A Life in Pieces
(RECOMMENDED) There is more tragedy than joy in J. R. Cutler’s sad yet entertaining documentary about comedian John Belushi. The movie effectively shows his life story in fragments, although it seems unnecessarily more hyperactive than the man himself, if that is possible. Audio tapes, photos, and many interviews with famous friends and loved ones are interspersed with his personal letters, stylized animation, and home videos. The highs are there as well as the low of his short life in this well-researched film. (He died at the age of 33.) Classic bits from his films and SNL skits are evidence of his unique talent and make his loss even more poignant as the documentary strangely builds to a powerful indictment about the perils of instant fame, fortune, and excessive drug abuse. Ultimately, Belushi is a loving testament to a comic icon whose legend lasted longer than his brief but memorable career. (GRADE: B)
Good Career Highlights & Interviews; Treads Light on Addictions
“Belushi,” the latest documentary about the legendary actor/comedian from director R.J. Cutler, has some interesting highlights of John Belushi’s early life and rise to fame starting with Second City to The Lemmings, followed by his fast heights to stardom with Saturday Night Live, “Animal House” and The Blues Brothers, but it felt as though the film only lightly brushed over his struggles with addiction and inner demons. The film does include some good interviews with Belushi’s wife Judy, friend and former SNL alumni Dan Aykroyd, the late Harold Ramis and late actress Carrie Fisher.
