Actually it’s a pentangle. The “Gawain” poet described it at length in the poem. It was emblazoned on Gawain’s shield and coat of arms. The pentangle symbolizes the Five Precious Wounds of Our Lord (two on His Sacred Hands, two on His Sacred Feet, and the one on His Sacred Side pierced by the Holy Lance of Longinus [later St. Longinus]). Also, it is a symbol of the Five Joys of Our Lady (The Annunciation, The Nativity, The Resurrection, The Ascension, and The Assumption). Gawain was devoted to Our Blessed Mother, so much so, that he had an of her on the inside portion of his shield. Hence, he was called “the Knight of the Blessed Virgin”. I wonder if the director will emphasize Gawain’s love for Our Lady in this film.

My understanding is that the woman in white, played by Erin Kellyman, is going to be a character named "Winfred". I'm thinking this is possibly a reference to St. Winifred, whose tale also involves a decapitation, and whose well is mentioned in "Gawain and the Green Knight". I can't find too much specific information about the role Erin is playing, here, but it seems to point in that direction.

I'm really looking forward to this and I think you're right that it's going to have a lot of Christianity replacing the Pagan religion feel to it. The basis for The Decapitation Game used in Arthurian Legend goes way back to the old pre-christian Welsh and Irish stories so I wonder if it's going to have a feeling of what's left of The Pagans testing The Christians of their so-called honour. Either way, i'm 100% there for it. The opening scene you referred to as looking 'wiccan' is a little more accurately Druidic imagery and the figures look like they might be reading Ogham staves or some reference to ogham divination .

I really hope (probably in vain) that they don't make this really sexual. The whole theme of sexuality in the story is preserving honour and resisting temptation. Nonetheless, for some dumb reason, movies these days needlessly inject sex wherever they can to the point of it just being sick -- perhaps he will die in this movie for giving in to lust though🤔

I know exactly what you mean Joseph - my ultimate pet peeve is where they make any historical non-fiction and the basic premise is 'Da Vinci but he f*cks' or 'Van Gogh but he f*cks'. I feel like Game of Thrones was the tipping point for it. So with that said I hope sexuality is explored, but yeah, in the context of everything you've mentioned like refusal of lust, maintaining honour and so forth. That being said, and this being A24, I can see it going further than the original story but I feel like this will lean more towards the psychological struggle and torments of Gawain's decisions than just needless sex scenes.

It appears that The Green Knight film is taking quite a lot of liberties with the source material - I don't remember a talking fox companion, nor the scavenger, nor the interaction with the giants. I've only read the Simon Armitage translation of Sir Gawain and The Green Knight, so I could be wrong. I'm not against any of these things at all, if they help to flesh out the story. I'm also keen to see how they handle the transaction of kisses.

You’re quite right. There is a fox, but not a talking one. The giants and scavengers aren’t either but the adventures are implied in his journey to the chapel and they’re in canon, so to speak. At least they’re conducive with the contemporary mythology. I think we’re definitely going to get something that’s unmistakeable as Gawain’s story but at the same time crammed full of A24’s signature weirdness.

I am hoping that the giants are the Tuatha De Danann from Irish mythology!! And I am thinking maybe the Queen of Hearts looking character may be Morgana Le Fay as an alternate personality or identity as Morgana in some lore seems to play as a bit of a trickster or shape shifter? If this is the case it's kinda cool in the sense of The Corpse Bride how the land of the dead is colorful and the land of the living is drab and dull. Would be cool if the land of paganism is colorful and beautiful and the land of Christianity is drab and dull. So excited to go see this! I hope the box office sparks a budget where this production company decides to make more tales of the Knights of Round. Would super love to see Percival and his ventures!

That dualism between Christian/pagan land definitely seems to be present - and it’s an interesting comparison you’ve drawn because their seems to be this subtext of is Gawain dead or in some purgatorial space.
