In this story I saw lots of betrayal. King Arthur planned on fighting his illegitimate son Mordred. Sir Gawain came to him in his dream and told him to not fight him. It would end in his death. When both armies met to resolve peace a snake attacked a knight and he raised his sword to kill it. When he did so, Mordred’s army saw it as a sign to start war. This ended with King Arthur’s death.
In the movie “A Knight’s Tale” many qualities of medieval romance are shown. It shows how badly people wanted to be knights but only people with higher up families could become knights. It also shows that girls in those higher up families can not marry a man in the lower class. The man in this movie becomes a fake knight and meets a princess. He wins a tournament and gets to marry the girl in the end.
