William Stead's "The Flip Side" Was Official 2019 Festival de Cannes Short Film Corner Selection
A vinyl-loving physics professor at Florida State University emailed to tell me that William Stead, a "brilliant film student" was in his astronomy class and came up to the prof one day and told him he was a huge Bowie fan and that he loved vinyl. Stead made "The Flip Side", a short documentary about Doug and Michelle Allen, owners of Banana Records which I profiled in my Banana Records video, which you can find on the AnalogPlanet YouTube channel.
After you watch Mr. Stead's short film you'll know why his won "Selection for presentation at the 2019 Festival de Cannes Short Film Corner" and mine didn't! Stead's film got me all teary eyed about our hobby. See if you share that reaction.
