Part VII - The Grim Reaper - Monty Python's The Meaning of Life (movie)

Monty Python's The Meaning of Life is a 1983 comedy film by the Monty Python comedy team. Unlike the two previous films they had made, which had each told a single, more or less coherent story, The Meaning of Life returns to the sketch comedy format of the troupe's original television series, loosely structured as a series of comic skits about the various stages of life, roughly based on the Seven Ages of Man.

Anyone see the above movie?

Your opinion of Part VII?

How about The Seventh Seal? (Movie by Ingmar Bergman)

Your opinion of The Seventh Seal?

"It's a Mr. Death. Something about the reaping. Honestly, I don't think we need any."

A delightfully funny sketch. They were on their game when they wrote this one.

Love the Monty Python sketch. I laughed out loud when he pointed to the mousse.

The Seventh Seal was great too. Not nearly as slow as uninteresting as I feared!
