This is an actual music video for the song Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (from Life of Brian) which splices together classic moments from the TV show into one video. The editing was well done enough to look like a fan was doing it even though I'm pretty sure this was made to promote the Monty Python Sings album!
If you love the song as much as I do, this video is full of enjoyment!

I best remember Bright Side of Life from Spamalot, which I highly recommend you go see if you ever get the chance. Even if you're not a musical guy, if you like Monty Python, you'll have a good time.

@The Dude
I saw Spamalot during my trip to NYC with my dad in 2006, and it was a jolly good time!

Definitely up there with the best plays I've ever seen.

I had the opportunity to see 'Spamalot' as well, it was highly entertaining and creative. Although I thought the second act was a little weaker than the first though.
Big up to some of the posted sketches, classic.

It's weird I love so many British comedies, Red Dwarf, Allo Allo, Absolutely Fabulous, One Foot In The Grave, Big Train, The Mighty Boosh, Mr. Bean, Absolute Power, Fawlty Towers, The Young Ones, Bottom, The League Of Gentlemen, Yes Minister, etc.
BUT I CAN'T STAND MONTY PYTHON.
Weird aye?

Did you ever see Father Ted? In my opinion, that's one of the best.

I'm not a huge Monty Python fan, but I do enjoy there movies on occasion. Never could get into the Flying Circus. I do like John Cleese a lot though, with A Fish Called Wanda being one of my all time favorite comedy's.

Indeed, there's heaps more that I can't recall right now, a lot of them I have on DVD are still up at my old place.

John Cleese did I really interesting and fun special for a food channel called 'Wine For the Confused' which I thought was super entertaining. You'd probably have to poke around the Internet for it, but it's definitely worth a watch. You basically start out knowing as much about wine as he does, and the documentary follows him through wine country as he seeks answers.

Lot of appreciation threads for a site about cinema snobs hating on exploitation movies, eh?
Monty Python's cool. I'm looking for an excuse to quote him in a review. Actually, I may have just gotten an idea.
