In the Realms of the Unreal
Henry Darger is fascinating, and his art is remarkable, unpretentious, intricate... at times obsessively so, naive and, foremost, an inspiration to our generation today - a generation which creates primarily to gain attention, publicity and social status. A generation which creates to sell. Henry Darger creates only for himself. This documentary should be shown to all Art 101 students.Favorite Films

I loved it. It's so rare to see such a "pure" form of art devoid of social contamination. That man drew for himself, and himself only. He didn't try/want to conform in any way. Outsider art is always brilliant but his really touched my heart. Especially it's innocence (even the book he wrote! It was as if it was written by a child)
