Jaz Coleman - Films and Soundtracks

Films and Soundtracks

In 2002 Coleman starred in a Czech film by Petr Zelenka Rok ďábla (Year of the Devil). The film has become a multiple award-winning cult classic (Crystal Globe, Czech Lion). Switching to yet another artistic role, he has been co-directing a documentary-style music film called "The Death And Resurrection Show", named after a song on Killing Joke's 2003 album.

Coleman has contributed to several film soundtracks, such as Walt Disney’s Mulan (1998; with Vanessa-Mae on violin) and UK Channel 4 TV film Cinderella (released on 01/01/2000; music composed by Jaz and Youth). Individual songs appeared in soundtracks like: Weird Science (1985; "Eighties" by Killing Joke), Showgirls (1995; "Hollywood Babylon" by Killing Joke) or Year of the Devil (2002; "Pukaea" by Jaz Coleman and Hinewehi Mohi, "Universe B" and "Exorcism" by Killing Joke).

Famous quotes containing the words films and and/or films:

    If you want to know all about Andy Warhol, just look at the surface: of my paintings and films and me, and there I am. There’s nothing behind it.
    Andy Warhol (c. 1928–1987)

    Right now I think censorship is necessary; the things they’re doing and saying in films right now just shouldn’t be allowed. There’s no dignity anymore and I think that’s very important.
    Mae West (1892–1980)
