Monty Python – Almost the Truth: The Lawyer’s Cut
Eagle Rock Film Productions
www.pytononline.com  

Rating: A 

Okay, this is not a music DVD.  It is Monty Python.  It is comedy (to some).  It is funny (to certain individuals).  I have not met many true rockers from the Classic Rock era who do not worship at the throne of Python.  These guys were rock stars that happened to be British, nerdy smartpantses.  They made us laugh.  It is even rumored that many moons ago teenage rockers enjoyed watching these shows late at night in the USA on public television while lighting ceratin herbs and inhaling the smoke into their lungs.  I cannot verify this to be true but others have told me tales of their own misadventure.   

This is a look behind the scenes with candid interviews with the boys who made the magic happen.  There are three DVD’s in The Lawyer’s Cut.  The interviews cover the band of brothers from the very beginning to the current day.  Included are several classic sketches, including “The Parrot Sketch” and “The Funny Walk.”   

Python mania is alive and well.
