Monty Python’s delirious send-up of the New Testament is an enduring cult classic that is frequently argued to be the funniest film ever made.
The story follows poor Brian Cohen (Chapman), a Jewish anti-Roman activist mistaken for the Messiah through a series of unfortunate coincidences (he was, for example, born in the manger next door to that more famous stable) and near-constant misunderstandings and exaggerations by his growing band of clueless followers.
LIFE OF BRIAN is Monty Python’s achingly funny take on religious belief in general, Roman history, and the muddled and uncertain origins of what is claimed to be gospel truth — all wrapped up in a parody of bloated Biblical epics.
