Even though it has been about two years since I've watched the movie, this book brings back every memory of it! The script is superb and if you've seen the movie, you'll visualize each scene as it happens while reading this book. Even though the book doesn't contain any 'extras', it's worth every penny - the script will have you in stitches! "What, ridden on a horse?" ... "You're using two empty halves of coconuts and banging them together." Need I say more? :)
Format:Paperback
Originally produced at a time before the advent of not only DVD but also video recorders, `Monty Python and the Holy Grail' was issued as a script book for those people who wanted to enjoy it in the comfort of their own home. The book also contains as curiosities the initial draft of the script showing how it was improved upon during production. Also included is the production costs, I imagine only American film producers would know how funny they are.
The Holy Grails script is of a consistent quality and every sketch (used deliberately rather than more traditional scenes) is a success. Sketches such as the Black Knight, the Three Headed Knight, Tim the Enchanter and the Knights that say Nee are amongst the best sketches of not only Python lineage but of all time.

This is a fantastic book, not only containing the script, but also photos from the film, sketches, diagrams and out takes, and old copies of the original script, absolutely fantastic, highly recommended!

And now for something completely different
A useful book when not in the vicinity of a VCR or DVD player, however it is merely a transcript of the film with no extras. Read more

Rare look at the metamorphosis of a script
It's rare that you get to see a script come together from first draft to final product and all the stages in between. Read more
