Who is Harry Nilsson, with the complete title Who is Harry Nilsson (and why is everybody talking about him?), is a documentary about the musician Harry Nilsson that premiered at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival in 2006.
David Leaf and John Scheinfeld interviewed close to three dozen of Harry's friends, colleagues and extended family, who all shared their memories of Harry Nilsson, his music and how it affected them. This was put together in a documentary where we follow Harry Nilsson from childhood to death, enjoying the highs and lows along with him, from Grammy wins through divorce and substance abuse.
It is filled with well known faces. Nilsson was good friends with John Lennon, Ringo Starr and many other superstars in the industry. But there are also a lot of interviews with his family.
