Tribute to Blake Edwards


Sad day for me today with the news my cinematic directing idol, Blake Edwards, has passed away. Many of his films have shaped my appreciation and interest in producing comedic visual content, and although a blog entry does not amount to much, I just wanted to share my sense of loss.

On the social media side, I'll be interested to see if digital sales in some of his films receive a spike from this news (much like Michael Jackson's catalogue soared to popularity again following his equally tragic death earlier this year). I think they will.

If you want to help my prediction out I recommend you all grab a copy of Breakfast At Tiffany's (1961), The Great Race (1965) and Return of the Pink Panther (1975)
