They used scenes from his films and TV series very competently to illustrate his life.
And especially in Spin City, it's now difficult to discern how he actually struggled with his illness during filming.
And of course, he was incredibly lucky with his wife, initially she postponed her acting career for the sake of her family, and when trouble came, she devoted herself to him altogether. I think that kind of support over the years has been one of the main reasons why he hasn't given up yet.
Well, it's a bit of a pity that we mostly know him only from the films Back to the Future, although he was really good and deservedly loved by Americans in the TV series Family Ties, I only found out about him last December and I can safely recommend it to all fans of M. J. Fox and 80s sitcoms.
Yes, and to talk so openly about his life and illness.
A lump in my throat after watching.
Just 10/10!
It's a very good and sad movie!
I love the Wolf Cub and, of course, Back to the future.
It would be necessary to refresh other films in my head.
But the people here are wonderful
Also, how different his career looks now during the concealment of his illness, his gestures and facial expressions, a completely different rhythm on stage, then it would be hard for people to think that this guy at the peak of fame is very far from true happiness.
What a heartfelt documentary ♥️
