A Liar's Autobiography: The Untrue Story of Monty Python's Graham Chapman - A Review

4 Stars - Interesting

This is a somewhat unusual film, created from audio recordings of Graham Chapman reading his Liar's Autobiography and animated around them with the other members of Monty Python providing voices of the incidental characters, except for Eric Idle who is inexplicably absent.

I like this film, there is a lot of funny stuff and it isn't afraid to go into surreal and dark territory with its sections.

The animation is odd, with different sections having different style of animation. For the most part however it is good, with a couple of sections here and there being very hard on the eyes and difficult to make out exactly what was happening.

Oh and they do 'Sit On My Face' as a giant production number...

In short, an interesting film, maybe worth a watch by Python fans, and certainly deserves to find a cult audience if nothing else.
