The Devil And Daniel Johnston

[howiepea]

I thought I would share this link with you guys. Its fairly relevant I think...

Matt has been talking allot about this guy, Daniel Johnston, as of late. He seems to be really into him. And after watching this for the first time, its hard not take some sort of interest. Even if its from a purely humanistic perspective.

My friend use to go on about this man a short while back, and then Matt started bringing him up... Then just today, I coincidentally came across this link posted on one of my favourite websites that I visit daily, in which content is updated by the users.

 

If you have one hour and 45 minutes to burn, I highly recommend it. And it also sheds light on the direction of where Matt is coming from lately. Atleast that is what I think.

 

Enjoy!

Thanks ;)

 

I've been wanting to see this for a while now.

You can watch full movies on there?!?!?! I didn't know that!

 

Well, I'm going to load it and watch it. I dont know if I'll find it interesting though... I'll keep an open mind ;)

[Jarrod]

OKay, I tried to watch it but got really bored. So I watched Half Nelson instead.

[sockcrotch]

Wow, that movie was terrific. I hadn't heard a large amount about Daniel until now. Nor had I heard much of his music. It's inspirational.

I'm sorry, but I don't get what's so special about Daniel Johnston's music, sure the story is great, but still...

I'll probably rent it too, I can't sit in front of a computer to watch a movie because I'd get distracted.
