C3 IN MEMORIAM KRIS FENSKE, MPSE Sound Editor (April 12, 1974 – April 12, 2019) 6 years a member BONNIE HARP Lab Film Technician (January 1, 1930 – February 8, 2018) 59 years a member JOHNNY KIRKWOOD Colorist (November 21, 1958 – March 30, 2019) 3 years a member GODFREY K. (BOB) MARKS Sound Editor (February 18, 1922 – May 30, 2019) 65 years a member ANTHONY MAZZEI Sound Editor (May 20, 1954 – April 23, 2019) 35 years a member ROBERT NEEL Engineer (August 4, 1959 – June 7, 2019) 12 years a member KENNETH WERNER Picture Editor (October 10, 1935 – May 8, 2019) 62 years a member GAYLE WESLEY Sound Editor (July 17, 1969 – June 12, 2019) 24 years a member PETER YANOVITCH Lab Film Technician/Negative Cutter (July 23, 1954 – June 10, 2019) 42 years a member to-week, paycheck-to-paycheck," he recalls. "We even had a kitty where we would all throw in five bucks every month so that if you weren't working, you could actually afford to go there." Books and current events are regular topics of club conversation, but movies are always the focus. "It really is a bunch of creative film geeks, getting together and eating steak and drinking martinis and talking about movies," Bell adds. At each meeting, film industry giants who had passed away the previous month would be toasted. In the time he has been frequenting Musso's, Bell has seen the popularity of the restaurant ebb and flow, and says the quality of the steaks has also gone up and down, too. He judges the period from 1993 to 2005 to be "hit or miss," but overall feels Musso's remains the same then and now. "Unfortunately, we just lost two waiters recently — it was actually really kind of a shock that Sergio [Gonzalez] passed away right after Ruben [Rueda]," the editor reflects. "Both of those guys — those were our waiters." But you don't have to be a Carnivore Club member to get the royal treatment at the Musso & Frank Grill. You don't have to be a movie star or a sports hero, either — or even a member of a famous rock 'n' roll band. Earlier this year, to celebrate his birthday, Weber went to Musso's with his wife and a group of friends. The couple went back and forth as they debated where to sit on the big day. "I said, 'Let's see if we can get a reservation at the corner booth in the specific corner of the new room,'" he recounts. "We got it…and the waiter came over and told us, 'You know what booth this is?' And we said, 'No.' He said, 'Well, this is where the Rolling Stones sat.'" On that night, however, the booth belonged to Billy Weber. And it was no Beggar's Banquet. f Actress Paulette Goddard and filmmaker Charles Chaplin (who edited or co- edited over 50 of his classic films uncredited) at Musso's in 1933.
