As a follow-up to their first true feature film,Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the comic troupe next decided to tackle a “shadow” version of the Christ story. Shot in the Middle East and produced during Margaret Thatcher’s ascendant years, the film satirized—among other matters—authoritarianism and religious zealotry. Upon its release,Monty Python’s Life of Brianwas both a critical and commercial success, and has been since hailed as one of the greatest comedies of all time. But the film also faced backlash from religious groups for its blasphemy, perceived or otherwise.
InA Book about the Film Monty Python's Life of Brian: All of the References from Assyrians to Zeffirelli,Darl Larsen identifies and examines the plethora of cultural, historical, and topical allusions in the film.In this resource, Larsen delineates virtually every allusion and reference that appears in the film—from first-century Jerusalem through 1970s Great Britain. Organized chronologically by scene, the entries in this cultural history cover literary and metaphoric allusions, symbolisms, names, peoples, and places, as well as the many social, cultural, and historical elements that populate this film.
By closely examining each scene, this book explores the Pythons’ comparisons of the Roman and British Empires and of Pilate and Margaret Thatcher. In addition, Larsen helps to situateLife of Brianin the “Jesus” re-examination of the postwar period, while also taking a close look at the terror groups of first-century Judea and the modern world.A Book about the Film Monty Python's Life of Brianwill appeal to scholars of history, film, British culture, and pop culture, as well as to the many fans of this iconic group.
