Interesting, informative.. also funny!
I’ve only read a couple of Ellison’s stories (“‘Repent, Harlequin!’ Said the Ticktockman”, and “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream”, maybe one or two more that I don’t remember). I wasn’t interested in this documentary because I’m a fan. I have a family connection to an editor of sci-fi work from the period where Ellison was living in and publishing out of New York, and I was curious about whether that connection was mentioned at all. That is the sole, presumptuous, and completely narcissistic reason I watched this film.It was, regardless of the lack of mention of my niece’s grandfather, thoroughly entertaining and informative. Ellison has a knack for storytelling even when he’s not telling stories. It’s worth watching… for those two or three people wondering whether to watch it or not.
Solid
Ellison, despite his artistic shortcomings, is an entertaining figure .for about 20 minutes; not the film’s whole 96 minutes. He simply has little of depth to say: he does not like this, he does not like that, he revels in tales of his supposed bravado with fans, studio executives, and other writers, but we have all known people like this, and they are bores, and boors. The only reason no one seems to tell this to Ellison is because, well, he’s rich and famous, and pointing this out to someone rich and famous is decidedly un-American.If anything of Ellison is remembered in a few centuries, it may likely only be this film, in some large archive of formerly important subjects for anthropological purposes, for, as a film, and as an exploration of an artist, it fails. Here’s hoping director Nelson’s next three decades are a bit more rewarding, to him and us.
