Aimed at making Monty Python more widely known outside the UK, and mainly in the US market, And Now for Something Completely Different is a selection of the group's favourite sketches. Reshot by Ian MacNaughton, this film has now become rare and marks the birth of Monty Python on the big screen. In France it was released in 1974 under the title Pataquesse and went unnoticed. It was however a summit meeting between French and British humour as Marcel Gottlieb, author of Rubrique-à-brac, designed the poster.
