The Mindscape of Alan Moore (2003)
Damn, I was gonna link to this video here but it's been taken down. Someone put up the full-length documentary on Alan Moore.
I just saw the documentary the other day and it's one of the weirdest, most interesting documentary I've sat through, except for some really tacky and corny visuals (the whole 1hr 17mins is Alan Moore talking).
If you don't know, Moore wrote Watchmen, V, Swamp Thing, created Constatine which spun off into Hellblazer, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, From Hell, Lost Girls, etc.
1/3 of the documentary is on his life growing up in Northhampton and how he got into comics, what he was trying to do with Watchmen, V, Swamp Thing, and the rest of the documentary is on magic and his worldview (he believes we'll reach an information flashpoint by 2015 and society will turn into 'steam').
Highly recommended for fans of his works and just for a laugh unless you worship a Roman snake deity called Glycon
