Let's recommend good documentaries about writers.
I'll start with John Kennedy Toole: The Omega Point. Available on YouTube.

>Omnibus: Don DeLillo/The Word, the Image, the Gun
1991 BBC documentary on DeLillo, in which he appears. I think he had just written Mao II when this came out

>The Apocalypse According to Cioran
1995 Romanian documentary that features a very rare interview with the man himself. Extremely difficult to get hold of a proper torrent of the film; this YouTube video with English subs superimposed over Romanian subs is the best I could find

>H.P. Lovecraft: Fear of the Unknown
I'm not sure I'd describe the documentary as "good," the narration, titles, editing, and basically everything concerning the actual craft of filmmaking is very awkward and amateurish, but it extensively features some interesting views on Lovecraft from talented people like Guillermo Del Toro, S. T. Joshi, Ramsey Campbell, and John Carpenter. I found this particular documentary in the /x/ sticky so take it with a grain of salt

>Garth Merenghi's Darkplace: Scotch Mist
A Scottish mist descends on Darkplace and Dagless has to act fast to prevent all the English people in the hospital from grave danger.

>Endnotes
BBC Radio 3 documentary on David Foster Wallace. DeLillo, Mark Costello, and his sister are interviewed briefly
