That castle in Scotland that Cleese is talking about, he actually managed to damage it. In the French taunting scene, he swung his sword at the outside wall and managed to take a chunk out of the brick work, about the size of a tennis ball, and they were scared shitless that they’d need to pay to repair it but I’m pretty sure they mounted a plaque underneath it saying “Improved by John Cleese”
He has such a fantastic singing voice, the Beatles didn't utilize his voice as much as they should have. Probably because Paul McCartney was the best rock singing voice of the 60s and he happened to be in the same band
'that ever lived' - either a deliberately or accidentally superfluous embellishment or you're implying that perhaps Stu Sutcliffe had been the coolest ever Beatle until George put in 2 million for the second or third best Python movie in my book.
I've met John Cleese. Helped him find an encyclopedia when I worked at Borders. No celebrity attitude at all, he's just the nicest guy. Like meeting a friend's Dad. Had a funny incident another time when I was at the main info desk, and Cleese and his lovely wife came in. They talked to me for a couple minutes, then Mr. Cleese told his wife he'd be over at the coffee bar and walked away. So I'm still helping and chatting with his wife, also such a nice lady. Anyway, seconds after Cleese walked away this dude comes rushing up to the info desk, stands right next to Mrs. Cleese and starts going off "Was that John Cleese? OHMYGOD!!! I LOVE HIM! HE'S SO AWESOME! HE'S THE FUNNIEST GUY!" and so on, and in the meantime, Mrs. Cleese and I are just looking at each other, eyes kinda locked on each other, both biting our lips trying not to laugh as this guy, unknowingly is fangirling BIG TIME about how awesome Mr.Cleese is (which is true, to be fair), and standing right next to his wife! She and I both had a good laugh when the star-struck young man walked off, and I asked her "Does that happen often?" and she said "All. The. Time." She was pretty awesome too. And quite pretty as well, if I recall.

reminds me of a joke sometimes attributed to Churchill: On one of the recent warm days a sour-visaged, fussy lady got on one of the smoking seats on an open car in the subway. Next her sat a man who was smoking a cigar. More than that, the lady, sniffing, easily made out that the man had been eating onions. Still more than that, she had the strongest kind of suspicion that he had been drinking beer. The lady fussed and wriggled, and grew angrier, and looked at the man scornfully. Presently she could endure it no longer. She looked squarely at him and said: ‘If you were my husband, sir, I’d give you a dose of poison!’ The man looked at her. ‘If I were your husband,’ said he, ‘I’d take it!’
@@corbeau-_- the version I've heard of this held that the lady in question was Nancy Astor, who had a long-standing dislike of Churchill. And the wording of the joke is: Astor: Winston, if you were my husband, I'd put poison in your tea! Churchill: Madam, if you were my wife - I would drink it!
We all have it - the key issue is timing. Can you come up with it in one second and have the guts to say it and the skill not to flub it? Or do you only think of it much later when the moment has passed, or even if you do, do you stumble over it? The vast majority of us are in the latter category
@@corbeau-_- Yeah, this was Lady Astor who said she'd poison his tea, and he said he would drink it. The New York Times reported it in 1949 (without naming Astor), and a book in 52 named her, but it apparently was already an old joke by then and it had been in print in other contexts with other participants
I don't know if it was Lady Astor who was involved with the other Churchill classic- "Mr Churchill, you are drunk" "Madam, you are ugly - but I shall be sober in the morning "
George freaking Harrison of the Beatles gave his friend and the friend's comedy troupe £2 million because he "wanted to see the movie". What a bloody legend! This interview is so damn good too, John Cleese has a very pleasant voice, a great way of telling stories and drops solid jokes in such a natural, fluid way. John Cleese is forever brilliant. All of the Monty Python crew and ceeations was and still remains brilliant. George Harrison was brilliant, and still is, where ever he may be.
£2M was not a small amount.. probably equivalent to £10M+ in 2020… you could buy a house in London for a few thousand pounds and a new car cost less than £700 …. Yep George Harrison was a rich man and now he is a legend..🙂
I was screaming on the floor laughing when I watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail for the first time. Lancelot's charge scene just broke me. I rarely laugh at comedies (doesn't mean I don't enjoy them or find them funny) or anything, really, so when a film gets that classic witch laugh of mine out, I am grateful.
you touched a nerve with this comment. I'm into senior years now, given to bouts of reflection about the too hastily passed past. And I do remember with great fondness a treasured moment when, along with a few good friends, we saw Holy Grail at the movie theatre. We all succumbed to the deepest belly laughter and weeping, breathless loss of control throughout the movie... Though I do not know you Steambull1, I have a feeling we'd have gotten along just fine, seeing how we had this in common. What a great memory that is!
Eric Idle (I think) said that by funding the film, Harrison entered the record books as the person who spent the most money to buy a ticket to see a film.
Mine, too! Usually, people get into fights over John or Paul, but George did more with his Beatle status than all the others. Frank Sinatra started off hating rock music and The Beatles but he eventually met them and thought they weren't all that bad. Sinatra's favorite Beatle? George. Harrison and Patty Boyd dropped by a Sinatra recording session in 1968. There's a photo of them on the back of Sinatra's "Cycles" album - it's pretty cool, and you can tell they're talking, not just posing for a photo. Have a great weekend, wherever you're having it. :)
Hand Made Films. Started with 'Life of Brian', and then: 'Long Good Friday', 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' 'Withnail and I'... Hand Made. Thank you George!
Honestly I don't understand how their budgets were even as large as they were? The only thing in Monty Python and the Holy Grail that I can think of that should have cost much money at all was that trojan rabbit. Life of Brian used literally nothing except costumes.
that's crazy to think that they almost didn't use coconuts... especially if you are from germany, since the movie's german title is "Ritter der Kokosnuss" which translates to "Kights of the Coconut"
3:40 "Hint hint." Oh god he's brilliant xD he just has this whole feeling of delightfulness and light-heartedness about him, I can feel my stress levels decreasing just by listening to him
George was a big fan of George Formby-the thirties, British ukelele-player and film star. At George's funeral, Joe Brown (60's pop star) serenaded him with 'I'll see you in my dreams' on the uke.
George Harrison ... wow. just wow. You know he (George Harrison) wrote one of the most beautiful and coolest contemporary songs dedicated to the Creator; it's no wonder he was interested in a story about a character finding his purpose for his Creator. George came back to help Monty Python in the 80s with TIME BANDITS and made their theme song, or at least the ending track. Final thoughts: Monty Python, John Cleese, Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Graham Chapman and Terry Jones ... all Heaven Sent. Thanks for sharing this clip. Thumbs up .
You can tell seth is in pure admiration and is trying hard to keep things from going awkward while trying not to say the wrong thing and piss off john .. because john can be an intimidating interview, especially if either he doesnt like you or you ask a dumb question.. he's always been quick and able to make somebody eat their own words..
@@Amadeus-ni3et Yeah and Mozart is dead, Justin Bieber is still going strong. See American humour sometimes lacks a bit of intelligence. Haha didn't realise your name is Amadeus as well, perfect.
It's good to know that there are still people out there to spread dignity and decency while being comically rude. John Cleese is just a gem. I actually am reading his autobiography "So, anyway..." at the moment. Worth a read. :)
I remember seeing a clip where John Cleese was describing how the Enchanter actually was given some exotic name, but after the camera started rolling, he couldn't remember it. He just blurted out Tim because that's all he could come up with.
@@Kiltem You can't literally see comedy. It's a concept. You can (figuratively) see comedy growing in his brain.

@@hijodelaisla275 I can literally see you ripping yourself apart like Rumpelstiltskin when you see me literally using "literally" in this "wrong" (but has been correct for ages) sense.
Conjugated, would it be "Eatis"? But I'm not sure what the plural imperative of this would be. I remember using the Latin exercise book at school: Ecce Romani! So, if I remember correctly, Romani is the plural of Romans.
That scene always kills me. Partly because I had 5 years of Latin in school and the dialogue could've been lifted straight out of one of my classes. Even down to little details like "how many Romans?" and the bit about the locative.
One of the reasons Cleese (and the other Pythons for that matter) is his openness for situations, people and opinions. As he said in this interview he loves it when he doesn't know what will happen. Getting in touch with as many different things, people and situations helps growing as a person but as we can see also with doing comedy. The Python's sketches were anarchic, chaotic, all over the place because their minds weren't stuck in small worlds. I would love to hang around with any of the Pythons but especially Cleese, one could have a heavy argument about politics one minute and discuss life insurance rates for mayflies the next minute.
If George Harrison wasn't already a legend, which he obviously was, then this makes him an even bigger one. Imagine a world without Life of Brian, it doesn't bear thinking about! We wouldn't have that hilarious debate between Clease & Palin against those idiot clergy dudes!
*That* had a bigger effect on me than the actual film! The film was funny, but that was on the 'serious' TV channel so carried more weight for me. That was when I realised, at 14, that it was not only ok not to believe in this God character, but also ok to regard the whole thing as really very silly. I wasn't raised massively religious, but went to Chapel (Welsh) and Sunday School and got fed it like it was sweet. That debate showed me how foolish & limiting the upper tier of religions were. Even watching it felt like a subversive act since I snuck downstairs after everyone had gone to bed.
I wasn't allowed to watch Monty Python at my grandparents' house (who had a nice TV) because they were religious and considered it offensive so watching it became an act of rebellion. I loved how the Pythons pointed out that the Church was telling people not to go see a movie with the central theme being think for yourselves and don't just blindly follow religious authorities, and that the ban made it so successful. What I remember most about the debate you refer to is the Catholic priest or bishop or whatever his title was who had on a resplendent purple dress and my gaydar went to 11 watching him speak.
Saw Holy Grail in Westwood, CA on opening night. As we walked in the lobby, everyone was being given a coconut out of huge crates. We didn’t know why until the opening scene.
What a pant load. Harrison reduced his music to the Buddhist equivalent of christian rock. The Beatles made pretty good music. They're not important, and all those claiming the contrary are just those trying to boost their own self importance by publicly noting how clever they are for having "noticed". So kindly stuff it up an orifice of your own chosing.
Jai Guru The Beatles weren't important to rock music you say? That is about as funny a comment as anything Monty Python did. And trust me, that's saying a lot! Lol.
Michael Faircloth You don't know what he's talking about? That's OK. Neither does Jai Guru. For a guru, he sure is ignorant. He thinks Harrison's music was preseletyzing Buddhism, lol. Buddhism isn't even a religion. But Jai Guru is maybe the only "guru" in the world who doesn't know that.
When John C said the castle had become a tourist attraction, I imagined Python tragics standing up at the wall, day after day, year after year, each yelling that line down at anyone who is below :)
I think this is perfect example of why most British jokes do not translate well ( if at all) into a popular "Foreign Languages" like French or German etc. Even though as native English speakers we all speak a modern variant of a 1000+ year old Proto-Germanic language Saxon the French and German tongue has changed so much. Yes they have jokes too some very funny but translate them to modern English and the become "I Fart...)
Oh, wicked, bad, naughty Zoot! She has been setting alight to our beacon, which, I have just remembered, is grail-shaped. It's not the first time we've had this problem.
Life of Brian was far and away the best of the Monty Python movies, and while I was never a Beatles fan (too young) I have mad respect for George Harrison for both financing Life of Brian and forming the Travelling Wilburys. May he be rockin' in Paradise, whatever it may be.
@@Chapps1941 definately a matter of perspective. When I was younger I thought Holy Grail was the funniest thing I'd ever seen. And then I saw the Life of Brian. I still love Holy Grail, but I definately feel Life of Brian was the superior movie, both far better then the Meaning of Life. (which was still good)
@@exidy-yt I thought The Meaning of Life is much more subtle and insightful, so it's quite an experience. Life of Brian has some childish jokes (they are good though) which are quite similar to Holy Grail as they are enjoyable for both young and old people. So I never understand when someone says getting older = seeing LoB is better than HG. Just because one gets old doesn't mean one's self becomes mature. That claim only makes the opposite impression.
@@thichinhphan4010 Getting older dosen't always mean one matures, but there's often a correlation, you can't deny that. MoL as I said was a great movie and had some hard hitting skits, but others were far more purile, even archaic at the time the movie was made. (the British upper-class stiff upper lip in the leg removal bit, for example) And I just feel LoB was the strongest of the three movies overall for consistant funny AND hard-hitting humor with far fewer missed bits then either of the other two movies. But as they say, opinions are like assholes. No two are alike, but all can make noise.
I first watched Python when PBS broadcast it in the early ‘70’s, when I was at the perfect stage of early adolescence. I credit them with helping to nurture my inherent twisted view of the world. Anyway, I’ve loved most of their work, but Cleese is responsible for probably my favorite comedy series, Fawlty Towers. It is a true classic.
I think that the fact that the film looks like it's about to rain all the time is on of its strong points; they are in the middle of an epic medieval adventure on a dreary sunday morning.
Cleese is a living god, I have never seen him do any performance that did not make me laugh out loud. I hope he is with us for a long time to come and enjoys that time immensely.
I was laughing so hard just hearing him tell the story. Had I been there,I can imagine laughing so hard I'm not sure I would have had the breath to even give the answer he did.
I think what ended up being holy grails greatest charm was the budget being so low. They made some of the cutbacks the funniest part. Goes to show you could have millions in making a comedy but it can still be bad but if you get the right writers and actors money doesn't matter. They will always be absolute legends.
A comedy God. It saddens me to see Terry Jones gone (with, ofc, Graham Chapman dying far, far too young) and know that Palin and Idle are 78, Gilliam is 79, and Cleese is 80. These gentlemen have brought me more joy through their humor than anyone I can think oif.
It sounds simple, but it's true! Scotland's nature just looks... old. And you can use however many beautiful words as you wish to describe it, but this already captures it very well

the irony...."good bless" to the man who made Life of Brian possible :)
It's a sincere tribute, but it's still ironic. Because both these men are using it at a cultural cliche, not because they are believers in god. Even though in a way Harrison was. Not that I know anything about his Hinduism or whatever.
This man is a comic genius, if something will bring a smile to my face on my death bed it will be this man, in his role as a hotel manager in a Torquay hotel!!!!

We all miss George. Gone too soon.
So while it could have been the most ever paid to watch a movie, it turned out to make enough money for a Beatle to notice!
"I want to see the movie". New affection for George Harrison this very minute.
Handmade Films was George's company. It made 23 films, a lot of them featuring various Pythons, before being sold to Paragon.
Makes it even funnier for me, because when I was in school my friends would do the line: "Brian is NOT the Messiah, he's a very NAUGHTY BOY."

We all have it - the key issue is timing. Can you come up with it in one second and have the guts to say it and the skill not to flub it? Or do you only think of it much later when the moment has passed, or even if you do, do you stumble over it? The vast majority of us are in the latter category
@@corbeau-_- Yeah, this was Lady Astor who said she'd poison his tea, and he said he would drink it. The New York Times reported it in 1949 (without naming Astor), and a book in 52 named her, but it apparently was already an old joke by then and it had been in print in other contexts with other participants
I don't know if it was Lady Astor who was involved with the other Churchill classic-
"Mr Churchill, you are drunk"
"Madam, you are ugly - but I shall be sober in the morning "
George freaking Harrison of the Beatles gave his friend and the friend's comedy troupe £2 million because he "wanted to see the movie". What a bloody legend!
This interview is so damn good too, John Cleese has a very pleasant voice, a great way of telling stories and drops solid jokes in such a natural, fluid way.
John Cleese is forever brilliant.
All of the Monty Python crew and ceeations was and still remains brilliant.
George Harrison was brilliant, and still is, where ever he may be.
£2M was not a small amount.. probably equivalent to £10M+ in 2020… you could buy a house in London for a few thousand pounds and a new car cost less than £700 …. Yep George Harrison was a rich man and now he is a legend..🙂
I was screaming on the floor laughing when I watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail for the first time. Lancelot's charge scene just broke me. I rarely laugh at comedies (doesn't mean I don't enjoy them or find them funny) or anything, really, so when a film gets that classic witch laugh of mine out, I am grateful.
The charge scene is the best
My guts hurt for days
you touched a nerve with this comment. I'm into senior years now, given to bouts of reflection about the too hastily passed past. And I do remember with great fondness a treasured moment when, along with a few good friends, we saw Holy Grail at the movie theatre. We all succumbed to the deepest belly laughter and weeping, breathless loss of control throughout the movie... Though I do not know you Steambull1, I have a feeling we'd have gotten along just fine, seeing how we had this in common. What a great memory that is!
While the Holy Grail is good, it has absolutely nothing on the Life of Brian
Right? I thought I discovered a new planet, when I first watched it.
Wow, I never knew George Harrison was responsible for Life of Brian.
He's actually in the movie. Small cameo.
Eric Idle (I think) said that by funding the film, Harrison entered the record books as the person who spent the most money to buy a ticket to see a film.
Mine, too! Usually, people get into fights over John or Paul, but George did more with his Beatle status than all the others. Frank Sinatra started off hating rock music and The Beatles but he eventually met them and thought they weren't all that bad. Sinatra's favorite Beatle? George. Harrison and Patty Boyd dropped by a Sinatra recording session in 1968. There's a photo of them on the back of Sinatra's "Cycles" album - it's pretty cool, and you can tell they're talking, not just posing for a photo.
Have a great weekend, wherever you're having it. :)
yeah that is great, I remembered Time Bandits as well, looked up in IMDB.com and he has 28 total producer credits!

Honestly I don't understand how their budgets were even as large as they were? The only thing in Monty Python and the Holy Grail that I can think of that should have cost much money at all was that trojan rabbit. Life of Brian used literally nothing except costumes.
Actually Brian says "You're all individuals!"

that's crazy to think that they almost didn't use coconuts... especially if you are from germany, since the movie's german title is "Ritter der Kokosnuss" which translates to "Kights of the Coconut"
that's awesome hahaha

Thank you George for financing one of my favourite movies. God bless him and R.I.P.
John has the best sense of humour ever. Nothing is off limits and he plays along with anybody.
Holy Grail was a work of genius
Best movie ever.

I agree. Absolutely the best gag in the film.

What a genuine pleasure to see Seth clearly enjoying the interview. As much a fan of John as we are.
I almost cried. Harrison was such a beautiful soul.
"Did the Queen kill Diana?" "Certainly not with her bare hands." That is called masterfully speaking.
"Well, not with her bare hands..." PRICELESS!
I mean it does say something about his sense of humor that 30,000 people were shocked and appalled and he was laughing his ass off XD
Lmao XD
SavageGreywolf its English humour xD
@@SavageGreywolf I'd be laughing with him and it'd be multiplied after his answer XD
Wow, when he sent that kiss up to the sky for George, I got the tingles and little tear in my eye. Cue "All Things Must Pass."
George was a big fan of George Formby-the thirties, British ukelele-player and film star. At George's funeral, Joe Brown (60's pop star) serenaded him with 'I'll see you in my dreams' on the uke.
George Harrison ... wow. just wow. You know he (George Harrison) wrote one of the most beautiful and coolest contemporary songs dedicated to the Creator; it's no wonder he was interested in a story about a character finding his purpose for his Creator. George came back to help Monty Python in the 80s with TIME BANDITS and made their theme song, or at least the ending track. Final thoughts: Monty Python, John Cleese, Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Graham Chapman and Terry Jones ... all Heaven Sent. Thanks for sharing this clip. Thumbs up .
This man is so admirable and intriguing that nobody can interrupt him. You just wanna keep listening to him talking.
One should never underestimate the sheer brilliance of Python simplicity.
You can tell seth is in pure admiration and is trying hard to keep things from going awkward while trying not to say the wrong thing and piss off john .. because john can be an intimidating interview, especially if either he doesnt like you or you ask a dumb question.. he's always been quick and able to make somebody eat their own words..

John Cleese has more comedic genius in one hair, then half the people on TV. That's including SNL also.

It's good to know that there are still people out there to spread dignity and decency while being comically rude. John Cleese is just a gem. I actually am reading his autobiography "So, anyway..." at the moment. Worth a read. :)

Safe to say, I think George made a profit on that one.
“What is your name enchanter, who can summon fire without flint and tinder?”
“There are some who call me...... Tim.”
If we were wizards, we'd all just be standing around, shooting fireballs and such too. That's probably just what they do, stand around and do that.
I remember seeing a clip where John Cleese was describing how the Enchanter actually was given some exotic name, but after the camera started rolling, he couldn't remember it. He just blurted out Tim because that's all he could come up with.
I love that he actively laughs at his thoughts. You can literally see the comedy growing in his brain.

Oh my gosh, what a delightful interview. I’ve been a fan of John Cleese my entire life.
Viscaria ASMR
I saw him on stage in 1973. Still remember every second of it...
'The Strange Case of the End of Civilization As We Know It' is worth a watch.
Well if he didn't like filming Quest for the Holy Grail, I'm glad he decided to stick with it anyway. The world is a better place for it.
Dunno bout the world, but it made me laugh a lot.
What's this, then? 'Romanes Eunt Domus'?
It says 'Romans, go home'
No, it doesn't. What's Latin for 'Roman'? Come on! Conjugate the verb 'to go'!
Plural.....plural!
People called Romanes, they go to the ‘ouse?!
Lol, theres an easter egg in FNV from that scene
Conjugated, would it be "Eatis"? But I'm not sure what the plural imperative of this would be.
I remember using the Latin exercise book at school: Ecce Romani! So, if I remember correctly, Romani is the plural of Romans.
That scene always kills me. Partly because I had 5 years of Latin in school and the dialogue could've been lifted straight out of one of my classes. Even down to little details like "how many Romans?" and the bit about the locative.
It makes me so happy to hear John say life of Brian is his favorite. I've always felt it was their absolute best film too.
One of the reasons Cleese (and the other Pythons for that matter) is his openness for situations, people and opinions. As he said in this interview he loves it when he doesn't know what will happen. Getting in touch with as many different things, people and situations helps growing as a person but as we can see also with doing comedy. The Python's sketches were anarchic, chaotic, all over the place because their minds weren't stuck in small worlds. I would love to hang around with any of the Pythons but especially Cleese, one could have a heavy argument about politics one minute and discuss life insurance rates for mayflies the next minute.
I see John Cleese and I click.
Same :)
That gut though..
I See a comment 'I see John Cleese and i click.' I click anyway
Dan Rob it could be carried by an African swallow
His 'thank you' speech for 'A Fish Called Wanda' is worth a look!
If George Harrison wasn't already a legend, which he obviously was, then this makes him an even bigger one. Imagine a world without Life of Brian, it doesn't bear thinking about! We wouldn't have that hilarious debate between Clease & Palin against those idiot clergy dudes!
*That* had a bigger effect on me than the actual film! The film was funny, but that was on the 'serious' TV channel so carried more weight for me. That was when I realised, at 14, that it was not only ok not to believe in this God character, but also ok to regard the whole thing as really very silly. I wasn't raised massively religious, but went to Chapel (Welsh) and Sunday School and got fed it like it was sweet. That debate showed me how foolish & limiting the upper tier of religions were. Even watching it felt like a subversive act since I snuck downstairs after everyone had gone to bed.
I wasn't allowed to watch Monty Python at my grandparents' house (who had a nice TV) because they were religious and considered it offensive so watching it became an act of rebellion.
I loved how the Pythons pointed out that the Church was telling people not to go see a movie with the central theme being think for yourselves and don't just blindly follow religious authorities, and that the ban made it so successful.
What I remember most about the debate you refer to is the Catholic priest or bishop or whatever his title was who had on a resplendent purple dress and my gaydar went to 11 watching him speak.
i like george even more now!!!!!!
And if it wasn't for Sir David Attenborough, we wouldn't have Monty Python at all.
He's not a Beatle! He's a very naughty boy!
Saw Holy Grail in Westwood, CA on opening night. As we walked in the lobby, everyone was being given a coconut out of huge crates. We didn’t know why until the opening scene.
Cleese and Atkinson are both grand maesters of comedy and should be treasured for as long as they are with us.
God, George Harrison was such an important human!
What a pant load. Harrison reduced his music to the Buddhist equivalent of christian rock. The Beatles made pretty good music. They're not important, and all those claiming the contrary are just those trying to boost their own self importance by publicly noting how clever they are for having "noticed". So kindly stuff it up an orifice of your own chosing.
Jai Guru The Beatles weren't important to rock music you say? That is about as funny a comment as anything Monty Python did. And trust me, that's saying a lot! Lol.
Oh and just for clarification, last I checked, Krishna has nothing to do with Buddhism. You're on a roll, Jai Guru! Hahahahahahaha!
Michael Faircloth You don't know what he's talking about? That's OK. Neither does Jai Guru. For a guru, he sure is ignorant. He thinks Harrison's music was preseletyzing Buddhism, lol. Buddhism isn't even a religion. But Jai Guru is maybe the only "guru" in the world who doesn't know that.
Jai Guru yet you are here publicly denouncing them to boost your own self-importance. It's just sad
"Certainly not with her bare hands" 😂😂😂 I almost lost my phone under the bus because of that one! 😅

Jeez, This is *very* common French taunt. They just lifted it for the film.
I think this is perfect example of why most British jokes do not translate well ( if at all) into a popular "Foreign Languages" like French or German etc. Even though as native English speakers we all speak a modern variant of a 1000+ year old Proto-Germanic language Saxon the French and German tongue has changed so much. Yes they have jokes too some very funny but translate them to modern English and the become "I Fart...)

Life of Brian was far and away the best of the Monty Python movies, and while I was never a Beatles fan (too young) I have mad respect for George Harrison for both financing Life of Brian and forming the Travelling Wilburys. May he be rockin' in Paradise, whatever it may be.
The Holy Grail was better. It was a better series of jokes
@@Chapps1941 definately a matter of perspective. When I was younger I thought Holy Grail was the funniest thing I'd ever seen. And then I saw the Life of Brian. I still love Holy Grail, but I definately feel Life of Brian was the superior movie, both far better then the Meaning of Life. (which was still good)
@@exidy-yt I thought The Meaning of Life is much more subtle and insightful, so it's quite an experience. Life of Brian has some childish jokes (they are good though) which are quite similar to Holy Grail as they are enjoyable for both young and old people. So I never understand when someone says getting older = seeing LoB is better than HG. Just because one gets old doesn't mean one's self becomes mature. That claim only makes the opposite impression.
@@thichinhphan4010 Getting older dosen't always mean one matures, but there's often a correlation, you can't deny that. MoL as I said was a great movie and had some hard hitting skits, but others were far more purile, even archaic at the time the movie was made. (the British upper-class stiff upper lip in the leg removal bit, for example) And I just feel LoB was the strongest of the three movies overall for consistant funny AND hard-hitting humor with far fewer missed bits then either of the other two movies. But as they say, opinions are like assholes. No two are alike, but all can make noise.

malipo 777 for a split second being ushered through the crowd by John Cleese. Look close. You'll see it
I first watched Python when PBS broadcast it in the early ‘70’s, when I was at the perfect stage of early adolescence. I credit them with helping to nurture my inherent twisted view of the world. Anyway, I’ve loved most of their work, but Cleese is responsible for probably my favorite comedy series, Fawlty Towers. It is a true classic.
I love John- he has always had such a beautiful love of comedy. I just love that HE still loves to laugh so much.
I think that the fact that the film looks like it's about to rain all the time is on of its strong points; they are in the middle of an epic medieval adventure on a dreary sunday morning.
Spot on George Harrison impression lol.
Agreed! He successfully switched from his British accent, from his neck of the woods, to George's British accent, Liverpool area.
Sounded just like Paul

Cleese is a living god, I have never seen him do any performance that did not make me laugh out loud. I hope he is with us for a long time to come and enjoys that time immensely.
I love the story about the woman asking if the Queen killed Diana. He was laughing so hard! 😂
She did.
I was laughing so hard just hearing him tell the story. Had I been there,I can imagine laughing so hard I'm not sure I would have had the breath to even give the answer he did.
Diana chose a lifestyle that directly led to what happened. Tabloid media was just the weapon.
@@docsavage8640-WTF!

I think what ended up being holy grails greatest charm was the budget being so low. They made some of the cutbacks the funniest part. Goes to show you could have millions in making a comedy but it can still be bad but if you get the right writers and actors money doesn't matter. They will always be absolute legends.
