the second of the monty python film's is generally considered to be the best of the series, although this was actually the first time iv seen the film in its entirety. personally i think the film suffers a little from the focus on the narrative, it didnt feel as scattershot as "the holy grail", which for this type of comedy i think is key. the opening scene after the beautifully animated credits is genuinely a thing of wonder though, absolutely ridiculous and hilarious. the sight of the woman (man!?) carrying a rubber donkey over her shoulders is one of the sights i will never forget.
