- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Whatever one's opinion of Johnston's art, this is documentary filmmaking at its finest"
-
"Feuerzeig's film - everything a good documentary should be - is a story of family, friendship, art and fame, as seen through the prisms of exceptional beauty and deepest pain."
-
"With the most harrowing and aesthetically keen portrait of madness and artistic inspiration since 'Crumb.'"
-
"With humor, honesty and awe, Feuerzeig's portrait may love Daniel Johnston, but it won't give his parents much hope"
-
"A fascinating and lovingly crafted musical documentary"
-
"Occasionally slides into a breathless fan tribute, but nonetheless an affectionate and candid portrait of a troubled artist."
