Overview

Not The Messiah (He's a Very Naughty Boy) is a comic oratorio based on Monty Python's Life of Brian, which retells the tragic tale of Mandy, impregnated by a Roman soldier, giving birth to Brian, a reluctant revolutionary of the People's Front of Judea who falls in love with Judith, gets mistaken for a Messiah and is arrested by the Romans and sentenced to be crucified. It ranges in reference from Handel, through a naughty Mozart duet, to the Festival of Nine Carols, Bob Dylan, and the classic finale "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life".

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gleefully blasphemous musical romp that transforms Monty Python's satirical classic into a full comic oratorio, stuffed with clever parodies of classical and popular music. It's like watching a rock concert for a film you already love, if you're prepared to laugh at sacred cows.
