French bassist Bunny Brunel composed and performed the score for my movie Fait Accompli which I made in 1981 and shot in Los Angeles, Palm Springs and Ensenada. The track presented here was used for the end credit roll.
A couple of years ago, I asked Bunny if he still had the tracks he recorded for the movie as most of my possessions--personal and professional--had been 'lost at sea' in the late 90s. Bunny told me he was about to move and hoped he might come across the files in the process. Alas, it was not to be and it seemed as though his outstanding scoring and performance was, indeed, lost.
So it was a complete and welcome surprise when the other day I received an email from Bunny informing me he had found the files and would be transferring all the music tracks to me via We Transfer. Today they arrived and I have been enjoying listening to them--a very nice stroll down memory lane for me.

Ray D. Shosay's Journal (excerpt)
"Saturday, January 27, 2007
They say you can fool some of the people all of the time. Accordingly, I think we should concentrate on this group initially. We can move on to the people you can only fool some of the time at a later date if we deem it necessary. I hope to hear back from my agent about this as soon as he's out of rehab, as I don't think my messages have been getting through."

Exerpt from Ignorance is Bliss
"Out of the corner of his eye, Martin saw Martha shift in her seat. She leaned forward, as though something was about to be decided. This caused her breasts to push up against the neckline of her dress in a way that couldn't be fully appreciated out of the corner of one’s eye. So, Martin turned his head to look directly into the abyss of her cleavage. He was vaguely aware that Murray was talking again."

Meeting Enzo Ferrari
I came across this on a late night stroll in Paris near the Louvre.
I bought Bentleys in England and Ferraris & Maseratis in Italy to re-sell in Los Angeles as a teenager. I met Enzo Ferrari, Juan Fangio and Steve McQueen. I 'grew up' on the set of Mission: Impossible and other episodic TV series of the era. For a few years, I owned a Ferrari GTO that is owned by Ralph Lauren today and valued at approximately $52M. I began my film career by writing, producing and directing Montmartre in Paris in French. I founded and ran a repertory company for film & TV for 20 years in Los Angeles. I created a TV series which had fans that included Marlon Brando. I authored the first new acting technique--Action/ReAction--that was not based on Stanislavski's Method. I am currently writing my third novel and shooting my spy thriller Exigence. If you can't make movies, live your life as though you were in one...
