The Cardinal and the Corpse

The Cardinal and the Corpse (1992) is a documentary directed by Iain Sinclair rated 9.0/10.

‘The Cardinal and the Corpse' marks the beginning of Petit’s loose partnership with writer Iain Sinclair. There’s a nod towards narrative here involving a book-search launched by graphic novelist Alan Moore and a dealer (the dapper but barking Driffield), but it’s little more than an excuse to showcase a number of authors and other miscreants.
