About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like celebrity documentaries with warmth, nostalgia, and personal history, especially if Arnold or What's My Name: Muhammad Ali appealed to you; Not for you if host-driven detours and a long runtime sound tiring.
Pros: engrossing life story; moving love story; rich archival material | Cons: too much host focus; repetitive at times; uneven chronology
