Try to see this. It's brilliant. I caught it on sky arts! Long live Murdoch's tv. It's about Paul H-O who 
produced a funny looking show on public access tv about the New York art world, and there are lots of 
vintage takes from the old days before money spoiled everything (the usual nostalgia, money has 
always spoiled everything). Then Paul interviews Cindy Sherman, they start going out, and the rest is 
history. Both Paul H-O and Cindy are charming characters, and Sherman comes across as one of the 
most non-pompous characters on any tv show/interview about famous artists. Her and H-O's 
relationship has a fairy tale quality about it, and is genuinely uplifting. |It's hard to explain but it all 
makes you feel warm and happy (despite the inevitable problems).
