Veteran Adr mixer David Boulton has some 225 film and TV credits, including such high-profile projects as “The Wolf of Wall Street,” “Life of Pi,” “Planet of the Apes” and “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon,” but it’s his long-running collaboration with Spike Lee that’s arguably his most impressive accomplishment.
Boulton began working with Lee back in the ’80s on “School Daze” and has worked with the director ever since. Their latest collaboration, Cannes Grand Prix winner “BlacKkKlansman,” about an African-American detective who infiltrates the Ku Klux Klan, is set for release Aug. 10 by Focus Features.
“We’re both about the same age, and we’re both from New York,” says Boulton of their relationship. “We’re like a well-oiled machine by now. I love working on his projects because he loves sound and really understands it.”
Lee says sound is “hugely important” in all his films. “I’m very involved,...

It didn't take long for Nick Basile's thriller Dark to surpass its fundraising goal on Kickstarter last year, and it no doubt helped that Joe Dante's name was attached to the project. As production gets ready to begin, the cast has just been filled out, and we've got the latest for ya today.
Variety reports that The Call and "Bates Motel"'s Michael Eklund and Boys Don't Cry's Brendan Sexton have rounded out the cast of the psychological thriller, which will also star Whitney Able (Monsters) and Alexandra Breckenridge ("American Horror Story").
In the film, written by Elias and directed by Basile, Able plays a disturbed young woman who must confront her worst fears when she finds herself trapped alone in a New York City loft during the 2003 blackout.
Kathryn Belli, Dave Boulton, Basile, and Elias will produce alongside executive producer Joe Dante and his company Renfield Productions.

A month-by-month rundown of 2013's most outrageous examples of sexism: from Seth Macfarlane's Oscar song to Kate Middleton's 'baby weight'
January
Good old Georg Baselitz kicked off the year in spectacular sexist style with the confident declaration: "Women don't paint very well. It's a fact." As it turned out, he was just the first in a long line of prominent men to confuse "prejudiced opinion" with "fact" over the course of the year – an easy mistake to make. Meanwhile, the New York Post took it upon itself to set the tone for a year of misogynistic media with a front-page picture of Hillary Clinton mid-passionate speech, with the headline: "No wonder Bill's afraid". This would have been brilliantly original were it not for the well-trodden path of decades of similar pieces attempting to discredit female politicians as shrill harpies. Yawn.
