Fans of Monty Python are in for a treat in the near future, A Liar's Autobiography: The Untrue Story of Monty Python's Graham Chapman, a Python-based animated film, is almost here! The film is being produced by London-based Bill and Ben Productions, and was animated in 17 different styles by 14 different companies (including A for Animation).
The film is based on late-great Python Graham Chapman's (untrue) memoirs, A Liar's Autobiography (Volume VI), and features Chapman's reading of the book, recorded before his death in 1989. Though not a Monty Python film, A Liar's Autobiography does feature the voices John Cleese, Michael Palin, Terry Jones and Terry Gilliam (but not Eric Idle).
A cacophony of randomness, quirkiness and not appropriate for children-ness, the first trailer (above) for the film looks great! Funny, striking and moving in places, A Liar's Autobiography looks to be a whole lot of fun.
A Liar's Autobiography will premiere at TIFF this weekend and will air in the US, on EPIX, later this year, before a limited 3D theatrical release, starting 2nd November. The film, made by a British studio about a British comedian, will then be released in the UK early next year, by Trinity.
