Joan Rivers, Phyllis Diller, Kathy Griffin.
The cameras follow trailblazing comic, Joan Rivers, for a year and cover her entire career from her break on the Carson show, to her heartbreak over the suicide of her husband, and her role on Celebrity Apprentice. Rivers reveals her relentless desire to keep working with humor and empathy. Wickedly funny and surprisingly moving, Rivers is once again returned to the spotlight she so richly deserves and cements her reputation as one of stand-up's towering figures.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Who knew? submitted by ingahuff on March 9, 2011, 10:13pm Joan Rivers is one interesting woman. This is a very revealing film that makes you laugh and cheer for her! It is easy to discredit her, but she really was and is a pillar for women in comedy. Plus she never gives up! Courage to laugh at oneself shows remarkable strength. Worth a look and expect to laugh....
