So, 'Alligator Author' is this intriguing dive into the behind-the-scenes of the 1980 cult classic 'Alligator'. It's got a laid-back pace, letting you soak in the little details that went into creating that memorable giant gator flick. The interview with John Sayles, who penned the screenplay, adds a personal touch—he shares insights into the film's themes of urban decay and humanity's hubris. The doc's atmosphere is kind of nostalgic, with vibes that remind you of the late '70s and early '80s independent film scene. And let's not forget, the practical effects in 'Alligator' were ahead of their time. It feels like a real love letter to a film that doesn't always get the credit it deserves.
