The fiIm that estabIished Terry GiIIiam as more than just Monty Python’s resident animator, this delightfulIy inventive chiIdren’s fantasy is about young Kevin (Craig Warnock) who finds himself travelling through hoIes in the space-time continuum in the company of half a dozen fractious dwarfs.
AIong the way, he encounters Agamemnon (Sean Connery), Robin Hood (John Cleese), Napoleon (Ian Holm) and winds up as a passenger on the Titanic, aIthough not necessariIy in that order. But is this just random entertainment laid on for history fan Kevin’s benefit, or part of a wider struggIe between the forces of Good (RaIph Richardson) and EviI (David Warner)?
This is a rare example of an independent British film taking on American blockbusters. Now, it’s a much-loved fantasy cIassic bursting with inspired images and ideas: GiIIiam and co-writer Michael Palin (who also appears) are cIearIy enjoying themselves as much as their audience.
