With my forum name I'm a bit worried.....
"Michael Rennie was ill the day the Earth stood still, & he told us where it began...And Flash Gordon was there in silver underwear, Claude Raines was the Invisible Man..." But the Pythons are special...Still think "Holy Grail" is maybe the funniest movie ever made...Watched it umpteen times & STILL find something new & absurd to laugh at...I dunno if I could ever get so sad or depressed that a good dose of Python zaniness couldn't bring me out of it. Hope not, anyhow. And I think their popularity is universal. Played Grail once for a bunch of kids who were, well, uhh, Rednecks, most unsophisticated types who had no idea who the Pythons were, or what they were about...At first, they were kinda stupefied, but by the end of the flick, they were howling at it, & afterwards were reciting dialog like everybody else does. Ni !
