When it comes to character comedy, Sacha Baron Cohen stands tall, both literally and figuratively, above so many others for his daring and commitment as Borat and Ali G in service of comedy and satire. Eric Idle remains a living legend as part of one of the most lauded comedy troupes of all time, Monty Python.
You’d very likely pay good money to see either of them do a Q&A, virtually or in-person. Lucky for you, American Cinematheque is hosting a special virtual conversation between Cohen and Idle this month where the two will dive into their work. Truly, it ought to be illuminating to see both just as themselves talking shop.
This virtual conversation is set for Wed. Feb. 17th at 6PM PT/9PM ET. Tickets for livestream access are FREE, but be sure to RSVP here.
