Kevin Smith: Too Fat For 40

Poking fun at his widely publicized clash with Southwest Airlines, writer-director-actor and devoted podcaster Kevin Smith declares himself too fat for his 40th birthday during a two-hour comedy special presented as a Q&A with his rabidly loyal fans. Shot at the Count Basie Theater in Smith’s hometown of Red Bank, New Jersey, the performance foregrounds not only his self-deprecating humor but also his genuine gift for spinning a compelling yarn.
