Memorable Movie Scenes No. 8

This time we remember a classic scene from a classic comedy written and directed by the amazing Monty Pythons
It is from the exceptional film Life of Brian and it is the moment when The Grumpy People's Front of Judea discuss about one of their member's right to have babies... even though he is a man and he doesn't have a womb and he might keep it in a box. Well, it might be confusing but it is hilariously funny. Enjoy!

STAN: Don't you oppress me.
REG: I'm not oppressing you, Stan. You haven't got a womb! Where's the foetus going to gestate?! You going to keep it in a box?!
JUDITH: Here! I-- I've got an idea. Suppose you agree that he can't actually have babies, not having a womb, which is nobody's fault, not even the Romans', but that he can have the right to have babies.
FRANCIS: Good idea, Judith. We shall fight the oppressors for your right to have babies, brother. Sister. Sorry.
REG: What's the point?
FRANCIS: What?
REG: What's the point of fighting for his right to have babies when he can't have babies?!
FRANCIS: It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression.
REG: Symbolic of his struggle against reality.
