Matthew Perry was frank and openhearted about the struggles with addiction that led to his death in 2023. Most memorably, he delved into his substance abuse issues in Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing, his deeply personal memoir, in which he wrote of that jet ski accident that saw him hooked on painkillers and everything that happened afterwards.
Now, released almost exactly three years after he died, a new Netflix documentary sheds further light on the actor’s life and death through the intimate testimonials of his friends and his younger sister Mia Perry Bowick.
