I'm Broken....

I have just watched this very well made documentary about a man I thought I knew, I knew he was a kind and generous loving family man, a proud Canadian, a hero to some a comedy genius to others but it turns out he was so much more than that. Watch it, if you liked John Candy you will feel the same way I did, if you didn't know of him watch it anyway it and you will love him for what he was........a giant loveable comedy legend whose light will never go out and a genuinely loveable gentle man. I like him.

Heartfelt Valentine Candy

I remember standing in my garage, a radio on, wondering if Kurt Cobain's Rome overdose was going to be fatal (big Nirvana fan back then)... and the good news was, he was alive... which wouldn't last, of course, but... what was said right after that was the kind of sadness that stays with you and is far more timeless than Cobain...John Candy was dead...This is a good documentary, heartfelt and kindhearted, but I wish they did a deeper dive into his earlier performances, or at least the fact he was actually in some movies before even SCTV, which made him well-known before becoming a movie star...He had a speaking role in CLASS of 44, which was the early 70's, a bigger part in the thriller THE SILENT PARTNER and two low-budget comedies with his first straight man... no not Tom Hanks or Eugene Levy but Lawrence Dane, a character-actor only remembered for being in a few David Cronenberg movies later on...John Candy did a lot of things, and some are considered bad, but I don't consider HARRY CRUMB a bomb as they tried insinuating here... It wasn't perfect but he was great in the movie... I enjoyed it... They could have centered more on the horrible NOTHING BUT TROUBLE, although that wouldn't have been for Dan Aykroyd, who provides good commentary throughout...Other special guest stars were okay, Macauly Culkin was really special since UNCLE BUCK is, in my opinion, the epitome of John Candy's best work... and you don't see Culkin interviewed a lot since he's become a kind of recluse...But did there need so much Conan O'Brien? At one point they actually went back and did a kind of mini-bio on Conan, which was strange... he met Candy one time...For the most part, though, we have famous people who worked with John, like his SCTV cohorts as well as other Second City people...Starting out with Bill Murray doing that thing that post TIGER KING documentaries do... showing the actor talking to the unseen director before the actual interview...Thankfully, this is not that kind of new-fangled doc, but is really something his lookalike son and daughter provided as a kind of Valentine that, no matter how lightweight they go to celebrate such a literally heavyweight talent, is moving enough to pass the time with a smile...Candy was a unique kind of comic actor... He was edgy enough to not be too happy-go-lucky mainstream, and he was optimistic enough not to be one of those self-loathing neurotic types...Overall, he was just who he was, and, I guess, for this particular showcase, that's JUST GOOD enough.
