DRUNK STONED BRILLIANT DEAD: THE STORY OF THE NATIONAL LAMPOON


December 15 – 17

DRUNK STONED BRILLIANT DEAD: THE STORY OF THE NATIONAL LAMPOON

Dir: Douglas Tirola / 2015 / US, UK / 98 min / DCP

From the 1970s thru the 1990s, there was no hipper, no more outrageous comedy in print than The National Lampoon, the groundbreaking humor magazine that pushed the limits of taste and acceptability – and then pushed them even harder. In this highly entertaining documentary, the rise of National Lampoon is explored from its humble origins to its eventual revered place in the cultural lexicon, which saw it shape pop culture, while sparking the careers of numerous well-known comedians, actors, and writers, including most of the cast of the first season of Saturday Night Live. “Grade: A. Fascinating, funny, smart, juvenile, tragic, and likely to offend just about everyone. It’s a must-see for anyone who cares about comedy.” – Entertainment Weekly

SCREENING:   TUE 12/15 6:30; WED 12/16 6:30; THU 12/17 4:00; THU 12/17 9:00
Tickets for this film screening can be purchased at the box office 1/2 hour before showtime.
