes of his family and kingdom by facing the ultimate challenger. One of the most visually striking films of the last several years, THE GREEN KNIGHT is an A24-ified contemporary twist on an ancient tale — an epic of a different sort, one that prickles the mind and heart, rather than serving up blood and guts.
Also, come out early for a gorgeous and rare animated telling of “Sir Gawain and the Green Knight,” beginning at 6:35 pm.
This film is screening as part of Arkadin’s month-long series KNIGHTY KNIGHT, featuring knights in shining armor and other medieval tales!
