Monty Python Midnights
40th Anniversary celebration!
Fri, Oct 16 - Sat, Dec 5, 2009
@ the IFC Center in NYC
And now for something completely different!
Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin ignited a comedy revolution when they brought "Monty Python's Flying Circus" to BBC television forty years ago. We're celebrating their achievement with a late-night presentation of the best of their big-screen antics.
Our tribute includes all five of the Pythons' features, plus three films directed by Python alumnus Terry Gilliam -- JABBERWOCKY, starring Michael Palin; BRAZIL, also featuring Palin; and TIME BANDITS, co-written by Gilliam and Palin and starring Cleese.
An exhibition of original Monty Python movie posters from around the world will be on display in the Posteritati at IFC Center gallery on our second floor, starting next week.
