It's not where you go. It's what you leave behind...Chef, writer, adventurer, provocateur: Anthony Bourdain lived his life unabashedly. Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain is an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at how an anonymous chef became a world-renowned cultural icon. From Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Morgan Neville, this unflinching look at Bourdain reverberates with his presence, in his own voice and in the way he indelibly impacted the world around him.

Hodnotenia a recenzie

Fakes are a no no. I want real all the way. I love Anthony! He's taught me so much. I'm still missed him, obviously. I read Fakes included and still went for it. Oh well.

Interviews with friends and those who worked closely with Bourdain do not uncover the deeper question of why he took his life. But the documentary tells the story of his fame, travels, and the changes that happen as a result. The film also surfaces his life long emotional struggles. The audience is, to great effect, left to draw their own conclusions. Well directed and edited, Anthony's story is inspiring. Despite his sudden and devastating death, it's hard not to conclude that he lived fully and well.

He is most definitely missed, and I'm sorry he couldn't get past his pain. He definitely inspired me! In many ways. Thank you, Anthony. Thank you for everything you had to give.
