The Aristocrats

NO NUDITY. NO VIOLENCE. UNSPEAKABLE OBSCENITY.Ā 

aristocratsThis documentary is certainly one of the most foul-mouthed movies you will ever see, so donā€™t miss the opportunity. We’re told it has 100 comedians (I havenā€™t counted them) talking about the most famous joke of the trade, the one that ends with the punchline ā€œThe Aristocratsā€, and gives anyone who tells it limitless chances to be as obscene and gross as possible. It isnā€™t a very funny joke, but itā€™s beloved because of the chance to improvise. Itā€™s such a treat watching these pros talk about the structure of the joke and give us various versions of it. Very funny, to be sure, but somewhat repetitive and some comedians are better than others.

2005-U.S. 89 min. Color. Directed byĀ Paul Provenza.
