Editing Ted Demme (section)

== Tributes ==
Much of one edition of the [[Independent Film Channel|IFC]] program ''[[Dinner for Five]]'' was given over to a description of Demme's last night and fond reminiscences about his life, mostly by [[Denis Leary]] and the show's host [[Jon Favreau]]. This touched on Demme's being a fan of the [[Green Bay Packers]] and his fondness for playing practical jokes.

At the [[2002 Golden Globes|2002 Golden Globe]] awards show, one week following Demme's death, [[Kevin Spacey]] wore a picture of Demme on his suit jacket.<ref>{{cite news| url=http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/bal-artslife-globes-backstage-jan20,0,3056397.story | work=Chicago Tribune | first=Beth | last=Harris | title=Awards return glitz to Hollywood}}</ref> He was also in the [[74th Academy Awards]] In Memoriam tribute that was also presented by Kevin Spacey.

''[[The Truth About Charlie]]'', his uncle [[Jonathan Demme]]'s remake of ''[[Charade (1963 film)|Charade]]'', was dedicated in his memory.

The 2003 album ''[[Blackberry Belle]]'' by [[The Twilight Singers]] led by [[Greg Dulli]], was written in tribute to Demme, Dulli's close friend. Dulli had been working on another project, titled ''[[Greg Dulli's Amber Headlights|Amber Headlights]]'' (which would later see the light of day in 2005), but abandoned those sessions due to Demme's death. The recordings which followed, fueled in part by the memory of Demme, resulted in ''Blackberry Belle''.

The 2002 film ''[[Punch-Drunk Love]]'', written and directed by [[Paul Thomas Anderson]], is dedicated to Demme.
