Inside Anthony Bourdain’s ‘manic’ final days and public ‘humiliation’
NY Post
“What the f – – k am I doing here?” Anthony Bourdain’s unmistakable voice comes in over the rousing opening credit montage of the new documentary “Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain,” in theaters Friday. “One minute I was standing next to a deep fryer. The next I was watching the sun set over the Sahara.”
It’s a jarring moment. Just over three years after Bourdain was found dead by suicide at age 61 in a France hotel room by his good friend Eric Ripert, he is returned to us in voiceover. Although now we know he is a uniquely unreliable narrator. “Here’s a little preemptive truth-telling,” Bourdain’s eerie narration continues. “There’s no happy ending.”More Related News
