The Aristocrats

Paul Provenza 2005

A documentary about a joke shared by comedians seemingly since the beginning of time.

A bunch of mostly American comedians I haven't heard of, sit around and tell their version of the Aristocrats joke, which isn't really funny and seems to be all about who can be the filthiest.

This paper-thin premise is stretched to a full 89 minutes. 89 whole minutes of smug comedians seeing who can swear the most or who can be most offensive, but only really succeeding in making a very boring film.
