Fun fact: When they were filming this, all castles in the region they were filming in were "owned" by the government - except one. They applied to the government for permission to film at one or more castles, but we're denied. The owner of the privately owned castle gave them permission, so every castle you see (other than the model) is that one castle filmed each time from a different perspective.

[@inbedwithmovies3228]

[@martinhafner2201]

The odd thing about their humor is that they don't usually make crazy logical jumps during the sketch. Most of the flaws are built into the premises at the beginning of the sketch and then the characters proceed fairly reasonably. But the initial flaws are not corrected, so they grow. Thus the flaws grow in logical progression into huge crevices that dominate the story. You can generally predict the next small event or line but it is harder to guess where it is going in the end. It's that "Oh my god, they went there" realization followed by "Well, I guess that had to go there".

[@subitman12]

The production couldn't afford horses so they used two coconuts so it could be a joke.

[@inbedwithmovies3228]

I loved it

[@frugalseverin2282]

It's British absurdist humor. Apart from being a film about King Arthur and the search for the Grail it's also a commentary on film-making itself. Making movies is expensive so they opted not to pay for real horses and they made a joke out of that. Sir Lancelot running over and over shows what happens when the director doesn't get the coverage shots needed to show his progress. Also the animated bits of God and the weather and the Legendary Black Beast of Arrgh! They didn't have money for a huge battle scene so then ended on a joke, a literal 'cop out'. The presence of the historian was an anachronism, he didn't belong in the film. Anything goes in a Python movie. The 6 members of the troupe all played multiple roles which is why they look so familiar. Each was a college graduate so they're very intelligent, that's why we got the reference to the Trojan horse, the plague and the spoof of the Bible in the reading of the Book of Armaments.

[@mciddangelo9790]

Honey, it's a genius film. I must've seen this a thousand times. I like how you rode the waves with us.

This is why we can often find them on the scenes with the Holy Family or Christ, like here on Dürer’s etching. But in the drolleries, they have shown their true nature - cruel, sadistic, and violent animals. They killed people and other animals, often in a very sophisticated way."

[@southron_d1349]

The weird flagellants are chanting words from "Dies irae" (Day of Wrath); Pie Iesu Domine, Dona eis requiem. Translation; Lord, all-pitying, Jesus blest, Grant them Thine eternal rest. The song and dance routine is a callback to the 1967 musical "Camelot" with Richard Harris and Vanessa Redgrave. The film was based on the earlier stage musical. I've seen a few reactions to this film and it's always surprising how Malory's "Le Morte d'Arthur" as well as all the other legends seem to have vanished or at least become diminished. The Arthurian mythos draws on Christianity as well - the temptations of saints, the grail used by Jesus at the Last Supper, certain virtues, and so on. At the start of the first volume of his war memoirs, Spike Milligan quotes Thucydides' "History of the Peloponnesian War" and adds a bit; "I have described nothing but what I saw myself, or learned from others of whom I made the most careful and particular enquiry. Thucydides. Peloponnesian War. I’ve just jazzed mine up a little. Milligan. World War II." The Monty Python team certainly jazzed up the legends of King Arthur. Assur was the capital of Assyria. Both pronunciations of "sloth" are correct. One of the early iterations of the scripts had Arthur and his Knights finding the Holy Grail in Harrod's. Apparently you can find everything in Harrod's.

Great reaction and I hope you continue on with their other films. Life of Brian and Meaning of Life, both of absolute classic and amazing original songs in them, all written and performed by these silly English bastards. I also highly encourage you to watch some of their most infamous and hilarious skits from their series Flying Circus, like Dead Parrot, Spanish Inquisition, Lumberjack, Ministry of Silly Walks, Self defense against fresh fruit and Cheese Shop!!! The trick is to watch the originals and not the reshoots they did years later for their last film, And Now For Something Completely Different. They're still good, but the originals just have that extra indescribable something extra that's missing from the ones shot for the movie. I would also like to suggest a couple of can't miss BBC classic comedies you should check out and might want to react to, like Fawlty Towers with John Cleese of the Python boys, Black Adder with Rowan Atkinson aka Mr Bean, though I suggest you skip the first season and start with the second. Black Adder changes time periods each season following the descendants of the characters from the show, so you're not missing out on any plot etc. it's the only show where I suggest people skip a season. Father Ted is another amazing comedy series that you should look into.

9:28 There is a very old picture book they use to have children learn Latin. It is called Orbis Pictus. There are a few version on line in pdf form. It has English/Latin interline form and many basic subject matters are covered such as weather geography, occupations, parts of the body, ages, ect. There is an older wood cut print, whose pictures are harder to make out (a big problem to make out which numbers in the pictures correspond with which Latin or late middle English words) and there is another more recent version with clearer pictures but have the odd form of s that looks like an f and you have to train your eyes and brain to work with it.

Silly and surreal yet it has a strange depth to it. For those of us who grew up watching their TV show back in the early 70s, these guys are like family. At first you aren't certain and yet you return again and again. My dad was the same. He walked in as I was trying to watch one of their episodes through the static and best reception my antenna could muster. Afterwards, he walked out dismissing it as dumb.....but for some reason he came back in to watch it with me every weekend. Strange, that. Like I said, the Python troupe are near and dear.

Monty Python were the 4Chan trolls of their time. This movie has a "cop-out" ending. 😉 This is (old school) British humor. It's very dry and takes some getting used to. Monty Python's Flying Circus (1969) was a sketch comedy show, so of course their first movie is a bunch of scenes tied together by a loose plot. I think you'll like Life Of Brian (1979) and The Meaning Of Life (1983) much better. If you love this movie, then Yellowbeard (1983) should be on your list (since everyone else will be recommending other Monty Python movies). Not technically a Monty Python film, but it was a Graham Chapman's (King Arthur) passion project and the humor is similar. Fun Fact: The famous depiction of galloping horses by using coconut shells (a traditional radio-show sound effect) came about from the purely practical reason that the production simply could not afford real horses.

[@inbedwithmovies3228]

Oh yes, they trolled the audience for sure. I'll look into those you recommended. Clever, I loved the effect - I want some of my own coconuts now.

Might even react to Monty Python's Movie : Life of Brian 1979

[@inbedwithmovies3228]

I’ll think about it

[@steved1135]

Nice. Welcome to the brilliance that is Monty Python. People either find them hilarious, or not. As an Australian, I'm guessing you're going to find them funny. Like many, i can pretty much quote the entire script... lol

[@inbedwithmovies3228]

Thanks Steve, yes the English blood in my veins must help. Really? So you've seen it more than once then? lol

[@tonyb6354]

The Holy Grail is brilliant. Have a look at Monty python's, The life of Brian. It's even funnier.👍

You said you’d like to watch more of their work. I’d recommend mosquito hunting and they have what sounds like Australian accents. Also, You’re no fun anymore/man turned into a Scotsman Spanish Inquisition, lumberjack are essentials and How not to be seen

"a whole bunch of guys mooning the screen" Lol You were probably thinking of "The Full Monty". Nothing at all to do with Monty Python :)

[@jimkirk4357]

If you like this you absolutely must watch "The Life of Brian".

[@inbedwithmovies3228]

It's on the list.

[@totomomo18]

You Australian I thought you were from the UK :) .They didn't have allot of budget for this movie that is why they use coconuts instead of horses. If you want more another great Monty Python I suggest Monty Python Life of Brian.other great comedies/Parodies are Kung Pow or Top Secret! 1984 and The naked gun trilogy

[@inbedwithmovies3228]

Yes everyone gets tricked by the accent because I don’t have the typical Aussie accent that you hear in movies. Thanks for the suggestions, I have some of them on my list already ☺️

@68K oh gosh… I actually had a clip in one of my reactions (can’t remember which one now) where I said the line and a story about how I was once talking to friends over walkie talkies and some randoms jumped on the line and responded with “that’s not a knife” ☠️

I have found that Australians "get" the humour more readily than Americans. I was exposed to British humour at a young age via our local PBS (Public Broadcasting System) channels, and Monty Python's Flying Circus was a staple for me on Saturday nights. Most Americans just don't get the "dry" humour that exemplifies British television of the era (the 1970s), but having been exposed to it at an early age, I found it hilarious, while my peers were wondering what was wrong with me. It's even funnier watching younger Americans being exposed to this stuff with absolutely no context whatsoever. One reaction channel didn't even know that Monty Python was a comedy troupe, rather than a single person. That video cracks me up to the point I watch it every few months since she posted it. Her reaction is just that hilarious! Especially the ending where Arthur and company get arrested. It literally makes their mind explode.

[@AngryVikingBiker]

I absolutely love Monty Python & The Holy Grail it's my favourite Monty Python Movie out of all of them, I never get tired of seeing this movie... I love the Sir Robin Song Bravely bold Sir Robin Rode forth from Camelot. He was not afraid to die, Oh brave Sir Robin. He was not at all afraid To be killed in nasty ways. Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin. He was not in the least bit scared To be mashed into a pulp. Or to have his eyes gouged out, And his elbows broken. To have his kneecaps split And his body burned away, And his limbs all hacked and mangled Brave Sir Robin. His head smashed in And his heart cut out And his liver removed And his bowls unplugged And his nostrils raped And his bottom burnt off And his penis.... "That's err,... that's enough music for now lads,... looks like there's dirty work afoot." and then the entrance to the cave scene the the Death Bunny just absolutely kills me LMFAO 😂🤣🤣😂 TIM : TO LATE!... There He Is! KING ARTHUR : Where? TIM : THEEERREEE! KING ARTHUR : What?... Behind the Rabbit?... TIM : IT IZZ THE RABBIT!... KING ARTHUR : YOOOOUUUUU SILLY SOD!!! TIM : What? KING ARTHUR : YOU GOT US ALL WORKED UP!!! TIM : WELL THATS NO ORDINARY RABBIT!... THATS THE MOST FOUL CRUEL AND BAD TEMPERED RODENT YOU'VE EVER SET EYES ON! SIR ROBIN : YOOOOOUUUU TIT!... I SOILED MY ARMOUR I WAS SO SCARED! TIM : LOOK THAT RABBIT HAS GOT A VISCIOUS STREAK A MILE WIDE!... IT'S A KILLER! SIR GALAHAD : GET STUFFED! TIM : IT'LL DO YOU OUT A TREAT MATE! SIR GALAHAD : OH YEAH??? SIR ROBIN : YOU MANKY SCOTCH GIT! TIM : I'M WARNING YOU!... SIR ROBIN : WHATS HE DO?... NIBBLE YA BUM?!!! TIM : HE'S GOT HUGE SHARP... ERP... HE CAN LEAP ABOUT... LOOK AT THE BONES!!! KING ARTHUR : GO ON BORS CHOP IT'S HEAD OFF! BORS : RIGHT!... SILLY LITTLE BLEEDER!... ONE RABBIT STEW COMING RIGHT UP! TIM : LOOOOOOKK!... BORS : EEYYYAAAAAAGGGGHHHH!...

KING ARTHUR : RIGHT!... CHAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGEEEE!!! LMFAO I absolutely love that scene and the dialog 😂🤣🤣😂

[@SebastianWeinberg]

9:22 - *“Why're they whacking their heads.”* They're flagellants. Those were religious orders who believed that pain and suffering brought you closer to Jesus, and hence God. They would whip themselves, burn themselves, etc. Before you think that this is just ridiculous medieval silliness, belief systems like this persist to this very day. For example this sort of idolisation of pain and suffering is why Mother Theresa's "hospitals" did not allow any form of pain medication or palliative treatment - the purpose was not primarily to _heal_ people, but to allow them to _suffer_ in peace, so they could become more holy. 33:52 - *“What the hell did I just watch?”* Yes, that is the typical reaction to this movie. Other symptoms may include bafflement, denial, excessive giggling, and quoting lines from this movie repeatedly for the rest of your life.
