00:00Making people laugh.
00:01It's a world that I want to be involved in.
00:08I said, God, you can do anything you want to me.
00:13Just please make me famous.
00:15I got a phone call.
00:17Hello.
00:18And I instantly knew my whole life was going to change.
00:22But God did not forget the other part.
00:26All great stories have comedy and tragedy in them.
00:30And that certainly was Matthew's story.
00:33I was extremely happy when I got famous.
00:37Then it's like, uh-oh, this didn't fix what's inside me.
00:40This didn't do what I thought it was going to do.
00:42My brother would talk about that feeling of emptiness or loneliness
00:46that he couldn't quite fill.
00:48He spent $7 million trying to get sober.
00:52That's how seriously he took his disease.
00:54I had people telling me to stop, say,
00:57you're going to kill yourself if you keep going like this.
01:00And I just didn't know how.
01:02The world is saying goodbye to a beloved actor
01:06and one of our best friends.
01:12So this is the funny part of the documentary.
01:16As Matthew's buddy for 40 years,
01:19he would definitely want everyone to talk about how great he was.
01:23He meant so much in so many ways.
01:27Matthew recognized this is an area where he could really make a huge difference.
01:32I wanted to introduce myself and say that my name is Matthew and I'm an alcoholic.
01:36He saved my life right there in that moment. I believe that.
01:41How funny he was.
01:43When he made people laugh, it made him feel good.
01:47To have that connection with an audience is a wonderful, sacred thing.
01:54And how we miss him.
01:57I miss you guys. I miss all of you.
02:17And, but I was so happy.
02:18I miss you guys.
02:21My name is Matthew and I will guide you for today.
02:21And now I'm getting the opportunity for you.
02:22And now I see all of you in the next day.
02:23they're like,
02:23you're like,
02:24we're just gonna go out.
02:25You can have to go out.
