    And Now for Something Completely Different, Monty Python's first feature, is a reworking of their best skits from the first two seasons of the TV series. Originally made for the US market (where the show had yet to be aired), it was shot on film outside the usual studio sets ("Nudge Nudge", for example, is set in a tavern filled with passers-by). The writing and performances are fine and the film is packed with some of their best bits: "How to Avoid Being Seen", " Hell's Grannies", "Blackmail", "The Lumberjack Song" and "The Upper Class Twit of the Year", among others. Many of the sketches have been shortened, however, and the loss of the overly bright video sheen (the film has a muddy, dull look to it) and the invigorating presence of a live audience leaves the film sluggish at times. They're still feeling out the possibilities of the feature length, which they conquered with their next movie, Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1974). --Sean Axmaker

    Governments, multinational corporations and religious organizations have secretly wielded tremendous power by holding back critical data or spreading misinformation to further their own aims. This program exposes the almost inconceivable stories of deceit, conspiracy, sanctioned piracy and scientific knowledge hidden from the world for far too long!Keeping the Faith: The Mystery of Mass SuicideHow can the charismatic energy of any leader translate into the voluntary death of hundreds, even thousands, of people? Throughout the course of civilisation incidents of mass suicide have shaken humanity to the core. Yet history records very different social attitudes toward these extreme events. From the martyrdom of the Jews at Masada to the debauchery and carnage perpetuated by Jim Jones in Guyana, are these the acts of the morally righteous or the morally depraved? In the end, what made them do it?Science Fraud: E=MC$The cold fusion debacle and the purported discovery of the Piltdown man stand as two of the greatest shams perpetrated over the course of scientific history. Have we learned anything from the real or alleged goldbricks of the past? Experts in the field think not. Today's scientists are under considerably more pressure to achieve results in their field. If they don't, they risk losing research grants or, perhaps more importantly, their chance at university tenure. How do these inherent conflicts of interest impact the integrity of medical and scientific discovery, and how do they affect our society at large?
