Jonathan Demme, RIP

[soundmotor]

I seldom comment on celebrity deaths but Demme was more than that; he was an artist and he has passed.

Plan to watch (for the hundredth time) Stop Making Sense this weekend, what a talent.

Watched "Philadelphia" a few weeks back; good stuff. I did not know he had directed episodes of "The Killing"! Neil Young's "Heart of Gold" was good also.

Watched it again recently. For me at least it holds up w/o caveat and borders on near perfect. No question as to Hopkins' & Foster's performance but Ted Levine, wow!

Some of the most psyche damaging work I can think of in modern film, Geebus!
