Comedian Tig Notaro had a groundbreaking set at the famous Los Angeles club Largo in 2012. What did she do? She talked about being recently diagnosed with cancer. That may not sound like the makings for a hilarious night out at the comedy club, but it catapulted her career to a new level. Along with its many new July releases, Netflix is debuting a documentary about the comedian and her struggle to battle cancer while suddenly in the limelight because of it. The trailer is especially moving if you've followed Notaro's story, but it's just as inspiring if you haven't.
