The tributes to the Beastie Boys' Adam Yauch keep on coming. This Portland tribute has gone viral.

MCA TRIBUTE


Portlandian filmmaker James Winters got his two children and his nephew to act in this faithful (for the most part) facsimile of the original video.

James says on vimeo.com, "So in a couple hours I will fly to Cottonwood, Arizona (where?) to help my dad and cousin pack up the things of my late aunt Melody Winters, who was a musician and seeker. It's going to be interesting to walk away from all this noise and get back to the reality of loss that this is all about. My heart goes out to everyone dealing with death on any level, especially that viscous assassin cancer. Got to remember that life is transitory and temporary. "Oh my god, it's a mirage". Thanks again to everyone out there for feelin' our little home movie. RIP MCA!"
