CGiii Comment

I tweet the Pope everyday demanding excommunication...

Barry Crimmins takes no prisoners, none. His comedy is savage, brutal. He is an angry man, damaged.

Thankfully...he survived...to tell his story. A story that shames mankind.

His friends...love him. You will too.

We all should be thankful to him...his work for child protection is as fervent as it is admirable. Criminal prosecution for child exploitation could - quite easily - be years behind if it wasn't for Mr Crimmins.

A little-known big man outside his arena...this film will help...made by a friend, it is affectionate and - thankfully - it doesn't let itself down by treading on those wearisome egg-shells.

Just like Crimmins, straight-talking - told, just as it is...

A fine document.

The(ir) Blurb...

Barry Crimmins was a volatile but brilliant bar comic who became an honored peace activist and influential political satirist. Famous comedians and others build a picture of a man who underwent an incredible transformation.
