Hi, this is Timothy Potts, Director of the J. Paul Getty Museum, here to answer questions on 11/25 from noon-2p.m. about the Museum and its collection, exhibitions, recent acquisitions and conservation efforts. I look forward to your questions. For more information about the Getty Museum, visit www.getty.edu/museum.
I recall that the now closed up and disgraced Weinstein Company had its rights and kept delaying its US release. Not sure if it ever got a theatrical release in the states.
Please help me I can't find the name

If you're interested in art history, art preservation, exhibit design or any other aspect of museum curation, this is one you won't want to miss.

Please be sure to be here for 12PM PST on November 25th if you'd like to participate in this AMA. The thread will be posted a few hours in advance by one of Dr. Potts' associates to give questions a chance to accumulate before his arrival, so if you have one you'd like to ask it would be best to check in early.
