Monty Python's Life Of Brian... and George Harrison's cameo (filmed in Tunisia in September 1978).
"We were looking for four million dollars. Nobody has that amount of money. But eventually when we finally got to California, George says, 'Yeah, I figured it out. We’re going to create a company and we’re going to give you the money, and it’s four million dollars.’ And he mortgaged his house to put up the money for this movie because he wanted to see it, which is still the most anybody’s ever paid for a cinema ticket. It was the most extraordinary act of benevolence and farsightedness. He paid for the entire film. I think the reason he did it is because he was a Python fan. You could not get through the door without seventeen lines being quoted. I mean, on tour he called himself Jack Lumber. And it was a bit like Bialystock and Bloom, him and his manager, because they can’t possibly have imagined it was going to make any money. And of course it did, it started to make money, which was like, Oh no!" - Eric Idle, Living In The Material World
“Life of Brian wouldn’t have been made without George. When the head of EMI read our script, he was so shocked by its content he withdrew the company’s financial backing. George invested his own money in the movie to the tune of several million pounds, explaining he just wanted to see the film. As Terry Jones remarked, that must have made it the most expensive ticket in cinema history.” - Michael Palin, BBC Radio 2, 2009
"[George] pulled out a photo of his baby son Dhani, and showed the group. Baby Dhani was dressed in a miniature Gumby suit, thanks to his Uncle Eric." - Kim Howard Johnson's on set memories, KimHowardJohnson dot com (x)
"Well, if you’re looking for me, then everybody’s going to look like that. There’s just one little shot, it’s probably about 12 frames. Do you know the scene where he comes out of the room and there’s crowds of people in the house and #JohnCleese is there saying, ‘Those people with gifts form a queue on the left. Those possessed by demons over to the right,’ and then he comes out and he says, ‘Brian, Mister Papadopolous has promised to loan us the mount for Monday.’ You have to go through it again and see that scene and it cuts across and I’m in the crowd. And I just say, ‘Eh, hello, thank you or something… hello!’ That’s all it is!" - George Harrison, Undercover, 1992
"Actually all it [the movie] made fun of was the people's stupidity in the story. Christ came out of it looking good! Myself and all of Monty Python have great respect for Christ. It's only the ignorant people - who didn't care to check it out - who thought that it was knocking Christ. Actually it was upholding Christ and knocking all the idiotic stuff that goes on around religion, like the fact that many folks often misread things and will follow anybody. Brian's saying, 'Don't follow me. You're all individuals.' It's like Christ said, 'You'll all do greater work than I will.' He wasn't trying to say, 'I'm the groove, man, and you should follow me.' He was out there trying to, as [comedian] Lord Buckley would have said, 'Knock the crows off the squares,' trying to hip everybody to the fact that they have the Christ within." - George Harrison, Musician, November 1987
"For George, the shock of finding himself in a crowd mobbing someone else was too much and he took early retirement and went back to his previous career as a musician." - Michael Palin in his speech at the 10th anniversary party, October 1988 (x)
“We shared one brief moment years ago that […] I’m sure meant nothing to him, but has stuck with me ever since. The first time I met him was in the Sidi Mansour while we were filming Monty Python’s Life of Brian; George had just arrived as we were all watching rushes. At some point, as the group exited and was milling around in the lobby, I introduced myself and gave him a copy of one of my Python fanzines. He began looking through it as Eric Idle approached and asked what he was doing. He showed Eric the zine. ‘This gentleman just gave me one of his Python magazines,’ he told him. This gentleman. George Harrison called me a gentleman! This was particularly amazing to me because at that moment, I looked like anything but a gentleman. I had gone to the hotel directly from the hot, dusty, dry set, I was wearing a tank top and shorts. My hair looked like it was cut in a way that it would all fit under a Roman soldier helmet without any of it sticking out, that being the purpose. I may have looked like many things, but a gentleman would not have been high on the list. But none of that mattered to George. He was all about respect, even to one odd, enthusiastic young stranger. This gentleman…” - Kim “Howard” Johnson, howardjohnsonblog dot com, 24 February 2014 (x)
“[HandMade Films] was born out of people’s bigotry. So good for George [Harrison]. And George loved it, loved the idea that he’d taken on the forces of reaction and won. It was a very Beatle-ish thing to do.” - Michael Palin, Very Naughty Boys: The Amazing True Story of HandMade Films
“George said, ‘Well, you know, when ‪The Beatles‬ were breaking up, Python kept me sane, really, so I owe you one.’” - Terry Jones, Very Naughty Boys: The Amazing True Story of HandMade Films
"[Without George funding it,] Life of Brian would never have been made.” - Eric Idle, Very Naughty Boys: The Amazing True Story of HandMade Films
“[George] actually mortgaged his house in Henley to put the money down to set up Handmade Films, the production company that backed ‪Life of Brian‬.” - Michael Palin, The Independent, 1 December 2001
“It was Ray Cooper who told us when we interviewed him, that some people, when they become rich and famous, just keep their hands in their pockets and never help anyone. Whereas George was always putting his hand in his pocket to help people. He believed he had been given great wealth for a reason and if he could share his good fortune, then that was part of what he was meant to do in his lifetime. As George says in the movie, he loved Monty Python and that was the reason he started the company in the first place – to help his friends because he loved them so much.“ - Kim Leggatt, producer and director of An Accidental Studio, beatles dot kielce dot com dot pl, 28 May 2019
“A lot of people don’t know that side of George, who was much more of a Renaissance man than people think. He had a feeling for all kinds of things and by golly, we all sure miss him.” - Neil Innes, Los Angeles Times, 10 October 2019 (x)

Ray Cooper III vs Magomed Magomedkerimov 1
We already talked about returning champion Ray Cooper III, so let’s talk about his rival Magomed Magomedkerimov (29-6). The Russian welterweight was the 2018 champion, the first of the company’s then new format. He submitted Ray Cooper III to do it in the finals. He was forced out of the 2019 season finale due to illness and made it all the way back to the finals in 2021, only to get knocked out by Cooper in the 3rd round of their rematch.
Needless to say, we could have a trilogy fight on our hands in the near future. But first, Magomedkerimov will face off with Brazilian João Zeferino (26-9) in the welterweight season opener. The two will meet this Friday (May 6) at PFL 2022 #3: Regular Season.
