Mental illness interrupted his dream of a film-making career. Thirty years later, he's directing the movie of his life. Bud Clayman is one of film's most unlikely heroes.

Leave your thoughts about OC87: The Obsessive Compulsive, Major Depression, Bipolar, Asperger's Movie.
| New York PostLou LumenickThrough it all, Clayman struggles to keep himself, and OC87, on track - and it's easy to cheer his ultimate triumph. |
| Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinThe film brings us vividly inside the life - and head - of its determined hero, Bud Clayman, as he depicts the process of what he calls "getting normal." |
| VarietyDennis HarveyOC87 serves both its subject and its viewers well by chronicling a process that is actually insightful, entertaining and apparently successful. |
| NPRAndrew LapinYet as viewers, we may instinctively crave more than what Clayman alone can offer us. Segments where he cedes screen time to others, including the bipolar General Hospital actor and mental-health advocate Maurice Benard, are a relief. |
| Village VoiceBenjamin MercerTo be sure, there are more artful and focused documentaries, but OC87 still stands as moving evidence that Clayman's trust in the value of the filmmaking process ultimately outweighed the extreme difficulty he says he has making even the smallest decisions. |
| The New York TimesAndy WebsterThis moving, penetrating documentary records his attempt to describe his conditions, confront them and learn to manage them. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeAn eye-opener about what it's like to live with a variety of mental illnesses, including obsessive-compulsive disorder -- and, however tenuously, to recover from them. |
| Time OutAndrew SchenkerThe film's depiction of [Clayman's] reality is rendered with cinematic brio and forceful clarity. |
| New York Daily NewsJoe NeumaierClayman, who co-directed with filmmaker friends, is fascinating company. |
| Slant MagazineKalvin HenelyA tender, painful, and frustrating work of vulnerability, and because of this in some ways deflects critical commentary. |
