In 1979, Monty Python’s Life of Brian became one of the most controversial films ever to be released in British cinemas, causing outrage amongst religious groups, members of the public and politicians, most of whom hadn’t even seen the film.
Out now on DVD from FremantleMedia Enterprises, the comedy-drama Holy Flying Circus delivers a witty homage to the Pythons and the film that, today, has become accepted as one of the greatest comedy movies of all time.
To celebrate, we’ve got copies of the DVD to give away to two of our Twitter followers!
