The Sweet Sound of Success

It was better late than never as L.A.'s top sound facility Todd-AO and Soundelux celebrated their Oscar wins for "The Bourne Ultimatum" last week at Santa Monica's Hotel Casa Del Mar. At the bash, producer Frank Marshall mingled with re-recording mixer Scott Millan and supervising sound editors Per Hallberg and Karen Baker Landers. The Oscar winners arrived with their kudos so that guests could take pictures with the golden statue. Noting that the 45 seconds allowed during an Oscar acceptance speech was simply not enough time to get out all the necessary thank yous, Hallberg and Landers introduced over twenty co-workers to the crowd so that they too could be recognized for their work.                          (M.
