RUN TO SE JOAN RIVERS' NEW DOC!
A PIECE IF WORK IS OUTRAGEOUS. LESS COMEDY THAN A GRITTY, BEHIND THE SCENES LOOK AT A TIRELESS COMEDY VETERAN. IT BEGINS WITH A SHOCKING CLOSEUP OF THAT BIZARRE MUG GETTING MADE UP, WHICH SHE CLAIMS SHE MUST DO EVERY MORNING. IT EVEN HUMANIZES THE HILARIOUS, AMPHIBIAN-FACED NUT. I WENT WITH MY MO WHO ISN"T EVEN A JOAN RIVERS FAN AND WE BOTH LOVED IT.
I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH THIS VILLAGE VOICE REVIEW:
"Unlike Mr. Warmth, John Landis's kindred portrait of Don Rickles, Joan Rivers is disappointingly stingy with shtickâso much so that you have to wonder if Rivers intuited that putting too much of her stand-up on film might be a potential threat to her bookings."
PUH-LEASE!HER MATERIAL IS NOT GOING TO THREATEN HER BOOKINGS BECAUSE IT'S ALWAYS HILARIOUS. AND IF YOU SEE IT IN NYC, TRY THE IFC, WHERE THEY HAVE NO TRAILERS!
