RELIGULOUS DVD Review -- Gil reviews Director Larry Charles documentary about religion starring comedian Bill Maher

Monday, February 16, 2009 3:35 PM | From Collider
Review by Gil Kellerman Director Larry Charles has taken the fly-by-the-seat-of-your-cinematic-pants approach that he used on Borat and applied it to Religulous, the documentary about religion starring comedian Bill Maher. In the film, Maher (who grew up with a Catholic father and Jewish mother, long ago renounced belief in any religion or higher power) travels the globe -- everywhere from the United States Bible Belt to Salt Lake City to Amsterdam to Jerusalem to the Vatican -- with religion on the mind. His quest is twofold. On one level, its an effort to expose/understand/ridicule the non-secular beliefs of the world. On another, its an examination of how (seemingly) level-headed people can be so influenced by and subscribe so heartily to what Maher refers to as fairy tales for adults.

15 Documentaries Getting Oscar Consideration

Monday, November 17, 2008 5:56 PM | From RopeofSilicon

The Academy has just sent over the list of 15 documentary films up for nomination in the Documentary Feature category for the 81st Academy Awards. A record 94 pictures had originally qualified in the category and I am actually quite shocked Bill Maher’s Religulous is not among the list of contenders. However, I am not a huge documentary watcher so my opinion here is not exactly the best.

The 15 films in contention are listed below in alphabetical order:

  1. At the Death House Door
  2. The Betrayal (Nerakhoon)
  3. Blessed Is the Match: The Life and Death of Hannah Senesh
  4. Encounters at the End of the World
  5. Fuel
  6. The Garden
  7. Glass: A Portrait of Philip in Twelve Parts
  8. I.O.U.S.A.
  9. In a Dream
  10. Made in America
  11. Man on Wire
  12. Pray the Devil Back to Hell
  13. Standard Operating Procedure
  14. They Killed Sister Dorothy
  15. Trouble the Water

The Documentary Branch Screening Committee viewed all the eligible documentaries for the preliminary round of voting. Documentary Branch members will now select the five nominees from among the 15 titles on the shortlist.

The 81st Academy Awards nominations will be announced on Thursday, January 22, 2009, at 5:30 a.m. PT in the Academys Samuel Goldwyn Theater.

Larry Charles Wants to Make Religulous: The HBO Series

Wednesday, October 15, 2008 5:49 PM | From /Film
In terms of pouring a glass of water into an active volcano (frequented by aliens?), a $10 million final domestic gross for Religulous will be seen as a success. As other blogs have reported, outrage over the documentary was nil, which is unsurprising yet absurd given that the film shows Bill Maher and Larry Charles [...] Read Article
