Soul Power

Soul Power is a 2008 documentary film about the Zaire 74 music festival in Kinshasa which accompanied the Rumble in the Jungle heavyweight boxing championship match between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman in October 1974. The film was made from archival footage; other footage shot at the time focusing on the fight was edited to form the film When We Were Kings.

I was at a theatre in Paris where they were showing Soul Power, the documentary of the legendary concert that took place in Zaire Africa before the fight between Ali and Forman that Ali won. I brought the outfit worn by James Brown in the film to the theatre. Catch the film on DVD. It is inspiring musically and socially. Incredible performances by James Brown, The Spinners.

Stardust Memories

While attending a retrospect of his work, a filmmaker recalls his life and his loves: the inspirations for his films.
Lenny Kravitz
Actor, Musician
As the son of a Russian Jew and an African-American, Kravitz has a mixed background that enables him to come up with one-of-a-kind ideas and comparisons –– like describing the movie Stardust Memories as Woody Allen’s Electric Ladyland.

The Royal Tenenbaums

Royal Tenenbaum and his wife Etheline had three children and then they separated. All three children are extraordinary --- all geniuses. Virtually all memory of the brilliance of the young Tenenbaums was subsequently erased by two decades of betrayal, failure, and disaster. Most of this was generally considered to be their father's fault. "The Royal Tenenbaums" is the story of the family's sudden, unexpected reunion one recent winter.
Lenny Kravitz
Actor, Musician
Oh, I love comedy. I like dark comedies. Things like . . . Well, obviously, Woody Allen and Wes Anderson. The Royal Tenenbaums [2001] is one of my favorites.
