Now I am in a very relaxed mood listening to Michel Legrand's score to THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR. As am I. Has anyone cracked the first clew? SAME QUESTION.

You can talk all you want about glutting the marketplace but I just crunched our numbers for the first half of 2014 and it's the most we have ever made in our 12 year history from January 1 to June 30. I was shocked, but it made sense when I looked at the sales. While we didn't have a mammoth size hit like previous years (i.e. Star Trek The Motion Picture, ID4, or Hook), we had several home runs...and those home runs helped sell some of the smaller releases. It's all about the titles. For every Empire of the Sun, It's a Wonderful Life and Young Sherlock Holmes a company releases it helps pay for smaller projects like D.A.R.Y.L. and Judith that didn't sell a boatload of copies. There is nothing wrong with variety in the marketplace. A customer doesn't have to buy everything that comes out. That's just plain silly. Pick and choose and get what you want. If you are worried about something selling out, then prioritize and buy the items that you know are limited. Also, keep in mind some times things are beyond the labels' control. For instance, we only have 2 releases in July, but most likely 5 in August. Projects get delayed for a variety of reasons...most of which is beyond the labels control. None of us are made of money and we need to start recouping a project's cost as soon as possible. In other words -- SHIT HAPPENS. Happy 4th, everyone! MV Glad I could contribute to those sales good buddy!

Ididn't guess it. somebody asked if North had any other rejected scores aside from 2001, and both Ford and I chimed in with a list (mine more complete). We listed, but not guessed.
