Journey Of The Childmen: The Mighty Boosh On Tour
(Oliver Ralfe, UK, 2009, DVCAM, 76 min) The Python-like comedy troupe known as The Mighty Boosh has the cultiest of cult reputations in the U.S. thanks to the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, but in the UK, where they're idolized as national heroes, they sell out large arenas and fight off droves of swooning girls. Whatever the secret to the success of the incongruous Boosh humor, director/composer Ralfe, a cult figure in his own right with his Ralfe Band, holds it close to his chest in this dreamy documentary punctuated by whimsical flights of fancy. Rather than a concert film, accept it as a live backstage demonstration of the loopy Boosh sensibility, as the boys, fronted by tousle-headed Noel Fielding and mustachioed Julian Barratt, steam through a 99-show tour of Britain in goofy sailor suits and dowdy housedresses.
