Here is a bit more on the documentary about Kurt Vonnegut that we are suddenly hearing so much about.
This really looks like something special. We have cameras following Vonnegut around during the last 25 years of his life. With the extra work done since, that means that this documentary has been well over three decades in the making!
That alone would make it interesting to see, particularly since it is Kurt Vonnegut, one of the most unique authors that the United States has ever produced, and a great contributor to American letters.
Still, it is far from being a done deal, and needs a little help yet to see the light of the day.
Here are some links about the documentary, including a link to help fund it, if you are so inclined.
