Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Six by Sondheim (2013)

I love musicals, which means I love Stephen Sondheim. But I had no idea just how much I'd actually love Sondheim the person. I could've listened to him monologuing about the history of his work, his motivations, and just general "how the sausage got made" insidery stuff for weeks.

Lovely man. Wonderful music. Brilliant documentary. The way they stitched together dozens of interviews into an organic whole was masterful.
