Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Book) (original) (raw)

Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Book), also known as Mønti Pythøn ik den Hølie Gräilen (Bøk), is the literary companion to the 1975 film of the same name, assembled by co-director Terry Jones. Released in 1977, the main body of the book is the final draft of the screenplay, complete with sections that were cut from the final film scribbled out. Also included is the first draft, much of which bears little resemblance to the final product and parts of which ended up in the fourth series of Monty Python, following John Cleese's departure. Many photographs and Terry Gilliam sketches appear throughout the book.
