Less critic, more former academic here, but it is hard to adapt a preexisting work for the screen, harder when it's a 14th c. Middle English epic poem. Lowery's script is incredibly true to the source material while smartly excising/adding as needed. Super impressed by his work.

That said, if you are going in expecting a typical Arthurian legend movie with swords and battle,
#TheGreenKnight isn't that (and neither is the original poem). This is a true slow-burn tale of man vs. nature vs. himself.Show this thread

This is good to hear! I've been middling on Lowery's work, but the trailer looked incredible. He seemed to really interrogate the story.

Well if you read Mallory's Morte d'Arthur, it's never stated that any of the knights were not of Indian origin. This is also true of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. Anyhow, they were legendary characters who were mostly made up, so as long as the acting is good, who cares?
