Welcome to Marwen

I read the book and checked out (some of) the movie on DVD. Steve Carell again is excellent in a serious role and the animated reenactments of his imagined stories are well done. But, especially since it starts after the "town" is set up and all (curiously; they could have started earlier, the book provides his backstory and how he created the town), was not really interested in watching almost two hours (he had to be pressured to give a victim impact statement at the sentencing of his attackers and the film ends with him managing to do it). I'll try the documentary; this review is a bit too negative but interesting.
