Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of fans of a well-timed joke and the curious. Good for nights when you want to switch off and laugh.
The mood
Light and funny, eye-opening.
The pace
Moves through the story clearly, at 58 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

In March 1998 in Aspen, Colorado, the surviving members of the Monty Python team – John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin – shared a stage together for the first time in 18 years. Even more remarkably, Graham Chapman was there too....in an urn! The occasion for this reunion was the US Comedy Arts Festival Tribute to Monty Python, hosted by Robert Klein in front of a live audience.
