The Parkway Podcast team jumps into the spring season with the religious parody ‘Monty Python’s The Life of Brian’ (1979).
A different perspective on an age-old tale, the movie follows Brian of Nazareth as he is born in the stable next door to Jesus Christ and spends his life being mistaken for a messiah. Does the film’s irreverent style of humor hold up? Banned in certain countries, is it still as controversial when viewed with a modern lens? Could this movie even be made today? The team answers these questions and more in this episode as they look to the bright side of life.
