Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979 Terry Jones)

Or, 'Brian of Nazareth' as it was also known between the script-writing committee. This is probably their most cohesive film, taking pot shots at all sorts of things along the way, not just religion (unions, celebrity). Terry Jones does another of his great women, Eric Idle plays the cheery chappie beautifully, JC makes for a school-teachery centurion (the graffiti spelling lesson his own great idea), Gilliam always wonderful as a grotesque, Chapman steady as Brian, but Palin steals the show with several diverse characters of which the funniest is Pontius Pilate. With Kenneth Colley, Carol Cleveland, Sue Jones-Davies, Chris Langham, Spike Milligan.

Funny scene with John Young

Shot by Peter Biziou in Tunisia.

I think Fellini would have liked the ending.
