Hi Ed, The only movie where I remember seeing an "early music" instrument that looked like the real thing and also sounded like it as well, was Polanski's "Pirates", from the early 1980's; I was impressed by that short scene of the heroine playing a baroque guitar. I wonder who the studio musician was? There was also a French movie with a gamba player as the hero, "All the Mornings of the World"?, which had the music and instrument accurate, but the actor was obviously playing "air gamba", and not very well, at that. :) James
