A Short Film About John Bolton (2003)

A documentary about fantasy artist John Bolton. But why are responses scripted and staged? And why is that not John Bolton? Ah, it’s a mockumentary. That explains the overly sycophantic gallery owner, the humour that misfires and the allusions to found footage horror movies.
Some people will love it simply because it's by Gaiman, but I found it all rather pointless, other than to enable him to tell a story that would've worked just fine written down. I'd much rather have a book of Gaiman shorts to feed upon and a book of Bolton art for afters.
