Starring Heath Ledger, Rufus Sewell and Paul Bettany
Directed by Brian Helgeland
For young squire William (Ledger), the son of a poor thatcher, it seems incomprehensible that he could ever realize his childhood dream of knighthood. But one day, at a medieval jousting tournament, fate deals William a shot at the ring. Before long he has reinvented himself as noble Ulrich von Lichtenstein of Gelderland and sets out to prove himself a worthy knight at the country's jousting competition, and finds romance along the way.
