"Monty Python’s Sämtliche Worte" bietet den kompletten Text aller Folgen der legendären Comedyserie "Monty Python’s Flying Circus" in deutscher Übersetzung. Die Serie, die 1969 begann, verzauberte ein breites Publikum mit ihrem absurden Humor. Das Buch verspricht skurriles Vergnügen und tiefere Einsichten in die oft missverstandenen Witze.

The Monty Python team's first feature film is a mock-heroic tale set in Medieval Britain with lots of silly things going on. King Arthur, Launcelot, Galahad, Robin and the rest all appear in this screenplay edition, which contains just the script, supplemented by stills from the film.

When The Life of Brian was first released in 1979 it was hailed by most as Monty Python's finest parody and denounced by a few as the most blasphemous film of all time. But, with its unforgettable songs and its infinitely quotable script it has gone on to become an enduring cult classic. schovat popis

October 1999 marked the 30th anniversary of the first broadcast of Monty Python's Flying Circus on BBC television. This book contains the full script with pictures of the last Monty Python film.

Re-issue of a classic Monty Python humour title containing all their most famous songs, with a foreword by 'Elvis Presley', and complete instructions on how to play the piano. From The Lumberjack Song to Always Look on the Bright Side of Life, The Fairly Incomplete & Rather Badly Illustrated Monty Python Songbook does pretty much what it says on the cover, collecting up the cream of the Python team's musical output from the four TV series and the various feature films. Included are such gems as Eric the Half-a-Bee, Sit on My Face and Tell Me That You Love Me, Bruces' Philosophers Song, Oliver Cromwell, The Knights of the Round Table, Christmas in Heaven, and All Things Dull & Ugly amongst many others, all arranged with music for the piano and accompanied by Terry Gilliam's incomparable cartoons.

For the first time all surviving Pythons have agreed to create the definitive story of Monty Python's Flying Circus and the 'genius' who created it. Over thirty years ago, a group of five Englishmen - and one wayward American - rewrote the rules of comedy. Monty Python's Flying Circus, an unheralded, previously unseen half-hour show of sketches, hilarities, inanities and animations, first appeared on the BBC late one night in 1969. Its impact has been felt on the world ever since. From its humble beginnings, it blossomed into the most influential movement in modern comedy. THE PYTHONS' AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE PYTHONS is a unique look at arguably the most important comic team of the modern age, lavishly illustrated with 1000 photographs, many culled from the team's own personal collections, many more seen for the first time. This is the definitive word on all things Pythonesque.

A minor cult classic by a major comic talent.

Graham Chapman is said to have been Monty Python's one true anarchist. This work contains everything from Graham Chapman's sketches and transcripts of his lecture tours to letters to his bank manager and reflections on his fellow Pythons and offers an insight into the real Graham Chapman.
