Matt Roush says...
Few child stars had as rapid a rise to fame and as precipitous a fall as Diff’rent Strokes star Gary Coleman, the subject of a 90-minute documentary describing his life as a “cautionary tale.” Coleman suffered through his brief life with a kidney disease that stunted his growth and gave him a childlike appearance even into adulthood, when he went to court against his adoptive parents and business adviser over misappropriating $770,000 of his earnings. The special features interviews with his co-star Todd Bridges, his estranged parents and his ex-wife, promising new details about his health issues and his death in 2010 at 42 after a fall.
