KODAK | ALMOST DONE, WELL DONE THAT IS....

[Paul Ellington]

is kodak actually against RED or against digital?

Kodak does not like RED, as a result, I don't like Kodak. Can I be your go to guy at NYU? I would love to do it just because how into the products I am, not for money or gear. I AM Duke Ellington's Grandson and I became a filmmaker in 2005, I am 32, will be 33 a day after the big announcement.

What's a Tuba? Is that like a drum machine that DeadMau5 uses?

Who is Duke Ellington?

You ever watched "Anatomy of a Murder" (1959) ?

 

[Zeb B]

You ever watched "Anatomy of a Murder" (1959) ?

You mean that movie where Frederick Manion (Ben Gazzara), a lieutenant in the army, is arrested for the murder of a bartender, Barney Quill. He claims, in his defense, that the victim had raped and beaten up his wife Laura (Lee Remick). Although Laura supports her husband's story, the police surgeon can find no evidence that she has been raped. Manion is defended by Paul Biegler (James Stewart), a rather humble small-town lawyer. During the course of interviews, Biegler discovers that Manion is violently possessive and jealous, and also that his wife has a reputation for giving her favors to other men. Biegler realizes that the prosecution will try to make the court believe that Laura was the lover of the bartender and than Manion killed him and beat her up when he discovered them together. Manion pleads "not guilty" and Biegler, who knows that his case is weak, sets his assistants to try to find a witness who will save Manion.

No . . . haven't seen it. Does it have the "Tuba"?

One of the best musical scores ever, in my opinion (and it's a great film too).

Kidding of course about "The Duke" - was raised on a steady diet of jazz and show tunes by NYC parents. Went to college in Boston where the jazz/rock scene was banging in the 70's which helped me avoid Disco entirely. Gave jazz up when Kenny G cut his first album. Listening to my kid's music now which is mostly electronica - pleasantly mindless

If it's mindless, it's wrong type of electronica.

Hats off for the response.

 

[Petr Dvorak]

Mindless music is definitelly not wrong music.
