Plot.
Comedy guru Del Close, mentor to everyone from Bill Murray to Tina Fey, sets out to write his autobiography for D.C. Comics. As he leads us through sewers, mental wards, and his peculiar talent for making everyone famous but himself, Close emerges as a personification of the creative impulse itself. He's a muse with BO and dirty needles, offering transcendence despite (or because of) the trail of wreckage behind him.

Wiki.
For Madmen Only: The Stories of Del Close is a 2020 comedy-documentary hybrid film about comedian Del Close (1934–1999), who coached many of the best-known comedians and comic actors of the late twentieth century. Its stories are drawn in part from Wasteland, an autobiographical horror comic co-written by Close and John Ostrander and published by DC Comics (1987–89). Directed by Heather Ross, the film stars James Urbaniak (as Close), Patton Oswalt, Bob Odenkirk, Jason Sudeikis, Matt Walsh, Josh Fadem, and Lauren Lapkus. It premiered digitally at SXSW in 2020.
