Monty Python's The Meaning of Life (1983)
Country: GB
Technical: col 90m
Director: Terry Jones
Cast: The Pythons
Synopsis:
Birth, sex, war and other momentous themes are given the TV series treatment.
Review:
Big on budget but unhappily low on originality, this final screen outing is for the most part embarrassingly heavy-handed, though the songs amuse. The most inventive part is the short which precedes it, in fact: The Crimson Permanent Assurance, about a firm of old accountants which finds itself the subject of a hostile takeover bid.
