Day #7 of the 30 Day Film Challenge.

A film you never get tired of..

[I don't know I can get tired of pretty much anything at some point..and I already chose Spirited Away and Raiders of the Lost Arc for another selection.]

Let's see. Also there's a lot of films I've seen multiple times.

This one is hard. I was going to go with everyone's favorite - Star Wars, but decided to go with a cult hit instead.

You are a step ahead of me, I can't quote anything. Well, unless I worked hard on memorizing it. Have you ever tried acting - you'd have no issues remembering lines.

Agreed on Monty Python and the Holy Grail - it is by far the best of the Python films. (Wait, did I see Spamalot with you or Wales? I can't remember. I think it was with you, and Avenue Que was with Wales. Spamalot was king of a musical version of Monty Python and the Holy Grail - although nowhere near as good.)

Spamalot was Holy Grail filtered through the viewpoint of one Python (Eric Idle). It was never going to be as good as all six working together at peak capacity.

When I auditioned for an advanced theater class in college, my "dramatic monologue" was a Robin Williams routine, from his full gonzo stand up era. The faculty must have thought I wasn't taking it seriously, so they said, "Thank you! NEXT!"--and moved on.

I also played Death (in full Grim Reaper make up and costume!) for a student film version of Woody Allen's short play, "Death Knocks". I had no problem with the dialogue. I loved the costume. But the film making process was teeeeeeeeediouuuussss.

I never did see the completed film.

Well, that's show biz.
