Library JournalIn their 30th-anniversary year, the surviving members of the famed comedy troupe reminisce about their careers with media journalist Morgan. This entertaining volume consists of interview transcripts covering the full Python spectrum, from the 45 episodes of the BBC's beloved Monty Python's Flying Circus (1969-74) to films like Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979) and recordings like Monty Python's The Final Rip-Off (1988). True to form, the Python members make for witty interviewees, and they relate not only production but also personal details--for example, the deceased Graham Chapman's alcoholism. Their voices are supplemented by such Python collaborators as director Ian MacNaughton, actress Carol Cleveland, and best-selling author Douglas Adams. Illustrated with behind-the-scenes photographs and stills from celebrated sketches, this volume will undoubtedly please fans. Recommended for public libraries and academic collections supporting popular culture curricula.--Neal Baker, Earlham Coll., Richmond, IN Copyright 1999 Cahners Business Information.
