Larry Charles<\/a><\/strong> is the director of Religulous<\/a><\/strong>, a new documentary in which US comedian Bill Maher<\/a> explores the subject of religion.<\/p>\n

It sees them\u00a0travel to numerous religious places, such as\u00a0Jerusalem<\/a>, the\u00a0Vatican<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Salt Lake City<\/a>, where they interview believers from a variety of backgrounds and groups including a former member of\u00a0Jews for Jesus<\/a>,\u00a0Christians<\/a>,\u00a0Muslims<\/a>, former\u00a0Mormons<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Hasidic Jews<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Previously, he was writer on TV shows such as Seinfeld<\/a> and Mad About You<\/a> and more recently has directed episodes of\u00a0Curb Your Enthusiasm<\/a>\u00a0and the Borat movie<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I spoke with Larry last October at the London Film festival where we discussed Religulous and the ideas behind it.<\/p>\n
