Audience Member The secret life of manic depressive (2006): Stephen Fry the celebrated Englishman is a manic depressive and it takes a lot of courage to come out publicly let alone come out to the wide world in a documentary but this is a great effort by the comedian and he charts not just his battle with this disorder but its widespread effects and the ways one can try to work around it. Many are still confused as to what depression is and how devastating it can be- This is the documentary to show them. (An honest look at the terrible disease of the mind-depression). Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Insightful, honest, realistic, important. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member An interesting, well made and well edited documentary. Recommended to everyone, especially ones who are skeptical of whether mental illnesses and depression are self-inflicted or actually real (I define that intrinsically inescapable phenomenon.) By the way, Stephen Fry is great as he usually is. I know that's why this documentary gets its recognition. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A must see for everyone Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member This is extremely interesting, well put-together, and informative. I recommend it. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Don't be put off by the subject matter, this stuff is easily as fascinating as it is unsettling. Stephen Fry is an amazing, amazing man. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
