What do A Closer Walk and Mr. Big have in common?
Mr. Big (film) Mr. Big is a 2007 documentary directed and produced by Tiffany Burns and edited by Alec MacNeill Richardson. The documentary examines the "Mr. Big" undercover methods used by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). In these operations, RCMP officers pose as gang criminals and develop a relationship with the target in the hope of eventually determining what, if any, knowledge the target has of the crime being investigated. "Mr. Big" operations have been credited with securing difficult convictions in a large number of cases, but concerns have been raised that they involve a risk of false confessions and wrongful convictions.
Jim Robinson (trombonist) Jim Robinson, also known as Big Jim Robinson (December 25, 1892 – May 4, 1976) was an American jazz musician, based in New Orleans, renowned for his deep, wide-toned, robust "tailgate" style of trombone playing, using the slide to achieve a wide swoop between two notes (a technique that classical musicians call "glissando") and rhythmic effects.
