About The Author

Robert Sellers is the author of many film books, including Hellraisers and a biography of Harrison Ford.

"Many fascinating and even painful anecdotes throughout Very Naughty Boys." – Fixlist "Very Naughty Boys is a funny (and eventually sad) and fact-filled book about filmmaking that should be required reading for all Python, George Harrison, and British film enthusiasts." – Culture Mass"Very Naughty Boys is essential reading—above all for readers with an affinity for The Beatles, Monty Python, and HandMade’s unique contribution to cinema." – Deep Focus"Sellers have crafted a great behind-the-scenes yarn that encapsulates in great detail the toil, triumph, tears and zeal to make these movies, along with the hubris that made it both succeed and fall apart." – The Playlist"Robert Sellers does a fantastic job of delivering the details in a fun-to-read manner. The Handmade films saga must be read to be believed, and this is a must read for any." – Pretty Clever Film Review"This is a great read for film buffs and fans of British cinema." – Retrenders
