But thats what makes Don Rickles, The Sultan of Insults, such an amazing person: Despite over 50 years of roasting people like a Friars clubber, hes still made plenty of friends. Several of them (Billy Crystal, Bob Newhart, Chris Rock, and more) appear in the new John Landis film, Mr. Warmth: The Don Rickles Project. Along with over 30 interviews, the doc contains several famous clips vicious enough to stun Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. Bask in the warmth Friday through Thursday at the Lake Worth Playhouse (713 Lake Worth Ave., Lake Worth). Tickets start at $6. Visit www.lakeworthplayhouse.org.
