Michael J Fox talks about his life, career, and struggle to with Parkinson's. It's striking to see clips of the younger Fox running, skateboarding, wise-cracking cut in with the current Fox who struggles to take a few steps without falling or who gets tired just trying to get out a few sentences.
He was diagnosed with Parkinson's in his late 20s, keeping it a secret for 9 years from his co-workers and the public. While working on Spin City the symptoms became too hard to control or hide. They show clips where you can see housing a prop or crossing his arms to hide his tremors. I've liked Fox in several things but can't say I'm a huge fan but it was an interesting doc. He was honest about his faults but for the most seems like a very likeable guy. It's not as depressing as one might imagine. He has a loving family and the resources to have things like a person physical therapist. One thing they didn't address is why or how did he get Parkinson's at such a young age.
