Directed by Victoria Duley and written by Adam Meyer, this Tubi Original tells the story of Freddie Prinze. If you were alive in the 1970s, you saw his rise and fall. Today, he may only be known for being the father of Freddie Prinze Jr. This doc gives you the chance to learn just what he meant to the Latin community and how he made such a major career in such a short time.
As someone who deals with anxiety and puts everything into his work, I was really touched by the fact that Freddie did the same and didn't have the tools or the help to fix his issues. I wish that more people remembered him and what his career meant. Hopefully, you'll watch this documentary and learn more about him and take the time to watch some of his comedy routines and maybe an episode of Chico and the Man.
I really enjoyed seeing the pop culture of the 70s in this as well as the meaning of getting to do stand up on Carson. It's another cultural moment that is lost and I worry will be forgotten. Also: If you feel the same kinds of pressure that Freddie did or any mental issues, get help. You're worth it.
