They really should have kept this scene. It's controversial but that's precisely the reason why its so relevant. That being said I found this particular take to be quite rough acting-wise and if they were going to keep it they would have needed to do it over to maximize its potential.
Could be because I never get tired of Eric Idle, but, looking at the various deleted scenes from their movies, I have the feeling that they often cut good scenes featuring Eric. Especially in the Meaning of Life (many of the deleted scenes have Eric in them and I thought they were all good, or even very good). This one is obviously highly controversial, and I agree that it is a bit too long, it would have needed a little re-writing, but I find it as funny as many other scenes that were included.
What idiot cut this. These scene cut is relict for religious hypocrisy which made to society and "watchdogs". These are not offending these scenes are funny.
Didn't really laugh much with this. I wasn't offended, but I didn't find it funny. Felt like they were trying too hard. Song they did while marching was good, though.
Terry Gilliam's a genius for designing that simple but effective Judean People's Front logo. It encapsulates the entire political statement of the Otto sequence. I suppose it's up for debate whether the ultimate reason for the scene's removal is pacing and comedy quality, or just self censorship. I say it was worth including, although I do recognise the level of controversy could've overwhelmed the discourse, resulting in narrower distribution, and distracted from all the film's other qualities.
@PurushaDesa It was the entire Python team who decided to cut the Otto stuff. I've just finished 'Michael Palin diaries 1969 - 1979 - The Python Years'. Well worth buying, great book.
The details of how this scene got cut is revealed in the new book 'Life of (Brian) Jesus' written by the films editor. Available from Python's 'deadparrotshop' or Amazon.
I don't think this should've made the final cut, it wouldn't have been too popular with Jews or touchy people, but I'm glad people who can ignore the political correctness can come here and watch it because it's very funny.
I understand your comments but I think it was still funny enough to trump the PC angle. And any scene in which Spike Milligan ever appears must surely have some merit!
Difficult; though the crack suicide squad attack at the end of the crucifixion is legend; I am not sure about this one; and this not only because I cannot endure the English trying the make the Germans look ridiculous but due to their overdoing of the scene; but if they had the Nazi allusions turned down a lot, leaving nothing than rants about Jewish purity and stop unveiling the suicide squad joke but make the JPF as a dark and powerful menace the ending would be a lot funnier.
Am reading Palin's diary and he mentions the Otto-scene rather a lot. Brill to be able to put pics to the words :) thanx for sharing. I'm not so sure it shouldn't have stayed in the film either....erm...or something...
@jmzimmerman1984 hmmm, did not know that word until I looked it up on wiki now. I know zion, but thats mainly because I have a ex thats into rastafari, not anything any teacher ever told me. but yeah, I guess you are right. just goes to show you that all races/countreys have morons that think they are worth more than others
@jalusbrian According to Michael Palin it has been cut because they thought it wasn't funny enough and people did not laugh. Eric wasn't very happy about it but he eventually admitted that it wasn't too good. I think they were all wrong!
HALE LEADER! haha, I love Eric XD He did that part so well :) Shame they couldn't keep it in the movie. At least it made it to the DVD and it was on the record too :)
Actually, it says in 'The Python's Autobiography by the Pythons' that this scene was deleted because it was near the end of the film and therefore slowed the rhythm of the plot.
(Although somebody did complain about it and that's why Pythons re-considered it, but, in the end, that wasn't the reason why they cut it out.)
i really like this bit they shudnt of deleted it i think its hilarious but i can see y because there all jews and they are giving nazi salutes so really it is a bit mean but oh well still think its a great scence
They thought it was too strong for the movie at the time, and getting in the way of the actal plot. With this in it, it would have probably been banned in more countries and states. Great movie though. Love the Pythons!
Not to compare Israeli extremists with Nazis , stalinists , Arab fundamentalists or any other extremist nitwits is STUPID!!!!! When will you get it??? The world had enough of them. The best thing Israelis and Palestinians can do is apologize to each other. Then they could try to live in peace and leave us alone. Enough is enough.
that was the funniest thing ive ever seen in my life -but also scary " we must cleanse isreal of all foreingers - the palistinian pple have no country of their own for 61 yrs so far and theres an apatied and if they leave they cant return
I'm glad they cut it. It wouldn't have made the suiside quad scene at the end very funnny. They cut out a far few bits. This was the largest bit as they cut it as it was rather slow and they needed to shorten the time of the film.
I can see why the suicide squad bit was cut--it's just not really that funny, is it?.... especially when compared to other great bits in the movie like biggus, sermon on the mount, liberation front meetings, stoning, etc.
We all want to sleep in peace. I share their concern. But, their puritan urgence of solving the problem is exactly the same way of thinking as their enemies... Can't they see that today, concience is easier to access than finding a personal attitude to overcome these conflicts? Please, don't work for our enemies.
The leader who will save Israel by ridding it of the scum of non-Jewish people, make it pure! By ridding it of the scum of foreigners and riffraff and gypsies and...
The point of the Otto bit is irony. The reason they're Jewish is that this is set in Judea. This has nothing to do with whatever atrocities that the Israelis and Palestinians are committing on each other.
In view of the nature of Israel today, with palestinians rounded up in ghettos
this spoof on a Nazi propaganda film of the 1930s was well ahead of its time..and of course prophetic. Is Life of Brian the Best Film ever made about the silly, nasty, atavistic nonsense that is organised religion?
Let's be honest; there are Ashkenazi jews, Sephardic jews, Mizrahi jews, etc., etc. You propose that there is a central Jewish organization, when in fact there isn't even a central Jewish people. And Jews don't own 90% of the media. Sure, the New York times, but Fox News Channel? CNN? And Bush has said on a couple of occassions that he would support the creation of a state of Palestine. Some puppet.
P.S. If you read books like the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, it was a forgery. GET OVER IT!!
omm if your soo god damn religeous im sure you have read the bible and it clearly says you are aloud to make fun of religeons and god himself. as long as its not intended to hurt anyone and its not its for a laugh jesus
I can see why this stuff was dropped, it would have totally killed the pace of the movie, and the suicide squad joke at the end would have been ruined. But on it's own it's hilarious! Plus the fallout from daring to compare zionists to nazis would have been a joy to behold!
I don't recall the details but they had a terrible time. Had to do with Nazis and Zionism. Google it. John Cleese played pilat's wife but they cut that bit as well.
To be fair, if they are hypocrites (I can't see why) jews haven't had it so easy. Like the Spanish inquisition, the German crusade, the Italian ghettos, the time when Martin Luther called for their execution, the violence that resulted from the publishing of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion (which was a complete hoax), their murder during the Russian Revolution and of course the Holocaust. Even today there is an unusually high hatred of Jews, especially in the middle east.
Oh come on......it's funny, but a bit too long. I don't think Eric Idle is trying to say anything political. I think it's just the irony that made him do it. And this certainly looks like one of Eric's characters.
The swastika-Star Of David really cracks me up. Genius!
It's only funny if you have a bibical education and 20th century history, which is ironic 'cause the film makes fun of people who follow things blindly (religious fundamentalists)....
If I remember correctly the Prime Minister said this (the Palestinian majority problem) was one of the major reasons two years ago when Israel pulled out. I believe he had either an article or an interview with Time that you can look up....hopefully (after all, it's two years old)
ok, I never thought I'd see the day when someone said something both SERIOUS and POLITICAL in response to a friggin MONTY PYTHON video. they make fun of EVERYONE--that's just what they DO. so leave your political controversy for a different page!
monty python makes fun of EVERYONE. They didn't set out saying, "Let's make a movie so we can make fun of religious fundamentalists!" It was probably more along the lines of, "Hey, wouldn't it be funny if there was someone who everyone mistook for Jesus?" and went on with that.

To be fair, if they are hypocrites (I can't see why) jews haven't had it so easy. Like the Spanish inquisition, the German crusade, the Italian ghettos, the time when Martin Luther called for their execution, the violence that resulted from the publishing of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion (which was a complete hoax), their murder during the Russian Revolution and of course the Holocaust. Even today there is an unusually high hatred of Jews, especially in the middle east.

Oh come on......it's funny, but a bit too long. I don't think Eric Idle is trying to say anything political. I think it's just the irony that made him do it. And this certainly looks like one of Eric's characters.
The swastika-Star Of David really cracks me up. Genius!

Not only is this scene pretty offensive its not very funny.

It's only funny if you have a bibical education and 20th century history, which is ironic 'cause the film makes fun of people who follow things blindly (religious fundamentalists)....

ie. After the damages of the Holocaust, the Zionists go on to try and create their old "pure" homeland.
It's even evident in recent policies. Israel pulled out of the West Bank because if they occupied it, there would be more Palestinians than Israelis.

Lemme rephrase that...
If I remember correctly the Prime Minister said this (the Palestinian majority problem) was one of the major reasons two years ago when Israel pulled out. I believe he had either an article or an interview with Time that you can look up....hopefully (after all, it's two years old)

Anti-Semitism is even more evident in recent policies.

monty python makes fun of EVERYONE. They didn't set out saying, "Let's make a movie so we can make fun of religious fundamentalists!" It was probably more along the lines of, "Hey, wouldn't it be funny if there was someone who everyone mistook for Jesus?" and went on with that.
