In the article series Sound and Vision we take a look at music videos from notable directors. This week we take a look at Kate Bush's King of the Mountain, directed by Jimmy T. Murakami. With the recent passing of Roger Corman, I would like to look back at the work of one of his protegés, and especially his music videos. Many people are aware that Corman helped launch the careers of people like Martin Scorsese, Joe Dante, James Cameron, Jack Nicholson and many many more. But one of the lesser known names is Jimmy T.

Exclusive: Greenwich Entertainment announced today the acquisition of North American distribution rights to Katie Burrell’s feature debut Weak Layers.
The film is directed and co-written by Burrell (who also stars), and Andrew Ladd, also stars Chelsea Conwright and Jadyn Wong. Weak Layers will arrive in theaters in top 50 markets and in select mountain towns on January 5, and on VOD on February 6, 2024.
The three women star as evicted roommates who enter a ski-movie contest to resolve their living situation. Set in Lake Tahoe, these three passionate and lovably rowdy local women go on a quest to win a world-famous 72-hour short ski film competition. A progressive throwback to the cult classics, the film dissects modern, male-driven ski culture while championing the tight-knit local communities found in ski towns throughout the world.
“I love anything that upends a trope and this movie is full of the kind of teasing satire that satisfies the rebel in me.

This past week’s wide release of Fortnite on iOS proved that, while not everyone plays games, sometimes it can seem like it. More specifically, it can seem like everyone’s playing one particular game that punches through the pop-culture background noise into wider conversations, much as Pokemon Go did in the summer of 2016. And in Fortnite’s case, they’re not just playing the game, they’re skipping school for it, they’re posting videos, watching it endlessly, pulling in NBA players and rap stars and even making it onto daytime TV and sports-talk radio.
Fortnite shot to No. 1 on the iTunes Store list 12 hours after becoming widely available April 2. Five days after coming out of beta mode, Fortnite remains the store’s most-downloaded app, and No. 3 in gross revenues, behind entertainment giants Pandora and Netflix.
Sensor Tower, a game industry analyst, estimated the game already had made $15 million in its first three weeks.
