He won Grammys and an Academy Award; wrote many #1 songs; starred in a Brian DePalma movie; put out his own hit records and albums; was a guest on The Tonight Show fifty times; and is the president of ASCAP...and you might not have heard of him. In the 1970's, Paul Williams was the singer / actor / songwriter that emotional, alienated teenage boys all over the world wanted to be, a sex symbol before MTV, when sex symbols could be 5"2 and sing songs about loneliness with the Muppets. A wistful musical journey that will re-introduce a new generation to Williams' soulful classics, Paul Williams: Still Alive is the charmingly self-narrated story of Stephen Kessler's lifelong obsession with the former superstar-and what happens when the nostalgic filmmaker finally catches up with him. -- (C) Abramorama

Review For Movie Paul Williams Still Alive
The insightful, rueful, intensely self-critical and self-aware Williams delivers a harsh look at his own accomplishments, as well as at Kessler's process.
Richard Brody-New Yorker What makes Paul Williams Still Alive successful is the relationship between Kessler and Williams.
Linda Holmes-NPR For all of Kessler's annoying traits, he did get results. Perhaps a different approach wouldn't have yielded a film as satisfying as "Paul Williams Still Alive."
Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic The resulting documentary, at once endearing and dull, does indeed tell us about Williams, but it also tells us perhaps too much about Kessler.
Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times Filmmaker Stephen Kessler's sheer delight in following around his boyhood idol, whose music framed much of the '70s when Kessler was a lad in Queens, is thoroughly infectious.
Betsy Sharkey-Los Angeles Times An entertaining, emotionally inspired stroll down memory lane -- that is, for Kessler.
Gary Goldstein-Los Angeles Times Always intriguing and often quite funny, Paul Williams Still Alive is exactly the documentary this celebrity deserves. It's respectful of his extraordinary accomplishments while giving us an accurate portrait of who Williams is today.
Mike McGranaghan-Aisle Seat Almost in spite of itself, this unfocused documentary accomplishes its main goal.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com That's what makes the film so endearing - it captures that strange relationship between film subject and filmmaker, something that is carefully hidden in most documentaries.
Chelsey Grasso-Paste Magazine Too bad the film's obscure star will be a hard sell to non-music geeks or anyone born after 1965, because this film's a blast.
Inkoo Kang-Boxoffice Magazine Charming, poignant and very funny, Paul Williams: Still Alive is a wonderful testament to a truly gifted artist for whom the end of fame was not remotely the end for him.
Diva Velez-TheDivaReview.com It's an interesting look at celebrities and the filmmakers that try to document them.
Austin Kennedy-Sin Magazine Short and snappy, Paul Williams: Still Alive adroitly juxtaposes an archaic form of fame with one of its practitioners' present-day survival.
Vadim Rizov-GreenCine Even with flaws, Kessler does manage to paint a portrait of a talented guy who seems to be a lot happier with his life now having finally found himself.
Neil Rosen-NY1-TV The footage in Paul Williams Still Alive-old and new-is highly entertaining, even moving. But it's as though Kessler recorded the DVD commentary track first, then made the movie.
