Episode 39- Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979) Part 1 of 2
What more is there to say about Monty Python’s Life ofBrian? Well, we may as well give it a bash.   Luke Thompson takes on hosting duties for a swapcast between Film Gold and Luke’s English Podcast, originally recorded on video earlier this year (see below).   In this first part, Luke & Antony discuss among otherthings their histories with the film, the basic philosophy of the Python team regarding biblical epics, some of the original inspiration for the film, and its production and financing.   Fans of the film will know that in that final aspect, acertain Beatle may well get a mention…   Part 2 will follow in early December   Enjoy!   'Film Gold' is on all the main podcast platforms.   Feedback to contrafib2001@gmail.com   Facebook https://www.facebook.com/filmgoldpod   Twitter https://twitter.com/FilmGold75   Antony's website (blog, music, podcasts) https://www.antonyrotunno.com   Antony’s John Lennon/Beatles and Psychology/Alt.
