So, 'Playing Patti' is this offbeat documentary that dives into the life of Patti Cohoon, a child star who hit the jackpot too early. It’s got this darkly comedic vibe that really sets it apart. The pacing is a bit meandering but in a way that reflects Patti’s own chaotic journey through fame and loss. You get these candid moments where she grapples with her past achievements and personal demons, which feels raw and authentic. It’s an interesting exploration of the pressures of early success, and you can’t help but feel a bit of that nostalgia for the 80s and 90s TV landscape. The practical effects aren’t really the focus here, but they do add a quirky touch that complements her story well.
