Being an Arthurphile, I must say I really liked this. If I recall correctly, in the original, Gawain and Arthur were accosted by a giant while riding, who, being unarmed, challenged them to a battle of wits. Arthur has to run the kingdom, so he sends Gawain to find the answer. Gawain searches far and wide, and finally goes to the forest of ingelwood, rumored to contain a magic well with an all-knowing femine guardian. He meets the ugly hag, and the rest is substantially the same.

The moral, I think, is a recent addition...

and a funny one!

Thanks!
