Success of this movie opens next similar stories though not free from the influence of Cecil B De Mille actress is on the rise. Film’s story itself is also quite supportive. Similarly, the entire crew of the ‘fast’ from the bad stuff before the movie was released.

Although many Jesus films throughout the late 1920s to early 1960s, there was nothing sufficient to have a place in the hearts of the audience. Up comes The King of Kings (1961), starring Jeffrey Hunter. The advantages of this film lies in the greatness of Hunter in the title role, plus a thrilling musical and melodramatic.

Reinforce the impression that these films. Shortly thereafter, appeared The Gospel According to St.. Matthew (1964) that low berbujet. Unfortunately, the audience criticized the people were behind the making of the film, ie, Piere Paolo Pasolini a homosexual atheist Marxist. Still, the movie simply describes the sacrifice of the Christ from the darker side.

Jesus Film in the 1970s closed with Monty Python’s Life of Brian (1979). The film tells the person who mistakenly presumed Israeli nationality of Jesus and finally crucified. These films highlight many sides of the Middle East, but so many got protests from Jews in Hollywood adherents.

The Last Temptation of Christ (1988) also find a place, but more because of the director behind it. Martin Scorsese, with a budget of U.S. $ 6 million, to create something phenomenal adaptation of the novel, although her story titled the same. Although talented, the director of this one is rarely awarded. In this film, a character played by Jesus’ famous character actor, Willem Dafoe.

Meanwhile, at the millennium, the only movie about Jesus’ most talked about is the Passion of the Christ (2004). Talented actor and director Mel Gibson to capture the last 24 hours in the life of Jesus, including the moment of the last supper.

He’s even bringing his crew to Italy and spent U.S. $ 30 million for this film. The result, they pocketed U.S. $ 371 million of U.S. alone and an additional U.S. $ 241 million from other areas.

"A Thousand Country Band"


Jakarta – The music industry is like a terminal, have come and gone. “There is always regenerating,” said Indrawati Widjaja, or what is familiarly called Mother Acin, managing director of the Musica Studio’s.

His experience over the decades leading the Musica Studios, which he founded, his father had made my mother Acin coming to a conclusion like that.

“I began to see that the regeneration process from the time Tim Christensen, Trio Libels, and Jasmine Trias was born, followed Base Jam, Peter, now Nidji, Letto, etc,” he explained.

The process is the key word. The selection process involving the parties competent A Mild Live Wanted (AMLW) eventually culminate in determining the winner in each regional. Bands are clearly worthy of potentially reconcilable with the rising star alias top bands like Purple, Samson, and Naff via A Mild Live Rising Stars.

D’Masiv is one band that was found through the arena AMLW Musica Studios in 2007. And, now after Magneto who became champion in the event AMLW 2008.

Mother Acin many known among musicians have cold hands in dealing with a band, and have thin ears in choosing songs that will be released on an album. No wonder, when many top bands take shelter under the flag Musica Studios.

“I only give advice, really. While my musical creativity submit fully to the musicians are concerned,” he said modestly.

On the sidelines of the launch of a compilation album A Mild Live Wanted 2008, INILAH.COM had a friendly talk with the women to every man. Following excerpt:

Now a lot of new bands popping up, how you see it?

Record companies increasingly incessant thrusting new bands with a range of song material at the same time, is a phenomenon. But all must return to the listener. Those who will determine whether they survive or not. Determination to work hard to make a band would exist in the long term. If the pursuit of material, usually only briefly.

This phenomenon has caused a lot of bands that can succeed. Albums sell millions of copies, or grab a lot of revenue from RBT (ring back tone). Like Peterpan, Nidji, Letto, and others.

Now this becomes the child band is a proud profession. The difference with the first, many young children playing hide-hide the music. Hehehe. Because so many bands, a journalist friend of mine told Indonesia’s state Thousand Band ….

As a music producer, record company owner, how do you pick a decent band for the recording?

In Musica Studios, indeed every day, many bands who offered to record. Every day can go 70′s demo. Rada’s also confused which ones deserve to listen to and what does not. But I submit to my friends at A & R for selecting follow-up.

I am always looking for bands that have a unique and distinct in music. Music groups have their own identity does not follow the famous band that was ahead. If possible, the band creates music trends in Indonesia.

However, this has been two years in collaboration with Musica Studios A Mild held A Mild Live Wanted looking for new bands with talent from all over the country. Well, we were helped in this way to discover new bands with talent.

For example D Masiv which nowadays has become the most famous band. Perhaps, following AMLW Magneto who became champion in 2008. We assisted in the selection of many parties such as music journalist, music producer, senior musicians, etc..

A good band is what is the criteria?

What? Too difficult, really. If it’s in my opinion, yes it was. Having true self and have high creativity to create new trends in the world of Indonesian music.

The most essential is the song material that must be nice and pleasant to hear. Songs such as this, have the opportunity to be a hit. In addition, the appearance of the vocalist when the song is. He must be able to bring soul music song.

The next important point is that the band must have a vision and be able to maintain cohesion through good internal communication. Between one to the other personnel must be familiar with and understand each character deeply. This cohesiveness will look and sticking as they appear.

But more than that. Success is not just a music group at work or skill to play the song only. But also the managerial skills to manage the band that existed for a long time.

About piracy, how do you react?

Yes, piracy is very frustrating as well. But, because I love music, I do not want to stop. Poor potential for young children is so high in music. We, the label should remain a place of their creativity
