Review
People complained incessantly about the "historical inaccuracy" of A Knight's Tale too. No they absolutely didn't play Queen at jousting matches in those days or dance to David Bowie and the young princess probably wouldn't have worn seethrough dresses and postmodern hats. Heath Ledger's character wouldn't have been able to pose as a knight. You guys it's a FANTASY! It's historical FICTION. It's not a documentary!! I loved A Knight's Tale and I love this show so far. It moves a little slowly but it's GORGEOUS and I love the modern take on the 1550's. I love the hair and the makeup and the music! I think all of the elements blend together well and I'm totally hooked. I'll be really interested to see where they take it and I love the characters. I love the mix of old and new and the mix of fact and fiction. All in all I think it's stellar! Again it's NOT A DOCUMENTARY people. It's a TV show. And a very pretty one.
