Last week, cinema audiences celebrated the return of Monty Python’s Life of Brian to the big screen to mark the film’s 40^th Anniversary. Presented in glorious standard definition and mono-sound, Monty Python delivered a scathing, anarchic satire of both religion and Hollywood’s depiction of all things biblical with their 1979 feature film Life of Brian.

Highly controversial upon its original release and banned in several countries, the film is now frequently ranked as the greatest comedy feature of all time by magazines and media outlets around the world.  As Monty Python member Terry Gilliam says, “It rips bare and makes you laugh at the world we’ve created for ourselves.”

To celebrate the occasion, Trafalgar Releasing organised a special “In Conversation” event with Michael Palin and Terry Gilliam, which was hosted by David Baddiel live from Picturehouse Central in London.
