I liked "24 Hour Party People". It is a psuedo-documentary about Tony Wilson's contribution to music. It starts with the beginnings of Joy Division and then the morph into New Order. Finally, it closes during the era of Happy Mondays. It is very funny and well done. If you are interested in any of them bands, I think you will enjoy this movie.
Speaking of Bobcat Goldthwaite, how about "Shakes the Clown". Easily, his best work (does that mean much?). It is a very dark comedy even though I think it was market as a Kangaroo Jack type farce. It is available on DVD but I've never seen it is a store.
So he defended Napster... That ended well.
He fought Microsoft... Does that count as a win?
He worked on Al Gores case in the Florida voting fiasco... Good job on that, too.
