Galahad JonesGalahad Jones
Synopsis:
Having glimpsed life at King arthur's court through books, Tommy Jones concludes that the days of knighthood were superior to the present era of speed, greed, and mechanical gadgets. Tommy sets out to try to put into practice some of the ideas and customs of the arthurian court. His family soon loses patience with him, so Tommy decides to practice on Lena, the maid. He dresses her in court dress and crowns her queen of the tournament-only to have his family walk in, to his great embarrassment. However, from Lena he learns of a "damsel in distress," another maid whose husband is cruel to her. Tommy, now dubbed "Galahad" Jones, writes out a formal challenge and carries it in person to the "low churl's" house. the man challenged, a burly truck-driver, all but chokes the life out of Tommy. Threatening messages poor in. Lena's life is threatened as well as that of the young state's attorney, engaged to Tommy's sister. Unwittingly, Tommy has uncovered the meeting-place of a gang of hijackers. This fact he reveals to the prosecutor under oath of secrecy. the gang is surrounded and captured, and Tommy is rewarded.
