Monty Python: Almost the Truth - The Lawyer's Cut
At last, for the first time ever (well, at least since the 30th anniversary!), the compete history of Monty Python. It's not all parrots, grail, and Brian. This is the in-depth and true (admittedly the almost true) story as told straight from the mouths of John Cleese, Michael Palin, Terry Jones, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, and thanks to incredible research and completely analog, undigitized archives, Graham Chapman. They are all here, the dead one, too!
Even if you weren't expecting the Spanish Inquisition (because no one does, after all), you've got one. And it's not just the Python's opinions. A cast of thousands (well, hundreds. Perhaps something more in the double digits) has been assembled. They didn't all make the cut, but rest assured they were all interviewed.
Ladies and gentlemen, we proudly present the most complete, finely tuned, and well assembled "final word" on Python. Until the next time, at least.
Please note that no lawyers survived the making of this film.

More then just an average documentry - purvilf
Almost the truth- the lawyers cut is a very good documentry for true fans of the show(and non fans too!) It opens up alot of doors to what went on with the group during different stages of python. It also showed the inflence of python on many comedians today. This documentry has interviews with the surving pythons(plus stock footage of Graham Chapman), people who were there and much, much more! Best documentry about them ever!!!!Monty Python: Almost the Truth - The Lawyer's Cut - CrazyCatLady
If you are a Monty Python fan, then this documentary series is for you. It features individual interviews with all five surviving Pythons detailing how they met, how they got their start, and sharing their reminisces behind their ground-breaking t.v. series and their movies. It’s very interesting and full of fun.
The third disc of bonus features has a selection of their most famous sketches: the Cheese Shop, the Spanish Inquisition (which, of course NO ONE expected), the Lumberjack Song, and, of course, the Dead Parrot Sketch, It also has longer individual interviews with the cast.
Sit back, relax and enjoy the brilliance that is Monty Python
