Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Há um filme que qualquer pessoa que goste de comédia não devia mesmo, mas mesmo perder: "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". Para além de ser um filme dos grandes génios da comédia e mentores de muito do que se faz hoje em termos de comédia (apesar de não ser um comediante, sinto-me inspirado por eles mesmo antes de os ter visto. Estranho, não é?), é das coisas mais originais e pointless que já vi. Desde uma conversa inicial sobre o tipo de andorinhas que havia naquele país, passando pelo quanto pesa uma bruxa, tendo como companhia os cavaleiros que fazem "NI", lutando com o cavaleiro negro na ponte e matando um coelho branco comedor de homens. Todo o filme é genial, caraças.
Decidi fazer uma pequena "homenagem" ao filme porque encontrei um pequeno diálogo do filme, que mostra bem como o filme é. Apesar de ver ser melhor do que ler neste caso, acho que já dá para ficarem com aquele bichinho e alugarem/comprarem/sacarem (não condeno ninguém) o filme.

Bridgekeeper: Stop. Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.

Robin: That's easy.
Bridgekeeper: Stop. Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.

Sir Bedevere: How do know so much about swallows?

King Arthur: Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

Obrigado.
