      "yellow submarine" spaceship 😂 George Harrison of the Beatles is actually in the Crowded House scene, just as Brian is trying to leave you can see George and hear his distinctive Liverpool accent 😂
      George played a major role in funding the entire film.
      Pink Floyd also helped fund Monty Python with Nick Mason (Pink Floyds drummer) used one of his very rare Ferrari Cars as collateral 😉

      You think this is funny do you? Bet you didn't know the historical Jewish uprising against Rome that lead to the destruction of Jerusalem and the Jews being scattered throughout Europe, all started with a single Roman centurion in Jerusalem mooning a Jew - showing is naked @ss to a Jew as a childish prank insult. That was the last straw for the Jews and events spiraled from there and eventually leading to the events of 70 CE.

    Fun fact for our friends Coy and Tara, George Harrison (yes, the Beatle) re-mortgaged his home to fund this movie, he liked the Monthy Pythons so much.
    And iirc, the film cost around 4M and made 20 at the box office. So we can thank the Beatle(s) for this Monthy Python movie.

    Classic. Thanks for the reaction. Thankfully my dad showed me Monty Python early in my life. These movies and sketches never get old. Some fun facts: George Harrison, the former member of the Beatles and a long-time Python fan, arranged financing for Life of Brian through the formation of his HandMade Films company. And why does a lot in the movie look so good and accurate? The film was shot on location in Monastir, Tunisia, which allowed the production to reuse sets from Franco Zeffirelli's Jesus of Nazareth (1977).

    Fun fact about the Biggus Dickus sketch. The extras dressed as the Roman Centurions were not told what would happen in the scene. They were only told that if they laughed, they would be fired. So all the reactions of them holding in their laughter was a real response.

      The scene was shot multiple times throughout the day, and the soldiers are all played by comedy actors who knew the team. It was changed up to keep it fresh, and he was trying to get them laughing so that they had genuine laughs to hold back as it made it look more genuine - but it was planned and roughly scripted with the laughing being part of it. There was no threat not to pay them, and those are not just extras - that's just an internet myth.

    The space ship was a reference to the book Chariot of the Gods and the theory of Ancient Aliens. The book was first published in 1968 but didn't gain popularity until the mid 70s. This was the first time someone challenged the interpretation of acient artifacts and instead suggested that aliens may have interacted with humans in the past.

    • @willcool713
      @willcool713 Před 5 měsíci

      No, it was very sharp, absurdist commentary on Star Wars mania, which was shoehorned into ridiculous places everywhere. In addition, Van Daniken had been exposed as a literal fraud in a big deal, in '75, I believe -- he wrote Chariot of the Gods when he was in prison for fraud, and used pictures cut out from other books that were out of scale and clipped to meet his narratives. There was a big kerfuffle that he wasn't put back in prison, and a bunch of people tried to sue, but he beat it all. Nobody really took him seriously again until there was a revival in interest, in the mid '90's, I think.

    My Dad took me and my sister to see this in the theatre back in 79. Mum refused to come along cos I was 9 and my sister was 11. Guess she didn't want a police record. Anyway, at the start of the movie, there was a short film on Venice. Turned out to be a Monty Python mockumentory. In the short, John Cleese says "Oh Christ, more fucking gondollas", to which my sister shouted at the top of her voice "HEY DAD, HE JUST SAID FUCK". Thete was a second of silence, then laughter like you've never heard. When the movie over, all you could hear was people talking about the little girl who said fuck. What a great way to become a Python fan.

    Terry Jones of the "Python" team is a published Historian, so the historical elements will be grounded in an understanding of the times. Most of British Pythons met at Cambridge University. As they drifted into TV and films they eventually became the masters of the absurd. Lampooning all things Human or societal throughout their careers, or using them as a vehicle for amusement. The films too are all rooted in human truths made absurd. Like most good comedy. A mix of light and dark. As for this film it was banned in many Religious countries, and heated TV debates took place between religious figures and the Python team. I thought the commentary on gender issues was way ahead of it's time. I was lucky enough to see their first movie "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" in the Theatre. I was laughing progressively harder at the scenes, so hard I had to go twice as I missed the end because of it. That film is rooted in the Arthurian myth from medieval England. As for a love of dark humour, then "Death Becomes Her" Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn, and Bruce Willis, which I also saw in Theatre, might appeal, or the gangster movie, "Killing Them Softly". which is also well cast, with Brad Pitt, James Gandolfini, and Ray Liotta, and plays like a dark comedy. Two of the Pythons appear in the film "A Fish Called Wanda". John Cleese and Michael Palin, along with Kevin Kline and Jamie Lee Curtis. All are worth a watch. I'm sure you'll research. So fun to watch the watchers. Happy Holidays to you both, family and friends. Have fun and be well.

  • @ChrisRowe

    The most amazing thing is that despite this being a low budget comedy, it is surprisingly accurate and clever in ways most people wouldn’t realise. Speaking as a former archaeologist who specialised in the ancient Near East and the history of religion, I can confirm 1st century Jerusalem was indeed full of people claiming to be the messiah, as well as many different dissident groups resisting against the romans but also opposing each other, and possibly the most obscure reference of all is when Brian’s mum says his real father was a Roman soldier. Because in both the Talmud and very early texts about Christianity in the second century (specifically Celsus), Jesus is said to have actually been fathered by a Roman legionary called Pantera. Whats particularly intriguing about this is in the 1930s, archaeologists found a grave in Germany for a Roman soldier called Tiberius Abdes Pantera, who, although having died in Germany was originally from Syria, and was posted in Judea at exactly the time Jesus is said to have been born. Probably a coincidence, but an intriguing one!

    That final song, Always look on the bright side of live, by Eric Idol is actually the 2nd most played song at British funerals. Not the wakes. The actual funeral!

    Star Wars came out a couple of years before this, and sci-fi suddenly became super popular. So the spaceship that saves Brian and drops him off at the foot of the tower he fell from, is just because space stuff was "in" late 70's, that's all. Plus the "You lucky bastard..." line from the bystander who witnesses the spaceship crash is funny as hell.

    For me it was the comedy that kept on giving as I first saw it when I was about 8.
    When I got older suddenly the smarter jokes and satire made sense.
    Still my favourite comedy and a must watch for every new generation especially Brian's speech to his followers in terms of the best life philosophy to have

    Monty Python and The Holy Grail.... Just remember the actors are running around in England making a film. So whilst the film is set in the middle ages, it also exists in the 70's as a film crew and actors 😉

    The jokes about the feuding protest groups harks back to the '60s and early '70s, when political awareness was high and everyone seemed to be promoting some reform or other. Schisms among reform organizations happened all the time.

    This is the Life Of Brian reaction I've always wanted to see! You really got it, you got so much of it! It's all based on historic religious absurdities. Splitting into denominations and factions. You say "Jehovah" you get punished. You got it! You even cited Yellow Submarine! You highlighted so many of my favorite lines that many reactors miss. Loved it. Python is so dense, and one second it's cerebral & witty, next it's silly.....it's almost exhausting, it's so packed with humor, some stuff comes off, some doesn't.....they just throw it all to the wall......but they really reward rewatching over and over again, I'm always noticing stuff I didn't get the first fifty times. Definitely check out their previous movie, Holy Grail. Their TV show was great as well, that's where they started. The animation on their TV show is VERY "Yellow Submarine".

    When you say that this movie would not fly today, it may be good to remember that this movie was banned just after it was made for a long time. The ban was lifted after a lot of public debate, and it is hard to know what damage banning it may have done for the status of christianity in western Europe today. The ban gave the silly, but sharp, movie a sense of importance that it may not have got to the same degree without a ban.
    It would be a stretch to say the movie is about ancient times, but it is rather about modern society and to some degree about how we project our imagination about the past through the lens of modern society. Anyways, the main point I wanted to address that it is a mistake to think that the content of this movie was main stream at the time it was made, when it really was upsetting to a lot of people.

    the elaborate sets were made for the very expensive and very popular Jesus of Nazareth TV mini-series (Franco Zeffirelli, 1977), they happened to be still available and Monty Python took the opportunity to repurpose them for their own needs.

    Fun fact, in the latin variant that the romans spoke (as opposed to ecclesiastical latin), caesar is pronounced like "kai-sar". Kaiser (as in kaiser wilhelm ii) is from caesar. And tsar comes from that too
