...just finished the script, based on the original [movie]. I wrote it with my production sound mixer, which is a new approach for me. I usually start on page one and write stream of consciousness. But I thought it would be cool to work with a guy who's an engineer. Not only is he a horror aficionado, but he has a technical perspective on everything he does.

U.S. museums are particularly benefiting, and not just the usual Louvre partners like New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art. Loyrette set up an unprecedented three-year partnership with the High Museum in Atlanta and has sent exhibitions to cities like Seattle and Oklahoma City. He's also overhauling the museum's internal workings to make it financially viable...
