Legend has it that "Tim" the Enchanter was supposed to have a more majestic name, but John Cleese forgot the name on the first take and just said "Tim" instead. They loved it and decided to change the character's name on the spot. The take where he forgets is the one that made the cut - you can actually see him forget the name, "Some call me... Tim?"

Back in the 80s (when I first watched it as a kid), this movie was HUGE in geek circles (along with certain music artists like Weird Al, Talking Heads, etc.). We'd go around quoting the movie all the time. It was like our own secret club. There are lots of trivia about the movie... from who helped fund it (several very famous bands) to "Tim" the Enchanter... the script had a more "fitting" name but the Cleese couldn't remember it and just improvised "Tim" and everyone just went with it. The coconuts were used because they literally couldn't afford horses. The knight that kills the famous historian isn't one of Arthur's because he actually has a horse. And, of course, practically the entire movie is quotable. Even today you'll hear people saying "It's just a flesh wound", "Your father smelled of elderberries", etc.

When I was in college, I had a chance to see Graham Chapman (who played King Arthur) give a talk. He had a question and answer session, and some quoted questions from the movie, which he answered, like "How do you become king?" ("No one else wanted to play the part") and "What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?" ("Sorry, I'm no longer king, so I don't have to know those kinds of things anymore...")

Tossing animals over walls was a common siege tactic. Although they'd usually be launched INTO the castle and be dead/diseased as a way to spread disease throughout the castle and shorten the siege. Barbaric but effective.

Terry Gilliam was the animator. He's directed some incredible movies, with a strangely similar style but live action. It's worth checking out his more well known films "Brazil" "12 Monkeys" and "Fear and loathing in Las Vegas", but his lesser known ones "The Adventures Of Baron Munchausen" and "Time Bandits" are wonderfully surreal and fun too (i'm missing a couple, but the names are eluding me)

When you think about it, the ending is the ultimate cop out. So much of the ridiculousness in the film was budget related. Filming a huge battle scene for the end was too expensive, horses were not in the budget, nearly if not all the castle scenes were shot at one castle, every Python cast member playing multiple roles, etc. etc. Certainly my favorite comedy troupe of all time.

This is an all time classic. Nearly 50 years old and was doing the meta thing long before many other films (there had been a couple films before that played with the fourth wall and awareness of being in a movie) and it's still funny today. And it's often clever in it's humour. It can do the silly nonsense and slapstick but the Pythons were smart too. Also it's regarded as one of the most accurate movies about this period of time as Terry Jones is a scholar of ancient history and made sure that even some of the sillier stuff had some basis in reality no matter how bizarre. :)

@ftumschk
@ftumschk Год назад
Urban myth, I'm afraid. Terry Jones recalls that they came up with the idea of using coconuts at an early script-meeting, simply because it was surreal and silly, and coconut jokes appear throughout the film (e.g. African swallows grabbing coconuts by the husk). Also, Arthur's sidekick, Patsy, getting crushed by the wooden rabbit wouldn't have been as effective if Patsy had been a horse. Likewise, the scene where Concord gets shot by an arrow and tells Lancelot there's a message for him attached would only work if the "horse" (Concord) was actually a man. Besides, few - if any - of the Pythons could ride horses anyway, certainly not to the level of competence required for many of the "horseback" scenes.

One of my favourite Python movies, saw this in theatres. So many quotable lines. And the behind the scenes story is crazy. $400K budget, financed by Rock bands (Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd) because studios refused to fund the film. There was not enough in the budget to use horses, hence the coconuts. The two directors, Gilliam & Jones had never directed before. Plus they ran out of money near the end of the movie. And the weather was miserable the entire time. Crazy story for an awesome entertaining movie. Great reaction Addie. What Is the Airspeed Velocity of an Unladen Swallow? my favourite from the movie.

I think I was among the first folks in the US to see the TV show here in Dallas in 1974 on PBS / KERA channel 13 (not the same channel 13 Billy Joel calls out, that was New York's WNET). I was only 3 and didn't understand some of it at the time, but I'd never seen my dad laugh so hard. Of course, by junior high, my friends and I could quote the entire movie and in college we must've watched it at least once a month! 🤓 I think Luke and Owen Wilson's dad was president of the station at the time and is often credited with bringing the show to the US, but I also think John Cleese came to Dallas a few years ago and specifically thanked the then program director, whose name I forget (please look it up and comment below!) for being the one who brought it to Mr. Wilson's attention. Enjoyed this one a lot!

My favorite historically accurate insult was "You're mother a hamster and your father smelt of elderberrys." Hamsters being very promiscuous and elderberrys were used to make wine... both things being extremely looked down upon at the time.

Prior to this, Monty Python was just a comedy group on English television. This was their first movie (other than a collection of some of their TV bits). The reason for the coconuts was because they couldn't afford horses. In fact they couldn't get financing. They solved that by going to an unusual source. Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Elton John and Jethro Tull invested in the film.

Because of this movie, there are two phrases that always make me smile! First is "Tis but a scratch!". Second is "I blow my nose at you, you tiny-brained wiper of other peoples' bottoms!" Also, in case no one mentioned it, they used coconuts because they couldn't fit real horses in the budget, and the only real horse used is the one ridden by the anonymous knight that killed the historian.

Seriously, the movie is just so off the wall creative and funny, it’s impossible not to at least chuckle. Personally, the Man Eating Rabbit with Its Big Sharp Teeth is legendary and always my favorite part. On second thought, let’s not discuss the movie anymore. Tis a silly thing. RUN AWAY!!! RUN AWAY!!!

best moment in the movie: When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that's what you're going to get, Lad, the strongest castle in all of England.

Such a joy to see you truly enjoy this timeless classic piece of silly nonsense! I hope you will follow up with "Life of Brian" and "The meaning of Life" (which IMHO has the best ever 'pre-credit sequence' of any movie!) For another great comedy in a similar style, I highly recommend "A fish called Wanda" which stars John Cleese and Michael Palin, as well as Jamie Lee Curtis and Kevin Klein. (It also has some VERY quotable dialogue!)
