TOWER RECORDS SUNSET IN-STORE
LEGENDARY FILM PRODUCER ROBERT EVANS
JOINS GUITAR VIRTUOSO SLASH AND COMPOSER JEFF DANNA AT TOWER RECORDS SUNSET
FOR SPECIAL IN-STORE SIGNING OF
"THE KID STAYS IN THE PICTURE" SOUNDTRACK ON AUG. 6th
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Legendary film producer Robert Evans, subject of this summer's Focus Features release The Kid Stays in the Picture, appeared at Tower Records Sunset for a special in-store signing of the film's Milan Records soundtrack CD on Tuesday, August 6th at 7:00 PM.
Mr. Evans (who, as chief of production at Paramount Pictures, oversaw the production of such classics as The Godfather, Rosemary's Baby, and Love Story) was joined for this special event by guitar virtuoso Slash (whose rendition of Nino Rota's unforgettable "Love Theme from The Godfather" will be available commercially, for the first time, as part of the soundtrack); and The Kid Stays in the Picture composer Jeff Danna (whose other film scoring credits include O and Green Dragon).
Focus Features will release The Kid Stays in the Picture on July 26th in
New York and Los Angeles; on August 2nd in Orange County; and on August 9th in select cities. The Kid Stays in the Picture traces the meteoric rise, fall, and rise again of the legendary Hollywood producer. Adapted from Mr. Evans's tell-all autobiography, the movie takes the audience on an intimate journey into the mind of this Hollywood legend, and is narrated by Mr. Evans in his distinctive voice and storytelling manner. Academy Award-nominated filmmakers Brett Morgen and Nanette Burstein (On the Ropes) and producer Graydon Carter bring this Hollywood tale to life utilizing visual effects, archival footage, clips from classic films, and 35MM photography by cinematographer John Bailey to create a rich visual and aural portrait of the man who, throughout the 1970s, was considered Hollywood's "Golden Boy." The Kid Stays in the Picture made its World Premiere at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival; and was a Special Screening selection at the 2002 Cannes International Film Festival.
