A great deal of material for the film comes from her book, "It's Always Something", published in 1999. In fact, much of the film is narrated by Gilda herself.
Gilda's brother Michael authorized many photographs, home movies, and journal writings, to appear in the film. Throughout the film, many famous comedians of today read passages from her journal.
Within the film are interviews of celebrities who knew and worked with Gilda. One of the notable moments in the film features Martin Short, who met Gilda while doing "Godspell" in Toronto, Canada.
I have been a fan of Gilda Rader for as long as I can remember. I have read her book, and watched several of her performances throughout the years. In this movie I came to know Gilda the person, the woman, the performer, the terrified woman who was losing her battle to cancer.
If you are a fan of Gilda and love her work, you will love this film.
Available on Amazon Prime, YouTube, Google Play, Vudu and Hulu.
