The Madness of Crispin Glover

For you who know him, what do you think of Crispin Glover? My wife and I like his movies. I was first introduced to him in Back to the Future and I really liked his character. As the Thin Man he was the best thing about the Charlie's Angels movies. What many may not know is he has great leading roles in films he often creates himself. They aren't well know, but they represent his best work. I really enjoy Bartleby and this weekend my wife and I just finished Williard. I loved it!

Anyway, I searched youtube for more Crispin Glover and ran into some crazy stuff. I think I love it, but it's so odd - maybe that's why I love it. Anyway, here's a taste of what I'm talking about. This is his music video called Clowny Clown Clown. Enjoy and discuss.

I remember watching his appearance on Letterman's old NBC show when it first aired.

Ever seen it? The nutininess runs deep:

The assertion is that he was on acid during this interview. Could be. I don't know.

I did see that. It was bizzare. Did you see his next appearance a few years later? He was fairly down to earth, but Letterman let him have it for the previous appearance. It was at this second appearance that he promoted "Clowny Clown Clown" which I posted in the OP.

No. This thread was the first time I'd seen the "Clowny Clown Clown" thing. I saw him a few years ago promoting his allegedly acid-induced cinematic piece "What is it?"

He actually has some decent screen presence. I thought he was pretty effective as the eerily silent henchman in that otherwise pretty awful "Charlie's Angels" movie. And, of course, there's McFly . . .
