George Carlin: The Real George Carlin(1973)
George Carlin: The Real George Carlin Synopsis
Carlin recorded his only network special, The Real George Carlin, in 1973. Featuring bits about growing up in New York, the material is neither profane nor squeaky clean – but has a slice of life element obviously lacking in the cuddly Carlin of the '60s. There’s a gold star moment of longhaired George mocking a cardboard cutout of the suit and tie version, and so take-em-or-leave-them musical appearances by BB King and Kris Kristofferson. Certainly, worth a modern glance.
George Carlin: The Real George Carlin (1973) is a comedy, tv movie and documentary film directed by Clark Jones, released on August 1, 1973 with a runtime of 50m. It stars George Carlin, B.B. King, Rita Coolidge and Kris Kristofferson.
