"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 RU-vid described). Sacrificing historical accuracy for emotional accuracy to entertain us as the viewer more so than the period-accurate music would. But their music at the time would’ve been as big as “we will rock you” was for our generations so there is arguably a level of emotional accuracy. It’s a very unique film!

Now Ulrich Von Liechtenstein was in fact a real historical figure. Famous for being a successful jouster and poet, especially his autobiography ‘Frauenburch’, meaning “The Service of Ladies”. That is something I’d like to read one day as it is a likely exaggerated but wicked tale of his career and obsessive love life with a married noblewoman. There are some ridiculous things recorded in there haha. Link below tells of them.
