The Green Knight

Essel (Alicia Vikander) wears bells on her shroud because during the Middle Ages, it was common for people who were considered unclean, such as prostitutes, to be forced to wear bells on their clothing to warn others of their presence. She has her hair cropped for the same reason; in medieval London and many other places, prostitutes had their hair cut short as a public humiliation and punishment.

The woods that Sir Gawain goes through are clearly modern plantations of Sitka spruce (a tree that did not reach Britain until the 19th century), all planted at equal distances apart and all grown to the same size; they look nothing like the old-growth deciduous forests that would have been in medieval Britain.

There is a short scene at the very end of the credits.
