    • Weird: The Al Yankovic Story (2022)

      Both are fictionalized films, with Weird Al's early career, including the inspiration for his songs, as the subject, but with notable differences. While "Compleat Al" is a "mockumentary" that parodies the biographical documentary, and also acts as a showcase for Yankovic's music videos, "Weird" is a parody of the biographical drama or "biopic". Unlike "Compleat Al", Yankovic does not play himself in "Weird".
