(CNN) Strange and more than a little sad, "You Cannot Kill David Arquette" -- a documentary about the actor's adventures in wrestling -- derives most of its strength from the discomfort associated with watching it. As the son of a showbiz family, the fact that Arquette is reduced to this cry for attention more than anything reflects the enticing lure of the spotlight. That moment angered the legions that take wrestling seriously, which makes Arquette's decision to return to the ring look like an act of desperation. Notably, Arquette and his current spouse, Christina McLarty Arquette, who produced the documentary, speak frankly about how his acting career has dried up. "I think David has a lot of sadness around the fact that he could have been that," she says, adding that he "became typecast as a goofball."
