The Devil And Daniel Johnston

After standing next to Daniel Johnston in a small grocery store (we were both looking for chewing gum) a month or so ago at the All Tomorrow's Parties music festival, where i also saw him perform - both solo and with Yo La Tengo, i was very curious about who this guy was. Why everyone is so fascinated with Daniel Johnston?! So i finally watched this documentary about him ("The Devil And Daniel Johnston")...and omg now i GET IT! Now i understand the magic of Daniel Johnston's music, the interest in him as a person and the amazing life story behind all of it. So much pain for such beautiful songs. <3 Daniel Johnston.
