A Liar’s Autobiography
($34.99 Blu-ray; $24.99 DVD; Virgil Films/Arts Alliance)

Prior to his death from cancer in 1989, openly gay Monty Python troupe member Graham Chapman recorded himself reading his tongue-in-cheek memoir. Combining that audio, new footage from surviving MP  members and outrageous 3D animation, this utterly unique biopic traces Chapman’s life from childhood to sexual awakening to Python fame.

      “gripping piece of modern neorealism that never condescends or resorts to sentimental Hollywood parlor tricks.”

      ROFLMAO

      sorry, you mean a film that resorts to all of the crassest of French cinema’s pitiful stereotypes?

      @MikeE: I read that and couldn’t get past the ridiculous ego blowjob Lawrence gave himself when he thought of it.

      Surprised it didn’t descend into a full rant about how Herzog and Kurosawa on their own are better than anything anyone in the west has ever produced. So I guess he gets kudos for that.

      He also scores points for not going on and on about David Lynch.
