SaligoBay Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 First, the beggar in Amelie Poulain who won't accept money on Sundays. Bof, hugely overshadowed by (and years behind) the one in Life of Brian - he's been cured of leprosy, so is now upset that he has no living, and goes jumping through the streets shouting "Alms for an ex-leper".Then Corto Maltese talking to the fish. How could anyone take that seriously who had seen the talking fish in Meaning of Life?I keep coming across these little things as I paddle along the tideless seashore that is French humour. No doubt about it, the Python team were brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letrangere Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 They most certainly were brilliant. I can so clearly remember Sunday evening (was it 10 or 10.30?) as being the most eagerly awaited moment of the week during my teens. And then watching what was usually a pretty awful programme on a Friday afternoon but which guaranteed practically every week a sketch from the previous week's Python, I'm referring to Ask Aspel.
