Filmdation, Friday 28th May 2010

The May Filmdation is on Friday 28th May!

The film choice was Monty Python’s Life Of Brian and was chosen by Simon Taylor.

In Simon’s words…

The Life of Brian is, for me, the best of all the life of Jesus films largely because it is very careful to distinguish Brian and Jesus.  Controversial in its day, now only Christians get the jokes, but they are good jokes.  The most coherent Python film, and the more history/theology you know the funnier it is.  Come and enjoy a great opportunity to laugh at ourselves, to find the source of at least five of my sermons, and to look on the bright side of life.
