Kovacs, Toronto, Telluride: Trade Roughage 07/24/07

Under discussion:

Ghostbusters  (1984)

  • Laszlo Kovacs, the Hungarian-born master cinematographer who shot Paper Moon, Easy Rider and Ghostbusters, has died. A documentary about Kovacs and his friend and fellow cinematographer Vilmos Zsigmond is currently in the works. Above: a clip from one of his most visually stunning works, Martin Scorsese’s batshit-insane 1977 musical New York, New York, via YouTube.
  • The Telluride Film Festival has invited Edith R. Kramer to serve as guest diretor of the 2007 festivities. Kramer served as lead curator at UC Berkeley’s Pacific Film Archive for two decades, and as Telluride’s Tom Luddy notes in this press release, “Her international reputation will result in Kramer bringing movies to Telluride that nobody else could get from archives.”
  • George A. Romero’s latest will debut in the Midnight Madness program at the Toronto Film Festival. The director promises that George A. Romero’s Diary of the Dead is “not a sequel or a remake, it’s a whole new beginning for the dead.”
