Steven Wright: When the Leaves Blow Away

Not as brilliant as "I Have a Pony," but still a lot of laughs to be had from his uniquely surreal material and deadpan delivery.

Part masterful stand up comedy, part incredibly strange and surreal short film.

Good stand-up, interminably boring art film.

I think Wright's style and comedy are required to make the other work. It is a fascinating mixture of insanity and unique delivery that make this enjoyable. Most definitely not for everybody though. Also, the version I saw had Steven Wright's "One Soldier" short tacked on at the end so if you saw it with the short, I have reviewed it separately and am not reflecting that in this score.

Good ol' Steven Wright. This stand-up special just shows how little his performance has changed over the years, and good on him for that. Pretty much all the jokes are new, all are funny, some are hilarious. The only bad thing about this show is that it's too short.
