Peggy Lee's Is That All There Is?

The Documentary

Available for over a year

Is That All There Is, the Leiber and Stoller song made famous by Peggy Lee, is based upon a short story by Thomas Mann called Disillusionmen', but those who know and love it feel it is inspirational rather than a cynical, world weary musical take on existentialism and the futility of life.
