STEVE JOBS: THE LOST INTERVIEW
Theatrical presentations at select US theaters November 16 & 17
Truly Indie, John Gau Productions, FurnaceTV and NerdTV present STEVE JOBS: THE LOST INTERVIEW in limited showings in select cities, on Wednesday, November 16 & Thursday, November 17. This unique in-theatre presentation came about from recent contact between Robert Cringely, technology writer and expert, and Mark Cuban, co-owner of Landmark Theatres and its parent Wagner/Cuban Companies. Cringely had the compelling content, and Cuban the means to present it. It is being rushed into theatres to allow audiences to witness a key moment with one of the most important figures of our time.
STEVE JOBS: THE LOST INTERVIEW
In 1995 Robert Cringely made Triumph of the Nerds, an epic PBS miniseries about the founding of the personal computer industry that has been seen in more than 60 countries. A highlight of the show was Cringely’s interview with Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in which he sorely criticized Microsoft for making bad products. That candid, controversial, and funny interview with an old associate (Cringely had worked for Jobs at one time) was by far the best TV interview Jobs ever gave. Yet less than 10 minutes were used in the series and the other 59 minutes were lost forever when the master tapes disappeared in shipping.
Until now….
An unedited copy of the entire Jobs interview was discovered recently in London. Restored and improved, yet completely original and unedited, STEVE JOBS: THE LOST INTERVIEW will be playing select screenings at Landmark Theaters in 19 cities beginning November 16.
Jobs is the design icon and cranky genius who grew Apple 100-fold into the most valuable company in America by revolutionizing computers, music, movies, telephones, and more. STEVE JOBS: THE LOST INTERVIEW is a fascinating piece of history, as well as a unique look into the mind of an American business genius. Most importantly, it offers fresh insight and a deep understanding of a man who changed our world.
The running time for STEVE JOBS: THE LOST INTERVIEW is 70 minutes; it is not rated. It is directed by Paul Sen.
