I re-read the poem (in the Tolkien translation) in hopes of better following the story line. This was a grave mistake. There are some points of convergence, but they are few and far between, and contribute nothing towards making this hodgepodge of incidents and images in any way an intelligible and meaningful film. I should have begun my journey home long before Gawain began his.
