Aristocrats, The

There isn’t enough soap in the world to wash out the mouths blabbering away in this insider’s view of the comedy world, which centers around the legendary and
profane joke of the title. If you can get past the obscenity of the joke itself – although there probably is something wrong with you if you can – The Aristocrats works as a revealing study of what, in effect, is so funny. The movie separates those who just talk you-know-what
from those who can do something creative with it. Featuring expectedly hilarious renditions from George Carlin, Drew Carey and Steven Wright, plus surprisingly hilarious ones from Gilbert Gottfried and Whoopi Goldberg.
