Since someone was nice enough to send me a press release, I thought I would pass along information on an upcoming Harlan Ellison appearance and screening of the Ellison documentary Dreams With Sharp Teeth.

Thursday, August 9 – 7:30 PM
An Evening with Harlan Ellison (Screening of a work in progress.):
DREAMS WITH SHARP TEETH, 2007, 95 min. Harlan Ellison may be the greatest “unknown” writer of our times. Like Ray Bradbury and Kurt Vonnegut, Ellison’s work was originally shunted into the literary ghetto of “sci-fi,” but Ellison and his work now defines his own genre, which is as unique as its creator. Twenty-five years in the making, DREAMS WITH SHARP TEETH is a literary documentary that brings Harlan Ellison, his magnetic personality and amazing work to life, with appearances from Robin Williams and author Neil Gaiman. Directed by the producer of GRIZZLY MAN, Erik Nelson, it features an original score composed and performed by Richard Thompson.

Discussion following with author Harlan Ellison, moderated by director Erik Nelson.
