FURTHER TO MY ALTERNATE HISTORY OF THE LIFE OF BRIAN POST: Reader Alex Bensky e-mails:
There is a�reference that some Americans may miss in the discussion of the alternate title of "Monty Python's Life of Brian." The movie, "Patton," was sometimes subtitled "Salute to a Rebel" in the U.S., the times being what they were. In Britain the movie was offered as "Patton: Lust for Glory," which I assume is where the Pythons got the original title idea.

It's still a wonderful movie. Blessed are the cheesemakers.

How interesting. I didn't know that.
