Once in a lifetime, there comes a motion picture which changes the whole history of motion pictures. A picture so stunning in its effect, so vast in its impact that it profoundly affects the lives of all who see it.

Very good, thank you. Yes, thank you. Next, please.

ONCE! IN A! LIFETIME!
Voice Director:
[annoyed]
Go away!
Gumby Narrator:
[shocked]
What?
Voice Director:
Next!

What's wrong with my voice? My voice is alright, my brain is wrong...

Voice Director:
[pleased]
That's more like it!
Asian Narrator:
One such film is Kurosawa's "The Seven Samurai". Another was "Ivan the Terrible". Then there are more run-of-the-mill films like... "Herbie Rides Again", "La Notte", and "Monty Python and the Holy Grail".

Transcript
Hello!
Welcome, gentle Sir Knight.
Welcome to the Castle Anthrax.
- The Castle Anthrax?
- Yes.
It's not a very good name, is it?
But we are nice, and we will attend
to your every, every need!
You are the keepers of the Holy Grail?
- The what?
- The Grail. It is here?
But you are tired, and you must rest awhile.
Midget! Crapper!
- Yes, O Zoot?
- Prepare a bed for our guest.
- Thank you, Zoot.
- Thank you.
Away, away, varletesses!
The beds here are warm and soft,
and very, very big.
- Look, I...
- What is your name, handsome knight?
Sir Galahad the Chaste.
Mine is Zoot. Just Zoot.
- But come.
- Please, in God's name, show me the Grail.
You have suffered much. You are delirious.
- Look, I have seen it. It is here.
- Sir Galahad!
You would not be so ungallant
as to refuse our hospitality.
I'm afraid our life must seem very dull
and quiet, compared to yours.
We're eight score blondes and brunettes,
all between 16 and 19 and a half,
cut off in this castle,
with no one to protect us.
It is a lonely life.
Bathing, dressing, undressing,
making exciting underwear.
We are just not used to handsome knights.
Nay. Come. You may lie here.
- But you are wounded!
- No, it's nothing!
You must see the doctors immediately.
Please, lie down.
- Well, what seems to be the trouble?
- They're doctors?
They have a basic medical training.
Come, come, you must try to rest.
Dr. Piglet! Dr. Winston! Practice your art.
- Try to relax.
- Are you sure that's absolutely necessary?
We must examine you.
