Chronicling the life of Brian, who's born at the same time as Jesus and spends the rest of his life being mistaken for the Messiah, the film never misses a change for a yuck. In the best tradition of Monty Python, some of the greatest laughs are also the most squirm-provoking; the film's crucifixion finale, quite predictably, generated considerable outrage. The CD contains most of the film's best moments, including "Revolutionaries in the Amphitheatre" and "He's Not the Messiah/He's a Very Naughty Boy." Since having a TV in the car is dangerous, this is the perfect thing for the morning commute. --Genevieve Williams
