Tom befriends the known and unknown
Bes...Fantastic!<br />Tom befriends the known and unknown<br />Best read person I know ... Very inclusive<br />His pal Christopher Hotchens drunkrnly yold me at a party he thought tom was the devil... Bec if the devil came to earth he would be smart, know everyone, be surrounded by young beautiful women, participate in the best films, art and food. I had to agree tho I think of Tom as more angel than devil but whose gonna argue with Mr Hitchens?<br />Thank you for this writeup (and to Hsry for forwarding it) as I missed the Castro tribute to the end of my days regret!andrea carla michaelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08091986128593034022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2531345904528580427.post-90621181650588813162017-04-17T17:50:08.406-07:002017-04-17T17:50:08.406-07:00Thanks for reading & appreciating the article,...Thanks for reading & appreciating the article, Gary. I should probably have said "unusual" rather than "unique" so I'm glad you mentioned others straddling the divide.<br /><br />I'm not sure how I mixed up Ed Landberg & Ed Lachman while typing as they certainly are distinct in my mind. I wrote a <a href="http://hellonfriscobay.blogspot.com/2015/04/ed-pauline-2014.html" rel="nofollow">bit</a> about a film about Landberg a couple years ago. Anyway, I fixed the error.Brian Darrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17693169310367670898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2531345904528580427.post-55738827735360345652017-04-15T18:54:41.654-07:002017-04-15T18:54:41.654-07:00A terrific overview of the Novikoff Award to Tom L...A terrific overview of the Novikoff Award to Tom Luddy. He has influenced the careers of so many in the arts with his encouragement and generous introductions of people to each other. His straddling the for-profit and non-profit worlds has been done by others with similarly important results and cinema lovers are the better for it. It takes a savvy entrepreneur to understand how to create mutually beneficial outcomes without a conflict of interest.<br /><br />You might want to correct the name of the owner of the Cinema-Guild to Ed Landberg instead of the great cinematographer you reference later, Ed Lachman https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Lachman<br />, also a close friend of Luddy.Gary Meyerhttp://www.eatdrinkfilms.comnoreply@blogger.com
