In class we watched Monty Pythons Life of Brian and had to decide wheather or not we found it shocking personally or if anyone else would.
What ways can "Life of Brian" be viewed as a shocking text?
Bringing religion and cultures into a movie is a very risky business as people do care deeply about what they believe in. The film it self does not actually laugh in the face of religion or christianity which is true and you notice this if you watch the film. But for people who are strongly religious they would argue to the end that this is laughing about Jesus Christ.
Does it shock you?
No not at all. This is only because i am totally not religious at all! I'm not against religion but i believe part of the meaning of the film is true. I understand what they are trying to say in the film and i think they have made a great and comical movie out of it!
