My overall impression

Bill is a master storyteller whose performance makes excellent use of his in- demand voice, his voice-over skills, and his ability to create fascinating characters with accents, expressions, and small nuances that have you believing that one minute he’s Russian, the next minute Minnesotan, and the next minute he’s Ethel Mertz. Or Desi Arnaz. There’s not a moment in the just-shy of an hour story of Bobby the Bell Boy where he lets you off the hook. It’s a story that captures Hollywood, human possibility, human frailties, and the audiences’ rapt attention. I loved every minute, and so did the 9 guests I took to see it!
