The survivors are especially effective at recalling the "life is a cabaret'' momentum of the period.

The Fabulous Allan Carr is a loving showbiz documentary, shedding some light on one of the most prominent Hollywood figures of a bygone era - even if it doesn't dig as deep as you would like it to.

Dishonest, incomplete, shallow hagiography. Gushing gushing gushing praise for a man who clearly--despite what this "documentary" asserts--was exhaustingly over the top and narcissistic. Kept waiting for the honesty to come but it's just a huge boring brag sheet.

It's incredibly entertaining spotlighting someone you probably never knew existed if you're younger than 55. It's topical and doesn't seem to paint a full picture but as already stated, it's very entertaining.
