In My Own Words: Billy Connolly

Neither Parkinson's disease nor age have diminished Billy Connolly's wit or wisdom in this astonishingly intimate self-portrait of the stand-up pioneer turned cultural icon. Told in his own words, with unflinching honesty and access to a superlative archive rather than the oft-told story of his career, we have a surprising and delightful meditation on the joys of growing older and wiser as he looks back on his triumphs and failings as an entertainer, husband and father.
