I appreciate all the love for A Knight’s Tale. Here’s a breakdown for all my writers that are structure nerds like me.
What timeless under-appreciated classic from Zack’s Favorite Films should I discuss next week?
CC @Criterion this film is overdue for a reissue on Blu Ray. Do your magic!

(Also hi I’m a writer/director with multiple samples—including a produced comedy pilot, a MFA from Columbia, prior experience in late night @ NBC, and an Emmy for a musical short👇🏻. I’m available for staffing! Would love to work w/ you.)
