Sword of the Valiant

ActionAdventureFantasyRomance102 min

Miles O'Keeffe's Gawain is still a squire in King Arthur's court when the Green Knight bursts in and proposes a dangerous game for any knight brave enough to accept it. After taking the challenge, Gawain is sent across the land to unravel the knight's riddle, moving through a series of encounters that test his courage, judgment, and sense of honor. Sean Connery is the Green Knight, an imposing figure who hangs over the quest even when he's offscreen, turning the legend into a pageant of castles, wagers, rescues, and sword-and-sorcery trial.
