An important and interesting book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book chronicles all the legal trouble of the Monty Python group, from the beginning to Life of Brian. It could be boring, but it is actually very funny. It contains a lot of material that was edited out by the Python's themselves becaues even they thought it too offensive! When you read about the aggression and legal wranglings of conservative "christians" you start wonder if Python parodied reality or if reality parodied the Python's! We can read about the attacks on Life of Brian as a blue-print for the new "crusade" against everything the evangelicals don't like.
