Zach Galifianakis: Live at the Purple Onion

Zack Galifinakis really is one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen, and the movie "Zack  Galifinakis: Live and the Purple Onion" really emphisizes his style of humour. It's a style that de-emphisizes the value of celebrity and embrases the awkward everyday bizzare nature of reality.

He's completeley straight faced and has a beard. For some reason that's an untapped feild for humour.

I still haven't seen "The Hangover" but I hear it's really good and can't wait to. The first time I ever recognized him was when I first started watching "Tim and Eric", which I think is a great show. There's something going with him that's hard to define. He's not high or low brow, he just seems to be coming from the left field.. literally shifting his emotions for no reason in the middle of a set, but somehow maintaining a consistant stage pressense.




This isn't a long documentary. Not sure if it even counts as one. But it's really good and really funny.

I give it 4/5 beards
