About the film: Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) is a cult classic British comedy that parodies the legend of King Arthur and his knights in their quest for the Holy Grail. Expect absurd humor, quotable one-liners, and a healthy dose of medieval silliness. Rated PG; contains slapstick violence, satirical religious humor, and 1970s-style comedic language.

Accessibility: Individuals with disabilities are encouraged to attend all University of Iowa–sponsored events. If you require a reasonable accommodation to participate, please contact Brandon Dean in advance at brandon-dean@uiowa.edu.
