Bill Clegg told me that he isn't promoting Portrait of an Addict as a Young Man, but there is most definitely a trailer for it, which goes the after-school special route, with ominous piano and gently waving wheat. But no Jerri Blank cameo!

I like when the photograph of New York is whisked away by the wind. What's your favorite part?
