Review of Conan O'Brien Can't Stop (2011) by Rainnip — 23 Jun 2011
STANDING OVATION at The South by Southwest Film Fest where I first saw this fab doc!
The energy is amazing. Coco is on fire! Fueled by what must have been his ire at being summarily dismissed by execs at NBC (all of whom have since been fired) after only 7 months at The Tonight Show, he tears it up both onstage and off.
But there is no pity. You see what he's like when he's "on" as well as when he's grumpy. And it ain't all roses.
Conan has a wacky relationships with his ever-present assistant and Jeff, his long-time friend and producer.
He even punches a writer! This documentary provides an unflinching view of what it is like to be a very gifted albeit tortured soul.
