“I saw this film at the Jewish Film Festival in San Francisco. I thought it was hilarious and enjoyed it far more than I expected. I remembered David Steinberg from stand-up on Johnny Carson and the Smothers Brothers but my memories were vague. This film not only highlights Davidu0026#39;s personal story but also highlights excerpts from his comedy routines. I had forgotten how good his material was! Perhaps I didnu0026#39;t understand it all as a child but I certainly appreciate it now. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHis significance in comedy history (and Carly Simonu0026#39;s music) was quite interesting. This is the kind of film that makes you want to tell your friends u0026quot;Did you know…..?u0026quot; They probably donu0026#39;t know many of the juicy tidbits you will learn in this documentary. If you like comedy and politics of the 1960u0026#39;s and 1970u0026#39;s, you will like this film…”
