THE DEVIL AND DANIEL JOHNSTON

THE DEVIL AND DANIEL JOHNSTON, directed by Jeff Feuerzeig, is a documentary about the underground cassette tape savant Daniel Johnston. The film begins with footage of Johnston speaking to a video camera in front of a mirror. As artful as it is eerie he says, "This is the ghost of Daniel Johnston." Though this looks like a narrative convention, Johnston does not narrate his own film. In fact, though the film intends to mine the mystery of the artist, the demons that torment him get first billing. We are limited to interfacing with the artist through his songs, sketches, films, and the extensive collection of audio and videocassettes that document his day-to-day life before his commitment and subsequent medication in 1991.
