The Iceman Goeth recounts how Ian Holm has actually experienced the actor's worst nightmare more than once in real life in front of a full house.
This play by Steve Jacobi tells the tale through interviews with Holm and flashback dramatizations. This reviewer loves particularly loves The Iceman Cometh (obviously) which adds to the appeal since several lines from the great O'Neill play are included.
The play documentary is also little inconclusive feeling. Did Holm actually never appear on stage again, only on film, after the events of 1976? That is the implication.
The backstage gossip and banter is fun to listen to. It's is a fast paced interesting entertainment.

I have photoshop but don't know the ins and outs of improving old photos beyond basic sharpening and "autofix"! Any tips much appreciated.
