"the devil and daniel johnston" at the modern

both jasper stone frontguy ed voyles and my cinema-enamored buddy andrew in philly pulled my coat to this flick; now it's playing at the li'l fort's very own modern art museum as part of their "magnolia at the modern" film series:

THE DEVIL AND DANIEL JOHNSTON
May 12-14
Friday 6 & 8 pm; Saturday 5 pm; Sunday 2 & 4 pm

Jeff Feuerzeig won Best Director at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival for this documentary portrait of manic-depressive genius singer-songwriter-artist Daniel Johnston.


could be too good to pass up.

best 2 hours you'll spend at the pictures all year. there ain't ever much that is actually "worth the hype" that surrounds it (though this is,) and i DARE any flick to make me like it more than this'un in '06.

"best two hours i've spent in a LONG time..."

precisely the thing i heard a happy camper say--quite loudly--as end credits rolled for "Neil Young: Heart of Gold" at the Modern last month.

"Devil and DJ" is well-edited and so much fun, cuz i knew him (Daniel, not the devil) back in the day. hehe
