In 1969 the groundbreaking TV program Monty Python's Flying Circus was shown on British network for the first time on the 7th of September and the catch phrase "And now for something completely different" became their trade mark

A companion book of some sort to Monty Python's Flying Circus, published in 1971. There's a lot of familiar stuff in here: the Upper-Class Twit of the Year competition, silly walks (in the form of a series of still photos), Dinsdale and his hedgehog, etc. There are also lots of very silly ads, naughty pictures, a bunch of forewords consisting entirely of people complaining about not being invited to write the foreword... Basically lot of the kind of silliness you expect from Python. The result is random, surreal, and ridiculous. So, pretty much exactly like the experience of watching an episode of the show, only without having the actual Pythons to watch, so not quite as good.

Still. I paid 50 cents for this at my local library sale, and I got at least a dollar's worth of laughs out of it, so I'm happy.

C- (Meh). It doesn't get too much worse than funny people trying really hard to be funny and failing.

Bienvenidos al caótico circo de un director iconoclasta. Guionista, dibujante, actor e integrante de los Monty Python, Terry Gilliam escudriña sus memorias en un ejercicio de introspección surreal que abarca desde su llegada al planeta en el gris Medicine Lake de Minnesota, hasta la producción del filme Teorema zero (2013). Gilliamismos. Memorias prepóstumas (2016) es el rocambolesco viaje que cualquier admirador del visionario director esperaría: en 15 capítulos, se atraviesan situaciones más cercanas al fracaso que al éxito en las filmaciones de Jabberwocky (1977), Brazil (1985), Doce monos (1995) y Tideland (2005); los inicios en la animación, los viajes a Europa, el encuentro con Monty Python y el inesperado éxito en el teatro, todas, situaciones narradas con el habitual humor ácido del visionario artista que en algún momento, decide renunciar a la nacionalidad norteamericana para convertirse en británico. El libro, presentado en una bella edición ilustrada por el propio Terry Gilliam, presenta fotos y storyboards inéditas, confesiones inesperadas y anécdotas conocidas que aquí se expanden cuando el narrador decide sincerarse y levantar su propia tapa de los sesos (literalmente, en la portada). El descenso a una de las mentes más excesivas y puntillosas de nuestros tiempos, el culpable del barroquismo de Las aventuras del barón Munchausen (1989), la locura de Miedo y asco en Las Vegas (1998), el juego hilarante de Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) y el manual cinematográfico para superar la adversidad que representa The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009). Dueño de un estilo inconfundible, repleto de acercamientos acelerados, planos imposibles y cámaras tambaleantes, Terry Gilliam no se detiene y describe fuertes agarrones con las altas esferas de los estudios de Hollywood, siempre a favor de la libertad creativa para llevar sus proyectos a la pantalla justo como los imaginó; también queda tiempo para hablar del amor, los hijos y las dudas existenciales, sobre todo, de la muerte que acecha constante. Dos años después de la edición de Gilliamismos. Memorias prepóstumas, se presentaría en el Festival de Cannes El hombre que mató a Don Quijote (2018), el célebre proyecto de Gilliam que 20 años antes, había quedado hecho pedazos debido a circunstancias inesperadas. Aquel doloroso descalabro quedaría resumido en el documental Lost in La Mancha (2002), con un triste Terry Gilliam pensativo que se funde a negros. En su libro de memorias, el cineasta vuelve a ese momento y reflexiona sobre una de las ideas que rigen su deambular en el arte: persistir sin esperanza.… (més)
