The Twelfth of my Re-enactment series.
This is a reenactment of one of many GREAT scenes found in the film "Monty Python and the Holy Grail." I'm a big fan of Monty Python.
For those of you who haven't seen the movie, lemme 'splain. King Arthur is searching the land for knights to join his court at Camelot. He comes across a peasant named Dennis, who proceeds to tell him his views on government.
This is the first re-enactment I've done where I play three people: King Arthur, and two peasants. With the peasants I wrapped myself up in a wide variety of quilts and blankets... with King Arthur... well, I literally had nothing that closely resembled what Graham Chapman wore in the movie. So, T-Shirt it is.
The editing is what was really useful. I had to cut almost all of the dead space to make it seem really fast-paced. That's the thing with British comedy: they have the ability to cram over 10 minutes of dialogue into 2 minutes or less. It's insane, really.
My only regret with this one: I said the word "aquatic" wrong. In the movie, Palin says "aQUAHtic" instead of "aQUOHtic..." if that make sense. You hardcore Pythonians know what I mean.
