I had gotten the impression from some\nconversation that he wasn't writing films, but had retired to spend time\nwith his daughters (one of whom, I also seem to recall, has a crippling\nhealth problem). Am I completely off-base? \n\nIf so, has he done any documentaries more recent than _The Gate of Heavenly\nPeace_? I've read the script to that one, and quite liked it. I've actually\nseen _The World of Tomorrow_, about the 1939-40 World's Fair, and it's\nstaggeringly brilliant, and very, very Crowley. "
