Monty Python's Life of Brian: Screenplay

Monty Python, 2001

When «The Life of Brian» was first released in 1979 it was hailed by most as Monty Python's finest parody and denounced by a few as the most blasphemous film of all time. But, with its unforgettable song, 'Always Look on the Bright Side of Life', and its infinitely quotable script it has gone on to become an enduring cult classic. Подробнее

Monty Python's Meaning of Life

Monty Python, 1999

A fully illustrated edition of the hilarious Python classic which takes a pop at almost every single sacred cow of culture and includes the famous tune «Every sperm is sacred». Although primarily aimed at an audience of fish, Monty Python's film, «The Meaning of Life» spans the whole range of human experience. It starts with the birth of a seemingly insignificant human being (especially from a haddock's point of view) who, sure enough turns out to play no further part in the film. Подробнее

From Siberia with Love: A Story of Exile, Revolution and Cigarettes

Geoffrey Elliott, 2006

In pre-Revolutionary Russia, Geoffrey Elliott's grandfather, David, was taken from rural exile to the brutality of an Irkutsk prison for his involvement with a group of anti-government activists. Here he met Manya, the love of his life, and the two become embroiled in a political protest resulting in raids by the police and the death of three friends. After a long spell in prison, David fled with Manya to London, where he joined the Russian tobacco trade at The House of Sobranie, and the couple started a family. A homesick about-turn took the family back to Siberia — but amidst the turmoil of revolution in 1917, they were forced to flee once more through Asia and Europe to the alien safety of London. Told with great affection, Geoffrey Elliott's compelling history of his extraordinary family is an epic and very human tale of exile, home, and hope for change. Подробнее

Dear Writer, Dear Actress: The Love Letters of Anton Chekhov and Olga Knipper

Anton Chekhov, 2007

The five year friendship and marriage of the writer Anton Chekhov and the actress Olga Knipper, who created many of the central female roles in his plays, is one of the most extraordinary love stories in the history of the theatre. Because of Knipper's work at the Moscow Art Theatre and Chekhov's illness, which bound him to Yalta, their relationship flourished through a constant stream of letters between them. Temperamentally the actress and writer were at odds, and their correspondence reveals a relationship as tempestuous, teasing and spontaneous as the many relationships found in Chekhov's stories and plays. This selection is the passionate and enduring record of their love affair. Подробнее
