Thanks for the tip-- I've never read anything by Ellison, but I have seen the caustic so-and-so in interviews, esp. with Tom Snyder. It should prove to be an interesting documentary even for those unfamiliar with his work.
Yeah, I want to see that part where he was a gang leader in New York. Apparently he instituted the novel tactic of suing the other gang....
Damn good writer, though.
I have read a lot of Ellison's work -- went on a binge back in 1988 and again last year. Wow! What a writer, and one with some range.
Yes, we know he wrote the original teleplays, "Demon With A Glass Hand" and "The City on the Edge of Forever", but...
"The Tombs" is outstanding. And on and on...
Gee, never saw so much recent footage of him. It neatly answers the question of "What would happen if Commodore Decker contracted Tourette's Syndrome"?
