With "The Life of Reilly" directors Barry Poltermann and Frank Anderson turn their cameras on the one man stage show of nearly forgotten 1970’s television fixture Charles Nelson Reilly. The result: one of the most acclaimed performance films of all time. The cliché goes that truth is stranger than fiction, and in this case, it is also funnier and more heartbreaking. Reilly, famous for his game show innuendos and "X Files" guest appearances, takes us through his bizarre, star-studded, tragic, hilarious, and ultimately amazing life with a potent blend of tenderness and quick one-liners.
