I saturated out on Monty Python years ago (after a 24-hour Monty Python marathon) but this movie is still a gem.
The scene with Denis the Constitutional Peasant (https://notallwhowanderarelost268.wordpress.com/2018/04/08/monty-pythons-peasants-a-cinematic-lesson-in-historiography/ https://notallwhowanderarelost268.wordpress.com/2018/04/08/m...) is absolute genius parody of socialism and republicanism (hope that's the right term).
