Produktbeschreibung

From Monty Python legend Eric Idle comes this wicked and enthralling comedy

Set during the glorious days of the Bush Empire before they finally invaded and killed irony, The Writer's Cut follows Stanley Hay, a joke writer. He has a girlfriend, a writing partner and a career going nowhere in particular. Wisecracking, ambitious and horny, Stanley decides that he is going to change that by writing a novel. This is where things start to spiral out of control.

Caught up in the excitement Stanley falsely confesses that the novel will be a kiss-and-tell (a kiss and sell?) featuring Hollywood's most famous and glamorous actresses. Before long expectations are going through the roof, Stanley is a celebrity in his own right and he's living the LA highlife. There's only one little problem...

Funny and pointed, The Writer's Cut is a manic satirical ride through the booze and sex fuelled world of Tinseltown from our one of the world's best loved comedians.
