This is a wonderful story, produced by Frances Beatty, a senior curator at the Feigen Gallery here in New York, who knew and worked with Ray Johnson for several years. The thing I like most about this film — besides giving a great view of this character — is the insight into the art community of NYC’s East Village in the early 80’s. What a bright shining moment this was!

There are several other titles that focus on this era. Especially see The Nomi Song about Klaus Nomi from this same era. Also see Gigantic: A Tale of Two Johns and Wild Style.
