Book Reviews of Freak: a semi-demi-quasi-pseudo autobiography
Book Review: awfully sad for a comedy
Summary: 2 Stars
This is supposed to be a quasi-autobiographic look back at John Leguizamo's past. I know it is not to be taken literally. I know humor is born of pain. Still, I thought that this funny, funny guy let it all hang out in an odd way. I know it was greatly exaggerated, but I felt like I was the only sober one in a bar at 2:30 a.m., and there was this crying drunk hanging all over me, telling me his tale of woe. I'm not against pathos, it just struck me as a kind of strange rendition of the celebrity confessional. Still love him, though, and even bought another one of his books, which I like much better.
