George on George

This documentary consists entirely of a single interview with George Carlin where he discusses his life and work. He goes into great detail about his early years before he was famous. This is not a strict biographical documentary. You would be better off reading his Wikipedia page for that information. This film is much better than that.

George Carlin explains in his own words where he came from, what motivated him, and why he is who he is. Carlin reveals a much more sensitive and thoughtful side of himself. His demeanor stands in stark contrast to his angry stage persona. This film was surprisingly touching.
