Among the six members of Anaconda (in fact, all the actors), Terry Gilliam is the one who has died the most times in the film. A total of four deaths are the Green Knight, Sir Bowes, the animator and the guard. Bridge man. Michael Palin played the most roles (ten in total). In the scene where Sir Launcelot escaped from Swamp Castle on a swing, one can see a certain guard who has died in the movie waving to the camera. Although this is a medieval movie, there is only one horse in the whole film, that is, when the knight breaks in and kills the historian. In other places in the movie, the horses are replaced by servants who beat coconut shells (because this is funny, it saves money, and it also allows the Python members to avoid equestrian lessons).
The film’s grotesque plot and unexpected ending are inseparable from director Terry Gilliam’s mythological complex and his personal experience. In his early years, he was the animation director of the sensational comedy series Monty Python, and Monty Python's specialty is to deconstruct familiar myths with modern consciousness. It's not difficult to explain the interspersed and influence of the real events in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" and "The Python and the Holy Grail". This director, who is outside the mainstream of Hollywood and who is not in the eyes of European critics, has made fans all over the world who love him go crazy.
