JOAN RIVERS: A PIECE OF WORK

June 8th, 2010

JOAN RIVERS: A PIECE OF WORK- 2010. Premise by Netflix. “Documentarians Ricki Stern and Annie Sundberg provide an uncompromising glimpse into the personal and professional life of comedian and red-carpet mainstay Joan Rivers, a woman clinging stubbornly and steadfastly to the pop-culture bandwagon. Stern and Sundberg — whose previous film, The Devil Came on Horseback, covered the Darfur genocide — take a no-less-intensive approach to their subject here, taking a hard look at fame’s bitter toll.” Fair reviews and good reviews in equal number.

12/10– Very good documentary about the diva, the ups and downs of her career and her need to continue and all costs. Definitely recommended. TRDB. Netflix.
