Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work (2010), Ricki Stern
3/5
An interesting documentary about the strange and hilarious Joan Rivers. It focuses mainly on her career and ambition, with only some mentions to her more personal life. It includes some hilarious footage of her stand up comedy and is an interesting portrait of a unique person, that is both talented and utterly vain. The film did seem to lack a strong arc, but this is the more authentic form of documentary, rather than inserting an artificial story arc or journey.
