a documentary film about this guy is gonna be released in some theaters on march 31. i'm really looking forward to watch this because he's one of my favorite musicians. but i think i'll have to wait till the dvd is released because i dont think this will be released here :?
anyway, he's a real genius and one of the most important artists of the last 20 years.. he's just so underrated.

Daniel Johnston is a manic-depressive genius singer/songwriter/artist, revealed in this portrait of madness, creativity and love.
The Devil and Daniel Johnston is a stunning portrait of a musical and artistic genius who nearly slipped away.
Director Jeff Feuerzeig exquisitely depicts a perfect example of brilliance and madness going hand in hand with subject Daniel Johnston. As an artist suffering from manic depression with delusions of grandeur, Daniel Johnston's wild fluctuations, numerous downward spirals, and periodic respites are exposed in this deeply moving documentary.


you can watch the trailer here: http://www.sonyclassics.com/devilanddan ... lr_300.wmv
