With more people than ever before living long and heathy lives, the traditional beliefs that dementia and infirmity rule old age seem outdated. Thank god for Carl Reiner, the 95-year-old comedian, actor, director and writer whose career spans nearly seven decades.
Perhaps best known as the creator, producer, writer, and sometimes actor on The Dick Van Dyke Show, he recently released the new HBO documentary “If You’re Not in the Obit, Eat Breakfast.”. Using interviews with his friends, including Betty White (95), Mel Brooks (90), and Kirk Douglas (100), Reiner explores what keeps people in their later years sharp, vigorous, and engaged.
The documentary is available on HBO Now and HBO Go. Check out the trailer below.
