What Danny Says Is About

Danny Fields was one of those people who stood in the middle of American music from the sixties into the eighties without ever going on stage. He left Harvard law, moved into the circle around Warhol’s Factory, ran publicity at Elektra Records, and worked in turn with the Doors, the Velvet Underground, Nico, the MC5, the Stooges and the Ramones. The documentary tells his career not as a success story but as the story of someone who made a profession out of being in the right place at the right moment. Brendan Toller took the title from a song on the Ramones’ 1980 album. John Cale, Alice Cooper, Wayne Kramer and Paul Morrissey are among those who talk. Fields was openly gay, and the film does not skip that part of him either.
