Knights on Bikes
A romance between a clumsy knight and a damsel in distress.
From the archive
This bizarre short is purported to be Ken Russell's first film. Simply: It begins with a knight in armor [Ken Russell] who eventually rides a bike to rescue a damsel in distress who has been abducted by a man in a wheelchair. Some argue that the film abruptly ends, leading one to suspect that the film was never completed. Ken Russell [Wikipedia] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Russell
