Tell Them Anything You Want is an amazing film. Spike Jonze kind of intruding into Sendak's life with his camera and getting a lot of great conversation and information out of the author. I highly recommend it.

I was so scared this was going to be an obit post. I've loved Maurice Sendak since I was very, very small, and don't see that changing anytime soon. Both of these are excellent.

Having loved Sendak's illustrations as a child, I started watching Tell Them Anything You Want expecting... something totally different. It was great to discover that he's the kind of guy who says things like "Ah, what the fuck?" a lot.
FWIW, Shel Silverstein, for those of us who only knew him from his children's books, was another great surprise to learn about.
