| | |  | POP MUSIC | Home » » Zach Galifianakis - Live at the Purple Onion | | | | | | | Description: | | Eccentric comedian Zach Galifianakis has earned an underground cult following for his idiosyncratic standup routines that recall the wry sardonicism of David Cross mixed with the droll edginess of Mitch Hedberg - and often feature Galifianakis softly accompanying himself on piano. This program captures the offbeat comedian in a 2005 live performance filmed in front of an appreciative audience at San Francisco's famed Purple Onion comedy club. Off-stage, you will meet Seth Galifianakis, Zach's 'twin brother.' In an emotional interview with Brian Unger, he sheds some light on his brother Zach, revealing how he came to be who he is today. | | | Product Details: | | | Actors:

 This DVD sh** is his ticket out!Aug 16, 2007
By Danny O.
Zach Galifiankis is the truth.
His style of comedy isn't stand-up comedy, it's entertainment. Zach Galifiankis is one of very few comedians who can entertain you in ways funnier than 99% of the stand-behind-the-mic for 30 minutes on a Comedy Central special comedians. I'm not knocking those comics, some are very funny, but Zach's not a "Hey, my girlfriend is so different from me because.." kind of guy. He puts on a great show, and it's rare to find someone with the ability to take you on a ride like this because it's not the cookie-cutter comedy that TV networks throw sitcoms at.
His brother, Seth Galifiankis, is also hilarious here. Interview segments with NPR's Brian Unger (I know, what!?) are nothing less than brilliant, who else but Zach and Seth could pull the whole thing off? The outtakes and deleted scenes are a must, they're not just extra content to fill up the disc. Replay value on both the main feature and the extras is very high.
Buy two, because if you're like me, you'll immediately want to give this as a gift to let others experience it. For $12.99, you shouldn't think twice about buying this.

Simply AMAZING!Mar 18, 2007
By Justin Sluss
Great comedian, Great performance and presentation almost like a movie at times. Love his alter-ego fake brother Seth, he cracks me, my friends, interviewer Brian Unger and I'm sure the rest of the world CRACK THE HELL up.

Do yourself a favor and buy this...Mar 16, 2007
By S. Burch
This dvd is hiliarious, showing Zach doing what he does best, making us laugh. Topics range from family, failed career, politics, etc. The Seth Galiafinakis footage is also priceless.

You May Become A GalifanaticMar 11, 2007
By J. Hobbs
Slightly bitter, slightly depressed; but all in all, a great set from Zach. Some of the interstitial pieces don't work as well as you'd want, and he flubs a couple lines here and there, but either you love Zach's work or you don't.

Haven't laughed this hard in so long!Jun 10, 2011
By jkbMN
Often rambling, and occasionally giving the feeling that some of the improvisation was totally scripted, this is a delightful journey into the mind and comic timing of Galifianakis.
I was out of breath from laughing when he took on an older audience member (it could just as well have been me)!
I'd call this a must-see for anyone who enjoys this type of off-beat humor.
