    I will forever be grateful to my older brother for introducing me to Monty Python when I was about 8 years old as he'd watch it on our local PBS station. Though I didn't 'get' most of the humour at that age, it did lay the foundation for my love of British humour, lead by the Pythons. Thank you for this!

    Monty Python and the Holy Grail is one of the funniest movies made. " It's just a flesh wound ". Another awesome video. Happy Halloween 🎃

    after Elvis died, they documented everything in his bedroom before it was effectively sealed off to everyone except immediate family, and in the VCR player was a VHS tape, Monty Python & The Holy Grail. The King loved Monty Python!

    One of my favorite movies of all time. In high-school when it came out and laugh till I cry even now. "It's only a flesh wound". Another great job of bringing the best of filming locations.

    Alice Cooper once said that horror and comedy often go hand in hand. I have been a horror lover all my life, and yes, I am a Monty Python fan. I guess this video proves Alice's philosophy correct. All these great videos of horror filming locations, then suddenly, Monty Python from Grimm Life. It just shows that great minds think alike. I love it! Thank you to Michael and Jessica, and keep the videos coming! I'll be here.

  • @hanoiramone
    @hanoiramone ปีที่แล้ว +14

    Nice video. great job lining up the shots. It is pretty crazy how much of the battlements have eroded since the film was shot. You guys would enjoy Glamis Castle if you are in Scotland again. Has a secret room, monster story, is the Macbeth castle and a pet cemetery!

  • @rangerrecon
    @rangerrecon ปีที่แล้ว +8

    For me, there is no greater comedy than Monty Python's Holy Grail. I'm pretty sure that I have every line memorized and seeing Baby Ghoul read John Cleese's French Taunter lines was fantastic! BTW - if Baby Ghoul says Star Wars was filmed there, I wouldn't dispute it - just go with it. I'm sooooo glad you included this in your tour of Europe! Apparently someone did inherit the curtains as I noticed that they're gone...
    Jessica at the end, doing the Frnech Taunter impression instead of the Happy Halloween sign-off was totally epic!!!!

    When we went to Scotland in 2012, we made sure we planned an afternoon there having fun and recreating scenes. I knew we weren't alone when we saw someone prancing across the parking lot with coconuts. Two additional places we found were the alcove where the prisoner was clapping for the song and the West wall where Launcelot take Galahad after saving him from certain peril.

    The Holy Grail is one of my favorite documentaries from the Early Medieval era and rare seeing actual film footage from the period. Fabulous tour detailing all the different camera angles, as amazing as Monty Python's ability to create so many different scenes from one location. Now understand why the cow was catapulted over the wall, difficult walking a cow up those stairs and passageways.
    Watched a British series filmed in Newcastle and would google search locations and learned about those location techniques. Once the characters leave a shop and running around lost, all filmed in the alley behind the cafe at different angles and T intersections framed the views. Many homes and businesses were leased for a day filming while undergoing renovations (google street views were the same period as filming). Another leaving the show's main building, the courtyard opens on a busy commercial street, so they cut to the residential street at the rear of the large property. Amazing how creative camera magic creates different perspectives.
