Rating: 3.5/5 --
The tone is buoyant, upbeat, optimistic and glamorous, as, it appears, White has been all his rather fabulous life.

White now is in pretty bad shape and doesn't really possess the mental or physical capacity to engage in long conversations about his life and times.

Rating: 4/5 --
There's a certain suspicion about hieroglyphic documentary portraits of individuals of a generational span, but The Last Impresario constantly surprises both by what it is and what it's not.

Product Description:
Gracie Otto's documentary THE LAST IMPRESARIO profiles Michael White, a British man in his seventies who has spent his entire career rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous while he helped produce a number of movies and theatrical productions. He also developed a reputation as a high-stakes gambler and all-around entertaining fellow. The filmmakers talk to some of White's many well-known friends including Naomi Watts, Yoko Ono, and John Cleese.
