传奇女喜剧家、电视人Joan Rivers生平纪录片
This documentary follows one year in the life of Joan Rivers, who sees herself first and foremost as an actress, with her life as a comedienne/writer just an extension of being an actress. Now at age 75, Rivers has faced her ups and downs in her forty plus year career, the year leading up to filming being a down compared to what she would have wanted, which is a calendar full of engagements with several engagements each day. That want is in part to support her opulent personal lifestyle, but is more a need to bolster her own sense of self-worth as a basically insecure person who is probably best known now for her overuse of cosmetic surgery rather than her professional work. She feels that Kathy Griffin, who she admires, is now getting all the engagements she would have gotten in her prime. During this year, Rivers is seen going from engagement to engagement, some big - such as a Kennedy Center Honors for George Carlin, a double bill with Don Rickles in New York, and her own celebrity roast on Comedy Central (which she really isn't looking forward to) - and some not so big. But perhaps the most important of these to her is the opening of her new play, which she is testing in Edinburgh, important in that she wants to be seen as an actress; and an appearance on a celebrity version of The Apprentice (2004), important in that it will mark her first appearance on NBC since being blacklisted by them for her disagreement with Johnny Carson over the start of her own talk show on rival Fox back in 1989. Through the year, several long time supporters are at her side, including daughter Melissa Rivers, personal assistant 'Jocelyn Pickett', and manager Bill Sammeth, but all is not smooth even in this part of her life.
人物其实很有魅力，可是这个片子剪的太破碎了，像是把素材都堆在一起
老太太牛逼
79/100
我是看E的fashion police喜欢上的这个老太太，有一次说一个女性的裙子像vitamin Pee 把我笑岔气 这部片子有些地方很感人 很真实
On the plastic surgery book. Interviewer: "But don't you think women should be loved for their inside? Their vulnerabilities, their humor, their intelligence?" Joan: "I, I just want to be loved."
joan rivers。这个名字就值五星了。
Love her
"fuck you. I'm still opening doors."
其实不是喜剧，只是每段话都那么好笑……希望在我老了以后也能有这样的力气去生活～
The documentary was mediocrely made, but she is a spectacular woman. You may not like her, but you have to respect her. / Flo Fox触目惊心的年华老去
11届马克·吐温奖上，到Joan上场前她跟着电视对几个人做了简短评价，很随机，也很好笑，提到自己时，她说ok。她一直很够种，这部片里展示出来的脆弱会让人更爱她。（炮仗型人格很难让人一直爱的，应了片名A Piece of Work
老太太为了赚几个钱也挺不容易的。其实就仨字儿：豁出去
老太太的段子偶尔还是有点搞笑的，但是大部分的套路我都不太喜欢。
this is a "passion" story.
!no one lives like she does, I think only queen of England" 她的能量像个黑洞一样深不可测。
