Whether or not you know who Daniel Johnston is, this is one of the best documentaries about a musician that you will ever see. Hell, it's probably one of the best docs about a person that you will see.

Daniel Johnston is the epitome of "troubled" musician. He's not the rock'n'roll cliche of a rock star being an "artist" Johnston is THE artist. Just do yourself a huge favor and check this film out and them go buy some of his records, you'll be glad that you did.

Besides, you'd be helping out one of the greatest musicians of our time, the Bob Dylan or the Beatles of our generation.
