Introduction

A Liar’s Autobiography is an animated 3D black comedy movie based on the memoir of the late Python member, Graham Chapman, who died in 1989 at the age of 48. A book was first published in 1980 that chronicles the extraordinary life of Graham Chapman from childhood in Britain, via medical school to his life as a Python, and featured fame, largesse and Hollywood. This film uses recently discovered audio tapes of Chapman to create the narration, alongside fellow Pythons who play themselves and other characters. The images, in true Python style, were created by fifteen animation companies from the UK and US. The result is a fitting homage to Graham Chapman – a Python, womanizer, homosexual, doctor of medicine, alcoholic, lunatic and comedy legend.
