I am your father - Drunk Monk - 11-06-2016
Fanboy documentary about David Prowse. Apparently he is a person non grata with Lucasfilm. The doc tries to restore his dignity, which was never really lost. Prowse did get screwed in some ways - not told Jones would voice over the 1st film, not told the father bit in the second or the death in the 3rd - most of which he learned when he saw the premieres. Due to an alleged leak about Vaders death, he is not invited to any of the official Star Wars events, only other cons. The fanboy director reshoots Vader's unmasking with Prowse but Lucasfilm shuts in down so we only see the showing in Madrid.
It's interesting but could have been told in half the time and the director inserts way too much of himself in it. Too much Lou Ferrigno and Boba Fett (much of the footage comes out of a con that they all attend). Prowse seems like a gentleman. Remind me of Ray Park but a bodybuilder, not a martial artist.
