Himself
2014년 12월 22일 타계한 조 카커의 삶과 재능을 그린 작품. 가스 설치공 출신 조 카커는 1969년 우드스탁에서 전설적인 공연으로 꼽히는 비틀즈의 노래 ‘친구의 작은 도움으로’를 부르며 스타덤에 올랐다. 하지만 부담감은 커졌고 1970년대 조 카커 내면의 고통은 그를 죽음 직전까지 몰아갔다. 조 카커와의 인터뷰 등 귀한 자료들을 통해 그가 어떻게 알코올, 약물 중독과 싸웠는지 보여준다. (2017년 제13회 제천국제음악영화제)
Korla
self
Organist Korla Pandit was an alluring enigma, a television pioneer and the godfather of exotica music. He never spoke a word on 900 episodes of his groundbreaking 1950s TV program but captured the hearts of countless Los Angeles housewives with his soulful, hypnotic gaze and theatrical performance of popular tunes and East Indian compositions on the newly developed Hammond B3 organ. In the ’90s he resurfaced as a cult figure with the tiki/lounge music aficionados and ended up immortalized in the film Ed Wood. Often pegged as a “man of mystery,” Korla lived up to that billing when he took an amazing secret with him to his grave in 1998—one that is finally revealed in KORLA.
