The Green Knight

Gawain takes a game in Arthur’s hall and spends a year walking toward the return blow. Lowery stretches the journey until honor looks like a story he is telling himself on the road. Dev Patel plays the hesitation. The fox, the house, and the sash keep offering him a way to stop. The A24 trailer is the green chapel and the axe. The film keeps asking what he hopes the blow will prove.
