Rating: 5.0
Best of Danny Kaye
The pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle; the chalice from the palace has the brew that is true!Really, that's all that needs to be said to explain why exactly this movie is so wonderful. It is a classic, deemed so by the National Film Registry and every person I've ever shown it to. It is witty with dancing and extravagant sets and costumes. There are midgets and a Robin Hood character and plots with poison and it is nonstop entertainment.It is from 1956, but the humor is still PG and universally relate-able. How often can you say that about a movie?
