    Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) directs a new documentary called "Is the Man Who is Tall Happy?" Himself and Chomsky talk about a wide range of topics while the conversation is illustrated by Gondry.
    Through complex, lively conversations with Chomsky and brilliant illustrations by Gondry, the film becomes a work of art that reveals the life and work of the father of modern linguistics while also exploring his theories on the emergence of language and thoughts on many other topics.

    Thought this was worth throwing into the wider sphere of interest as it looks like it could be fantastic.

    This looks like it could be very good - it's a novel way of presenting abstract ideas.

    Also looks like it will present Chomsky in a non-partisan way. Good to hear from such a great mind without having his ideas wrapped in the context of radical left-wing politics.
