Autumn 1977. Derek Springfield is an 18-year-old misfit, who 5 years earlier was plucked from his home in the industrial outskirts of Leeds to attend Public School on a scholarship. He has just returned home at the end of his studies to await his Oxbridge results that he's hoping will result in his permanent escape. Life at home is awkward for the brainy lad and embarrassing for his working class family who can't relate: his feckless dad, no-nonsense mum and two older brothers, one a football hopeful and the other a distinctly dodgy acquirer of flash consumer goods.
Derek kills time by walking a no hope greyhound, Slapper, and loving out-of-his league Chrissie from afar. But under Derek's loving care Slapper gets faster - so fast she's stolen for her racing potential. Derek despairs at being completely alone once more but Chrissie gets the local community to keep watch. Slapper eventually escapes from her furious captors at an illegal flapper track. Exhausted, she somehow finds her way back and is reunited with Derek who tries to nurse her back to health his bedroom without his family finding out.
Derek, Chrissie and Slapper disguise themselves to avoid the dognappers and try their luck at racing her at a proper dog track. The dognappers and all the Springfields converge on the stadium for the exciting climax.
Its also the day Derek's results are due...
散场前排小朋友对爸爸说 我太困惑了 以后再也不听你的推荐了 我给了他一个迷之微笑 :)
3星，本片改编自 圆桌骑士里比较有名的一段故事《高文与绿骑士》，场景布局讲究尽显骑士浪漫情怀。故事改编后有点故弄玄虚强行加戏的感觉，把寓言故事拍成了一个文艺片。但寓言故事表达的精神没变，整体观感尚可，可以看看。
太美，拖沓得都这么美。最后竟然是《基督最后的诱惑》那样的寓言。die a knight or live a coward. 中世纪电影就应该拍成这样吧。
空洞的花活纯属自废武功，高不成低不就之典范。
一个无名小卒的骑士养成之旅，电影节奏属实太慢，看的中途我睡着好几次，如果不是看到了最后，我还真以为他只是一个玩不起游戏的胆小鬼，当上国王后抛弃自己的女人的败类，没想到结尾却来了一个大反转，直接颠覆了我对他的看法，他是一个从幼稚不断走向成熟的士兵，他配得上“骑士”的称号。
好美好美，阴郁又古典，没想到如此传统（老旧？）故事的影像化会这么美。
D+ / 是我不太喜欢的一类电影，看起来是美的，视听是好的，但这种美又是数字技术所堆积出来的失去灵魂的东西，精致清晰却空洞。A24作为厂牌而成为影像风格标识的结果可能未必会比所谓“漫威”要好多少，作者意识的收敛又是否是受制于此呢。
特别拧巴的一部电影。Lowery为了让当代观众理解角色，把Sir Gawain the virtuous的journey of chivalry改编成coming of age故事。改编很难说成功。一面极力撇清传统saga和coming of age叙事不惜穿插荒诞讽刺，一面不得不忠于原著情节用神秘主义风格把saga情节糊弄过去。最终coming of age变成了一条直到最后一幕通过颅内simulation才能完成的陡峭曲线，路上的道德挑战在乳臭未干的小骑士身上也失去了在原著里与virtuous knight的张力。slow pan再好看也救不回来。
这种古欧故事对于不了解欧洲历史的我非常不友好...我觉得最后高文逃过一劫了，因为选择了诚实和守信
很美丽的童话，爆笑了好几次，跟想象的大红狗真的不太一样
中规中矩的儿童读物改编剧，属于不踩雷但没亮点的作品
视听还不错，故事神神叨叨的啥玩意|补完长评区大神的文章+1星，原来是个传统的骑士故事，背叛了所有“五德”，只要结尾愿意赴死就可以成为骑士，故事很古典。#sfm
都是名角，相比于晦涩的故事，这部电影的视听倒是实打实的好～
儿童，宠物，童话，降智的永远在抢夺路上的反派，嗯套路雷同也就算了，但是演的真的有点差啊，演技呢演技。。。
7.0 西方聊斋，魔幻气氛有了，但是人物刻画一个都不深刻，行为缺少原因和逻辑，剧情推得太快了
黄粱一梦，放在中国，就是得道升天，或是遁入空门的路径。
是拍得挺美的。但是作为两段式电影，有点无聊
装腔作势，整色整水，A24的片都是一样的。
What does the fox say的巨制MV
抛弃掉许多不合理的情景，这部电影是非常适合带小朋友观看的，单纯的新奇感，单纯的可爱。
