Speaking on the old legend: It's a story about a hero proving himself through his character and interactions with others rather than his physical prowess or skill in battle, I had to write a paper on it many years ago but I remember the story beats pretty well. There are no grand battles or duels, it's a series of tests which Gawain does not know are tests as he takes his journey to meet the Green Knight as challenged. I haven't seen the movie yet but from what I've heard it's something of an art film in its visual approach with a comparison made to the works of Guillermo del Toro. Definitely the kind of movie where if you don't know what you're walking into then the title and poster may be pretty misleading.
