CGiii Comment

A kind, if somewhat erratic, portrayal of the late Kenny Everett.

It focuses on the relationship between he and his wife...inter-cut with brief comedy sketches, courtesy of the myriad of his created characters.

According to this...Kenny was constantly in character...he was a funny man but this comedy approach reduces the sincerity...surely, he had some serious moments - those, imprudently skipped over in this film.

It is kind, it is entertaining...but, it gives no insight to the real Kenny...the funny man/sad man.
