This past week, as I was freezing my hindquarters off on a business trip to Columbus, Ohio, I was able to catch the HBO documentary on Don Rickles Mr. Warmth. It’s quite good, and, seeing as it’s directed by John Landis, I’m not surprised (though one wonders if Rickles made a Vic Morrow joke when he and Landis first met to plan this – no, I don’t wonder, I’m sure he did).
Mark Evanier liked it as much as I did, and seeing as he’s seen Rickles live a couple of times, has an interesting take on Rickles’ career. Read it here.
