The Life of Reilly

If you're a fan of Charles Nelson Reilly (and really- who isn't?) you should watch The Life of Reilly.

CNR had a one man show called Save It For The Stage that was taped during his final performance. He talks about his childhood mostly which surprisingly is interesting. A lot of times when I read an autobiography I skip right to when they get to Hollywood and start sleeping with people.

When I saw CNR at a deli years ago, I remember being sad that he was alone. But according to The Life of Reilly he had many friends, one of which was Burt Reynolds who gave him a house in Florida.

CNR died in 2007.
