Patsy, the much-overlooked...

[mike kohn]

My hero in the film "Monty Python and The Holy Grail" would ultimately
be "Patsy", the rubber-faced "horse" of King Arthur, whose grimaces
and facial contortions are pure comic genius. The film itself has a
great deal of comedy abounding beyond the confines of the center
camera hijinx. An entire viewing evening or three can be made just
watching the background & screen perimiters instead of the main focus
of the camera. Many subtle and not so subtle hilarious moments
abound.

Favorite line?? There are so many. Tonight, the funniest strikes me
as being from Tim the Enchanter. "There are some... that call
me.......Tim." I don't know why that is funny, it just is. "You are
a busy man" quips Arthur, which bowls me over.

If you don't own a copy of this film and still rely on rentals or
midnight viewings at a run down theatre, go out to Best Buy and get
one! Next time there is nothing on the television but a penguin, pop
it in. You will never tire of it.

Squire . . . Lancer . . . "horse" . . . I think he was all.
