FILM: “Monty Python and the Holy Grail”

FREE AS PART OF FIRST THURSDAYS

A wildly irreverent reimagining of the Arthurian legend, Monty Python and the Holy Grail follows King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table on an increasingly absurd quest for divine purpose. Along the way, history collapses into nonsense, heroism is cheerfully dismantled, and logic is no match for coconuts, killer rabbits, and very silly French taunts.

Directed by Terry Gilliam and Terry Jones. 1975. United Kingdom. English. 1 hour, 31 minutes. Rated PG.
