Medusa: Dare to Be Truthful

Medusa: Dare to Be Truthful was a mockumentary film starring comedienne Julie Brown as the title character, with actress Kathy Griffin and actor Donal Logue in supporting roles.

The film lampoons the legitimate documentary picture "Madonna: Truth or Dare," (known as "In Bed With Madonna" in all countires besides the United States.) In the original, pop superstar Madonna allowed cameras to follow her around for a no-holds-barred peek into her life during her "Blonde Ambition Tour." In this spoof, Brown plays Medusa, a controlling, hyper-sexual blonde bombshell who has allowed a documentary crew to follow her on her "Blonde Leading the Blonde Tour".

The film, about one hour long and originally produced as a Showtime television special, goes to great pains to recreate costumes, sets and situations that occurred in the original documentary.
