I haven’t watched it in years. It’s only a flesh wound.

I would say it was made on a shoestring budget, but they probably couldn't have afforded a shoestring. Talent will find a way.

King Arthur: I am your king.

Peasant Woman: Well, I didn't vote for you.

King Arthur: You don't vote for kings.

Peasant Woman: Well, how'd you become king, then?

[Angelic music plays... ] King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.

Dennis the Peasant: Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Arthur: Be quiet!

Dennis the Peasant: You can't expect to wield supreme power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!


One of the best

the film was financed by eight investors - Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson, Holy Grail co-producer Michael White, Heartaches (a cricket team founded by lyricist Tim Rice), and 3 record companies including Charisma Records, the record label that released Python's early comedy albums.[10] The investors contributed the entire original budget of £175,350 (about $410,000 in 1974). He added that this group also received a cut of the proceeds from the 2005 musical Spamalot.[11]

The French dialogue at the Norman castle is gold.
“Go away you English wiper of other people’s bottoms, your father is a hamster and Your mother smells of elderberries.” “Come back and I shall be forced to taunt you a second time.”
John Cleese is an absolute comic genius.

I love the movie, but the ending has always felt a little off to me.
