Who Is Alan Smithee?

Surprisingly good for a 50m AMC doc, using the subject to raise larger questions of authorship, what it means in a system where credit is currency and currency is everything, especially for women filmmakers and those of colour. Coolidge's POV is particularly interesting (note that three weeks after this aired, she was announced as the first female head of the DGA...). Some amusing moments. Name's genesis; Hiller insisting his Smithee-ing wasn't a publicity stunt; Kaye's bizarre self-sabotage.
