The Aristocrats

Slate: The Aristocrats - What's funny about one joke told over and over. Probably not very much, but it depends if the listener is fond of shaggy dog stories.* In any case, this is one movie that I will wait, possibly a very long time, before seeing.

* From www.wikipedia.org : "...a shaggy dog story is an extremely long-winded tale featuring extensive narration of typically irrelevant incidents that usually results in a pointless or absurd punchline."
