    Storyline

    Edit

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The Pope/Michelangelo sketch was based on a historical incident. The Renaissance artist Paolo Veronese really did paint a "Last Supper" with extraneous contemporary elements. The Inquisition investigated and advised him to remove those elements. Instead, he really did just rename it - to "Feast in the House of Levi".
    • Goofs
      During the Bishop on the Landing Skit, a number of the actors could barely keep a straight face, and also when the church police came onstage and everyone jumped over, Terry Jones's wig flew completely off his head, forcing the other actors to slowly close ranks to allow him to replace his wig without anyone seeing.
    • Quotes

      First Bruce: We find your American beer like making love in a canoe. It's fucking close to water.

    • Crazy credits
      At the very end of the film, the giant video screen changes from showing "The End" to "PISS OFF" which flashes repeatedly on the screen.
    • Alternate versions
      Some older VHS versions of the show omit the "Little Red Riding Hood" segment.
    • Connections
      Edited from Monty Python's Flying Circus (1969)
    • Soundtracks
      The Liberty Bell

    How funny, how ingenious, how.... Python

    This is probably the movie which made me watch "life of brian" and "the holy grail". It is brilliant, I first heard of MP after I saw what I consider to be one of the best comedies ever filmed, "a fish called wanda", and I have seen every MP flick since then. In this masterpiece they have picked only the best scenes from their best movies: Silly walk, ..say no more..,silly Olympics, Michealangelo and many more. Even if you only have the slightest sense of humor you still must see this one it might change they way you judge comedies in the future.

    41/2 out of 4 possible
