Has anyone here seen it?
adultdvdboxoffice lists Alan Smithee as director but one special feature is a director's commentary!
I very much enjoyed Exhausted (the full length docu of what you can partially see in the Criterion LD of Boogie Nights) but was somewhat disappointed not to see much "Wadd"-stuff, so this new documentary is hopefully the whole Holmes...

I watched this a few weeks ago. It was a good documentary, though i had no idea he was such a horrible person before i watched it.

We showed this at the SOuth By Southwest movie festival. It got I think about 3 showings and they all sold out. Matt Damon and Billy Bob Thornton came since they were in town filming All The Pretty Horses. The doc is pretty good but it's 2 1/2 hours long. I think it could have had a good half hour out, it wouldn't have hurt the film at all...And I agree, he was a pretty sick dude...
