The Green Knight
In a cinema landscape that’s usually not kind to fantasy films, David Lowry took a risk at telling an old-school, sincere fantasy film about a character who has no business being on a fantasy quest. That risk paid off, as The Green Knight is the most epic film of the year. Few films captured so much power and scope using a character as grounded as Sir Gawain, played to perfection by Dev Patel. His likability, charm, and desperation make this ancient story fun, while the stellar production design gives the film the grandeur it deserves. Movies like this are simply not made anymore, and I hope we get more films like The Green Knight soon.
