Knights in Pop Culture

The Link Above is to the preview of the movie savages released last year. Although there is some drug references I do believe it is a good example of courtly love. There is a major twist in the love story when two men are in love with the same woman, and everyone in the situation is accepting of it. The two men, best friends, work together to save their girl who has been kidnapped by a drug cartel. The two men can be seen as Knights in todays pop culture. As for a more kid friendly version of knights, the movie Shrek does a good job putting a twist on a fairy tale and shows good examples of knights as well as love and chivalry.
