If you have trouble reading the print head over there, it's a little clearer.
In the article there's a piece by somebody called Anthony Parker with a couple of shots from the movie so it seems this is probably the Tony referred to in the Youtube description.
Some nice pieces on the early days of Yoga in Crete and a particularly nice tribute by John Scott that begins
"Every yoga student remembers their first yoga teacher with love...."
Also on the way to the article via Google I came across this page on Ashtanga.com that I had forgotten all about. A real treasure trove of articles.

Here's a list of the articles they have (their page is the one to bookmark rather than mine, they've spent years compiling it. I'm replicating the list here because I know how we often intend to follow links but don't always get around to it, this should tempt you there's is some incredible stuff there).
