"I Want To Be A Woman"...a struggle with reality...lApril 26, 2021"Why are you always going on about women, Stan." "I want to be one. " "What???" "I want to be one. From now on I want you all to call me 'Loretta.'" "What?!?" "It's my right as a man. I want to have babies..." A clip from the movie "The Life of Brian," a satirical comedy (1979) poking fun especially at religion, as well as other cultural thoughts and practices. It was almost prophetic, though in its time it was largely rejected as being sacrilegious. Far from being actually sacrilegious, it took on many "sacred cows" of the western world, which themselves are actually quite "religiously" held dear by many. The film has some language and brief passing nudity, but has many overriding merits for its themes and writing.
