Enjoyable documentary charting the life of Reynolds who, lest we forget, was for some years probably the biggest star on the planet totally eclipsing anything we have today. What is so interesting is how very good he was holding court and being kind to people possibly at the expense of his career. In addition, like so many famous people he was heavily influenced by a tough and seemingly rather a cold, loveless father who Reynolds adored.
Obviously as a good looking hugely talented star his years where he was making many hits was a happy time and clearly Reynolds was a charming, witty and generous man. It is sad then that his career largely fell apart and his many stunt injuries resulted in his need for drugs for so long and he seemed to just lose his way - a much loved man whose life came bar the love he had for his son, to a very sad conclusion.
