Details: Amid the filth and muck of England in the Dark Ages, a fearsome dragon stalks the land, casting a shadow of terror upon the kingdom of Bruno the Questionable. Who should emerge as the town's only possible savior but Dennis Cooper (Michael Palin), an endearingly witless bumpkin who stumbles onto the scene and is flung into the role of brave knight? Terry Gilliam's first outing as a solo director inspired by Lewis Carroll s poem 'Jabberwocky' and made on the heels of Gilliam s success as a member of the iconic comedy troupe Monty Python showcases his delight in comic nonsense, with a cast chock-full of beloved British character actors. A giddy romp through blood and excrement, this fantasy remains one of the filmmaker's most uproarious visions of society run amok.brbrDIRECTOR-APPROVED BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESbr- New 4K digital transfer from a restoration by the BFI National Archive and The Film Foundation, approved by director Terry Gilliambr- 5.1 surround mix, supervised by Gilliam and presented in DTS-HD Master Audio br- Audio commentary from 2001 featuring Gilliam and actor Michael Palinbr- New documentary on the making of the film, featuring Gilliam, producer Sandy Lieberson, Palin, and actor Annette Badlandbr- New interview with Valerie Charlton, designer of the Jabberwock, featuring her collection of rare behind-the-scenes photographsbr- Selection of Gilliam s storyboards and sketches br- Trailerbr- PLUS: An essay by critic Scott Tobias
