A community portal about Monty Python and the Holy Grail with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Monty Python and the Holy Grail is a comedy film released in 1975. It was written, performed, and directed by Monty Python, an English comedy group, during a gap between the third and the final series of their popular BBC television series Monty Python's Flying Circus. The group's first film, And Now For Something Completely Different, had been a compilation of sketches from the television series; in contrast, Holy Grail was composed of wholly original material. It generally spoofs the legends of King Arthur's quest to find the Holy Grail, and the film was a success on its initial run and retains a large-scale cult following today. It also ranks 49th among IMDb's list of top 250 films of all time. The film was the inspiration for the 2005-Present Tony Award -winning musical Spamalot written by the Python Eric Idle. This film is number 40 on Bravo's "100 Funniest Movies". A collectible card game using the characters and plot of the movie was released by Kenzer & Company in 1996.
