ZEN CLOWN: I haven't been able to come up with anything to say about the Owen Wilson news which wasn't trite, cliched or in really poor taste. But Matt Zoller Seitz has been an off-and-on acquaintance of Wilson's over the years, and he has much to say about the actor/writer who he describes as a "good-time shaman; when he appears, you smile, because know you're about to have fun. He makes good films better and bad films tolerable. Onscreen, he's a human sunbeam," and hopefully he will return from the abyss in which he finds himself, "a fog comprised of biography, present-tense experience and body chemistry" as Matt puts it, and make a full recovery.
