And Now for Something Completely Different

And Now for Something Completely Different (1971) starring Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones, Michael Palin, Carol Cleveland, Connie Booth. The Monty Python gang appear in a number of funny skits originally seen on their TV show in England. Included are the Dead Parrot, Upper-Class Twit of the Year, and the amusing Lumberjack Song. This movie is a great introduction to Monty Python's strange style of humor for anyone who hasn't seen them in their original numbers. They're really very silly, but that's intentional. (English subtitles are available for the hearing-impaired.) Grade: A-
