Monty Pythons Life of Brian

Monty Python delivers a scathing, anarchic satire of both religion and Hollywood's depiction of all things biblical with their second film. The setting is Judea 33 A.D, a time of poverty and chaos, with no shortage of messiahs, followers willing to believe in them, and exasperated Romans trying to impose some order. At the centre of it all is Brian Cohen (Graham Chapman), a reluctant would-be messiah who rises to prominence as a result of a series of absurd and truly hilarious circumstances providing ample opportunity for the entire ensemble (John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones, Michael Palin, and Chapman) to shine in multiple roles as they mock everyone and everything from ex-lepers, Pontius Pilate, and the art of haggling to crazy prophets, Roman centurions, and crucifixion.Special Features:Life of Brian Photo GalleryAn All-New Hour-Long Revelation The Story of Brian from Monty PythonAn original illustrated 110 minute recording by the Pythons of their early screenplay in progressOriginal Radio Ads by Mrs. Cleese, Mrs. Idle, Mrs. Gilliam and Michael Palin's DentistDeleted Scenes with Optional CommentaryCommentary by Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle and Terry JonesCommentary by John Cleese and Michael Palin
