My Take
Morrissey interests me precisely because he stood next to Andy Warhol without dissolving into him. A Manhattan-born Fordham man, he directed, wrote, shot, and edited within the chaos of the Factory, and I read him as the figure who turned an art-world party into actual films. The genius gets the legend; the person who makes the work exist gets overlooked. His death in 2024 felt like the closing of a real thread of that era. I have a deep respect for these hands-on operators in the shadow of celebrated visionaries, and Morrissey is exactly that kind of unsung craftsman.
