William Thatcher | Change The Stars (A Knight’s Tale)

“A man can change his stars. And I won’t spend the rest of my life as nothing.“ One of my favourite films and childhood memory. I think the majority would see Heath Ledger simply as the Joker and they’d be right too! However, before I even watched The Dark Knight (amazing), I knew him before as Ulrich or William Thatcher and still love the film to this day. Everything he acted in was incredible every single time. I hope this pays tribute to one of the many great characters he portrayed. This film is incredibly anachronistic but I and many perhaps love it for that. I think Braveheart is likely worse for historical accuracy. But this is a funny, good feeling type of movie that probably shouldn’t have worked but somehow does. Perhaps due to the amazing cast and friendships, I read that it was an absolute laugh making this film as we can see onscreen. I can actually see where Brian Helgeland was coming from in the use of modern music (as many videos on YouTube described). Sacrific
