One purpose of Counterpoint was to supplement applications to the film schools at USC and UCLA, the two major feeders for TV and Hollywood, and partly for this reason the picture is flashy--over 400 special lab effects were used. "I tried to run the gamut," says Brown. Right now he's halfway through a tongue-in-cheek version of Robin Hood, based on the Errol Flynn movie and filmed in color with Robert Kennedy Jr. '76 in the leading role.
