Whoopi Goldberg - Fontaine… Why Am I Straight? (1988)


"Filmed live at the Mayfair Theater in Santa Monica, Whoopi Goldberg's onstage alter-ego Fontaine, a recently recovered junkie, offers hilarious and sometimes poignant musings on life in the Betty Ford Clinic, sex, television and the state of her life." - The New York Times

"The line between the character and the performer is mighty thin, though, and this hour is mostly a showcase for the edgy topical comedy that was, for a time, Goldberg’s bread and butter." - Flavorwire

"A comedy special starring Whoopi Goldberg as she recreates her alter-ego, Fontaine, newly released from the Betty Ford clinic." - TCM
