[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Monty Python’s Life of Brian, a religious satire about a young Jewish Roman man Brian Cohen who is born the same day, and next door to Jesus. Brian grows into an idealistic young man, and becomes infatuated with a young rebel Judith when listening to Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. In his attempts to woo Judith, he joins the political activist group, the Judean Peoples Front, which are more like squabbling siblings. When escaping the Romans, he starts preaching and is subsequently mistaken for the Messiah. At one point the reluctant messiah is preaching “think for yourselves” and the crowd parrot it back in robotic fashion. He is recaptured by the Romans and sentenced to crucifixion. The movie ends with Brian almost escaping crucification after a crack suicide squad from the Judean Peoples’ Front charges and forces the Roman soldiers to flee. However the suicide squad performs mass suicide as a form of political protest. Condemned to a slow and painful death, Brian’s spirits are lifted by his fellow sufferers singing “Always look on the bright side of life”. It is a hilarious diss on both Toxic positivity and mindless forms of religious practice.

I’m relatively religious but enjoyed the parody of my religion … MONTY PYTHON were geniuses at expressing that much of life is absurd in really funny ways.[/quote]
