George Carlin Interview

A comprehensive interview with the iconic comedian George Carlin. He recounts his early career from childhood dreams of becoming an actor like Danny Kaye all the way up to his 1960’s transformation into a leading voice of the counterculture and then he details the evolution of his writing and finding his true voice on stage in the 1990’s. For Carlin fans (if you’re not what’s wrong with you and why are you watching this?) the final ten minutes is remarkably touching as he chokes up discussing plans he was forming to star in a one man Broadway show which never came to be and then reflects over his successful career and how wonderfully fulfilling his life has been.
