Description
I'm from Hollywood documents gonzo performance artist Andy Kaufman's hilarious introduction into the world of bigtime professional wrestling. In the years before his premature demise, Kaufman concentrated all of his creative energy on defeating Memphis pro wrestler Jerry 'The King' Lawler, effectively ruining his own TV career in the process. This fascinating documentary follows Kaufman as he pursues Lawler, taunting him on the Letterman show, threatening lawsuits, and hiring professional thugs-all in is bizarre and hysterically funny quest to put Lawler out of commission. Features interviews with Marilu Henner, Tony Danza, Bob Zmuda, wrestling commentator Lance Russell and Jerry Lawler himself. Includes never before seen long-missing footage. 1989; 61 minutes.
