You will probably like this somewhat abstract bio of Doug Kenney, one of the founders, original writer and editor of the hilarious satirical magazine "National Lampoon." NL had a great run in the 70's, an era of terrific and edgy satirical humor. The 'Poon would spawn an entire generation of comedy that still continues, unfortunately it hasn't been done as well as most current so-called counter culture comedy primarily serves as a propaganda wing to promote a left wing agenda, while Kenney and the NL were truly equal opportunity satirists...they went after everyone.
Kenney is best known for writing "Animal House" and "Caddyshack" two exceptionally creative and funny movies of the late 70's. It made him very wealthy but apparently it didn't buy happiness. It's a mostly lighthearted bio, amusing but not loaded loaded with gut busting lines and gags like the films he scripted-although they do try too hard with some scenes that are obviously preposterous BS. If you have no interest in the era or the subject matter you will probably wonder why a bio was made of such a self-indulgent and pretentiousness narcissist.
