Tyrus follows the life of Tyrus Wong, 105 year old Chinese-American artist.
Despite his many hardships as an immigrant and outsider, Tyrus thrives as an artist and remains wholly optimistic. He helped create the mystic look of Disney's Bambi, garnering admiration from Disney himself, but he is just as happy to design Christmas cards and menus for his friends when he loses the job.
I think that's what makes the documentary so watchable, because Tyrus himself is so lovable. His narrative is at once complex as it is engaging.
