Buzz

This is one of the best docs I have seen in a long time!

The scenes of the marriage falling apart (or did it?) were stunningly intimate. I loved how muddy and messy everything was, with both Buzz and Lisa trying to figure out not only how to deal with Buzz's sexuality, but even to find the right words to describe it!

The documentary is told with gripping veriteé footage. Rather than "experts" opining on these issues, you see real people struggling through them.

I don't get reviewers (fortunately not many here) saying this is shoving a perspective down our throat. All good art and literature and films help us to be empathetic with someone's experience, and that's what this does, incredibly well. You always have the choice not to watch the film - but you should.

Enjoyed the film thoroughly. The subject matter is timely, yet Buzz's age points to the universal qualities of being human. Where does one fit?

Buzz's bona fide success and competency line up nicely with his 'alter' self. Intriguing and intimate portrait. For me, fun.

I found Buzz to be an insightful look into one man's struggle to find not only meaning, but recognition of his identity. Given his reputation as a writer, I applaud Buzz for his honesty. Good film.

Buzz Bissinger is a captivating character with real human struggles. This film is an enlightening look into the broad spectrum of human sexuality. It wrestles with the complex ideas of living one's true sexual self while retaining the security and deep love of a traditional marriage. It's not clear if Buzz has figured it out, but the film nonetheless leaves you hopeful that this man is smart enough to get it right.

The fact that the backdrop of this film is Buzz's collaboration with Caitlyn Jenner gives us a powerful touchstone for his own struggle with identity, while also framing his path in the larger context of how far we've come in understanding gender and sexuality as a society.
