A documentary about "Saturday Night Live's" head honcho tops the DVD releases for the week of June 9.

"Lorne": A behind-the-scenes glimpse of “SNL” creator Lorne Michaels by Academy Award-winning director Morgan Neville, featuring interviews with cast members and exclusive and archival footage.

"Such a powerful force in the nation’s comedic landscape deserves more than we get in this admittedly entertaining movie, which often struggles in its aim to cover more than half a century," writes Chicago Tribune columnist Rick Kogan in his commentary. "There is a hint that the 81-year-old is not ready for retirement, but what might that mean for 'SNL'? Who knows? No one here is talking. Michaels certainly deserves credit for his career, and if he comes off as a meticulous and obsessive person, so be it. He’s the man behind the curtain."
