Jerry Before Seinfeld (2017)

Jerry returns to the stage that launched his career, telling jokes as comfortable as slippers while discussing his family origins and comedic sensibilities. We hear stories and see home movies, but also Jerry crouched over a sidewalk, paved for a solid block, with handscrawled legal-pad pages containing every comedic routine (or "bit") he has ever written. Here is a man who is the king of comedy, eminently likable, and still going strong. Watch this and enjoy! 4 stars. (10-2-2017)
