Brownie Speaks

Aug 26, 2014
A native of Wilmington, Delaware, jazz trumpeter Clifford Brown made an outstanding and influential contribution to music. In an era when many musicians were emulating Charlie Parker’s drug abuse, Brown inspired others to achieve greatness while living a clean life. Ironically, he was killed in a car accident at the age of 25. This feature-length documentary presents a richly detailed account of Brown’s life, and examines his historical importance in the context of three criteria–innovation, influence, and individuality.

Ski-Faszination

Oct 17, 1966
With his first film "Skifascination", Willy Bogner junior composed something unprecedented: a ski symphony of ski races, sketches and ski ballet. The world had never seen such an aesthetic combination of choreographed ski turns, brightly colored ski suits and emotional music in 1966! Shot in Ultrascope in the mountains around St. Moritz, the idea, script, production and camera shots were all the work of Willy Bogner. The spectacular images opened up completely new perspectives on skiing, which at the time was primarily seen as a high-speed sport. Willy added a romantic touch to skiing by combining it with beauty, harmony and fun. He didn't even need a continuous plot - snow, mountains and dancing on two boards were all he needed as the main characters!
