And Now for Something Completely Different is a 1971 British comedy film that consists of sketch comedy skits from the first two seasons of Monty Python's Flying Circus. The film features some of the most iconic and memorable skits from the TV series, such as the Dead Parrot sketch, the Ministry of Silly Walks, and the Lumberjack Song. The sketches are presented in a slightly reworked format with new introductions and linking material. The film also features new animations by Terry Gilliam and a cameo appearance by John Cleese as a military figure. The film was directed by Ian MacNaughton and was intended to introduce Monty Python to a wider audience outside the UK.
