This magnificent slice of humor is from one of the
funniest movies ever made, Monty Python’s 1979
masterpiece The Life of Brian.
To call it a classic would be understating it.
Palin as the respectful jailer is superb.
Idle, speech impediment and all, is wonderful.
Chapman plays a hapless Brian quite well.
Gilliam as the grotesque assistant to the jailer is
a sight to behold, as good as everyone else is in
this scene his character kills it big time.
George Harrison financed the flick and rumor
has it he’s in this part of the movie as an extra.
I think he’s just before Brian’s check in.
Follow it all the way to the end, great stuff…
