All 6 members of Python consider if the greatest of their 4 films and 99.9% of everyone has seen all 4 movies call it the greatest. I don't know anyone who has seen all 4 films in their work to not call Brian the best other than a select few.

It's their only film worthy of criterion!

The most famous moment out of all the python films:

Brian's mother: What star sign is he?
Wise Man #2: Capricorn.
Brian's mother: Capricorn, eh? What are they like?
Wise Man #2: He is the son of God, our Messiah.
Wise Man #1: King of the Jews.
Brian's mother: And that's Capricorn, is it?
Wise Man #3: No, no, that's just him.
Brian's mother: Oh, I was going to say, otherwise there'd be a lot of them.

no. The pythons have all said in the big autobiography they wrote a few years ago that the Holy Grail obsession in America is absurd and stupid. They said Europe is "smart" enough to realize Life of Brian was their best work.  :lol

Generally I would think its considered even amongst holy grail fans here in America that their television series was their height and their best work. TVC will back me up on that!


I LOVE Holy Grail but my biggest pet peeve in all of moviedom is people who worship it yet ignore their other 3 films. Sooo many people I talk to who bring it up never saw the other 3.  :-\

I was just reusing Whiteacid's topic title!

It is a reaction of mine whenever someone mentions Holy Grail I must ramble about Brian.

Yeah, LoB is certainly better than Holy Grail.  Holy Grail is like the movie the great nerd unwashed favorite.  It's still a funny movie, but Life of Brian is soooo much better.

I've been watching old bbc Monty Python tv on PBS lately that stuff is hilarious I tell you. But its a shame I've never sat through one of their movies all the way through.
