From Jian Xiao, who headed up the restoration of 1934 Chinese silent film classic "The Goddess", which Gary recently accompanied with his original live solo score at the Transylvania International Film Festival:
"Thank you very much Mr. Gary Lucas for playing your live solo guitar soundtrack for "The Goddess" at TIFF. This film is about a tragedy in early Shanghai, China. Gary Lucas uses his guitar plus his understanding of the film to show the essence of the film vividly. At the climax of the film, his guitar score drives the audience to tears. This is the best time I've seen famous diva actress Ruan Lingyu's show-stopping scene driven by music outside of China. Lucas' score promotes the integration of Eastern and Western cultures, so that European audiences can better understand the film."
