I’m From Hollywood - 1989 - 7/10

Terrific documentary / satire / sport-a-rama.
Andy Kaufman takes on womenfolk and baits the Memphis crackers in the Inter-Gender Wrestling matches.
From this, the epic feud with Jerry Lawler started.
Wrestling was no less fake in the early 80’s than it is today, but steroid inflated gorks were not the fixtures.
Interviews with Marilu Henner, Robin Williams, Tony Danza.
Also clips of Kaufman urging Southern women to shave their legs, and locals to discover soap and toilet tissue.
Brilliant.
