I hope you enjoy this reaction! We tried the best that we could to include as much movie context as possible, but because the scenes were so long and there was so much music & iconic dialogue, this kept getting copyright claimed! Pray that this video doesnt get get hit with a delayed claim, but it should be okay! Otherwise, i loved this movie and i see why so many people loved its goofiness! HELP HELP I'M BEING REPRESSED!

I'm surprised you got so much of it posted. They did release "The Album of the Soundtrack of the Trailer of the Film of Monty Python and The Holy Grail". It's worth a listen because in addition to sounds from the movie there is a LOT of extra material. They made several comedy albums in addition to their TV series "Monty Python's Flying Circus". There are more films too.

@OriginalWatchcow 3 месяца назад

Monty Python is not a person it's a sketch comedy group. They have a few other movies that are assembled as sketches of loosely related topics that eventually circle back to a central theme. There was a variety show of sorts that showed up on television that was also just sketches, but mostly unrelated. This was "Monty Python's Flying Circus" and was a weekly program on BBC for years. Most Americans got to see it as reruns on late night TV and some states aired it on there education stations. "Random" is a good call. Their skits often called out political and social issues of the day, so we could probably call much of their work satire as much as comedy. It does point out some interesting linguistic differences between Brits and Americans. The French taunters were a reminder of the longstanding hatred between the cultures that share way more than they care to admit. Brits may own sarcasm, but out of that same language, Americans became the absolute owners of insult.

The famous historian was based on a real person. Back in the early 1980s, I had a world history class where the prof introduced the section on England by showing a film. He warned us we'd be watching a noted historian with the driest delivery we'd ever seen. He warned us not to fall asleep. I hadn't seen Holy Grail in years at that point, but that historian in the history class film looked familiar. A few weeks later I saw the Holy Grail again, and now those scenes with famous historian were hysterically funny with context. The guys who were in the history class with me and watched Holy Grail with me cheered when the famous historian was killed. I wish I could remember the name of the real life famous historian.

This movie almost ended my family. It was Christmas Eve, and we were just leaving our traditional dinner at our favorite Chinese restaurant to drive around looking at Christmas lights. My Lady Wife turned on the radio, and it was the live broadcast of the midnight mass at Canterbury Cathedral. The lector started to read the Christmas Story from the Gospel of Luke. In the same intonation they used in Holy Grail to read from Armaments 2:9-21. To an Anglican in Great Britain, that is the normal "Anglicana Voice" lectors use. So for Brits, they were playing that scene straight. For us, we all immediately broke into uncontrollable laughter. I had to quickly find a safe place to pull off the road.

The jokes that are often missed in this movie are stuff that people who have been studying Arthurian legends would've learned, like in "The Tale of Sir Galahad" section it showed at the beginning that he was the one who (almost) found the Grail, referencing Galahad and Percival (who were two of the youngest knights of the Round Table) being sent on a quest to obtain the Holy Grail. In some versions it was Galahad who got it on account of his purity/chastity, in others it was Percival. Another joke in this particular section is it was Lancelot who rescued Galahad after he almost fell to certain temptation and warning Galahad - his son, at least according to Arthurian legends - of the perils of promiscuous women, while the fact is that Lancelot was among the most unchaste and promiscuous of the Knights of the Round Table (most of his tales revolves around princesses and damsels).

Idk if anyone said this yet, but when The Knights of the Round Table were being taunted by the French knight, and he said "Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries." What he is saying is that his mother "slept around" and his father was a drunk. Hamsters breed a lot, and elderberry wine was popular at the time this film is set in.

So many things I love about this movie: the recurring swallow joke especially when Bedevere is trying to tie the coconut to the swallow, Arthur continually confusing 5 for 3, Bedevere having difficulty correctly pronouncing "Ni", the fourth wall breaks throughout, the fact that whoever killed the historian couldn't have possibly been any of Arthur's grail-seekers because he rode by on a real live horse, etc. Favorite bit: the guards who can't quite get a handle on their instructions, which comes back as Lancelot storms in Favorite MP movie: Some might say it's a pass but I love And Now For Something Completely Different specifically because it's so disjointed and nonsensical Hope the next one you check out is The Meaning of Life

The little Intermission is a nod to old epic movies like this is parodying, ones with runtimes over three hours that had a break planned in the middle of the movie, making it feel more like a night at the opera than just a movie screening. Ben-Hur, for example, has an intermission mark a little over two hours into its nearly four-hour runtime

For those of us in the UK, of a certain generation - we grew up with Monty Python on TV, and also The Goodies on kids' TV which was from the same extended milieu of 1960s performers, and weird ass movies like this and Life of Brian and Time Bandits... we didn't need drugs. The only thing that amazes me is, for something so British, how well it travels abroad.

GREAT reaction Miranda!! When it comes to Python expectations, throw it ALL out the window - the only expectation one must have is it will be chaotic, random, nonsensical, and above all, absurd - and it's that absurdity that is Monty Python!! They are known (through their sketch comedy series) for the animations (all done by Terry Gilliam) that segue one segment to the next. It's kind of their trademark! This is such a rewatchable movie - in part because it's absolutely hilarious, but also because it's so fast, you notice things on repeat watchings that you didn't see/hear before! I'm glad my kids share my, and my wife's sense of humour - they LOVE this movie too! So much so that there are many quotable moments in our household from it! My favourite will always be when Arthur meets the peasants in the field "Look, strange women lying in ponds, distributing swords is no basis for a system of government..." Cheers!

@xanderfoxjsc 3 месяца назад

I love seeing people react to this film as it is Peak Monty Python! It condenses what this band of British knuckle heads brought to comedy, chaos and thought in equal measure. Subversive satirical comedy owes it's existence to the Pythons. And yes this did become a Broadway show, Spamalot which combines the movie with music and classic Python bits.

@ostlandr Месяц назад

Saw the road company of Spamalot. The actor playing Arthur was actually playing Tim Curry (the original Broadway actor) playing Arthur. And he absolutely nailed it! That performance deserved a Tony Award.

You ask if anyone saw it the first time around. Yes, me. It was the mid-1970s and I was 8! It was a big birthday party in London and we all had a blast. Interesting you wonder about the theatrical style of performing. British actors back then were a lot more “shouty” than they are today: we didn’t have much of a film industry and only three channels on the telly. Actors and comedians mainly thought in terms of performing live in front of hundreds of people in huge theatres, and couldn’t help bringing that to their screen performances.

You'd win that bet. There is a stage musical of Holy Grail called Spamalot. And it has Tim Curry. funny story, true story about Tim. John Cleese was supposed to give a long, complicated, mystical sounding name. But on the day, he completely forgot his lines and just went "Uh.... Tim???" They liked it so much that they just kept it in the film.
