That’s a funny movie. I saw it years ago. I think some of the Pythons were involved in the writing. Terry Southern, of course, was another.

That was a fun movie.
The Magic Christian (1969) was right at the cusp of the hopelessly overindulgent 1960’s movies, and the extremely bizarre 1970’s movies. They really form a unique time when the movie studio system had collapsed, and directors and actors could run “hog wild”.
You can recognize a lot of the big names of British comedy and drama, including several from Monty Python, Spike Milligan, Christopher Lee, Richard Attenborough, etc. It is great midnight movie fare.

The novel was far superior to the film, as satire often misses the mark when exported to the screen. It loses the bite.
