Not the Messiah: He's a Very Naughty Boy

Year: 2010

Actors: Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Michael Palin

Duration: 92 min

This movie is a comic oratorio based on Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979), which retells the tragic tale of Mandy, impregnated by a Roman soldier, giving birth to Brian, a reluctant revolutionary of the People's Front of Judea who falls in love with Judith, gets mistaken for a Messiah, and is arrested by the Romans and sentenced to be crucified. It ranges in reference from Handel, through a naughty Mozart duet, to the Festival of Nine Carols, Bob Dylan, and the classic finale "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life."
