My favorite movie about writer (and I'm sure you know about it already) has to be the Coen Brothers' BARTON FINK -- though it is about a really bad writer. Other titles to consider: Sam Fuller's THE BIG RED ONE -- which features a chrarter loosley based on Fuller himself, who is writing a book about his WWII experiences in the titular regiment. Rob Reiner's MISERY & the upcoming SECRET WINDOW -- these last two are based on works by Stephen King and feature writers trapped (literally) by their past successes. Just a couple of smaller, genre (i.e. "Horror" and War) films you might not have considered. Good Luck!
