Jailed for his reckless driving, rambunctious Mr. Toad has to escape from prison when his beloved Toad Hall comes under threat from the wily weasels, who plan to build a dog food factory on the very meadow sold to them by Toad himself.
Acting
Terry Jones commits absolutely unhinged energy as Toad.
Practical Effects
Incredible animal costumes—Toad's eyes are pure nightmare-fuel genius.
Writing
Courtroom scene is vintage Python absurdity, perfectly staged.

Director
Terry Jones
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Terry Jones wrote, directed, AND starred as Toad after being replaced as director of the 1983 animated version.
This was the last major project featuring four Python members together—Eric Idle's Rat is criminally underappreciated.
