Documentary about comic Gilbert Gottfried

A trailer has been released for Gilbert, a documentary about 'loud and obnoxious' US comic Gilbert Gottfried.

Those speaking about his life and work in the clip include Jay Leno, Bill Burr, Jeff Ross, Whoopi Goldberg and Howie Mandel.

Gottfried famously cracked the bad-taste Aristocrats joke at the Hugh Hefner roast soon after the September 11 attacks, which broke the ice at a difficult occasion.

The film is released in some Los Angeles and New York cinemas in November and was previously shown at the Tribeca Film Festival in April.
