And Now for Something Completely Different (DVD)
Monty Python is actually a comedy troupe consisting of British actors Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Michael Palin, and American Terry Gilliam (BRAZIL, 12 MONKEYS). The troupe evolved from the Cambridge Footlight Society, a theatrical comedy troupe at Cambridge University. The collective was groundbreaking both in terms of its offbeat acting styles and radical approach to the most controversial subjects of the time, among them sex, politics, and race. Most of the Pythons have gone on to successful careers in entertainment, writing, acting, directing, and more.AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT consists of some of Monty Python's funniest sketches from their earliest years together. Director Ian MacNaughton leads John Cleese, Graham Chapman, Michael Palin, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, and Terry Gilliam on a hysterical romp through familiar Python locales. This includes pet shops; marriage counselor offices; odd London streets; upper-class twits; old ladies on motorcycles, fighting off milkmen; bank robbers; crazy flashers; dirty forks; and killer jokes. The sketches have been re-created for the big screen, without the ever-present laugh track, but are still loaded with Gilliam's outrageously funny surreal animation. (Gilliam went through a plethora of different career paths before becoming a director, and at one point was working as an illustrator in a Los Angeles advertising agency.) As in the television show, the skits are linked together through clever animation as well as by characters in uniform (Graham Chapman, in this case) proclaiming, I'm warning this film not to get silly again. Among Monty Python's favorite targets are the military, the police, the British government, the courts, Mao, Uncle Sam, and television reporters. As always, there are lots of men in drag. Even the closing credits are a riot. But watch out for that 16-ton weight! AND NOW...

Legendary actor Alain Delon (PURPLE NOON, LE SAMOURAI), arguably France's most handsome and glamorous leading man, stars in this classic tale of love, French style. Delon plays a young politician on the fast track to becoming his government's new Prime Minister. His ambition blinds him to everything and everyone until he falls for a beautiful young fashion model. The politician's conflict between this new passion and his ladder-climbing career ambitions allows director Pierre Granier-Deferre to explore issues of personal happiness versus public good. CREEZY also features a performance by another of France's cinematic icons, Jeanne Moreau (JULES& JIM, DIARY OF A CHAMBERMAID).DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Additional Release Material: Audio Commentary TrailersText/Photo Galleries: Biographies Stills/Photos
