NPR on Ralph Steadman: how a nice man became a pictorial assassin

Great piece on NPR about Ralph Steadman and the upcoming documentary about his work:

“I was concerned that Ralph’s art would be the man and that I’d end up trying to make a film with someone who had this kind of aggressive attitude towards the world,” Paul says. “But Ralph is such a lovely, warm and generous man, and yet he goes to his table and creates these pieces of art which are dangerous and, to be perfectly honest, quite upsetting sometimes.”

Definitely a documentary I want to see.
