254. Directorpiece Theatre: Is A Knight's Tale The Best Anachronistic Film?

Abe takes the reigns this time to make the case that this jaunty, joust-y film is the jam. Why do we take old stories and dress them up in modern clothing? What's the point? Adam is also there. Sometimes Abe gets too excited and someone needs to settle him down a bit.
