Anthony Bourdain in Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain (2021)

Review by mro-producer

Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain

8/10

good film, while not complete, it was too long

He floated like a duck on the surface, but underneath the water, he was paddling crazy. As you watch this film, a slow story evolves about a man who falls apart because he was in over his head, but addicted to attention. I wondered at how people around him could let him fall apart like that, I guess because they depended on him, made money off of him.

It was obvious to me that he had an imbalance in his brain and needed medical attention - not just a therapist but a real doctor.

The first part of the film inspired me with creativity and showing off his writing ability. He was truly talented. Too bad he didn't settle down and write more, travel less. Nevertheless, the first part of the film should inspire any artist.

The end of it goes on too long, and it is very sad.

Addendum: they used voice replication technology to recreate Anthony's voice - too much. I wish they would have been more up-front about that fact also. It was not all him. So, that part kinda left a bad taste.....
