📖 Synopsis
What if you're born in the manger next to Jesus and are mistaken for the Messiah? Well, your life is going to turn into a complete mess, and that's what happens to Brian, a ordinary Jew who just wants to live in peace, but fate (and a few zealots) have other plans for him.
✍️ Our review
9.5/10
★★★★★
This film is not just a classic, it's a kick in the face to orthodoxy, human stupidity, and anyone who takes life too seriously. The Monty Python team created a masterpiece of political incorrectness that remains as hilarious and necessary today as it was forty years ago. It will make you laugh until your jaw hurts, and probably make you think a bit too.

" Always look on the bright side of life.
" I'm not the Messiah!
" Blessed are the cheesemakers!

🎬 Behind the scenes
🎯
The film was banned in several countries (Ireland and Norway, for example) for blasphemy, which, obviously, only served to give it more publicity.
🎯
George Harrison, the ex-Beatle, mortgaged his house to finance the film when EMI Films withdrew its support.
🎯
He said he just wanted to see it, that's all.
🎯
John Cleese's monologue as the centurion correcting Brian's Latin is an improvisation that occurred to him at the moment of filming.
