 My personal favourite of the Python films. Love the bridgekeeper scene.... Sir Lancelot: Ask me the questions, bridgekeeper. I am not afraid.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your name?
Sir Lancelot: My name is Sir Lancelot of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Sir Lancelot: To seek the Holy Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your favourite colour?
Sir Lancelot: Blue.
Bridgekeeper: Go on. Off you go.
Sir Lancelot: Oh, thank you. Thank you very much.
Sir Robin: That's easy.
Bridgekeeper: Stop. Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.
Sir Robin: Ask me the questions, bridgekeeper. I'm not afraid.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your name?
Sir Robin: Sir Robin of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Sir Robin: To seek the Holy Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is the capital of Assyria?
[pause]
Sir Robin: I don't know that.
[he is thrown over the edge into the volcano]
Sir Robin: Auuuuuuuugh.
Bridgekeeper: Stop. What... is your name?
Galahad: Sir Galahad of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Galahad: I seek the Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your favourite colour?
Galahad: Blue. No, yel...
[he is also thrown over the edge]
Galahad: auuuuuuuugh.
Bridgekeeper: Hee hee heh. Stop. What... is your name?
King Arthur: It is 'Arthur', King of the Britons.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
King Arthur: To seek the Holy Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?
King Arthur: What do you mean? An African or European swallow?
Bridgekeeper: Huh? I... I don't know that.
[he is thrown over]
Bridgekeeper: Auuuuuuuugh.
Sir Bedevere: How do know so much about swallows?
King Arthur: Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know. Love the ending too, when they all get arrested by modern-day police! |

I love the Python films. The series themselves are more hit and miss, but the films are classics.

My very first exposure to MPFC was a scene from "Grail": the fight with the Black Knight. I was stunned, and gawking at the TV like  Now that I've seen LoB, I can't really decide which of these I love the most. I think there're more slow scenes in Grail than LoB, but I can't choose one over the other (granted, I can recite LoB from start to finish). I personally really hate the ending of Grail. I think it was a cop-out, like they weren't sure how to end it. Too many scenes and lines from Grail to cite here, but one favorite... "Oh, oh, I'm being repressed!" "Bloody peasant!" "It's only a model..." "SHHHH!" "No, let's not go there. It is a silly place." "She turned me into a newt." "A NEWT?" (pause) "I got better." "And the aptly named Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Film." |
