CERTIFIABLY JONATHAN is about the comedian, Jonathan Winters, who sets out to be a successful painter and dreams of hanging in the Museum of Modern Art in NYC. Just when his dream is about to become reality, his sense of humor is stolen and he loses his ability to paint. To avert disaster, the filmmakers call on JonathanÂ’s friends, fellow actors and comedians to help him regain his sense of humor. What happens is funny and serious at the same time, just like our 83 year-old bi-polar hero.

Rest in Peace, J. Winters!

A famous comedian and artist wants to display his work at an art museum. Just when he thinks he has lost his touch, a series of famous comedians drop by to help him rekindle his artistic and comedic spark.

Following his recent death, watching this film is my way of getting to know Jonathan. I think it worked! Robin Williams does his hackneyed, humorless bit (and Winters makes a nice remark about how Williams has overshadowed him), and Jim Carrey even shows up. In fat, Carrey's few moments on screen are quite funny to me -- which is odd, given that I am not a huge Carrey fan. He has a quick wit, and I wish we saw more of that and less of his physical comedy in films.
