CGiii Comment

Johnny Weir is/was his own worst enemy...massively talented, madly inconsistent.

He has now retired...so, this film serves as a reminder of his talent, his petulance and his hideous hairdos...

One for the skaters...!


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

Figure skater Johnny Weir makes a name for himself as an Olympic champion on the ice and a controversial celebrity in the tabloids. Director David Barba shadows Weir for one year, documenting the competitions, training and inner turmoil that make up his daily existence. Weir refuses, in interviews, … Moreto answer questions regarding his rumored homosexuality, only fueling speculation about his private life. But Barba's film focuses on Weir's quest to once again prove himself at the Olympics.
