Sorry this one took so long! All the incredibly FAMOUS scenes kept getting copyright claimed! My editor is such a trooper & I am so grateful! This one took 8 re-edits! I hope you enjoy & remember...... "ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIIIIIGHT SIDE OF LIFE! DOO-DOO, DOO-DOO... DOO-DOO, DOO-DOO, DOO-DOO"

Life of Brian was the most profitable Monty Python movie. The church was so vocally opposed to the movie that the producers didn't have to spend any money on advertising.
-
Palin's face during the Biggus Dickus scene always gets me. He just has that "Im in complete control and there's nothing you can do about it" glint in his eye
-
When Americans get pissed, they get angry. When Brits (and colonials) get pissed, they get drunk.
-
My favorite line has to be: "Your all individuals!" "yes, we're all individuals! " " I'm not" 😂 This one guy is a Paradoxon in itself by proclaiming himself as the only one not to be an individual, which makes him the most individual of all the people there xD
-
Fun Fact:- The guy in the crowd who was left alone then walked off set when they all ran after Brian. That was Spike Milligan who wrote and starred in the Goon Show, a long running radio comedy. That was the show that was the main influence for the Monty Python guys. He was also in The Holy Grail. He was the guy in the witch burning scene with shaving foam on his face.
-
Just to make the song a little bittersweet to you: When Graham Chapman died in 1989 (at the way too young age of 48), his funeral concluded with everyone singing "Always Look At The Bright Side Of Life".
-
Halfway through: "there's a bright side to everything" What a great foreshadowing of the end LOL
-
One of my favourite stories about British Humour is that when HMS Sheffield was sunk in 1982 and her crew had to abandon ship into the South Atlantic they reportedly passed the time waiting to be rescued by singing "Always look on the bright side of life" with extra emphasis on the "worse things happen at sea you know" line.
-
The "Loretta" bit, and Eric Idle trying to not crack, is just gold.
-
When each of the crucified yelled "I'M BRIAN", is a parody of the famous scene from Spartacus starring Kirk Douglas.
-
In high school, my Latin teacher used the "Romans Go Home" scene to teach about proper conjugations and such. First time I ever watched Life of Brian! Funniest thing ever to me as a Freshman!
-
Meaning of Life = A bunch of comedy skits tied together with an overarching theme. Holy Grail = A bunch of comedy skits that come together to form a simple story/plot. Life of Brian = A complete story/plot with a few comedy skits sprinkled in.
-
There's also a movie called "And now for something completely Different" which is just a compilation of the best sketches from the tv show. Its a good way to get an overview of tv show without having watch them all, definitely worth seeing.
-
"- You are all individuals! - I'm not." 😄
-
The actor portraying Jesus Christ in the first scene is Ken Colley, who played Darth Vader's military commander Admiral Piett in the Star Wars films The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.
-
"He's not the Messiah. He's just a very naughty boy!" Classic line and one of the most quoted lines the Monty Python troupe ever said. Also, the part on the crosses where they are all saying they are Brian is a throwback to Spartacus starring Kirk Douglas
-
Order of greatness: 1. Life of Brian 2. Holy Grail 3. Meaning of Life
-
John Cleese was an actual latin professor in university for 2 years. That scene is a precise depiction on how a pain in the ass latin classes used to be in highschool in some europeans countries. So cleverly done.
-
The "Biggus Dickus" scene had me doubled up in uncontrollable cry laughing the last time I rewatched this movie a few years back. The guards desperately trying not to laugh just make me laugh even more on their behalf! 🤣 Who needs the original song ending when we can have the beautiful dulcet tones of Miranda singing us out! Perfect! 👌🫠 Thanks for another wonderful movie reaction, Miranda! 😊
