Hopefully I can inspire lots of people to learn about [Patti Smith], to read poetry or learn about William Blake or Arthur Rimbaud..

Because the filming process was so organic and there was no script, the film [Dream of Life] was literally telling us what it wanted to be in the edi….

I didn't do well in high school, but I took photography, and I loved being able to capture moments..

I just wanted to be Patti's [Smith] messenger and get her word out there..
