Publisher's Synopsis
A rousing adventure in which a fearless peasant squire sets out to prove himself a worthy knight at joust, and finds romance along the way. From Oscar®-winner Brian Helgeland (co-writer of L. A. Confidential), this is the tale of lowborn William Thatcher (Heath Ledger) and his band of medieval misfits: soft-hearted Roland, hot-headed Wat, Kate the blacksmith, and an itinerant writer/storyteller named Geoffrey Chaucer. They join forces and quest for improbable glory in this exuberant swashbuckler. The book includes the complete shooting script, an introduction by Brian Helgeland, a 24-page colour photo album, and full credits.
