MONTY PYTHON: ALMOST THE TRUTH

(2010, 120 mins, Bill & Ben Productions/IFC, Directed by Bill Jones, Ben Timlett & Alan G. Parker)

This is the L.A. Premiere of the two-hour theatrical version of the acclaimed six-hour documentary that covers 40 years of Monty Python. From 1969's "Flying Circus" to contemporary projects such as the musical "Spamalot". It's the Python equivalent of the Beatles' "Anthology" TV series. It tells the tale using exhilarating extracts - including many rare Python and pre-Python clips. It features new interviews with John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin, alongside archive interview footage of the late Graham Chapman and interviews with several associates of the Pythons, including Carol Cleveland and Neil Innes. Other participants include Eddie Izzard, Russell Brand, Dan Aykroyd, Jimmy Fallon, Seth Green, Simon Pegg, Tim Roth. And even the man who financed the Python's first movie - Hugh Hefner!
