I waited YEARS for this to finally be reissued! One of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Loved it on Sunday Afternoon Movies as a kid, and it's lost none of the joy and laughter now that I'm "old". Lol. If you've ever heard someone say, "The pellet with the poison's in the vessel with a pestle, and the chalice from the Palace has the brew that is true." THIS is where it started - and it's absolutely hysterical to watch Giacomo and Griswold each try to remember the famous tongue twister. Watch!

One of my all time favorite movies. Danny Kaye an extrodinary talent who can act, dance and sing. To this day I laugh whole heartdly everytime I watch this movie.

If you can watch this movie without cracking up, then you need therapy. This movie is a comedy classic that the whole family can enjoy! Witty humor, brilliant swordplay, and catchy songs, it's yet to be beaten!
