Making a Power Point Presentation on Fencing

I'm doing a Power Point presentation on the history of fencing and I was wondering if anyone knew of any site where I could get some good video clips of fencing, or anything like that.
Also, kind of off the subject but not really, I'm also looking for a clip of the Black Knight fight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Namely the part where the first arm was chopped off, but I'll take the whole scene also if it's available. Whatever you guys can find.
Thanks.

Leon Paul.com has some good fencing videos that discuss what each weapon is about while showing fencers using the weapons. Just give them credit

The USFA actually has a promotional video (pre-Olympics) which has a fair amount of fencing and some interviews. Including Mariel telling the interviewer that her goal is to win the gold.
