Overview
There was no one quite like Anthony Bourdain. Famous for his roguish persona and insatiable appetite for food, travel and life, he burst onto the scene in 2000 with his frank and funny memoir Kitchen Confidential, before becoming a household name as the host of food and travel shows Parts Unknown and No Reservations. His tragic suicide in 2018 sent shockwaves throughout the world, and left a hole in the hearts of those closest to him. With Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain, Oscar-winning director Morgan Neville (20 Feet from Stardom) delivers an intimate portrait of this one-of-a-kind chef, writer and provocateur, combining a wealth of archival material and interviews to celebrate an extraordinary life.
Why You Should See This Film
Charting Bourdain’s rise to fame from the early days of Kitchen Confidential, all the way to his difficult final chapter, Roadrunner benefits from the sheer amount of material left behind from an extensively documented life. With home movies, rare behind-the-scenes footage, and interviews with everyone from David Chang to Iggy Pop, this documentary provides a rich insight into Bourdain’s unique spirit and undeniable impact.
