The first feature film by the Monty Python team is a mock heroic
tale set in medieval Britain with lots of silly things going on
besides. In a series of sketches and animations, the Pythons
recount scenes from the Grail legend in which the knights forsake
their chorus line can-can dancing in Camelot for a higher aim.
Typically, the Pythons set-up a 'historical' tale which is really a
take on the modern world. Memorable scenes, like Graham Chapman's
King Arthur battling with John Cleese's Black Knight until the
latter is reduced limb by limb down to a speaking stump of a torso,
capture both the hilarity and grotesque nature of brutality. In
scene after scene King Arthur's men are led a merry chase through
the countryside, encountering life on many different social levels.
This screenplay edition contains just the script and is
supplemented by stills from the film.
