Oh, I gotta see this movie...

Just checked out A.O. Scott's review of "Comedian," the new documentary starring Jerry Seinfeld. While I was, and remain, somewhat impatient with Seinfeld--infatuation with trifles is no way to live your life, no matter how sharply written it is--this documentary sounds fascinating. I was a fly on the wall in a room full of comics chatting backstage, when I worked with Alan King on a PBS special, and it was incredible to get a glimpse inside that bizarre, always insecure, equally invigorating and grueling lifestyle.



If anybody sees it, write me what you thought, and I'll post it.
