PHILIP K. DICK DOCUMENTARY PART 9 OF 9

"The Penultimate Truth about Philip K. Dick"

In 2007 I produced this documentary about the mystical experiences of sci-fi writer Philip K. Dick.

Philip K. Dick is considered by many to be one the world's greatest science fiction writers ever; as a sufferer from mental illness himself he had the ability to turn his hallucinations about the universe into an extraordinary writing career.
During his lifetime, Dick produced an astonishing amount of prize winning novels and short stories, which were translated into more than 25 languages. Three of his literary works were transformed into blockbuster movies: Blade Runner, Minority Report and Total Recall.
Several years before his death, Philip started having mystical experiences that affected his everyday life. As a result, he started to wonder if what he had imagined for his stories was real and if life was just an illusion or the creation of each person's subjectivity.
This in-depth program explores Philip K. Dick`s world, a universe full of mysteries and intrigues.

@godmadnezz no, this was just a documentary on PKD and not part of a series.

Fuck Jeter. The man comes off as an arrogant and overly critical slimeball. What's even more scummy is that he paints this ugly picture of Dick when a good portion of his work is directly inspired by Dick and PKD was very supportive of his early works. He should learn to show gratitude and respect for his so called friend.

@organysntracey1 ; Yes, Jeter is a complete JACKASS!. This type of person will not have friends of any value. He reminds people how polarised this world is.

@organysntracey1 so much for being open minded... jesus... young ppl are clueless

@11pinrelay gottcha!

[11pinrelay]

@organysntracey1 Yes, I did.

[organysntracey1]

@11pinrelay I don't think you meant this for me.

[11pinrelay]

@organysntracey1 What do you mean? K.W. Jeter is a titanic writer; a genius...

He was there to provide counterpoint. Joan Simpson was more genuinely bitter, i.e. more pissing on PKD's genius, but both are parasite losers in their own right.

the so-called friend, who did the blade runner series, I could have totally did without his commentary altogether. What a jerk. First he calls all the ppl going to the group sessions "losers" then he calls Phil "vain" then he "thanks god" that Phil didn't die "insane" or a "lunatic". In real life, I could totally do without a friend like him. Otherwise, love the piece.
