Critic Reviews

Mark Bourne, Film.com
Think of Stephen as a softer, rounder, more existentially content Spalding Gray, or the film as a My Dinner with Andre in a pullover sweater and sensible shoes.

David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews
...it does seem entirely likely that even those who've never heard of [Tobolowsky] will inevitably find themselves won over by the actor's warm, irresistibly inviting persona.
-
Danny Minton, Beaumont Journal
a brilliant, insightful, and hysterical look at one of our great talents.
-
Jeffrey M. Anderson, Combustible Celluloid
According to Brinkmann, Tobolowsky is the greatest storyteller he's ever heard, and after watching this film, that statement is hard to dispute.
-
Kevin Carr, 7M Pictures
As possibly the most recognizable character actor of our generation, Stephen Tobolowsky has given us a gift for his birthday. It's a window into his bizarre, unglamorous life.
