The Life of Brian (VHS,
VHS Widescreen,
or DVD) (1979)
Starring: Monty Python Cast, et al.
Director: Terry Jones
A scathing satire of both religion and Hollywood's depiction of all
things Biblical. The setting is the Holy Land in 32 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.

investigation. When the mythical King of the Britons leads his knights

a persistent Black Knight, a three-headed giant, a cadre of shrubbery-challenged
knights, the perilous Castle Anthrax, a killer rabbit, and a handful
of rude Frenchmen.
