The stories and sketches Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Michael Palin, and Terry Gilliam have heavily influenced generaations.

It's been a tough and yet awesome year for Gilliam fans, as his almost 30-year epic quest to finish and release The Man Who Killed[...]

Okay, so, this is super disappointing and confusing on multiple levels but we've got the latest on the almost 30-year epic of Terry Gilliam's quest to finish and release The Man Who Killed Don Quixote.
