George Carlins's American Dream is a two parter and beyond riveting. George Carlin is my favorite stand up of all time. HBO Docs have been killing it, and with Judd Apatow directing, i was stoked. It chronicles his childhood, his early days in comedy, his golden era, his movies & TV shows, his revival and everything in between. The talking heads in this speak with passion & love, and you can tell this is a doc made with heart. Besides the heart, there are ideas, and Carlin's ideas are perfect for today's climate. There is a montage at the end of his rants with various news clips from the past few years and that alone in worth it. If you're a Carlin mark than this is must see!
