About Larry 'Wild Man' Fischer
A street singer living on the obscure fringes of the L.A. subculture, in early 1968, Wild Man would sing anyone an original song for a dime. He offered these improvised and somewhat off-key ditties to anybody who'd listen.
Directed by Till Passow, Larry 'Wild Man' Fischer leans on a strong ensemble — Wild Man Fischer, Bill Mumy — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2002.
