Watching the first five minutes of this documentary about Michael J Fox, you may be tempted to feel sorry for the Canadian megastar who diagnosed with Parkinson’s aged 29.
We see the Back to the Future actor, now 61, skittering hapharzardly along a street; then, attempting to respond to the friendly words of a fan, going into a gravity-defying spin that leaves him splayed on the ground. But Fox has no time for your pity. As soon becomes clear, he’s after respect and wants to make you laugh. Bullseye!
