S16 Ep863: First Knight (1995)

“Richard Gere is too handsome to fight with a helmet on!” - Andrew

On this week’s show, we’re chatting about the super-sexy, Arthurian blockbuster, First Knight!

How incredible and unsettling is Gere’s wig? Why is every character in this movie way too clean? Did Malagant’s broke down palace have an actual bottomless pit? How great is Ben Cross in this movie? And do these Knights of the Roundtable outfits look like something a Klingon would wear? PLUS: Sean Connery’s favorite movie of 2005 was definitely Robert Rodriguez’s Shin Shity!

First Knight stars Sean Connery, Richard Gere, Julia Ormond, Liam Cunningham, Christopher Villiers, Ralph Ineson, John Gielgud, and Ben Cross as Malagant; directed by Jerry Zucker.
