Life is Excellent Trailers

David Robilliard was a talented British artist who died in 1988, aged just 36 years old, one of the many young gay men of his generation lost to AIDS. In this emotional documentary, actor and contemporary art devotee Russell Tovey embarks on a quest to bring the life and work of Robilliard back to its rightful prominence. The result is a film that gathers together the artist’s close friends, collaborators, and colleagues to remember and celebrate a remarkable talent. Through their memories and Tovey’s devotion to Robilliard’s work, we build a picture of a young dynamic artist full of courage and wit whose legacy deserves to shine.

Reviews
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
