I'M FROM HOLLYWOOD 1998 (YOUTUBE)

Yet another great documentary.

This 60 minutes is the most fun a wrestling fan can have in these times.

It details the rise of comedy legend Andy Kaufman into the world of professional wrestling, and the classic run he had with Memphis Wrestling during the 80's with Jerry Lawler.

Memphis wrestling was an excellent product to begin with, but it really hit it's peak in the 80's and this put it in the stratosphere. Kaufman REALLY knew how to sell the heel gimmick.

The story is told by some of his Taxi co-stars, Robin Williams and those in the wrestling business including Lawler andannouncer Lance Russell. Kaufman was a genius and he knew it.

If you're a rwestling fan from back in the day this is a great trip down memory lane. If you're not familiar with this then watch and see how things used to be and how much fun it all was.

I cannot recommend this enough. One of the best ever.
