A Liar's Autobiography - Official Trailer

Graham Chapman, probably best remembered as 'the dead one from Monty Python', writes and stars in the animated movie of his own life story, A LIAR'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY. Although Chapman selfishly dropped dead in 1989, he had taken the trouble to record himself reading his book, A Liar's Autobiography -- and those recordings have now ingeniously been used to provide Chapman's voice for the 3D animated feature of the same name. Fellow Pythons John Cleese, Terry Jones, Michael Palin, and Terry Gilliam also turn up, playing themselves and other characters, along with a few surprise guests.

Not a documentary, not a Monty Python film, A LIAR'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY is Chapman's own take on his bizarre life and his search for self-knowledge, bringing Chapman back to life in an ingenious tour de force of animation, told through 17 different animation styles from 14 different animators.

Incredible, yes. Surreal, certainly. True? Who knows? At his memorial service, John Cleese called Chapman "a freeloading bastard". Now, as the film re-unites Chapman with Cleese, Jones, Palin, and Gilliam for the first time in 23 years, he is set to earn a new title -- the most prolific corpse since Elvis.

EPIX and Brainstorm Media present, in association with Trinity, A Liar's Autobiography -- The Untrue Story of Monty Python's Graham Chapman.

A Liar's Autobiography will be released in the UK by Trinity early 2013.
Premiering on EPIX and in select U.S. theatres in 3D on November 2, 2012.

That is some competent necromancy.

Lemon Curry?

A Liar's Autobiography? - Has Lance Armstrong written another book then?

[Umby64]

Yes, definitely yes

[xTimeswordx]

You're right, because you don't have a case. ;) It's not a democracy, it's a hierarchy.

[Umby64]

No it is not, compared to the rest of the world. "They have a Queen, therefore it's not a democracy" - congratulations, you fail even at the most basic concepts - I don't think I'll need more to rest my case

[xTimeswordx]

A pluralistic democracy almost without bloodshed? HAHAHAHAH YEAH RIGHT. Have you ever read any history of Britain? It's filled with TONS of bloodshed. Infact, it's not even a democracy, you still have a queen! Also, "not the britons"? If you can't even talk about them correctly, don't both talking about them at all you ignoramus.

[Umby64]

No it's not just that. The point is that you call "low brow" a straight product of Oxford and Cambridge artistic enviroment. You're sad.

And free speech? Are you also retarded? Great Britain is the only State to have achieved a pluralistic democracy almost without bloodshed. Have you ever seen how they use their Houses? Compare them to your absolutely inefficient Congress! And what about Bradley Manning? it is you who have a problem with free speech, not the britons.

Was it really so hard to get Eric Idle involved? I seem to remember that he wasn't on the best terms with Terry Jones...

[Andrew Chappell]

Why don't you watch it and decide for yourself?

[Monkof Magnesia]

I have the hardcover book!

A wonderful trip through grahams life.
