MONTY PYTHON THE MEANING OF LIFE MOVIE REACTION | 0:00 - 30:47
MONTY PYTHON THE MEANING OF LIFE MOVIE REVIEW | 30:48 - 34:25
Monty Python The Meaning Of Life Movie Description:
The stages of life are told through multiple sketches and songs by the British comedy troupe. The seven parts of life cover birth, growing up, war, middle age, organ transplants, old age and death. Not all stages are singular: "Part I: The Miracle of Birth" is from the perspective of an ignored woman in labor, and of a Roman Catholic couple with too many children, and "Part VII: Death" encompasses a funeral and heaven. Added are three unrelated skits placed in the beginning, middle and end.
Monty Python's The Meaning of Life, also known simply as The Meaning of Life, is a 1983 British musical sketch comedy film written and performed by the Monty Python troupe, directed by Terry Jones. The Meaning of Life was the last feature film to star all six Python members before the death of Graham Chapman in 1989.
Unlike Holy Grail and Life of Brian, the film's two predecessors, which each told a single, more-or-less coherent story, The Meaning of Life returned to the sketch format of the troupe's original television series and their first film from twelve years earlier, And Now for Something Completely Different, loosely structured as a series of comic sketches about the various stages of life. It was accompanied by the short film The Crimson Permanent Assurance.
Released on 23 June 1983 in the United Kingdom, The Meaning of Life, was not as acclaimed as its predecessors, but was still well received critically and was a minor box office success; the film grossed almost $15 million against a $9 million budget. It was screened at the 1983 Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Grand Prix. The film appears in a 2010 list of the top 20 cult films published by The Boston Globe.

Hey Mellverse, I've been having a great time watching your reactions. You're helarious and seem like a really cool guy. I just wanted to make a short list of movies I'd like to see your reaction to, though I'm sure you have a long enough list already so I'll keep it short 😄 Jim Henson's Labyrinth (feat. David Bowie) Stanly Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut (feat. Tom Cruise) And if you ever jump on the anime train try Studio Giblis stuff. Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, or Castle in the Sky are great ones. It'll drag in a bundle of views too I'm sure 😉 Boy and the Beast or Summer Wars are really cool ones too. I was also wondering what you think you may move to after you watch everything. Do you think you're inspired to write your own movie or anything?

[@danielflynn9141]

The Crimson Permanent Assurance is my favorite short film ever. It used to be a thing for short films to accompany a feature film, and I love that they resurrected that here. Terry Gilliam, the animator and only American of the gang, was given the job of directing this short film, and he went WAY overboard on it, but I love it. The main feature was directed by Terry Jones, who later admitted that his character should have been the main focus of the film, with each stage of life featuring his character's evolution from a baby to an old man. It would have been a better narrative, but this film was still a pretty big success. It was the runner up at the Cannes Film Festival, at a time when critics must have been seriously bored. My favorite Monty Python sketch of ALL TIME is the Protestant couple from this film. It's the most perfect sketch they ever wrote.

[@Torthrodhel]

Yeah it's so good isn't it? My favourite part of all of their films by far, as you say it's how "overboard" he went with it. I really like the reason given for the death row guy's execution as well. :)

[@SuddenReal]

So, about the featurette... Terry Gilliam had convinced the others to do a short film before the film and they just left him at his own devices. After some time, they realised he was still at it and went up to check on him. Imagine their surprise when they saw the sets and how a ten minute thing had doubled in time, went completely over budget (something Gilliam still struggles with) and had better effects than the actual movie. To save the thing, they just incorporated it into the actual movie.

"The Crimson Permanent Assurance" was written and directed by the sole American Python, Terry Gilliam. He did the animations in the TV show and other Python films.

"One: People aren’t wearing enough hats. Two: Matter is energy. In the universe there are many energy fields which we cannot normally perceive. Some energies have a spiritual source which act upon a person’s soul. However, this “soul” does not exist ab initio as orthodox Christianity teaches; it has to be brought into existence by a process of guided self-observation. However, this is rarely achieved owing to man’s unique ability to be distracted from spiritual matters by everyday trivia."

I saw this in the theaters in 83 when I was a freshman in highschool. My best friend, my younger sister and her friend went together to see it. I don't remember how we got tickets for an "R" rated movie as my mom dropped us off at the theater. Guessing she bought the tickets and left. We all loved it then as we watched all the Python movies and TV shows up to that time. Me and my best friend had a tape recording of the Holy Grail from which I had typed up the entire script up from so we could memorize it and then recite as we walked the halls at school. We weren't popular. LOL

[@DanJackson1977]

The opening bit is a short film by Terry Gilliam. The only American Python.. and a visual genius director (ob the level of Kubrick).. he co directed Holy Grail, and went on to have a brilliant directing career, making classics like "Brazil", "12 Monkeys", "Time Bandits", and "The Adventures of Baron Munchhausen". If you like Python you'll love his movies.

I love this movie more than Life Of Brian. Holy Grail is probably my favourite but all three are genius.

[@alanbeaumont4848]

This is kind of Python's Abbey Road; each piece put together by different teams and not really a group effort until the performance - and at times it shows. The Galaxy Song is the stand out for me because the science is pretty accurate and it's a great song. The Sergeant Major marching up and down sketch is doubly funny for us here, because Michael Palin is widely considered the nicest man in Britain, which is probably why everyone else gets to leave. Apparently while they were filming the death sketch John Cleese visited a local pub in the full costume, but the number of heart failures this caused is unknown.

Now that you've seen the Monty Python films, you need to check out Terry Gilliam's films. He's the American Monty Python member. He was the guy with the coconuts in the Holy Grail and the American at the dinner that pissed off Death in The Meaning of Life. He is also the group's animator. (All the cartoons you've seen in these movies? That's him.) He is also a well known indie director with Brazil, Time Bandits and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen being his most popular movies. All three of those movies are super creative. Though I think you would like Time Bandits the most followed by The Adventures of Baron Munchausen next and finally Brazil.

And Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (with Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro) and The Fisher King (with Robin Williams and Jeff Bridges).

[@Spindler2007]

Meaning of Life has always been one of my favourites. What makes this movie different from Holy Grail and Life of Brian (which both had a single, coherent storyline) is that it's done in a sketch comedy format much like the Monty Python's Flying Circus tv show. FUN FACT: The actress who played the teacher's wife during the sex education class segment is Patricia Quinn who played Magenta in The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Another FUN FACT: The restaurant segment in The Autumn Years was actually filmed in a warehouse with no air-conditioning. The smell from the fake vomit was so bad as it was dairy-based that went bad after a few days along with what happens in the segment actually caused some of the extras to vomit which can be seen in the movie

_Monty Python and the Holy Grail_ is the holy grail of Monty Python films, I think everyone can agree to that.

[@stanmann356]

This movie is more like an extended version of one of their TV shows. The show's format was always a bunch of short sketches, mostly unrelated. In fact one of the most used transition gags was for Cleese in the guise of a TV announcer to pop up at the end of a skit and say, "...And now for something completely different..." before they transitioned to something totally unrelated and crazy different. This was kind of the same, but with a loose theme tying the skits together. You show check out some of their TV episodes to get an idea of their origins.

[@jacksparrowismydaddy]

the beginning of this movie is the greatest corporate takeover I've ever seen.

[@EdSigma]

The reason for the short at the beginning was that Terry Gilliam wanted to direct a bit himself, so that was just going to be a sketch within the main film, but being Terry Gilliam, it got a bit out of hand, became this sprawling big thing. So they decided to make it the supporting feature, as the days of there being shorts before the main film were dying out about then. It works quite well I think, as it's like the main film's warm-up act, it gets you in the right mood for the main event.

Absolute heresy! This is the most hilarious of their series of movies. It doesn't just have the absurdity but a wide range of character change and witty humor. The best!

What do you mean "If this building starts moving?" They weighed the anchor, of course its gonna start moving.

The most fun thing about this movie is watching others get confused and grossed out.

Don't know if this is true, but I heard the extra soldiers in the square were actual soldiers. You can see one or two of them trying not to laugh at the hilarious impression of a typical drill sergeant.

Hell yeah man this was my favorite Monty python as a kid cause of how out of left field and wacky everything is

[@bearadactyl9998]

Love you btw ❤️ It's the Meaning of Life! There is a deeper meaning to this Film

[@huber7777]

After Mr Creosote explodes, there are extras in the background that can be seen throwing up. They were throwing up for real, because the fake vomit they used smelled so bad.

This is actually my favourite Monty Python film.

Meaning of life was an odd film. Seeing you confused after the short film credits was funny

[@JO-kp6lk]

I have always said about this film that I would have been grossly offended if I hadn't been laughing so hard. They deliberately break every social taboo imaginable. My favorite of their movies? Same as yours. The Holy Grail !

Apparently the Mr Creosote sketch made QUENTIN TARANTINO sick.
