Plot Summary

From the producer of Grizzly Man comes a literary documentary that will send you back to your bookshelf, out to the library and into the bookstore. Harlan Ellison may be the greatest unknown writer of our time. Like Ray Bradbury and Kurt Vonnegut, Ellison's work was originally shunted into the literary ghetto, but now it defines its own unique genre. This is a portrait of the artist as a rage-a-holic. Passionate, intelligent, wounded, hilarious, contentious-words don't do justice to a man who manipulates them so well. Infinitely watchable, Ellison speaks to his life and creative process with the same fervour, self-awareness and imagination that he uses to write. Dreams With Sharp Teeth brings Ellison's magnetic personality and prolific work to life, featuring appearances by Robin Williams and Neil Gaiman, as well as an original score composed and performed by Richard Thompson.
