|
|
Just watched Channel 4’s ‘Top 50 Comedy films of all time’ (as voted by the British public). Totally had to agree with the number 1 choice Monty Python’s ‘The Life of Brian’ Well a head of its time and still so funny!!
Set Two thousand years ago at the birth of Jesus but by a freak mistake the 3 wise men accidentally turn up at the wrong stable and the wrong birth. Set in a time where women had no rights, and and Christianity along with blasphemy was illegal (mentioning ‘thee’ lords name in vain). When the Romans ruled most of the know world, controlling it with fear from public executions, stoning and crucifixion.
Around the age of 20, Brian (the son of a whore) has no real job, girlfriend or direction in his life, then all gets worse when again he is wrongly mistaken for the son of God (as you do)
2000 years ago, like the Gladiators, public executions & torture where social events like football matches today

I remember watching it first time round - I do agree it's funny as I love Monty Python - but I would usually put Holy Grail ahead of it. But glad a Python film was top _________________
