Stu's Show
Directed by C.J Willis
Written by Documentary
Starring Stu Shostak
Released May 2nd, 2022
Stu’s Show begins as one kind of documentary and ends as something completely different, richer, and more thoughtful. What looks like the story of a Hollywood outsider who became an unlikely ally and friend to the stars of the Golden Age of Television, slowly morphs into a harrowing story about our modern Healthcare system and the people on the fringes of society who are forced to struggle and risk death to get the care they need from an often uncaring and indifferent healthcare system.
Stu Shostak is a boomer, he grew up at a time when television was new and parents moving into the working world created a generation of kids whose babysitters were I Love Lucy reruns and family meals were held in front of televisions with Leave it to Beaver and My Three Sons providing the soundtrack. Family time was TV time and Stu Shostak became obsessed with the stars of the so-called Golden Age of Television.
