Get ready to grab your coconut shells and head to the cinema! Monty Python and The Holy Grail, one of the greatest comedy films of all time, is returning to cinema for a very limited time starting from February 21st. It’s been 48 and a half years since its original theatrical release, so let’s celebrate this classic movie together.
The film parodies the legend of King Arthur’s quest for the Holy Grail. King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table embark on a surreal, low-budget search for the Holy Grail, encountering many, very silly obstacles along the way – from the Black Knight and the Knights of Say “Ni!” to French Taunters and a Killer Rabbit.
Monty Python’s 1975 film was written and performed by its cast, including Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, and Michael Palin. It was directed by Terry Gilliam and Terry Jones in their feature directorial debuts.
As well as being able to catch the film in cinemas, fans are also being given the opportunity to attend a special quote-a-long screening of the film, which will be shown in selected cinemas nationwide. This fun and entertaining version gives everyone the chance to shout out famous lines like, ‘She’s a witch!’, ‘Bring out your dead’ and ‘I fart in your general direction’. This quote-a-long edition was created specifically to celebrate the anniversary and give cinema-goers an interactive and uproarious experience in a way that only Monty Python can deliver.
So, gather your Knights and get ready to go on a Medieval quest this February as Monty Python and The Holy Grail returns to cinemas for a very limited time and don’t forget to ask for a “Shrubbery” at the cinema counter LOL.
Monty Python and The Holy Grail is presented by Graft Entertainment.
Tickets are on sale now from www.holygrailincinemas.com with early booking recommended for these limited screenings.
