Basada libremente en el libro de memorias del componente de los Monty Python Graham Chapman, fallecido en 1989, la película reconstruye su biografía a través de 15 segmentos elaborados por distintos estudios de animación. La infancia de Chapman durante la guerra, los primeros pasos de los Monty Python en la televisión inglesa, la etapa universitaria donde conoció a John Cleese y muchas otras vivencias se suceden en forma de collage animado narrado por el propio Chapman (gracias a las lectura que hizo de su propio libro) y los miembros del grupo Monty Python, que han prestado sus voces, reuniéndose por primera vez en un trabajo creativo desde su disolución en 1983.

I think Graham Chapman would be pleased. His autobiography feels almost as charmingly goofy in the film as it does on paper, it's just as falsely unbelievable and at times "serious" (alcoholism), the ambiguities are even more ambiguous (the scene with Biggles leads the way), and even the warm musical number like the song "Sit on my face" is a must-see. A big bonus is, of course, the dubbing, which was done by the remaining Pythons plus a few guests in addition to the author who has been dead for 24 years (the presence of Cameron Diaz as Sigmund Freud only underlines what a crazy show it is), and the authors of all the animated parts also deserve praise - each one is unique. It's a pity that about a quarter of an hour before the end, Autobiography isn't very interesting or funny. That's when we find ourselves at a party from which Chapman flees, hidden behind a cut-out Inspector Clouseau, but fortunately the subsequent cosmic encounter with Oscar Wilde sets things right. Four and a half.
