Ep. 17 - Monty Python and the Holy Grail/Tampopo

from The Midnight Matinee Hosted by Ben York

On today’s episode of The Midnight Matinee, the hosts kick back and watch a couple fun and comfortable films with some genuine filmmaking behind them. First up, we take a look at the classic tale of King Arthur and his Knights through the mind of 5 Brits and 1 American at a surprisingly low budget. It’s, of course, 1975’s influential silly film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Next up, we take a look to 80’s Japan as a pair of truck drivers help a struggling Ramen shop, leading to a tangential comedy commenting on many aspects of pop culture and film. It’s kind, it’s warm, it’s absolutely delicious...it’s 1985’s Tampopo.
