Brian Cohen (Graham Chapman) is an average young Jewish man, but
through a series of ridiculous events, he gains a reputation as the
Messiah.
When he’s not dodging his followers or being scolded by his
shrill mother (Terry Jones), the hapless Brian has to contend with the
pompous Pontius Pilate (Michael Palin) and acronym-obsessed members of a
separatist movement.
Rife with Monty Python’s signature absurdity, the
tale finds Brian’s life paralleling Biblical lore, albeit with many more
laughs.
Content expanded.
Cost: $10 per ticket
Monty Python's The Meaning of Life
Monday, December 15th
9:15 p.m. to 11:02n p.m.
Director: Terry Jones
Run Time: 107 min.
Format: DCP (Digital Cinema Package)
Rating: R
Release Year:
1983
Starring: Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Michael Palin
The stages of life are told through multiple sketches and songs by
the British comedy troupe.
The seven parts of life cover birth, growing
up, war, middle age, organ transplants, old age and death.
Not all
stages are singular: “Part I: The Miracle of Birth” is from the
perspective of an ignored woman in labor, and of a Roman Catholic couple
with too many children, and “Part VII: Death” encompasses a funeral and
heaven.
Added are three unrelated skits placed in the beginning, middle
and end.
Cost: $10 per ticket
