The Devil and Daniel Johnston

"I had lost my mind. I lost my head for a while was off my rocker outta line, outta wack. See I had this tiny crack in my head That slowly split open and my brain snoozed out, Lyin' on the sidewalk and I didn't even know it. I had lost my mind." --I Had Lost My Mind by Daniel Johnston

Daniel Johnston - songwriter, artist, a man fighting demons. another plot of the "troubled artist" type. a great film - left me wondering how many truly "great" people never achieve their potential because of one thing or another. also a pretty accurate picture (i think) of mental illness - one minute he's fine, then something is always lurking and sabotaging. this film reminded me of crumb a bit.
