This is the gripping true story of the rise and fall of one of the UK's most innovative film companies. HandMade Films was personally set up by George Harrison to make Monty Python's Life and Brian. They went on to make Withnail and I, Nuns on the Run and The Time Bandits amongst many other classics. However it all went sour when Harrison fell out with his financial partner and filed a USD25m lawsuit against him. Robert Sellers has interviewed a host of key players such as Robbie Coltrane and John Cleese for this brilliantly written history of the troubled film company. Packed full of hilarious anecdotes and behind-the-scenes stories about stars as diverse as Madonna, the Pythons and Robbie Coltrane, Very Naughty Boys is an essential item in any film-buff's library.
