Foolish Nic Cage. We all know it's nestled at the Canyon of the Crescent Moon in Alexandretta anyway.
TEXT:
The most sought-after Christian relic in popular culture, the Holy Grail is commonly identified as the cup Jesus drank from at the Last Supper. From medieval knights to Indiana Jones, hundreds of people have devoted research and efforts into finding the miraculous relic, without avail. According to EW, Cage attempted his own quest to uncover the location of the Holy Grail. After fixating on mythology, Cage developed an obsession for the grail and compares his quest to that of curating a library. Cage spoke of his adventure:
There was the time when I almost went on- you might call it a grail quest. I started following mythology, and I was finding properties that aligned with that. It was almost like National Treasure. Of course, that didn’t sustain. You read a book, and in it there’s a reference to another book, and then you buy that book, and then you attach the references. For me it was all about where was the grail? Was it here? Was it there? Is it at Glastonbury? Does it exist?
According to legends, the Chalice Well at Glastonbury is believed to be the location of the Holy Grail. The spring that flows through the well is reddish, tastes of iron, and has been speculated as resembling blood. Apparently, Cage made the trek to Glastonbury, Rhode Island, and other places across the States, but returned home void of the Holy Grail. Cage concluded of his quest, “What I ultimately found is: What is the Grail but Earth itself? The divine object is Earth.”
