Monty Python The Movies 4-Disc DVD Box Set
Four gloriously unpredictable Monty Python films packed with surreal sketches, medieval disasters, religious misunderstandings, musical chaos and comedy that refuses to behave sensibly.
Some treasures at Kate's Treasures15 are chosen because they are beautiful or useful. Others are here because they belonged to my dad and formed part of a collection shaped by his genuine love of cinema, unforgettable performances and the craft of filmmaking.
Dad was an actor and scriptwriter who understood how difficult it was to make comedy appear effortless. His collection reflected a lifelong appreciation for fearless performers, brilliantly constructed sketches and writers willing to abandon ordinary logic in pursuit of something genuinely original.
Monty Python: The Movies brings together four major screen releases featuring Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin.
And Now for Something Completely Different recreates many of the troupe’s best-known early sketches for the cinema, including the Dead Parrot, the Lumberjack Song and the Upper-Class Twit of the Year.
Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life returns to the troupe’s sketch-based style for an outrageously irreverent journey through birth, education, work, war, religion, ageing and death.
Monty Python’s Life of Brian follows Brian Cohen, an ordinary man born in the stable beside Jesus who repeatedly finds himself mistaken for someone far more spiritually significant than he ever intended to become.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail sends King Arthur and his increasingly unfortunate knights across medieval Britain in search of the legendary Grail, assisted by imaginary horses, coconut shells and a highly questionable approach to leadership.
Across all four films, Monty Python turns history, religion, bureaucracy, social convention and the basic structure of storytelling into opportunities for satire, wordplay and magnificent nonsense.
A brilliant addition for collectors of classic British comedy and Monty Python’s distinctive blend of intelligent satire, surreal invention and completely unnecessary coconuts.
