Correspondence

Are you one of us, those who cannot resist reading someone else's old diaries, perhaps a cache of personal letters, or books of correspondence? In my recent travels I came across this gem of a blog, Letters of Note. When you have time, make it a point to search the archives.

The following is a letter describing the visit and recommendations of the British censor to an early screening of "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". Naturally, the Python team wished to have the film rated for as young an audience as possible. The censor had his job to do as well. I have no idea how this turned out, but I can guess. Mercifully, the censor was not the producer/director as well.
