Take a look at that file with a hex viewer.  If you edited in Windows, 
it'll probably have 0d0a line endings.  Those do NOT work with a shebang 
line.  If that's the problem, then you can use dos2unix or equivalent 
utility to fix it up.  Or your favorite Linux editor.


If that's still not it, then how about using copy/paste to show us 
exactly what's happening.  "Fails" is not very descriptive.  Show us the 
console screen for something like:

cat  RR.py
#!/usr/bin/python
print("Hello world")
./RR.py
As-many-as-5-lines-of-traceback error message, if it's a Python 
exception, and something different if it's a bash error.
