The Zen Diaries of Garry Shandling
That was one of the most emotional biographical documentaries I had ever seen. Judd Apatow did a wonderful job directing this documentary on one of my favorite comedians ever, Garry Shandling. There's something about him that I can relate to a lot, his neuroticism, he was always worried about something. It's a shame he died long before I even cared about comedy.
