Crispin Glover's films, What Is It? and It is Fine. Everything is Fine!, are only able to be seen on Glover's own roadshow, though a really crappy-quality torrent of the former is floating around the internet. If they ever come nearby, make a point of seeing them; they're fascinating and utterly unique, and he also does these really cool spoken-word presentations of books he's found and edited into his own narratives, with the pages projected on the screen, plus extremely candid Q&As after the show. It is Fine. Evertyhing is Fine! is a legit great movie, like the perverted lovechild of David Lynch and Harmony Korine. He deals with a lot of taboo sexual material in a frank and honest manner that you rarely see. At least one of his motivations for never releasing the films on home video is very noble; What is It? employs a lot of actors with Downs syndrome (and it's not a cheap or tacky stunt), and Glover fears that releasing them on home media would subject clips to being taken out of context for the purpose of mocking them.
