‘Warren Ellis: Captured Ghosts’ – an interview with filmmaker Patrick Meaney on his new documentary
December 1st, 2011
The Faceless Mindless Collective are back and this time Patrick Meaney, film-maker and director of Grant Morrison: Talking With Gods, is in reach of their terrible teeth in their terrible jaws.
Patrick’s new documentary, Warren Ellis: Captured Ghosts, focusses on the life and works of pop-comics very own futurologist, ‘Internet Messiah’, hard man auteur, and features extensive interviews with the man himself and a great many of his friends and collaborators. It’s well worth a watch even if you have only a passing interest in the guy behind Planetary, Transmetropolitan and the Authority.
Ellis turns out to be not just a true original, and maybe slightly scary, but also hugely loveable. Who knew?
We get stuck into it (Patrick, with our blunt fingernails) after the jump
