[Frameworks] Henry Kaiser, Raymond Foye, & Lyle Rexer on "Landscapes: Jordan Belson" (Eric Theise)

[C Keefer]

While we completely respect Henry Kaiser and his work, it is a pity to see
that Jordan's wishes are not being honored. Jordan left specific
instructions that the music not be changed on his films, and denied all
such requests during his lifetime. It is quite possible that Kaiser did not
know of these instructions, but others connected to his estate are aware.

We stand with Belson and his wishes, and do not show his films with
alternate soundtracks. Especially those for which he composed his own
soundtracks. We will honor an artist's wishes regarding his soundtracks and
films.

He also left specific instructions to Anthology not to screen *Cosmos* (he
requested this of everyone, actually), but that's another issue, separate
from the replacing music issue.
