Katy Perry California Dream tour costume from Part of Me on display...

To help promote Katy Perry's behind-the-scenes documentary movie Part of Me, ArcLight Hollywood cinema had this candy confection of a costume from the pop singer's California Dream concert tour on display in its foyer on June 30, 2012.

The outfit created by Erin Lareau is worn on stage by the pop star on her recent world tour and featured in the Part of Me movie, which chronicles the singer's life on and off stage. I think it's also the costume featured in the mirror image billboard for the movie too.

The Cove documentary covert filming equipment on display...

In the 1960's, Richard O'Barry was the world's leading authority on dolphin training, working on the popular TV show 'Flipper'. Following ten years in the industry, O'Barry realised his mistakes and has been campaigning to return dolphins held in captivity to the wild ever since.

The Cove tells the story of how the Director Louie Psihoyos (and co-founder of the Oceanic Preservation Society), O'Barry and an elite team of activists, filmakers and freedivers, embarked on a covert mission to penetrate a hidden cove in Japan and shine the light on a dark secret, that 23,000 dolphins are being barbarically slaughtered in the village of Taiji every year.

Clandestine filming and recording equipment were placed in trees, on the cliffs and underwater, both to film the secretive slaughter of these dolphins, but also to hear the chilling final sounds of these creatures as they faced death.

The film is compelling viewing and makes you reconsider everything you know about dolphins held in captivity for our amusement.
