General
"The movie was footage shot in Russia but was put together later and narrated by Judith Brodsky, who at one point refers to him as the “late Lou Draper.” Two of the other TAWA artists in the film are also referred to as “late,” Jimmy Colavita and Anne Bobo. Jimmy is the speaker near the beginning of the film at the art gallery opening in Moscow. The quality of the movie is not high but still of historic interest. Lou appears several times but does not speak in it." Email from Gary Saretzky to Courtney Tkacz, Feb. 16, 2021.
