Norm: The Tale of Norm Macdonald. Norm Macdonald in Norm: The Tale of Norm Macdonald. Netflix Norm: The Tale of Norm Macdonald, a new documentary directed by Judd Apatow, will look at the late comedian’s life and career. The trailer for the film, which hits Netflix on Oct. 16, compiles some of Macdonald’s best jokes (“When I was a kid I walked in on my parents having sex,” he says in one scene, “It was the most embarrassing half hour of my life”) along with clips of Macdonald talking with Sarah Silverman, Jim Carrey, Adam Sandler, and David Letterman, among others. The clip shows Macdonald discussing his firing from Saturday Night Live, where he hosted Weekend Update, to appearances in movies and samples of his standup comedy.
