I never appreciated Joan Rivers' take on things until a few years ago. Was too wet behind the ears to get it, I suppose. It scared me a little. Now, though, as a calloused old codger, I enjoy her approach. As edgy as Don Rickles but less off-putting, while having more depth, and being more natural and sincere.
Am looking forward to the film by veteran documentary filmmakers Ricki Stern and Anne Sundberg, 'Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work'. Love the title -- a nice allusion to both her career longevity and her numerous nips and tucks. The footage I've seen hooked me.
Opens limited June 11.

I’ve been hearing nothing but great reviews on this. I saw on Indiewire last week that named it one of the 25 must see films for this summer. I know it’s coming out in New York but does anyone know of anywhere else it’s playing?
