Wim Wenders stops Pina Bausch movie

BERLIN (Hollywood Reporter) – German director Wim Wenders has stopped production on the planned 3D dance film "Pina" following the death of the film's subject -- the legendary choreographer Pina Bausch.
Bausch, who is often credited with having revolutionized modern dance, died on Tuesday after being diagnosed with cancer only days earlier. She was 68 years' old. She had been preparing the film project with Wenders, which was to be the first dance film shot in 3-D.
Wenders' production company Neue Road Movies said it had stopped all pre-production work on the film. After a mourning period, the company will discuss with Bausch's dance company in Wuppertal whether and how to proceed.

Doubt it- thought I sure as hell hope they come up with someone better than the guy in the office now- because I am sick of the shyt he is pulling....

I met him many (about 25-30) years ago. A that time, he was a little odd, but very nice.

Apparently he has spent much of the time since masturbating.

Coincidence?

I can have that influence on people.

Well, I hope that Bausch's company continues and the film proceeds. Sounds like a 3D dance film would be a great tribute.
