Your iPad just got funnier. Monty Python: The Holy Book of Days has been released as an interactive iPad app that takes readers behind the scenes to tell the story of making the classic Terry Gilliam film The Holy Grail. A diary of sorts, the app reads like a book, chronicling the 28 day film shoot.
Like a good set of DVD bonus features, the $4.99 app was made as a companion to the blu-ray with ultra-violet release. It includes original outtakes, rehearsals, songs, sound effects, scripts, storyboards and photos from the archives of people who worked on the movie. It’s got an introduction by John Cleese, interactive maps and even behnind-the-scenes details about props and costumes.
ScrollMotion and Melcher Media created the experience.
