The story
The year is 932. King Arthur travels the land in search of brave men to join his Knights of the Round Table. Along the way, he debates whether swallows can carry coconuts, explains to two anarcho-syndicalist peasants how he received Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake, and chops up the "invincible" Black Knight. After leaving Camelot in disappointment ("It is a silly place"), God appears to him from the clouds and assigns him a mission: to find the Holy Grail.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail Monty Python and the Holy Grail
In their second feature film, the Monty Pythons gleefully mock the clichés of historical drama, mythical heroism, educational films, and even subtitles ("Mynd you, møøøse bites kan be pretti nasti.").

Sex, Love and Dreams—not necessarily in that order—are the chapters in a loosely connected trilogy set in contemporary Oslo. In Sex, an intimate conversation between two men sparks a witty and refreshingly honest reflection on sexuality and gender roles in our society.
