Criterion Channel—For those who've not had the privilege of seeing it, I [Nicholas Meyer] draw everyone's attention to Steven-Charles Jaffe's documentary about the black-humored cartoonist, Gahan Wilson. Gahan Wilson - Born Dead and Still Weird, is now screening on the Criterion channel.

Despite the fact I make a walk-on appearance in the film, I am promoting it as a first-rate and moving documentary, especially for those legions of his fans who enjoyed Wilson's work in Playboy and The New Yorker, over the years.
