The Human Touch: Human/Nature Winner. It’s no exaggeration to say that André Bauma, the head caretaker at the Senkwekwe Center for orphaned gorillas in Virunga National Park, risks his life daily for the animals in his care. In recent decades, more than 170 rangers have been killed in the park, and the Senkwekwe Center has been overrun by rebels on multiple occasions. Even in these moments, Bauma has never abandoned the center’s gorillas. "Gorilla caretakers with those gorilla orphans? We are the same family," he says. "They know we are their mums." #

I've not seen this image of Miles before today.

It was in this article from Bill King:  https://www.fyimusicnews.ca/articles/2019/05/08/miles-davis-birth-cool

Personally I think that's Don Cheadle.

'Tis.   It's amazing, the number of times I've seen this sort of mistake:  James Stewart as Glenn Miller, Steve Allen as Benny Goodman, Diana Ross as Billie Holiday...  It's almost as frequent as flipped photos of "left-handed trumpets".

I think it's Cheadle too.  While I like him, I don't see Miles when I look at his portrayal, at all.  And I haven't seen the film, is it worth checking out?

I've seen part of the film. Didn't like it, but I generally don't like biopics anyway.

I thought the film was great fun. I didn't take it "seriously" and wouldn't suggest that mindset going in.

No reason to be surprised Roy was dapper then, too.

Wow!  Thank you for posting this picture.  I'll be seeing him next week for the 2nd time this year (11th time altogether).  I can't wait to show my wife this.

Near perfect composition though.
