Fictional documentary about the life of human chameleon Leonard Zelig, a man who becomes a celebrity in the 1920s due to his ability to look and act like whoever is around him. Clever editing places Zelig in real newsreel footage of Woodrow Wilson, Babe Ruth, and others.
Editor's Verdict
"Zelig is a historical comedy/mockumentary focusing on identity and fame during the 1920s and 1930s. There is no indication that the narrative is set during the Christmas season, nor do any of the central themes or plot points relate to Christmas traditions or iconography."
