if you understand the normal distribution you had damn well better know that there are other probability distributions .\nhowever , a single individual can be richer than the poorest 2 billion humans . so wealth follows a scale independent distribution .\nthe issue was not just that these distributions displayed taleb characteristics : these market activities were devised with taleb characteristics in mind .\ni have several times in this column described the taleb distribution of regular small profits interspersed by large losses . taleb distributions are the basis of the carry trade \u2013 which exploits interest rate differentials \u2013 and many types of statistical arbitrage . taleb distributions are exploited by traders in hedge funds and at proprietary trading desks .\nthere are other , less abstruse examples . drinking more than is good for us has a taleb distribution . so does smoking \u2013 after all , most smokers do not get lung cancer .\nholy grail distribution is a missing piece in almost every investment portfolio seeking protection from tail risk events combined with positive average returns .\nexactly . i ' m astounded that this basic fact - that financial modelers have been using the wrong distribution for decades is not being denounced . for example , the capital asset pricing model ( capm ) which assumes that returns fall on a normal distribution .\nof what you wrote , but i think you should reread your reply to taleb with as much scrutiny as you read taleb .\nthere are business lessons to be drawn from the bad habits of french drivers . we need to beware of activities whose outcomes have a taleb distribution \u2013 many small gains punctuated by occasional large losses .\nrealization by who ? if you understand the normal distribution you had damn well better know that there are other probability distributions .\nkay goes on to add that governments yesterday as well as today appear to creating responses that are once again premised on the tailgating distribution .\npeople rarely check how closely their data conform to the standard distribution ; indeed , many people blindly apply the standard deviation to their data regardless of its distribution ! the resulting number is often more obfuscatory than helpful , to the extent that it crowded out more useful summaries .\nin other words , we ' re using the normal distribution as the workhorse because considering other distributions is , well , inefficient / unproductive .\nthe name holy grail distribution captures both the difficulty of finding a strategy with these characteristics and the unique value it provides to an asset allocator .\nthe truth is that most times we don\u2019t know the probability distribution at all . because the world is not a predictable casino game \u2014 an error nassim taleb calls the ludic fallacy \u2014 the best we can do is guess .\ntaleb has a good point about people mistakenly interpreting standard deviation ( sigma ) as mean absolute deviation ( mad ) . i like that he gives some conversions ( sigma ~ = 1 . 25 * mad , for normal distribution ) .\nit is hard to deliver returns with holy grail distribution using only replication and generally available asset classes ; such returns have to be\nengineered\n. at the same time , allocation to investment instruments and strategies with holy grail distribution of returns may provide clear benefits of diversification and protection from periodic market - performance shocks .\nwell , frequentist methods are taking the blame for the most recent financial crisis , such as assuming a normal distribution when the empirical one is fat - tailed .\nperhaps the bayesian methods will take the blame in the next financial crisis . such as the error in estimating a non - stationary distribution and quantifying the uncertainty .\n[ \u2026 ] out scott locklin\u2019s brutal takedown of our favorite blowhard , nassim taleb . the only part i disagree with it where locklin calls taleb [ \u2026 ]\ni didn\u2019t read taleb carefully enough to know whether he was targeting only quants .\ncompute - intensive statistical tests , which are data - driven and make fewer assumptions about the underlying distribution , can give tighter confidence intervals and detect statistical significance better .\ncan we escape the taleb problem ? understanding risk is the prelude to managing it . we know instinctively that the tailgating driver is not really smart \u2013 and nor is the high - yield bond trader . taleb exploits his distribution by looking for its opposite : trading strategies in securities markets that offer frequent small losses and occasional large gains .\nhowever described , it is the same thing : a distribution of returns that produces frequent small profits punctuated by occasional very large losses . a high proportion of trading \u2013 and business \u2013 strategies in financial markets have this tailgating characteristic . i call it the taleb distribution , after the author of fooled by randomness ( an earlier , and better , book than the more widely read black swan ) , which gives numerous instances .\ntaleb ' s favorite topic is the\nblack swan event\nwhich is something that the normal distribution , and the idea of standard deviation , don ' t model that well . in a normal distribution very extreme events should only happen once in the lifetime of several universes . of course assuming variation inline with a gaussian process is at the heart of how the black - sholes model calculates risk / volatility / etc .\ni sometimes think that progress in the 21st century will be summed up as :\nthe realization that the normal distribution is not the only way to model data\n.\na distribution built from mad will more closely resemble the reality of the s & p returns , and will create more robust models . there are many examples of this .\nadditionally , i will mention that we do not need normal distributions to make special the idea of standard deviations . in fact , it is the geometry of probability - the fact that independent random variables have standard deviations which\npoint\nin orthogonal directions - which causes the normal distribution to be the resulting distribution of the central limit theorem .\ngee , d\u2019ya think so bub ? maybe i should go have some acupuncture done to harmonize my narcissism . taleb as schindler ? how about taleb as jesus sufferin\u2019 christ ?\nvery nice ! i did have his books on my reading list . but this whole discussion definitely puts me closer to the\nwaste of my time\nside of the distribution .\ni never heard about taleb distributiom , is my first time sounds interesting . . . .\nthe fact you largely resort to attacking straw men rather than taleb\u2019s actual arguments says everything .\ni was initially very curious about your post . finding a substantive argument against taleb\u2019s thinking is actually quite difficult to track down . imagine my disappointment when i discovered your post was mostly an ad hominem review of taleb the man rather than an measured analysis of taleb\u2019s ideas .\nltcm had lots of small up months and a few large down months . this is not detected by the sharpe ratio as it assumes a symmetry in the distribution of returns . \u2013 nnt\nwhat is more , his idea of black swans is not original , every experienced investor is aware that stock returns don\u2019t follow a predictable distribution , that the end outcomes are extremely uncertain .\nthe pareto distribution , better known as the 80 / 20 rule , states that 80 % of the effects come from 20 % of the causes . for example , in most businesses 20 % of clients will generate 80 % of the income , 20 % of clients will generate the most customer service requests and so on . taleb argues that we\u2019re moving to a 99 / 1 distribution , away from 80 / 20 . this shift has profound implications for our economy and society .\non page 240 , taleb writes that gauss , in using the normal distribution , \u201cwas a mathematician dealing with a theoretical point , not making claims about the structure of reality like statistical - minded scientists . \u201d i don\u2019t have my stigler right here , but i\u2019d always understood that gauss developed least squares and the normal distribution in the context of fitting curves to astronomical observations . sure he did lots of pure math , but he ( and laplace ) were doing empirical science too .\nyou have provided an interesting comment to taleb , but there are several things you are missing .\nthank god somebody else out there sees that taleb is as mad as a bag of bats .\npeople ask why people get the heckles up about taleb , and it isn ' t actually about taleb at all . it ' s about the , for lack of a better phrase , taleb\nfan boys\n. bizarre that such a thing exists , but people like having their prophet .\ntaleb distributions are good when you have experienced only the upside . a taleb distribution led to the crises in the lloyd\u2019s insurance market . excess - of - loss policies \u2013 t he lmx spiral \u2013 insured other syndicates against losses of unprecedented magnitude . the underwriters pointed out that they had taken in premiums for many years and paid nothing out . you do not have to be as smart as taleb to see the flaw but you do have to be a little smarter than the feltrim and gooda walker syndicates .\nyet , taleb\u2019s writing makes all those assumptions . if you can fill in the missing steps , then you will find that taleb provides a strong argument for why and how we got to this point .\nthank you . i don ' t think it is intellectually honest for taleb to omit this fact .\n> also he alludes to his paper with goldstein . it is clear form goldstein and taleb ' s manuscript that that taleb is not just throwing these arguments to talk trash about practitioners of statistics . they\nmany apparently successful traders and business people are still on the upside of their taleb distribution . they are accidents waiting to happen . it puzzled me for years that so many organisations believed they were making money out of proprietary trading in securities markets . these businesses were trading mostly with each other : since there is no perpetual motion , where did the money to fuel the system come from ? from taleb distributions .\nwhat taleb failed to mention is that , once properly understood , standard deviation has distribution interpretations that can be much more useful than mad . for example , if the data is approximately normally distributed , then there is approximately a 99 . 99 % probability that the next data observation will be < = 4 * sigma .\ntaleb , the non - experts , expert non - expert . or something . too jokes , anyway .\nthis is actually what i expected to read :\nthe standard deviation is useful because with the average and the standard deviation , one can fully characterize a normal distribution . however , the standard deviation is less useful a statistical summary the farther away from ' normal ' you get , and in reality , there is no such thing as a normal distribution , as a true normal distribution is defined on the entire real number line from negative infinity to positive infinity . reality always provides some bound , and it ' s often quite distorted from guassian . for instance , a ' normal ' distribution averaging 2 with a standard deviation of 1 . 4 , bounded by 0 , is quite non - gaussian in many important ways ! ( not least of which is that you ' re going to have to do something to replace the missing probability . . . )\ngreat article btw . i used to adore taleb\u2019s fbr , but that was before i entered the world of finance and trading . taleb tends to repeat the obvious , and so tbs didn\u2019t do too much for me .\nhis essential black - swan point is that extreme uncertainties cannot be parameterized by any distribution , that we fool ourselves when we translate \u201cuncertainty\u201d into \u201crisk\u201d as characterized by any distribution . it\u2019s a good point , it\u2019s as old as the hills , but it\u2019s a good point\u2026the rest of black - swan expounds on the biases that comform us in parameterizing risk ; e . g . , excel has cells for numbers , so the numbers must mean something\nthe normal distribution is fantastic in that it does appear frequently in nature , is very well behaved , and has been extensively studied . however a great amount of future progress is going to come from wrestling with more challenging distributions , and paying more attention to when assumptions of normality need to be questioned . of course one of the challenges of this is that the normal distribution is baked into a very large number of our existing statistical tools .\nit\u2019s an argument that\u2019s well known , and pretty much irrelevant . as aaron brown put it , \u201c ( taleb\u2019s book ) reads as if taleb has never heard of nonparametric methods , data analysis , visualization tools or robust estimation\u201d\nsecond , absolute nails sentiment that taleb engenders , i\u201dve read his books and i\u2019ve listened to him , but he never seems to get beyond the obvious ( fat tails , gaussian distribution\u2026yes\u2026we know that\u2026thanks\u2026 ) he didn\u2019t convince me that he actually is a true quant with a meaningful , progressive self - critique . this makes sense of the posturing .\nbut please , keep buying china inc . more money for guys like taleb once the markets come crashing down again .\nit would be nice to think taleb\u2019s contribution to intellectual discourse is a net positive . i don\u2019t agree , obviously .\nto reiterate , there ' s nothing wrong with the normal distribution . we ' re not about to retire addition or subtraction just because there are\nplenty of people who don ' t really realize\nthere ' s more to math .\ncould you sketch out why similar statements couldn ' t be made about mad ? my ( possibly flawed ) intuition is that the expected proportion of observations within n \\ * mad should be similarly independent of the parameters of the normal distribution .\nthe standard deviation and assumptions of normality are so useful because of the central limit theorem . that is , if you have many iid variables which have finite standard deviation the sum will converge to a gaussian distribution as the number of variables increases .\nif taleb\u2019s arguments were obvious in the way you suggest , clearly there would not be a market for them . simple .\ni understand from the papers that taleb is now in a big fight with merton . i agree with him on that .\nfor five years until 2004 spitznagel and taleb ran empirica , a hedge fund very similar to universa that in its short tenure generated low double - digit returns . after taleb became seriously ill the duo shut the fund . taleb has since given up money management to teach risk management at polytechnic institute of nyu in brooklyn , write books and advise foreign governments on his theories .\ni disagree with your comparison of taleb to popper . popper would write things which occasionally made sense . feyeraband and taleb seem to be more of the \u201cmakin\u2019 raspberries\u201d school of disputation . throwing kuhn in there \u2026 at least kuhn eventually repented of his sins .\ntaleb\u2019s antics are what he sells . nobody actually cares about his criticisms of specific models : it\u2019s rare that he actually makes any . were taleb out there criticizing actual quant models , you know , by naming them , then stating in clear unequivocal terms where they don\u2019t work and why , and maybe even points out a useful alternative , i would be a taleb fan . hell , in that event , i would be a taleb sahabah ; companion to the prophet . instead taleb goes on television and the ft and blurts out that \u201cnobody knows nuthin . \u201d as such , the just argument against a stupid head is a clenched fist .\ni also like how a lot of the people attacking taleb here , are making exactly the mistakes he describes in his books .\nas of late on new year ' s day , i have still not heard from taleb via email . just too busy .\nnassim taleb on the notion of alternative histories \u2014 \u201cthe quality of a decision cannot be solely judged based on its outcome . \u201d\nif data is drawn from a laplace distribution of the form p ( x ) = exp ( - | x | ) , the mean absolute deviation is more informative than the standard deviation , but if its form is close to the normal , p ( x ) = exp ( - x ^ 2 ) , the standard deviation is more important . so whether to use the mean absolute or standard deviation depends on the distribution of the data . there is a field called robust statistics that looks at this question .\ntaleb\u2019s books introduced me to seneca and stoicism and a whole area of a psychological biases that i hadn\u2019t really spent much time considering or thinking about beforehand or reading . other books cover these areas better . for stoicism , actually reading seneca\u2019s letters or marcus aurelius\u2019s meditations is better than reading taleb\u2019s version of it . for psychological biases , actually reading daniel kahneman is better than reading taleb . it sounds like in the areas where you agree with taleb with finance or math , you think a person would gain better understanding elsewhere .\nthe central limit theorem shows us that unimodal data with lots of independent sources of error tends towards a normal distribution . that description is a good first - pass , descriptive model for lots and lots of contexts , and standard deviation speaks well to normally distributed data .\ni just have a simple question for taleb\u2019s defenders . i\u2019d love to know where he has offered more than the following two ideas :\naug . 16 \u2014 nassim nicholas taleb , adviser at universa investments , sat down for an interview with erik schatzker tuesday evening in new york . taleb , famous for his assessment of risk , says there are greater risks out there than nuclear war with north korea .\nthe holy grail distribution has a positive mean to justify the instrument ' s permanent role in the asset allocation framework . its positive fat tail , which is\nco - located\nwith the left tail of other instruments , adds protection to investment portfolios during tail risk events .\nodd enough . i think he\u2019s smeared buffet and charlie munger as \u201clucky\u201d before , though i may be confusing taleb with burton malkiel here .\nthis article is based on paper taleb published in 2007 . if you want to test yourself , submit yourself to experiment in page 3 :\nkey point number one in this memo is that the future should be viewed not as a fixed outcome that\u2019s destined to happen and capable of being predicted , but as a range of possibilities and , hopefully on the basis of insight into their respective likelihoods , as a probability distribution .\ni don\u2019t have a problem with your comments about taleb , because he\u2019s never interested me enough to pay attention to what he has to say .\ntaleb the philosopher observes that when it comes to the preservation and perpetuation of life , negative advice is more useful \u2013 the thou shalt nots .\nyour post was in reply to someone asking about taleb ' s black swans so i assumed you were talking about 2008 in reference to that .\nnassim nicholas taleb , fooled by randomness : the hidden role of chance in the markets and in life , new york : texere , 2001 .\nthis is hardly a matter of trust , anton . scott has pointed you in the direction of the relevant academic literature as regards taleb\u2019s revival of the long - shot lure . and if you want to know what an expert in extreme value theory thinks of taleb , you can read this :\nof course taleb would not offer a useful alternative . he says repeatedly that there is no useful alternative . throw them all away ! ! ! !\ni just came across this taleb interview made in february 2008 , about taleb\u2019s view on simons . taleb says verbatim answering the 4th question ( about buffet ) : . . the only two people i think who are not lucky ; there is soros and then there is the other gentleman from renaissance . simons , he is not lucky . he is beyond . there is no exposure to uncertainty on his models . \u201d the video is here : urltoken\nthat ' s not interesting ? i think the difference between theory and practice is intensely interesting , and taleb has a lot to say about it .\nno . it is the ideology of dissing taleb . obviously i am not his paid spokesperson . but please argue to the merit of his arguments .\nmore interesting will be how the fda takes into account the arguments that taleb and co put forward . expect fireworks in the coming weeks and months .\nmany economists and , by direct extension , financiers thought they had quantified all forms of risk . by quantifying all forms of risk , you can compute the first derivative . taleb and scores of others argued that all risk cannot be quantified . taleb made this argument long before the publication of black swan .\nahhh taleb\u2026 you got to hand it to taleb , he has a huge head for heights , but has he really got those \u201cstreet smarts\u201d he so oft speaks of ? its quite obvious that the success of dynamic hedging had an funny ( ha ) effect on him . barking mad ? definately maybe .\nwhat about bank\u2019s debt converted into equity ? ? ! ! ! this was after all the quantitative easing , only taleb transferred the concept to individual consumers .\nmaybe taleb is in fact the genius he sets out to prove himself to be . after all , he did come up with a seemingly valid formula :\nfor the most part , taleb criticizes everything but he never offers any solutions . his observations when they make sense are trivial , like tails are fat .\n[ \u2026 ] scott locklin on nassim nicholas taleb . akpc _ ids + =\n126 ,\n;

standard deviation is far more natural , and more useful , than mad .\nstill , i think that non - parametric methods are much more valuable as a solution to dealing with non - normal data than what taleb is proposing .\n> the problem of course is that the cauchy distribution is pathological in that it doesn ' t have a mean or variance , you can calculate similar properties for it ( location and scale ) , but it doesn ' t obey the central limit theorem so in practice it can be very strange to work with .\na key difference between these types of risks is the statistical structure of their impact . this structure is either dependent on scale or independent of scale . an example of a scale - dependent distribution is the weight of an adult human which is generally never greater than about 10 times the weight of an average human .\nalso he alludes to his paper with goldstein . it is clear form goldstein and taleb ' s manuscript that that taleb is not just throwing these arguments to talk trash about practitioners of statistics . they report findings of an experiment with multiple groups of applied statisticians . i ' ll quote from it [ 1 ] :\nanother solution to the problem of hedging tail risk events is to have a complementary strategy with a performance pattern that helps reduce the impact of market performance shocks . an instrument with a returns distribution featuring a positive mean and a fat , right ( positive ) tail that is realized just when traditional portfolios take a hit .\nthe black swan book ? really , it\u2019s like taleb found a way to fill his publisher\u2019s ink cartridges with crap before having the manuscript sent to the printers .\nexcellent ! another entertaining piece of fiction . much shorter than the first , but since i\u2019m a complete unknown and taleb is well - known that\u2019s only appropriate .\nthere is no snark in my post : i am outright calling taleb a false prophet who is guilty of exactly the things he criticizes in fooled by randomness .\nby the way , i studied some stock rates to see taleb ' s arguments , a thing i normally wouldn ' t do . see my blog above .\ntagged with black swans , delta hedging , implied volatility , nassim taleb , nickels in front of a steamroller , options , vix , volatility , volatility arbitrage .\ni don\u2019t think the essential criticism is that taleb is hysterical .

writer in quantitative finance at present is nassim taleb . his latest screed in the financial times is what spurred me to write this post . the article wasn\u2019t entirely written by taleb - though i guess the other guy is his fund partner , so it is no surprise that it suffers from all the mush headed absurdity of taleb\u2019s other articles and books . i won\u2019t pick on the other guy ; or even mention his name : he\u2019s got a job to do , and he has the good manners to not make himself a public figure . taleb , on the other hand , is sort of the paul feyerabend of quantitative finance . like feyerabend , he is well read , a good writer and quite charming . like feyerabend , taleb seems to earn his daily bread by showing up and being kind of witty . finally , both feyerabend and taleb are very much against method . this means , effectively , they\u2019re both intellectual nihilists . feyerabend thought we couldn\u2019t know anything for various reasons too silly to get into right now . taleb thinks all of quantitative finance is nonsense and we should do away with quants . i am guessing the former\u2019s delusions had something to do with drinking the same berkeley tapwater in the 1960s which made everyone else believe in crazy things , but taleb was a trader , and it\u2019s a common prejudice of traders to dislike quants for cutting into their p / l .\nif you want to make that argument , then you need to look at popper . indeed , taleb\u2019s writing and logic are much closer to popper than any of the relativists .\nthe problem that taleb is generally referring to in financial models ( and those are the published models , not proprietary models ) is that they use statistical concepts founded from physics .\ni don ' t agree with your ' vile idiot ' statement but i mostly concur with your thoughts . i hope that you don ' t let taleb affect your senescence .\nthe appeal of any popular mountebank is best summed up by p . t . barnum : there is one born every minute . had taleb been an honest writer , he might have educated his readers on the concept of \u201csample bias . \u201d but if taleb were an honest writer , nobody would read his stuff . smugness is a lot cheaper than understanding .\ni guess i share taleb ' s problems with models . even before i read taleb i would say to myself\nthe map is not the territory\n, particularly with regard to software abstractions . i think the space between the model and reality is where you find a lot of interesting things ( including the ability to make a lot of money ) .\nsecond , in regard to conglac2009\u2019s ( michael\u2019s ) comment , taleb shouldn\u2019t be requiring , or expecting , ft readers to read his prior books before reading an op -

involved that it made it impossible for me to finish .\ni actually love taleb ' s books ( black swan , antifragile ) . and i work with\ndata scientists\n, most with ph . d . s , many in statistics .\nyou ' re late ! taleb began publishing his arguments years ago and continues to publish . you ' re way behind . read his papers and read his books in the following order :\ni was a senior quant at renaissance ( simons ' outfit ) working on options among other things . what ' s annoying about taleb is the overtones that every one else in the business is a moron . does he really think that simons believes market moves are normally distributed ? indeed i wrote a paper internal to renaissance on the distribution of tail area moves . taleb seems to think that these can ' t be modeled , but i have never understood his reasons for thinking that . there is a whole area of statistics (\nextreme value theory\n) which seemed to me to apply well to financial data . our data in renaissance yielded quite good models , which i ' ve no reason to think have broken down with the market crash .\n\u00ab the world has lost trillions \u00bb the world has made and then lost trillions of paper gains and then losses . \u00ab through the hands of risk managers and courtesy their models based on gaussian distribution and other quantitative techniques . \u00bb courtesy of their using whatever mathematical technique looked likely to underestimate risks and lead to higher papers profits and cash bonuses by requiring less than prudential reserves .\nonce we ' ve considered that little exercise above , we can almost deduce what taleb distribution is . it describes a situation that has very steady , consistent gains but has a hugely skewed risk / reward profile . so we can transfer this idea to trading forex , for the purpose of any calculations we will assume that the round trip cost of trading eurusd equates to 1 pip after commissions - of course this will vary with market liquidity . this strategy is commonly employed by major hedge funds and is commonly referred to as\npicking pennies up ahead of a steamroller\nnassim taleb criticized pinker\u2019s arguments a few years ago , arguing that pinker didn\u2019t take proper account of the statistical nature of war as a historical phenomenon , specifically as a time series of events characterized by fat tails . such processes naturally have long periods of quiescence , which get ripped apart by tumultuous upheavals , and they lure the mind into mistaken interpretations . pinker responded , clarifying his view , and the quotes above come from that response . pinker acknowledged the logical possibility of taleb\u2019s view , but suggested that taleb had \u201cno evidence that is true , or even plausible . \u201d\nit ' s a useful metric when treated carefully , but it is rare to encounter it treated carefully . science courses would be well - served to stop teaching it in favor of a stronger emphasis on multiple distributions . ( multiple distributions are usually touched upon , but implicitly our curricula overfavor the gaussian distribution and end up accidentally implicitly convincing students its the only one . )\nthis has nothing to do with taleb and everything to do with genuine intellectual inquiry . if academics were thinkers rather than followers , it would be possible to prevent the gross abuse of paradigms .\nauthor of ' the black swan ' and ' fooled by randomness ' former trader nassim nicholas taleb illustrates the concept of the ' barbell strategy ' - a risk hedging strategy robust to losses .\nassume these experiences were drawn from the bell - shaped normal distribution on which such claims are generally based . if i were to write down as a percentage the probability that goldman sachs would encounter three 25 standard deviation events followed by a 20 standard deviation event , the next 15 lines of this column would be occupied by zeros . such things simply do not occur . so what did ?\npeople have a natural bias to look at returns and not to look at possible losses ,\nsays taleb .\nif you reduce big losses , your overall returns will be higher .\nhowever , taleb is not a relativist nor is he logical positivist , which is what most economics faculty are . he is a falsificationist . in my limited experience , most research methodologists are falsificationists .\ni also agree with taleb that ducks are occasionally black and that water is generall wet . that doesn\u2019t make the rest of what he says less idiotic . go back and read what i wrote .\n[ \u2026 ] had thought that truly great polemic was dead and gone . i was wrong . it\u2019s directed at nassim taleb , the black swan guy and here\u2019s a sample : mountebanks [ \u2026 ]\nlike taleb , you remain unable to name one of them models , or suggest a useful alternative . stating that \u201cmodels sometimes don\u2019t work\u201d is as useful as \u201csometimes boats sink . \u201d stating where they don\u2019t work , why , and how to fix them is useful . taleb is not useful , relevant or even much of anything beyond a third rate charlatan who impresses the rubes with big words .\na central challenge of strategy is that we have to make choices now , but the payoffs occur in a future environment we cannot fully know or control . a critical step in embracing uncertainty is to try to characterize exactly what variety of it you face\u2014a surprisingly rare activity at many companies . our work over the years has emphasized four levels of uncertainty . level one offers a reasonably clear view of the future : a range of outcomes tight enough to support a firm decision . at level two , there are a number of identifiable outcomes for which a company should prepare . at level three , the possible outcomes are represented not by a set of points but by a range that can be understood as a probability distribution . level four features total ambiguity , where even the distribution of outcomes is unknown .\non sept . 10 , 2009 former trader and bestselling author nassim taleb did something that he very seldom does : he wore a tie . taleb has oftentimes publicly expressed his distaste for the blood - constraining artifacts , as well as for those who tend to don them , so the lebanese - american let the world know that was a very special day for him by betraying a sacred personal disposition .\n[ \u2026 ] 21 , 2009 scott locklin dismisses taleb in a recent post . i won\u2019t get into the quant debate , as i\u2019m not qualified to judge , but i will pick up [ \u2026 ]\nwhile i am not a taleb fan ( he had his own black swan and became exactly the reviled expert his own books warn us about ) , your hostility in this case seems out of place .\ndescription : author of ' the black swan ' and ' fooled by randomness ' former trader nassim nicholas taleb illustrates the concept of the ' barbell strategy ' - a risk hedging strategy robust to losses .\nif you are scratching your head in utter confusion , do not worry . i will continue to delve into this topic with examples and pictures so that we can all grasp the basics . the general idea for the strategy is that options inherently trade at an implied volatility that is higher than realized volatility on average . some academics ( nassim taleb ) believe that options trade at a higher implied volatility because black - scholes assumes a normal , bell shaped , distribution in stock returns . we can all agree that stock returns are anything but normal after going through the extreme volatility of 2008 . in fact , during the 4th quarter of 2008 the s & p 500 had moves in excess of + / - 5 % during 25 % of the trading days . if we assume that the s & p 500 has a long - term standard deviation of 20 % on average , then a 5 % daily move is in excess of 4 standard deviations . in a nutshell , equity markets are fat - tailed , meaning that observations that are far away from the mean happen much more frequently than a normal distribution can account for . nassim taleb would argue that these \u201cblack swan\u201d events more than wipe out the small profits from selling options .\nanother problematic example comes from taleb\u2019s disdain for mathematics in economics . he has misstated his case . a minority of economics , finance , and marketing faculty believe that economics has become nothing more than calculus . taleb\u2019s disdain comes from falsificationists\u2019 philosophy . there are two types of theories : theories that have been disproved ( e . g . , newtonian physics ) and theories that cannot be disproved given current research methods .\nfunny , i\u2019m pretty sure the sharpe ratio does pretty well at noticing that taleb\u2019s fund is a massive pile of suck . feel free to pick any other performance metric : yearly returns , cumulative returns , sortino ratio , bias ratio ; doesn\u2019t matter : his fund still amounts to \u201ccapital assets destruction model . \u201d wheras betting against taleb\u2019s dumb strat is a good business , and tail risks can apparently be managed .\n> taleb doesn ' t point one situation when mad works better than sd ( i pointed out some where sd works better than mad ) he also doesn ' t address obvious problems which such substitutions create .\nyou state that\nstandard deviation tells you how volatile measurements are\n. but taleb shows how financial markets are non - gaussian and have\nfat tails\nand gives the data and the supporting arguments .\nthough , i do not fully agree to the second part of your analysis as i think you miss taleb\u2019s point . \u2013 a black swan event is by definition unex\u0001p\u0001ected . the best we can do is hedge against those events . when taleb says one shall be long on options , it is only a matter of the capped loss they provide ( even if the payoff may be lower than selling options ) . you may make less money than in shorting implied volatility , but you are hedged against a potential black swan . you\u2019re saying taleb being wrong does not make sense at that particular point , as you\u2019re target is different .\nfor nearly more than 50 years , going back to lewis fry richardson , it\u2019s been known that the cumulative distribution of wars by size follows a rough power law , the number of events larger than size s being proportional to 1 / s raised to an exponent \u03b1 . this is also an approximation , of course , because there is an absolute maximum possible size for a conflict \u2014 it can\u2019t be more than then entire population . hence , the power law form can only hold over a certain range . to take this into account , cirillo and taleb also rescale the data to take into account the finite size of the human population ."]}

did every inspired person speak in a single different language and together they were speaking the languages of all the nations ? was it one sound emanating and changed during transmission so that the hearers heard their own language ? if it was a miracle of hearing , what was that sound ? were the people conscious of what they were saying or were they completely overtaken by a divine power and had no comprehension about what they were speaking ? was it a heavenly , non - human or prayer language ? did this miracle continue after the first - century ? how did this tongues - event get passed down to the next generation ? did it become part of the church liturgy ?\nas a person who attends a charismatic church and involved in these type of communities for decades , i wanted the results to parallel their experiences . unfortunately , the findings did not allow for this . everyone who approaches the 2000 year narrative on speaking in tongues has to allow history to speak for itself \u2013 not to rewrite history to justify contemporary experience .\na more contemporary example is reinhard bonnke . bonnke is a german - born evangelist whose work in africa , especially nigeria has earned him the rank of one the top preachers of all time in respect to audience reach . the example here is his public speaking in tongues at a large indoor gathering somewhere in asia . his christ for the nations website claims over 55 million documented decisions for christ under his ministry .\nthese are the families of the sons of noah , after their generations , in their nations : and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood .\ndor\u00e9 based his tower of babel on the minaret of the great mosque of samarra , in present day iraq . the minaret is 52 m high and has a spiralling cone .\ni will ascend above the heights of the clouds ;

( 1 ) as to the preceding topics , what has been already said will be sufficient . we might next proceed to consider , and that in no slight or cursory manner , the philosophical account which moses gives us of the confusion of languages ; for he speaks in the following manner :\nand all the earth had one pronunciation , and there was one language among all men . and it came to pass , as they were moving from the east , that they found a plain in the land of shinar , and dwelt there . and one man said to his neighbour , come , let us make bricks , and let us burn them with fire ; and they had bricks for stone , and asphalt for mortar . and they said , come , let us build ourselves a city , and a tower whose head shall reach to heaven ; and let us make for ourselves a name , before we are scattered over the face of all the earth . and the lord came down to see the city , and the tower , which the sons of men had builded . and the lord said , behold , all mankind is one race , and there is but one language among them all ; and they have begun to do this thing , and now there will not fail unto them anything of all the things which they desire to do . come , let us go down and confuse their language there , so that each may not understand the voice of his neighbour . and the lord scattered them from thence over the face of all the earth , and they desisted from building the city , and the tower . on this account , the name of it was called confusion , because there the lord confused the languages of all the earth , and from thence the lord scattered them over the face of all the earth .\n{ 1 } { # ge 11 : 1 . }\nso the lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth : and they left off to build the city .\nif biblical archaeology is defined loosely as \u201cthe study of the ancient things related to the bible , . . .\nhe disappointeth the devices of the crafty , so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise .\nthis event sent by god was the ultimate cause of the early separation of mankind , their dispersal throughout the earth , and their division into races and nations .\none of the primary areas of the near east where civilization began is the tigris - euphrates river valley , comprising portions of modern syria and iraq . this region , the fertile valley between the two rivers , has been known since the times of the ancient greeks as mesopotamia , literally \u201cthe land between the rivers . \u201d this area of course was the home of many peoples familiar to us from general ancient history and the old testament , such as the assyrians and babylonians . before these peoples a group known as the sumerians , the creators of classic mesopotamian culture , inhabited the southern part of the valley . how and when did civilization start in this region ? in order to at least partially answer this question , we will need to examine both written and archaeological source material . the earliest of that archaeological material comes from cultures in the valley that did not as yet know the art of writing .\nmetaethicists have long been interested in the meaning of the words ' good ' , ' ought ' , and ' reasons ' . many are persuaded that , although we might analyze one or another of these words in terms of the others , there ' s no breaking out of the circle of normative concepts when explaining the meaning of such words . this has led to the prominence of three main kinds of metaethical view . nonnaturalists explain the irreducibility of the meaning of normative words by claiming that normative words denote sui generis normative properties , supervenient on but not identical to natural properties . a posteriori reductive naturalists explain this irreducibility by claiming that normative words express different concepts from words characteristic of description of the natural facts , but they propose ( or at least hold out hope for ) a substantive empirical reduction of the properties denoted by these words to natural properties . expressivists explain the irreducibility by claiming that normative words play a fundamentally different role in expressing our mental states to that played by words expressing representations of pieces of the natural world .\nstephen finlay is associate professor of philosophy at the university of southern california . he is the author of

apologetics ministry dedicated to demonstrating the historical reliability of the bible through archaeological and biblical research .\nthere is , however , a rich tradition in moral philosophy of insisting that moral ends aren ' t like this . aristotle argued that living morally isn ' t a state of affairs plausibly conceived as an outcome of actions like telling the truth , paying one ' s debts , helping the needy , etc . rather doing these sorts of things is , on the aristotelian view , the immediate actualization of the ongoing activity of living morally . can finlay ' s view make sense of that idea ?\nthe other records , transmitted orally for countless generations , are inconsistent . some speak of \u201cstrange speech , \u201d others of new languages .\nthis summary fills in

readers of sumerian . it must be remembered that these fields are highly specialized . e . a . speiser and b . landsberger , who insisted that many of the words in sumerian documents are not sumerian words at all , led the linguists and philologists in the early days . landsberger pointed out that this is especially true of words pertaining to agriculture , showing that the basic farming

rehearsals , where there was a lot of development of characters ( even a character name change ) . a good portion of the discussion was on the comedic elements of the film , where pace and timing of a performance can be the difference between a gag getting a laugh , or it falling like a lead balloon . in a 72 , time is restricted so honing in on those comedic performances can be stressful . however

( 99 ) and it is very beautifully said by moses , in the form of a parable , when he speaks of the world as if it resembled a brick ; for the world appears to stand and to be firmly fixed like a brick in a house , as far as the vision of the sight of the outward senses can inform us , but it has a very swift motion , and one which is able to outstrip all particular motions .

everything you need to sharpen your knowledge of death , the high cost of living .\ni ' m still not sure how the high cost of living made it onto canada ' s top ten , let alone how it took the best canadian first feature award at tiff last year . it ' s just not very good .\ntoronto - born chow\u2019s short films daypass and the hill played numerous festivals and were broadcast worldwide . the high cost of living won best canadian first feature at the 2010 toronto international film festival . she directed an adaptation of the popular 1979 novel flowers in the attic , and is in pre - production on the possibility of fireflies .\nms . chow\u2019s direction hits every mark and narrative turning point with the unwavering , one - note insistence of the relentlessly plinking piano score . the result is a strange simulacrum of dramatic complexity , a work of superficial depth . saved from pretentiousness by its transparent sincerity , \u201cthe high cost of living\u201d is hard to hate but even harder to like .\ndeath : the high cost of living is a short , graphic novel that follows the character of sexton furnival , a sixteen -

intentioned and earnest in its ambitions that you can almost forgive the banality of its every scene .\nartist : jamey johnson song : high cost of living album : that lonesome song director : clifton collins jr . production company : stonefree productions clifton collins jr . official web links : website : urltoken imdb : urltoken myspace : urltoken facebook : urltoken twitter : urltoken\nthe price of the staple is still high , with a 7 . 7 per cent increase compared to june last year when it retailed at sh110 . 57 .\nbut henry has his own problems . his past misdeeds are catching up , and he soon discovers that the police are steadily closing in . the inevitable collision will force both henry and nathalie to confront loss , labor and life , and to ultimately decide whether the cost of living is worth the price .\nmore recently , a study by the economists peter ganong and daniel shoag analyzed the patterns of migration between u . s . regions . in previous decades , workers of all kinds moved to high - wage states , and particularly to high - wage cities such as boston , san francisco , and new york , to increase their opportunities . by the middle of the nineteen - nineties , things had changed . no longer were low - wage workers moving to these cities . instead , the migration to high - wage locales became increasingly limited to those who already _ _ had high - paying jobs . \u201cnew york and california have always been places of economic opportunity ,\nganong said .\nthe question is : does that opportunity also come with the need to pay a bajillion dollars in rent ? \u201d\nthe tomatometer score \u2014 based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics \u2014 is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans . it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .\na slacker is forced to work for his father -

eight billion dollars invested in technology last year was concentrated in san francisco and san jose , california . but economic vitality of all sorts has become increasingly concentrated in a few desirable locales . brooklyn is the country\u2019s third leading locale for new businesses ; miami -

my own guess would be , \u201cnot many . \u201d the american ned rorem and the russian alfred schnittke , each of whom have written four string quartets , are exceptions . yet more important are the works of elliott carter , who belongs in any history of the string quartet .\nclaude debussy , a pianist of ability , if never the virtuoso he had once hoped to become , was relatively late in developing his own characteristically poetic piano style . the two arabesques , of which the g major is the second , are early works , written between 1888 and 1891 , are well known , and were to become an established part of contemporary domestic repertoire . debussy ' s later piano music increases in complexity and in its evocative content from about 1905 , with the publication of the first set of images and the revision of the suite bergamasque .\nwhen played with the right balance of delicacy and fury , mendelssohn\u2019s sizzling string octet , for four violins , two violas , and two cellos , opus 20 , in e flat ( 1825 ) , brings audiences to their feet . to write a true full - length eight - voice piece for strings is basically impossible , but mendelssohn , at sixteen , did not know that . no one else among the great composers has managed it . 88 with it , mendelssohn became , and still is , the youngest composer to write a work that remains in the classical repertoire .\nlured by the evil genius , siegfried finds himself on the banks of a mysterious lake . in the shimmering patches of moonlight on the water , visions of bewitched swan maidens rise up before him . siegfried catches sight of odette , the most beautiful of the maidens . he is spell - bound , deeply struck by her beauty . at long last , he has found his romantic ideal of love . he swears to odette that he will love her foreverand be faithful to her .\nlike his countryman smetana , the czech composer leos jan\u00e1cek w rote autobiographical quartets . both these pieces expressed his autumnal , unfulfilled love for another man\u2019s wife . as befitting the quartets of a great opera composer , jan\u00e1cek\u2019s string voices seem to be conversing throughout . these beautiful works present romantic storytelling in twentieth - century sound . fortunately , now that czech ensembles are bringing their great quartet tradition to western audiences , jan\u00e1cek\u2019s masterpieces have caught on among north american performers and are programmed fairly often .\ntradition , continuity and an impressive repertoire : these are the solid pillars supporting the bayerische staatsoper \u2013 one of the world\u2019s leading opera houses . it can look back proudly on a cultural history of over 350 years . thanks to a court tradition , opera found a home in munich in 1653 ; since then its music - historical and sociopolitical development has continued in a way unparalleled anywhere else , worldwide . the bayerische staatsoper , with some 600 , 000 persons attending its over 450 performances each year , makes a major contribution to munich\u2019s reputation as one of the great international cultural capitals .\nwhat distinguishes the syncretists is their attempt , in one way or another , to combine the various discoveries of modernism with the communicative power of romanticism . they want the classical audience back , but at the same time they don\u2019t want to abandon all of modernism\u2019s aesthetic advances . they are unwilling to return to the straightforward scales , keys , and harmonies of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries , but in other ways they have embraced the romantic aesthetic \u2014 its direct appeals to emotion , its story - telling , its dramatic journeys , its philosophical meditations .\nthe fifteenth returns to straightforward tonality and thus is as easily approachable as the middle quartets . but it does not sound like they do . its textures are bare , full of silences in one or another of the instruments ; its mood is grief . the piece is unique in the quartet repertoire in consisting of five slow movements . the dark key , e flat minor , one of the most awkward of keys for string players , was perhaps chosen in honor of tchaikovsky\u2019s last quartet in the same key . both quartets seem to mourn the tragedies of their composers\u2019 own lives , and , for the listener , to commemorate the ineluctable sorrows of the human condition .\nfirst complete edition of kraehmer\u2019s concertante work op . 24 in a modern edition with critical commentary . the first set of variations is based on a waltz theme , the second on a more serious , mozartian theme , the third on a theme with alpine motifs . the composition has clear and exact phrasing and dynamic markings and is therefore a very good example for the performance of early romantic recorder music . two original themes with variations , op . 24 , for solo recorder ( 1830 ) . editor : p . adams , dolce editions dol 215 ( published 1993 ) .\nthe plot of carl maria von weber ' s romantic elfin opera , first performed at london ' s covent garden in 1826 , is quite startling . when oberon , king of the fairies quarrels with his queen titania , it is the humans , of all creatures , who are called upon to solve the problem . titania will only consider reconciliation , on the condition that a human couple affirm their love within a life or death scenario . oberon ' s servant puck already has somebody in mind \u2013 the crusader h\u00fcon of bordeaux , who is in love with rezia , daughter of the calif .\nmendelssohn himself had encouraged schumann by arranging performances of his work in leipzig with the gewandhaus orchestra , which he directed . a man of diverse talents , sociable and broadly educated , he retained an element of classicism in his work , an ability to use again old forms , coupled with an economy of means , while nevertheless providing music of contemporary romantic appeal . the venetian boat song included here , not the only one he wrote , appeared in the second volume of his genre pieces , songs without words , graceful vignettes calculated to bring a blush of delight to the cheeks of any young person .\nwagner ' s coeval and italian counterpart , giuseppe verdi ( 1813 - 1901 ) , inherited the mantle of italian romantic opera from his predecessors and sustained it , almost single - handedly , for over half a century . his ideas , like wagner ' s , developed and changed during that span , but essentially he remained bound to the traditional number ( unitized ) format of opera , the idea of the vocal artist as the primary protagonist of the drama , and the accompaniment function of the orchestra . only in his final works did he abandon the number opera system and employ the continuous music mode of his german rival .\nit was the demands of the church that required a musical notation , and so the earliest written music was largely church music . the plainchant of this time was still unaccompanied , but new developments were starting to appear . the singing might alternate between two parts for solo singers or choirs , or two parts might be sung together in a style called organum . in early organum a second part simply followed the main part at a fixed interval so that the two parts moved in parallel . later the supporting parts became more independent of the main one and this freedom led to early forms of harmony . outside of the church ' s influence , minstrels and troubadours were entertaining in the castles of europe , with music and song a key part of their unwritten repertoire .\nof schubert\u2019s fifteen quartets , these last three are the masterpieces . no . 14 , in d minor , is by far the most often performed \u2014 in fact , too often ; it is one of the very few quartets that has attained the status of warhorse . nevertheless , it is a great work . schubert\u2019s quartets were the first to build on beethoven\u2019s romantic foundations , but in one sense they resemble mozart\u2019s : their composer thought primarily in terms of a singable line . the second movement of the \u201cdeath and the maiden\u201d quartet consists of variations on schubert\u2019s song of that name . the quartet\u2019s companion piece , in a minor , is its equal , though it is programmed and recorded much less frequently .\nthe romantic era was another period of rapid evolution in music . from the foundations laid down by the classical masters , composers were now composing from the heart . the fact that composers were no longer employees but independent meant that they could follow their own direction , composing music that pleased themselves . of course composers still had to live so they accepted commissions , made deals with publishing houses , composed music with commercial value , and promoted their own music through concerts across europe and other parts of the world . many composers of the time were also very skilled performers or conductors and would therefore go on tour with their new works . thus composers were among the celebrities of the time , and there a degree of showmanship involved with ever longer and more elaborate works played by huge orchestras and choirs .\ninterior designer moon shing - hong ( moses chan ) and his wealthy good friend tin hak - kan ( mak cheung ching ) open up a design partnership company . in order to establish an ideal and happy family with his girlfriend to tsz - tsin ( oceane zhu ) , shing - hong bought a property and is now waiting for tsz - tsin & apos ; s return from studying abroad . unexpectedly , shing - hong & apos ; s elder sister , moon shing - oi ( lo yuen yan ) , has already leased the property out to the most sought - after cantonese opera artiste , kan kit ( joyce koi ) , without his consent . failing to rescind the contract , shing - hong tries to drive away kan kit at all cost . to his surprise , kan kit & apos ; s agent lin sau - fong ( louise lee ) is despotic and indifferent and she refuses to give in , which puts shing - hong at his wit & apos ; s end . since then , the two parties have been at daggers drawn . but the situation changes in significant ways when hak - kan out of the blue starts courting kan kit . having had a deeper understanding of kan kit , shing - hong manages to help hak - kan and kan kit get engaged . because of that , shing - hong and kan kit not only bury the hatchet but also develop a subtle rapport with each other . shortly afterwards , kan kit suddenly has a traffic accident , following which she even finds her biological mother ; whereas hak - kan also calls off the engagement . on top of that , it turns out that tsz - tsin returned to hong kong a long time ago and became a two - timer . . . . . . change will always happen no matter what you plan . so the question is whether life is like a repertoire or a repertoire reflects life .\nwhile classical music became more elite , popular music ( which had been around for centuries ) found a new mass audience , with the advent of recordings , radio and television . these new media had an insatiable demand for music , and film music in particular required much original music and recruited composers educated in the classical traditions . popular music in turn had a strong influence on serious music , and jazz and other ideas became incorporated into the concert repertoire . the same electricity which powered the new media , also fuelled new gadgets for amplification and powered new instruments such as the electric guitar and synthesisers . more recently it has become possible to create and manipulate sound solely within computers , in a similar way to their use for creating graphics and animations for those same media . with all these developments music is much more accessible around the world , and as styles and techniques are invented , re - invented and combined this in turn stimulates further invention and discovery .\nif the romantic period saw the start of some fragmentation into different schools , this trend continued and accelerated into the modern era . there were those who continued to develop older traditions : the neo - classicists , the late romantics and the impressionist schools still prevailed , and those who took a new path with atonal music , serialism and later with experimental and minimalist music . some composers created thematic material which could hardly be called\nmelodies\n, introducing dissonant intervals and different scales , and unusual rhythms and cross - rhythms were explored . there were composers , considered extreme by some audiences , who used traditional instruments in unconventional ways , overturned principles previously considered fundamental , and questioned the roles of composer , musician and listener . experimental composers used randomisation techniques , or gave unusual instructions which might not include any conventional musical notation at all .\nto my ears , the best introduction to beethoven\u2019s quartets is not the group of early quartets , the six of opus 18 , which are overshadowed by haydn\u2019s opus 76 and 77 . begin instead with the first of the three razumovsky quartets , opus 59 no . 1 , in f major . the cello melody in the first few measures swings open the door to the romantic century . once you are hooked by this piece , which charms the heart while it is busy demolishing what music had been before it , turn to its emotional opposite , intense and mysterious , the opus 59 no . 2 , in e minor . listen your way through the difficult opus 59 no . 3 , in c major , then the delightful \u201charp\u201d quartet , so called because of the pizzicato arpeggios in the first movement , and finally the violent \u201cserioso . \u201d these five are the \u201cmiddle quartets\u201d and are often recorded together for cd albums .\nthe title of willie nelson ' s solo debut on blue note records , american classic , refers as much to the man himself as to the storied tin pan alley repertoire he explores on this elegant new set . while its common now for mature pop artists to attempt to put their own stamp on the american songbook , nelson practically invented the approach . he set the standard for , well , playing the standards more than thirty years ago with stardust , perhaps this outlaw entertainers most daring move , an album that many industry pundits thought would get him laughed off the charts and out of the biz . instead , the booker t . jones - produced stardust which showcased material from the gershwins , duke ellington , hoagy carmichael and kurt weill , among others , in spare , easy - going arrangements became the most successful album of his career thus far . it reached # 1 on the billboards country albums chart ; racked up more than five million in sales ; earned nelson a country male vocal performance grammy ; and , most significantly , helped to transform a colorful , middle - aged cult figure into a mainstream star .\nthe theatrical tendency was to portray a widening range of emotion and dramatic situation . though such writing called for ever stronger musical treatment , the early romantic composers had not clearly broken with the long held concept that music had to be pleasant to be good . wagner turned this corner . his advanced chromaticism and delay in resolving suspensions resulted in harmonies that were audacious for the time . he frequently approached the boundaries of tonality and , even today , with our dissonance - jaded ears , we can find sounds in wagner that cannot be called pleasant . his successors would go still further in this direction to be sure , but it was wagner who saw that dramatic music needed to be free to portray a complete range of situation , the vile and unspeakable as well as the divine and transcendental . henceforth , music would express a widening gamut of emotion , and singers would need the requisite aural and musical skills to deal with complex musical structure and dissonant harmonic surroundings . as a measure of where we have come since then , it might be noted that in vienna , in 1863 , the premiere of\nmuch of the repertoire , nelson explains , was picked by tommy and joe .\nthey came to the house and we sat around and talked about songs , like ' the nearness of you ' and ' angel eyes , ' which is one of my favorite jazz standards . we talked about a lot of great standards . the vintage tunes they chose ,\nsays nelson ,\nare of the same quality as stardust , but we did them a little differently . tommy put together the band , with guys like joe , who ' s an incredible musician and arranger . stardust was recorded with my band , but this was done with musicians who were coming , musically , from another place . you can ' t beat the players you have on this one , they ' re as good as they get .\nthe key to the project ,\nnotes lipuma ,\nwas that we all realized how much we loved bob wills and the texas playboys . that brought us all together . i was a big fan of wills , as was joe ; willie , of course , was a huge fan , as well as a huge fan of django reinhardt . so after we chose the songs and got the keys and all that stuff , we left a day or so to figure out what made the most sense as far as willie was concerned , what willie felt the most comfortable with . we ended up with a django / bob wills feel to the arrangements and willie fell right into it . ' the nearness of you ' was one of the first things that jumped right out , and from there we ended up doing about 16 or 17 tracks , then knocking it down to the ones we put on the album .\nexecutive producer : li yan fang scriptwriter : siu lai king / huang yu de interior designer moon shing - hong ( moses chan ) and his wealthy good friend tin hak - kan ( mak cheung ching ) open up a design partnership company . in order to establish an ideal and happy family with his girlfriend to tsz - tsin ( oceane zhu ) , shing - hong bought a property and is now waiting for tsz - tain\u2019s return from studying abroad . unexpectedly , shing - hong\u2019s elder sister , moon shing - oi ( lo yeuen yan ) , has already leased the property out to the most sought - after cantonese opera artiste , kan kit ( joyce koi ) , without his consent . failing to rescind the contract , shing - hong tries to drive away kan kit at all cost . to his surprise , kan kit\u2019s agent lin sau - fong ( louise lee ) is despotic and indifferent and she refuses to give in , which puts shing - hong at his wit\u2019s end . since then , the two parties have been at daggers drawn . but the situation changes in significant ways when hak - kan out of the blue starts courting kan kit . having had a deeper understanding of kan kit , shing - hong manages to help hak - kan and kan kit get engaged . because of that , shing - hong and kan kit not oly bury the hatchet but also develop a subtle rapport with each other . shortly afterwards , kan kit suddenly has a traffic accident , following which she even finds her biological mother ; whereas hak - kan also calls off the engagement . on top of that , it turns out that tsz - tsin returned to hong kong a long time ago and became a two timer\u2026 change will always happen no matter what you plan . so the question is whether life is like a repertorie or a repertoire reflects life .\nencouraging nelson to record stardust was bruce lundvall , now blue note ' s head , who had the prescience to sign nelson to columbia in the 70s and , thirty years later , offer him a home at blue note . nelsons first effort for the label was his acclaimed 2008 collaboration with wynton marsalis , two men with the blues , a spirited live set that debuted at # 20 on the billboard pop chart ( nelsons highest charting since always on my mind hit # 2 in 1982 ) . fans around the world know that the adventurous nelson can sing just about anything and with just about anyone he pleases . as he sees it ,\nthe more songs you know , the more musicians you listen to , the more writers you hear , the better equipped you are to decide where you want to go next . thats why i want to listen to everyone and everything and then decide which way i want to go . then , of course , i might change my mind and go in an entirely different direction . but at least i have all these options .\non american classic , he ' s joined , on vocals and piano , by diana krall in an intimate rendition of\nif i had you\nthat feels more like pillow talk than mere wishful thinking .

the construction and enhancement of entertainment franchises .\nwell you know the original poem ' eskimo nell ' is pretty raunchy . we were just trying to hypothesise about what kind of a true story might have been the basis of such a poem . i originally wanted to make the film in the states , at the time of the revisionist western , but learned quite quickly that the poem is unknown in the states . it ' s known only in the \u201cenglish world\u201d , meaning canada , australia and england .\nfor 21 years , the houston production guide , in association with the houston film commission , has been the industry directory used by producers , location managers , event planners , national trade conventions , ad agencies , and corporations when seeking houston area production equipment , crews , editors , cameras , studios , graphics , music , talent , or even caterers , restaurants , hotels , limos , aircraft , tents , etc . \u2013 the houston production guide is the source .\nso far , the most successful transmedia franchises have emerged when a single creator or creative unit maintains control over the franchise . hollywood might well study the ways that lucasfilm has managed and cultivated its indiana jones and star wars franchises . when indiana jones went to television , for example , it exploited the medium\u2019s potential for extended storytelling and character development : the young indiana jones chronicles showed us the character take shape against the backdrop of various historical events and exotic environments . when star wars moved into print , its novels expanded the timeline to show us events not contained in the film trilogies , or recast the stories around secondary characters , as did the tales of the cantina series , which fleshes out those curious - looking aliens in the background of the original movie . when star wars went to games , those games didn\u2019t just enact film events ; they showed us what life would be like for a jedi trainee or a bounty hunter .\nwith this thin veneer of medical ' therapy ' , or whatever , these films were being shown in these little underground cinemas and so on around the place . they were all essentially softcore , and we decided to make a kind of send -

honored means of memorializing a loved one after cremation . there are several methods for the release of ashes that can be personalized in any number of ways . much of the decision depends on the wishes of the deceased and how those left behind want to honor that person\u2019s memory . consider your choices carefully ; once the ashes are scattered they are gone forever , unless you keep a portion of the remains for remembrance or as part of a keepsake .\nearth and ashes is a story of such spareness and power it leaves the reader reeling . set during the russian occupation of afghanistan , it is a fable about war , family , home and tradition . an old man and his grandson sit in a deserted landscape of dusty roads and looming mountains . what are they waiting for ? as we watch them we learn their story . . . atiq rahimi has managed to condense centuries of afghan history into his short tale of three very different generations . at the same time , he has created a story that is universal in its power .\nfor all the sympathy the book generates , the characters remain in many ways bewildering to a western reader . here one is forced to accept a culture different not only on its surface but also in its very conception of human relations . these characters think things we would never think and act in ways we would never act . earth and ashes opens a way into afghan life but keeps that life unfamiliar . this is one of its triumphs : it does not allow its readers the arrogance of identification .\n\u201canyone seeking to understand why afghanistan is difficult and what decades of violence have done to its people should read atiq rahimi . he is a superb guide to a hard and complex land . \u201d \u2014ryan crocker , former us ambassador to pakistan and iraq , and us envoy to afghanistan \u201cthe blasted dreamscape of rahimi\u2019s story and his tightly controlled prose make this a sobering literary testament to the horrors of war . \u201d \u2014 publishers weekly \u201cit has the feel of a book of great antiquity and authority ; you could more readily level the afghan mountains than damage the dreaming culture that earth and ashes both embodies and silently trusts . \u201d \u2014 london times \u201cwith this novel rahimi picks up a shard of broken glass and sees the whole truth of his devastated country . \u201d \u2014 der spiegel ( germany )\n. on these coals no incense was placed , but they were thrown at once to the earth . the new emblem , therefore , is the taking of coals , and scattering them abroad as a symbol of the destruction that was about to ensue .\n. this is a new symbol , designed to furnish a new representation of future events . by the former it had been shown that there would be much prayer offered ; by this it is designed to show that , notwithstanding the prayer that would be offered , great and fearful calamities would come upon the earth . this is symbolized by casting the censer upon the earth , as if the prayers were not heard any longer , or as if prayer were now in vain .\nthere are a variety of creative options for how and where the ashes are scattered . often , cremated remains are dispersed at a place that had personal or philosophical significance to the deceased . it can be a favorite destination such as a beach , forest or meadow ; or someplace that reflects the person\u2019s everyday life such as a park , golf course or even their own home . keep in mind when choosing a location that there are laws governing the scattering of cremation remains . these laws vary from state to state and will affect how and where the ashes can be scattered , and whether you will need a permit to do so .\nmemorial crafting \u2013 a portion of the remains can be preserved inside a keepsake\u2026or crafted into one . for example , a small amount of ashes can be handcrafted into glass - blown tokens , jewelry or glass art and inscribed with a memorial message . cremation ashes can also be mixed into charcoal , paint and tattoo ink , or used in a more involved process to create objects such as fireworks or even diamonds . many memorial crafts such as these are created by artists all over the country , so take the time to explore what possibilities are available to you .\natiq rahimi ( b . 1962 , kabul ) moved to pakistan in 1984 and finally to france where he received political asylum ; he then studied at the sorbonne . in 1992 - 1995 he shot several documentaries for french television . in 2000 his first novel , earth and ashes , was warmly received by french critics , and in 2004 the author transferred it to the screen as his first feature . the film was chosen for the section un certain regard at the recent festival in cannes . rahimi published another novel in france in 2002 , les milles maisons du r\u00eave et de la terreur .\ncreate and plan additional remembrances and celebrations as the spacecraft orbits overhead or reaches key locations .\natiq rahimi\u2019s earth and ashes tells an enormous story by way of a very small one . the narrative , written in the second person , describes the journey of an old man , dastaguir , with his grandson , yassin . they are going to see the grandfather\u2019s son , the grandson\u2019s father , murad , who works in a mine and wasn\u2019t at home when his afghan village was destroyed by the russians and nearly everyone was killed . the first half of the book describes dastaguir\u2019s wait with yassin at the roadside checkpoint for a truck to take them the final leg of their weeklong journey to the mine ; the second half is about dastaguir\u2019s ride to and arrival at his destination .\nearth and ashes is the spare , powerful story of an afghan man , dastaguir , trying desperately to reach his son murad , who has left his village to earn a living working at a mine . in the meantime the village has been bombed by the russian army , and dastaguir , with his newly - deaf grandson yassin in tow , must reach murad to tell him of the carnage . the old man is beset on all sides by sorrow , that of his grandson , who cannot understand , that of his son , who does not yet know , and his own , made even crueler by the message he must deliver .\nbrevity is the sister of talent ,\nwrote anton chekhov , thinking of his short stories , in 1889 . his comment applies equally , if uneasily , to the heterogeneous fictions caught between the novel and the short story . post - conrad , james , woolf and rhys , the short novel is still often seen as a second - class form , lacking both the novel ' s scope and range and the manoeuvrability of the short story proper , which raymond carver loved because it\ncan be written and read in one sitting\n. when the writing calls for a more muscular definition , publishers offer unwieldy conjunctions (\nshort fictions\n,\nshort prose\n) or duck the question altogether with\nshorts\n. two fictions from france , earth and ashes and desolation , inhabit this genre - bending ground .\nthe story of the village ' s destruction emerges bit by bit , while dastaguir distracts himself from his grief with simple objects : an apple , stones , chewing tobacco . following the old man ' s jumps of attention , earth and ashes progresses in choppy , disconnected paragraphs . even its conversations fail : yassin , deafened by the blast , repeats\nwater !\n,\nall dead\nor\ndon ' t !\n, unresponsive to his grandfather ' s pleas and rebukes . his uncomprehending deafness mirrors the book ' s own strangeness : filtered through dastaguir ' s apathetic gaze , its gathered fragments remain oddly unaffecting .\n8 : 1 - 6 the seventh seal is opened . there was profound silence in heaven for a space ; all was quiet in the church , for whenever the church on earth cries through oppression , that cry reaches up to heaven ; or it is a silence of expectation . trumpets were given to the angels , who were to sound them . the lord jesus is the high priest of the church , having a golden censer , and much incense , fulness of merit in his own glorious person . would that men studied to know the fulness that is in christ , and endeavoured to be acquainted with his excellency . would that they were truly persuaded that christ has such an office as that of intercessor , which he now performs with deep sympathy . no prayers , thus recommended , was ever denied hearing and acceptance . these prayers , thus accepted in heaven , produced great changes upon earth . the christian worship and religion , pure and heavenly in its origin and nature , when sent down to earth and conflicting with the passions and worldly projects of sinful men , produced remarkable tumults , here set forth in prophetical language , as our lord himself declared , lu 12 : 49 .\nthere is some variety among the mss . in the order of the words here used . some place \u201clightnings\u201d before \u201cvoices . \u201d these signs and sounds herald the approach of judgments . god has arisen in answer to the cry of his people . \u201cthe earth shook and trembled . there went up a smoke and a fire : coals were kindled at it . at the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed , hailstones and coals of fire . the lord also thundered in the heavens , and the highest gave his voice , hailstones and coals of fire . yea , he sent out his arrows , and scattered them : he shot out lightnings and discomfited them . . . he delivered me from my strong enemy\u201d (\nscattering by water \u2013 the remains are scattered onto a body of water from the shore , a dock or a boat . loved ones may place flowers , petals or floating candles into the water alongside the remains as a tribute . these will float on top of the water while the ashes sink below the surface .\nwritten by atiq rahimi , an afghan political exile in paris , and translated by erdag m goknar , earth and ashes was acclaimed in france as a baffling\nprodigy\n.\nnovel , short story , fable ?\nwondered one critic . at barely 60 pages , the question is apt . rahimi ' s book follows an old man , dastaguir , and his grandson , yassin , sole survivors of a russian bomb that devastated their village , as they carry the news to the mine where the boy ' s father works . their long wait at a dusty border post is narrated by dastaguir in a strained second person , both inviting the reader to share his experiences and insisting on his own detachment from them . the cumulative effect is one of shocked numbness : the old man speaks to himself as though to a stranger , issuing fragmented pleas , questions and instructions :\nput the box back . think of something else .\ncelestis memorial spaceflights make the dream of spaceflight a reality by launching a symbolic portion of cremated remains into near -

one pages long , more the length of an epic poem than a novel . it shares with poetry a simultaneous richness and discipline of language \u2013 one feels the economy of expression in every sentence , but there is a lushness , too , in the barren context of the narrative . the most lyrical writing is inside quotation marks , the author giving his characters a more poignant eloquence than he claims for himself , an eloquence that the translation seems to sustain . a shopkeeper says to dastaguir , \u201cyou know , father , sorrow can turn to water and spill from your eyes , or it can sharpen your tongue into a sword , or it can become a time bomb that , one day , will explode and destroy you . \u201d yassin has gone deaf from the sound of the bombs , but he attributes the quiet to the world rather than to himself , and he says , \u201cthe bomb was huge . it brought silence . the tanks took away people\u2019s voices and left . they even took grandfather\u2019s voice away . grandfather can\u2019t talk anymore , he can\u2019t scold me . \u201d\nthe caring and experienced professionals at solimine funeral homes are here to support you through this difficult time . we offer a range of personalized funeral , memorial and cremation services to suit your family\u2019s wishes and requirements .\nthe often spare and elliptical narration , and the very effective descriptions of the weariness and worry of the most simple actions and exchanges , work very well . this is a powerful , understated work -

- and horribly - - affected dastaguir and the village he comes from ; they also control the mine where murad works .\nyasmina reza , another parisian , has drawn on camus and houellebecq ' s brutal accounts of alienation for her own short novel . in desolation , translated by carol brown janeway , the ageing narrator , samuel , addresses a series of reflections and complaints to his absent son . samuel ' s mordant comments balance precariously between relish and bitterness : their acerbic charm is always on the verge of turning rancid .\nthis is an extraordinary short story or novella . it is the story of a grandfather and grandson travelling together to find their son / father respectively . it sounds like a simple story , but it is based during the russian occupation of afghanistan and blends great tragedy with honest thoughts and feelings of the characters whilst also making reference to the eleventh century , persian , book of kings . it is absolutely transferrable to the present day and could easily be a story of a family in the very recent past ! this book was a recommendation for me based on other books i had read . it was a great recommendation and i will definitely read more from this author .\nthe book is partly allegorical : the characters represent the problems of afghanistan and stand in for a much larger ravaged population . it conveys with heartbreaking clarity the quality of a destroyed country and its courageous , nearly annihilated inhabitants . what is perhaps most terrifying of all is that this book is set during the russian invasion of afghanistan ; this is how bad things were before the mujahideen and the taliban . we have become somewhat inured to the horror , so much of which we witnessed on news broadcasts , until we thought we knew it . here it is once again made incomprehensible to us . dastaguir and murad and yassin are the voices of this national despair , but the book is also the compelling narrative of individual afflictions . your heart is in your throat as dastaguir approaches the mine ; you are deeply pained by the sadness and confusion with which he approaches a world broken beyond recognition ; and you are filled with wonderment at the unbreachable fact of his survival . we get lost in his dreams and in his fears and most of all in his immediate quandary : is it better to go and tell murad what has happened , to bring such miserable news to someone who may now be innocent of it , or would it be better to turn around and go home , leaving murad some further time to live without this knowledge , which cannot do anything but injure him ? then again , would it injure him less to hear of it from his old father than to hear the dread words from a stranger ?\nwe receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us . like many websites , we employ\ncookies\nthat obtain certain types of information when your web browser accesses celestis , advertisements , and other content served by or on behalf of celestis on other websites .\nhere , is to be understood the wrath of god , often in holy writ compared to fire , poured out upon the roman empire , or the visible church . upon which followed great judgments , and confusions , and tumults , expressed here , or ushered in , as before ,\nis a novella of only sixty -

shot sequence ironically illustrates this claim . in the first image , at the moment the goat slips in the distance , a puff of smoke appears in the lower right - hand side of the frame . a reverse angle match - on - action shot then shows the animal falling from above . from one image to the next , the camera shifts from one side of the mountain to the other . to fabricate an illusion of continuity , the film crew shot the goat , hauled its carcass up the side of the mountain , and threw it off again . by leaving the traces of this process in the film , however , the director undermines the illusion and exposes the artifice of montage .\nwhen a prisoner transport plane crashes , one prisoner , mark sheridan , skillfully escapes and saves lives at the same time . deputy sam gerard and his team of u . s . marshals pursue relentlessly , but gerard begins to suspect that there is more to the exceptional fugitive than what he has been told . meanwhile , sheridan struggles to avoid capture while seeking answers of his own . until the final scene , both gerard and sheridan are in jeopardy of the unknown .\nthe film ' s message was that there were different archetypal roles to be played by the talents of various apartment tenants to assist story in getting home , but they needed to be matched up correctly during her departure ceremony . heep received assistance from film critic harry farber ( bob balaban ) , but was misled in the match -

worship , the only other criticism is why it took so long to put this film together . taylor created three dubious memories in 2010 ; it premiered in early 2011 . the work did not receive strong reviews , and is already , at least temporarily , out of the repertory . but it\u2019s the creation of the dance , not the dance itself or its critical reception , which is the film\u2019s subject , so the length of time it took is only a somewhat irrelevant observation . and as for that hero -

examine the rich history of ethnographic film , including not only forgotten works such as the smithsonian - funded by aeroplane to pygmyland , stirling new guinea expedition ( 1927 ) , but also the extensive research footage stored in archives . ethnographic filmmakers , like their literary counterparts , should return to the scenes of earlier works . we need , for example , a film on the making of robert gardner ' s dead birds ( 1963 ) which also explores the remarkable transformations in the highlands of western new guinea after decades of indonesian rule .\nas clyde pressed the send button on the phone to the bomb -

painstakingly , passionately , near perfectly - of the small structures of the particular . a dark , humane masterpiece . roth is at the peak of his powers\n-\nthe times\n.\nthe word genius doesn ' t seem excessive -

known fact to you .\nthe plot against america\ntakes the witty bits from\nportnoy ' s complaint\n, and mixes it with the grim atmosphere of chaos that we encounter in\namerican pastoral\n. the style is again autobiographical , only in\nthe plot against america\nwe step into an alternate reality , in which charles lindberg , the aviator ( and nazi sympathiser ) is elected president of the united states instead of fdr ( voted to run ' sans ' primaries straight from the floor of republican party national assembly and sweeping the country subsequently in the 1940 elections ) . lindberg , who was philip roth ' s - the charecter - brother ' s secret hero , is sweeping the country into complete anti - jewish propaganda , which is quite similar to the general atmosphere the nazis have initiated in germany prior to the madness that was set loose in and after kristallnacht . the story is told from the viewpoint of the young jewish boy - philip roth - whose immature point of view as well as the focus on the little thing in life , makes it so genuine . the scary thing about this book is that roth doesn ' t exaggerate nor does he fantasizes an implausible scenario . you would not see american - jews sent to concentration camps , but an initiation of an american governmental program to assimilate jews in society , ran ( and hence given the\nkosher stamp\n) by lindberg ' s rabbi friend , general anti jews sentiment , public riots and so on and so on . you will read the plot against american while holding your breath , thinking this can very much happen tomorrow or the next day .\nan interesting and prophetic book . although written in 2004 about the period before the 2nd world war , it foresees an imaginary rise of fascism with charles lindbergh as president . . .\na close examination of childhood fears but it ' s long and boring and did it need to rewrite history ? philip roth gets less interesting the more you read of him .\nthe upshot of the book , or one of them , is that democracy is wasted on many americans . people must be bright , educated and informed for democracy to work , for how can you vote for . . .\neven a literary genius can have his off day , and this simplistic , counter - factual , historical potbioler is roth ' s . a real disappointment .\ni love this book , involving jewish second generation immigrants in newark . a rich culture , intense characterisation .\ninteresting take on fictionalised jewish situation in new jersey in world war 2 and what might have happened if the us supported hilter and it the allies .\nan interesting take on what would happen if there had been one small change in american history . i wonder if the resolution would have been the same with the current president .\nprime members enjoy fast & free shipping , unlimited streaming of movies and tv shows with prime video and many more exclusive benefits .\nafter viewing product detail pages , look here to find an easy way to navigate back to pages you are interested in .\nafter years of waiting and peance of forest rangers wife , two very sweet twins -

( most of it to defend the lawsuits . )\nthe first thing to remember about the villain ' s lair , is that there are absolutely no tower guards . as such , you will not get shot , no matter how much heat you have on you . you can also chip walls at any time during the day without getting shot . start by buying a guard outfit first . each cell ( excluding your own ) has a camera inside it . dressing up as a guard or henchman will allow you to search another spy ' s desk without the camera getting suspicious . if you can knock out a henchman and take his outfit beforehand however , the guard outfit will be inferior . get a fake shoe from a desk if you can . it works like a contraband pouch , except it does not get confiscated if you get knocked out .\nonce you have acquired both of these items one way or another , it ' s time to move onto the next item - the keycard . this is located inside the henchman ' s quarters to the northeast of the lair . the door however , has a blue key lock . this means you must be a henchman . the guard outfit is not sufficient for this , even though henchmen will be fooled by it . as such , you need to acquire a henchman outfit by knocking out a henchman . ideally , try to find the fourth henchman on the roster , as he has the staff key . you ' ll be needing a copy of that next . if you ' re having trouble figuring out the fourth henchman , wait until evening rollcall , when the henchmen turn on their flashlights . and then go and find a henchman who has a flashlight , but is not at rollcall . there ' s a 50 % chance he has the staff key - the other 50 % is the work key . either way , once you ' ve identified him , wait for him to cross over into your cell block , and then make your move . you can make a flamethrower or cup of molten chocolate to instantly knock him out . you can also find a bomb surprise or garotting wire watch or sharp tea tray in another spy ' s desk , and they will all serve as instant knockout items , too . once he ' s down , take his henchman uniform . he may also have some memoir tapes on him . take those as well , as they are a necessary component for the voice recording . finally , take his staff key and make a copy of it , but remember to give the staff key back before he wakes up again .\nonce you have the fake fingerprint , the voice recording , and the keycard , you can escape at any time you wish . if you choose to do it at night time however , you will need to create a bed dummy for your bed , as well as use your henchman or guard outfit to avoid being sent to solitary . head to the rocket and use the three items . the left console requires the keycard , the middle console requires the voice recording , and the right console requires the fake fingerprint . once you ' ve put the last item into the consoles , the game will end .\nthis page was last edited on 3 october 2017 , at 19 : 17 .\ncontent is available under cc by -

based independent director john d . hancock , ' ' suspended animation ' ' is a sturdy , well - made piece that never quite overcomes its structural flaws .\ntom kempton ( alex mcarthur ) is a celebrated animator who winters in northern michigan , where a snowmobile accident leads him into the clutches of two weird sisters , vanessa and ann boulette . vanessa ( laura esterman ) is a willowy former dancer and ann ( sage allen ) an overweight homebody , and they have been operating their own girl - power version of the notorious wisconsin farmhouse of the 1950 ' s serial killer ed gein , butchering passers - by and creating knick - knacks and gourmet meals from their body parts .\nafter a slam - bang opening ' ' suspended animation , ' ' which opens today in new york , chicago and los angeles , goes into something of a coma itself with the tedious exposition necessary to get the plot convolutions across . it slowly develops that clara , who is unaware of her heritage , has a sinister 15 - year - old son ( fred meyers ) , who may have inherited his grandmother ' s homicidal tendencies . at least that is tom ' s suspicion when he comes across a mass of human tissue wrapped in aluminum foil and hidden in the boy ' s toolbox .\nthe situation is creepy , but the screenplay by dorothy tristan , mr . hancock ' s wife and frequent collaborator , has trouble transforming it into genuine suspense . the menace remains vague and unfocused until one major character makes a not entirely unexpected reappearance in the last act , by which point much of the tension has been lost .\nfrom the new york times . you may opt - out at any time .\nyou agree to receive occasional updates and special offers for the new york times ' s products and services .\nmr . hancock , however , remains a fine director of actors , and ms . esterman , a gifted stage actress making a rare film appearance , delivers an eerily ambiguous performance , part lovable eccentric and part hannibal lecter . though the film was shot on high - definition video , mr . hancock ' s framing has the steadiness and precision of classic 35 - millimeter filmmaking , and his editing , far from the pointless mtv pyrotechnics in the current remake of ' ' the texas chainsaw massacre , ' ' is all but invisible and much more effective for it .\ndirected by john d . hancock ; written by dorothy tristan ; director of photography , misha suslov ; edited by dennis o ' connor ; music by angelo badalamenti ; production designer , don jacobson ; produced by mr . hancock and robert j . hiler ; released by first run features . at the quad cinema , 34 west 13th street , greenwich village . running time : 114 minutes . this film is not rated .\nwith : alex mcarthur ( tom kempton ) , laura esterman ( vanessa boulette ) , sage allen ( ann boulette ) , rebecca harrell ( hilary kempton ) , maria cina ( clara hansen ) and fred meyers ( sandor hansen ) .\nwe\u2019re interested in your feedback on this page . tell us what you think .\naccessibility concerns ? email us at accessibility @ urltoken . we would love to hear from you .\nhtml public\n- / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en\nurltoken\nyou will get a notification at the top of the site as soon as the current price equals or falls below your price . you can also optionally receive an email notification ( sent only once ) , this is specified in your\nwith our iphone -

deaf explosives enthusiast , arnie dogen the injury - prone roofer and aspiring country singer , winston rothschild , iii , the prissy sewage magnate , mike hammer the itinerant felon , dalton humphrey the avaricious storekeeper , hap shaughnessy the pathological liar , buzz sherwood the hippie pilot , and ed frid the hamster - phobic animal control officer . . . not a lot ever tends to get done , except by way of confusing the issue further .\nthe lodge members are often famous canadian actors such as graham greene ( edgar ) , gordon pinsent ( hap ) , colin mochrie ( in a small role as hotdog expert frank kepke ) and paul gross ( as naive yuppie kevin black ) .\ni ' m a man , but i can change , if i have to , i guess .\nanother popular segment is\nadventures with bill\n, featuring the title character ' s attempts ( or more accurately , spectacular failures ) to get a grip on the whole outdoorsman gig , in slapstick pantomime shown in black and white and narrated by red .\nthe possum lodge word game\nis a typically loose attempt at a password - esque game show , with red and harold trying to get a lodge member to say a certain word for a prize .\nculture is not unknown here at the lodge , either \u2014 it may be gravely wounded , but it sure isn ' t being ignored . red is often seen in short transitional vignettes playing guitar and singing ( accompanied by harold on spoons or homemade drum ) , or reciting poetry . occasionally he simply addresses his fellow middle - aged schlubs directly and rather poignantly , concluding with\nremember , i ' m pulling for ya , we ' re all in this together .\nthe show always ends with the sounds of the lodge meeting beginning , in the basement . red stays upstairs for a moment to deliver a quasi - aesop and a message to his wife , bernice .\noften the opening of the lodge meeting will run behind the closing credits , with the studio audience as the lodge members .\nand to the rest of you , thanks for watching . on behalf of myself and harold and the whole gang up here at possum lodge , keep your stick on the ice .\nthe entire series can be watched for free on the show ' s official youtube channel .\naccidental aiming skills : in the black - and - white segment of\nguinness world records\n, red and dalton are attempting to destroy a lamp by putting rocks and balls in slingshots , and thwarting mike ' s attempts to just whack it with a board . after they build a supersized slingshot that accidentally launches mike into a tree ( instead of the bowling ball they intended to launch ) , mike gets angry , picks up the board , and throws it . . . straight into the lamp .\naffectionate parody : both poking fun at , and celebrating , the foibles of middle - aged men .\nthe red green book , authored by the show ' s creators and published in 1995 , contains lots of interesting trivia about the lodge . for instance , lodge membership is open to all genders , all races , religions and sexual orientations . to get in , you just need to have access to tools , trucks , building materials , explosives , medical supplies , legal services or cash .\nthe names of some of the segments were revealed in the book too . the segment where two lodge members give the viewers advice on how to get out of a jam with their wives is called buddy system , while the segment where red gives a monologue to his fellow middle - aged men while sitting at a desk winding a fishing lure is called north of 40 .\nmotor vehicle used , seen or mentioned in the series . including buzz ' s seaplanes .\none of the articles in red green talks cars : a love story told readers what their car indicated about them . anyone who drives an\nold car that barely runs\nis a lodge member . more specific examples include stinky peterson ' s trabant , moose thompson ' s gremlin , douglas hendrychuk ' s nash , harold ' s pinto and red ' s possum van .\nalmost famous name : harold tells red that he ' s been asked to be in a magazine ad for dodge . red excitedly agrees when he hears that not only will he be depicted in a hot tub surrounded by bikini - clad girls , but he gets the product for free ! he ' s a bit disappointed when it turns out he ' s just going to get his picture taken in front of a green screen and have it edited in later , but he ' s still excited to get a free dodge truck . at the end of the episode harold clarifies that the company is a swedish company named\ndoj\n. . . that makes adult diapers . . . and there are dozens of crates full of them outside .\namusing injuries : present all over the place , no one is safe from this . adventures with bill turns it up to eleven .\nand knowing is half the battle : parodied in ranger gord ' s educational cartoons , in which a muscular version of gord gives humorously inaccurate advice regarding forest life ( e . g . , that stones are really eggs ) . often , the funny animal representations of red and harold would actually give correct information in response , but since these are gord ' s cartoons , his explanations inevitably turn out to be true anyway .\n1991 , 1993 seasons : a paint - by - numbers of the lodge quickly getting colored in .\n1994 - 1997 seasons : a flythrough of a cityscape , followed by a crash into the\nnew red green show\nlogo and a 180 - degree turn to reveal the lodge .\nanti role model : in more than one\nhandyman corner\n, red suggests one way to get the supplies you need is to steal them .\naren ' t you going to ravish me ? : non - sexual version . when the women of possum lake get together to chat , several lodge members spy on them with a microphone to find out what their wives are saying about them , expecting lots of complaints . they ' re very insulted when none of the women even mention their husbands at all .\nin one episode , red advises teenagers against doing crime , saying ,\njust say no to assault , break - and - enter , arson , murder , theft , drug trafficking , and . . . oh , yeah , real estate sales .\nred : yeah . uh , so i ' m\u0096 i ' m gonna add a special event to it . harold is gonna do a cannonball off the top of rock reef point , singing the national anthem , butt - naked , with his hair on fire . that okay with you , harold ?\nharold : oh , yeah . yeah , yeah , whatever . . . hey , wait a minute , i don ' t know the national anthem !\naside glance : red frequently looks at the camera in\nadventures with bill\n.\nin one episode , red , dalton , and mike hurt themselves . mike goes to a masseuse and feels better , and recommends red and dalton go as well , which they first refuse but change their minds once they find out she ' s attractive . it turns out she ' s a male undercover cop , and red and dalton are disgusted , but mike doesn ' t care and plans to keep going , since he was the only one going there specifically for treatment and not just to get touched by a pretty girl ( although you would think he ' d at least be concerned about the cop part ) .\naudience participation : in later seasons , the studio audience would provide the\nthree little words men find so hard to say\nin\nthe experts\nsketches .\nnew member night\nwould also have volunteers from the studio audience play the prospective new lodge member .\nauthor appeal : steve smith is apparently something of a car buff in real life . throughout the show there are hundreds of shout outs and take thats to various cars ( the chrysler k - car is a favorite target ) and at least half of all the handyman corner projects involved something to do with cars . a lot of gags also involve beer , something that smith even lampshades in his introduction to one of the episodes on the dvd collections .\nbait and switch : the prizes for the possum lodge word game are presented in this manner with whoever is hosting ( usually harold ) exciting the contestant with something that sounds desirable but only to reveal that the prize is ridiculously cheap . . . and occasionally used .\nbonnie kisses harold , hard , in the finale when the two are officially wed . also counts as a crowning moment of funny , since she does it before red can even tell harold ,\nyou may now kiss the bride .\n: possum lodge is full of these , by red ' s own admission . of course , when big eater is the norm , the guy\nred : moose would eat a garden shed if you put enough hot sauce on it .\n: red discovers that ranger gord has some pictures of bigfoot that are actually clear and in focus , proving bigfoot really exists . he excitedly tells gord that the two of them should sell the pictures to a major tv network and get rich . however , gord insists that since he is the professional forest ranger , he should do all the talking to maintain credibility . red promptly gives the pictures back , knowing that nothing could give them\nin one of gord ' s educational cartoons , he lectures on how to protect oneself against a sasquatch . because of its eponymous big feet , gord explains , the sasquatch usually attacks by kickboxing its opponent , so one should keep their arms in front of their face at all times .\nbasically everything that comes out of hap ' s mouth . it ' s not that hap is a bad liar in as much as his stories are so over the top that there ' s no way he could ' ve done all of it .\nsame for doc render in the second season . there ' s speculation from the other members whether or not doc is an actual doctor ; well - deserved speculation given that doc treats a bullet wound with several boxes of band - aids .\nblazing inferno hellfire sauce : red mixes up a batch for a lodge barbecue . it consisted mostly of ketchup and mustard , with some various hot peppers thrown in and some other ingredients , including the\nsecret ingredient\n, which was some blue goop in an unlabelled container ( harold gets it analyzed , it ' s jet fuel ) . to demonstrate how hot it is , dalton tastes a little bit on a toothpick and is clearly in serious pain . then harold tastes a big spoonful .\nblind without em : happens to bill once when he does boxing with harold . red removes bill ' s glasses for him , thinking that one shouldn ' t fight a guy with glasses , and sets them on top of a pail in a corner of the ring . he does not realize that bill does have a vision problem . he squints at the glasses on the pail , thinking it ' s harold and delivers an uppercut to it , only for it to fall down and hit him on the head , knocking him out and leading harold to be the winner by default .\n: harold says red ' s\nkeep your stick on the ice\nspeech in\nthe catfish project\nwhen red is in a traumatized daze .\nharold also says\nkeep your stick on the ice\n( and imitating red ' s gravelly voice in the process ) in the final episode .\nharold : oh , good , okay , yeah . ' cause usually you have a plan and you ' re an idiot , but this time . . .\nharold :\ndear experts , how are you ?\nranger gord : well actually , i ' m a little upset today , because i lost my favorite pair of sunglasses . ( gord is wearing said sunglasses on top of his head ) but y ' know , it ' s not the end of the world . no way . that doesn ' t happen until the year 2015 , in november , on a thursday , and it ' s after lunch . okay ? so you can ' t get too upset when you lose something . the thing is , you have to remember to replace the thing that you lost with something new , and the real tricky part is , you have to remember to replace the same thing with the same thing . in other words , you can ' t replace a pair of sunglasses by buying a waffle iron . okay ? there it is .

( in eesha koppikhar ' s own words )\nnow , murad and his partner , vilas ( manish wadhwa ) , flee the city with shabri . but rajdharbhau closes in on murad and vilas . murad is killed . shabri then swears revenge against rajdharbhau , the man who took away all she ever had . is she able to avenge the murders ? or does the arm of law on the one hand and the matka king\u2019s reach on the other prove to be too much for her ?\nplot : day in and day out as she powers on the grinding machine of her flour mill shabri senses time is running out for her . she wants to live her life her own way but is burdened with reponsbility of supporting her parents and younger brother . opportunity presents itself in the most unlikely way and shabri a common working woman from a mumbai slum ends up threatening the biggest corridors of power in the matka gambling underworld of the city .\nshabri\u2019s only hope murad discovers how incapable he is of helping her in dire need . his desperation lands them in further trouble as he ends up killing his immediate boss kisnya , the brother of the notorious matka don , rajdharbhau .\nin ramu ' s movie shabri , isha plays a woman who runs a crime racket from a mumbai chawl . in accordance with her character , isha sports a non - glamorized look in the film and even speaks foul language .\nshabri is the story a simple woman from a mumbai slum who ends up shaking the biggest corridors of power in the matka underworld . it\u2019s a story of survival , dignity , determination and human triumph in the face of impossible odds .\ni have been to shabri more than 3 times and it never fails to make us happy . the employees are very professional and humble and they follow the instructions . food is always filling and tasty and clean . the price is very affordable .\nisn\u2019t exactly an intricate underworld drama that traces the upsurge and downfall of its female protagonist . it is more of a basic revenge plot with an underworld backdrop . when his brother is unjustly killed in police custody , shabri ( esha koppikhar ) kills the cop and goes absconding . an underworld bookie murad ( raj arjun ) helps her go underground and in turn enrages his boss , the underworld head rajdhar bhau ( pradeep rawat ) . when rajdhar bhau kills murad , shabri swears to seek revenge .\nlalit marathe\u2019s first directorial venture shabri featuring isha koppikar is all set to release this weekend ( august 26 ) and the director has already planned a sequel to the film . penned by marathe himself , shabri has been in the making for almost five years and was stalled at the post - production stage . marathe used the time to not only write a sequel to the film , the script of which is almost complete , but to also author a book about the film\u2019s making titled a dog\u2019s friday .\nbut the major limitation of the narrative is that it spans a very short period in the life of shabri which ends with her induction into underworld . the only usp of this otherwise conventional underworld drama is the gender of its protagonist and it would have been more gratifying experience to see the functioning of the female form in a powerful position . but by the time shabri gains authority , the film has already reached its end credits . on that note , the film fails to tap its prime potential .\none day , the innocent bandya is rounded up along with other unruly boys of the neighbourhood by the dreaded police inspector khare ( datta sonawane ) . bandya succumbs to police torture . this infuriates shabri so much that she ends up violating the law . much as murad would like to help shabri , he realises that he is helpless . murad\u2019s desperation leads him to kill his immediate boss , kisnya ( niraj kumar ) , who is the brother of rajdharbhau ( pradeep rawat ) , the matka don of the city .\n\u200bhome of gold gch pioneer\nshabri - el ' s\nshaken bacon - - america ' s # 1 m astiff bitch all systems 2014\u200b\u200b and 2015 . 2016 mcoa bob in texas ! ! ! ! ! ! ! thank you judge holly scott ! ! !\nwhen a plot is overdone to the core and tried over and over again , the audience soon tends to lose interest . this is what happens to shabari . it would have been refreshing to see the female protagonist take over the world and show more authority and power . unfortunately , by the time shabri gains authority , the film has almost reached the end . the narrative could have been a little more in depth and covered a larger part of shabri\ns life , thus getting the audience to ' connect\nwith the character .\nthis fellow pumps a full round of bullets on a man he\u2019s been trying to get hold of for a while . his victim happens to be shabri\u2019s partner . she and this dead partner had together killed the said don\u2019s brother . the don , who\u2019s rightly mad , gets another gun out , starts shooting at the dead - body all over again . he still patiently leaves shabri , the partner in crime , alone to wail in the corner of his den . that\u2019s a pretty dumb don , if you ask me . the slum girl merrily leaves , wants to kill him off now . good for her .\nshabri lives an impoverished lifestyle along with her mother ; alcoholic father ; and younger brother , bandya . she is the sole earner in her family and embittered at the manner in which life has treated her . she not only chastises bandya for spending too much time on the street with a goon , murad , instead of focusing in his studies but also her father . things take a turn for the worst when bandya is arrested by inspector khare and tortured in the police station . when shabri goes to see him , khare attempts to molest her , but she manages to escape . the next day bandya is found dead allegedly on the grounds that he tried to escape from police custody . refusing to believe this ' version ' , shabri takes a knife and goes to confront khare . it is this confrontation that will result in khare ' s death with his own service revolver , resulting in a manhunt from vikhroli to bhendi bazar , and she will be compelled to seek murad ' s help to go in hiding . but things are only to worsen when a heavily pressured murad decides to enlist the assistance of kisnya bhau , the brother of gangster , rajdharbhau , resulting in more danger for not only shabri but also her parents .\nwith the release of shabri , one more film has been added to the list of movies made on the underworld . films like satya ( 1998 ) and vaastav ( 1999 ) did well at the time as it had a realistic feel to it . sarkar , starring amitabh bachchan and abhishek bachchan also did average business at the box office .\nshabri lives an impoverished lifestyle along with her mother ; alcoholic father ; and younger brother ,

shabri . however , clearing the air , marathe says , \u201cthere was never an issue between rgv and me . he read my script and really liked it and encouraged me to direct the film . he showed immense faith in me and never interfered with my work . he supported me in every possible way . it was like i got everything on a platter . \u201d\neesha koppikar delivers a very good performance in the title role . she plays the avenging angel very efficiently . raj arjun is good . manish wadhwa also does well . pradeep rawat is effective . zakir hussain is brilliant as inspector qazi . he is delightful to watch . sanjay kulkarni ( as inspector kadam ) and datta sonawane ( as inspector khare ) lend good support . niraj kumar , kishore nandlaskar ( as shabri\u2019s father ) , vimal mhatre ( as

not - so - great\nroles to boast about surprises you with her ability to emote . though eesha did not have too many dialogues to deliver , she did excellently well through her expressions and body language . raj arjun and pradeep rawat have both shown that they can act well . zakir hussain gets repetitive in his erratic act . over all\nshabri the restaurant is a life style restaurant operated by the educators passionate about healthy dinning and motivated by happy dinning experiences . our wide range of food varieties , swiss delicacies and freshly baked items are already renowned in the

is an inspiring example from the treasure house of hindu mythology bearing testimony to the efficacy of true devotion and divine grace . the character of shabari is an epitome of patience , perseverance , devotion , purity and spirit of service . though the meeting between rama and shabari lasted only for a few minutes , it contained a decisive moment when all her penance and devotion were duly rewarded by rama .\nshabari was born in a hunter\u2019s family . though she belonged to a clan that was fully given away to killing animals through cruel ways , by birth shabari was averse to killing and causing harm to animals on any grounds including for fun or for food . differing from the ways of the family , she resisted non vegetarian food . it was a usual practice in the family of hunters to sacrifice animals during weddings . unable to bear the harm that would befall animals , she ran away from the family just before her forced marriage .\nshabari was wandering in the forest and being hungry , she approached the hermitage of sage mathanga asking for food . at the first sight of this humble lady , sage mathanga realized that she was a great soul . therefore , he invited her to stay in the ashram engaging herself in the service of the community there . shabari was more than pleased to take up the tasks of cleaning and housekeeping at the ashram . she was greatly devoted to sage mathanga and was rendering a selfless service to him with a great sense of devotion and dedication .\nby nature , forests are rugged in their surface . it is quite natural to find stones , pebbles , twigs , dry leaves and thorns all around . every day , the sage used a particular route to reach the river nearby to complete his morning ablutions . shabari deemed maintaining this route in a perfect way free of thorns and pebbles as her top priority . in order to see that the road is free of thorns , she used to lie down and roll on the way so that the thorns prick on her body and are removed so that the sage\u2019s feet are not hurt .\nafter years of staying in the ashram , the final moments of the sage appeared . when sage mathanga disclosed this to shabari , she pleaded that she too would have the privilege of merging in him before he left the world . but the sage said she was a lucky one and her good deeds and penance over the years had earned her a great fortune of having the darshan of sri rama when he would be on his way years later in search of mother sita . the sage asked her to wait for those blessed moments .\nrama and lakshmana were passing by the route in search of mother sita . rama had known the divine task awaiting him in the ashram of sage matanga and therefore they both entered the hermitage . all over the years , shabari was waiting for rama as instructed by sage mathanga . shabari had gathered the wild fruits for rama which she offered him with great devotion . in order to source the best ones , she would bite them and check before offering them to the lord . her innocent devotion pleased the lord who granted her liberation before leaving the place .\nwe noticed that you ' re using an unsupported browser . the tripadvisor

director lalit marathe gets the grammar of the genre as much correct as his mentor\u2019s better works . everything from the pallid colour tone to the caustic editing patterns reminds of rgv of yore . the camera movements and sound effects were more poised and persuasive then .\nalso marathe\u2019s direction is more subtle and suggestive as he conveys more through the scene per se than using literal dialogue . like rgv\u2019s common cold -

qnoeh ( no exception handling ) on some platforms to get a bit of additional performance . these days the compilers do much better at not degrading performance when exception handling is allowed and not used , but since our performance folks will sell their kids for a 1 % improvement , we\u2019ve kept using flags like this and the associated restriction . components that must ( or want ) to use exception handling must \u201cfirewall\u201d any exceptions , not letting them get thrown to external code ( and also explicitly enable exceptions for their code ) .\nwe had a note in the coding standards not to use rtti ( run time type identification ) , because exceptions are required . that was a confusing and incomplete statement to include in our standards . it was interpreted by one developer as meaning that none of :\nwere allowed . however , only the dynamic _ cast is a rtti operation , and only the dynamic _ cast will throw an exception when the cast doesn\u2019t match the underlying type .\ni\u2019ve now fixed up our coding standards . it now references dynamic _ cast instead of rtti .\nthe db2 code is still very c\u2019ish , compiled with a c + + compiler . i\u2019d say the bulk of the casts in our code are old style c casts , and that most of our developers ( including myself ) don\u2019t even know when to use the \u201cnew\u201d cast operations . here\u2019s some thoughts on these :\ni\u2019ve seen a fair amount of const _ cast use in our code , and i know personally how this can be very useful . an example :\nvolatile int x ; void foo ( int * y ) ; foo ( const _ cast < short * > ( & x ) ) ; / / compilation error foo ( const _ cast < int * > ( & x ) ) ; / / allowed . just strips the volatile ( or const ) off the pointer type .\na second nice use of const _ cast < > ( ) is to enforce type checking in macros . if the macro parameter is supposed to be a pointer to type t , you can enforce that by using a const _ cast < t * > . this assumes that you don\u2019t actually care about the const - ness of the pointer , and will force a compile error if the macro is used with any other type .\nin general i don\u2019t think it\u2019s a bad idea to use the new cast operators , since they represent a hierarchy of weaker than c style casts . you can also search for cast operations by name in a given file if they are used , which is much harder to do with a c style cast .\ni\u2019m not sure how much use of static _ cast < > and reinterpret _ cast < > we have in the code .\ndeclaring my own stupidity , without looking them up , i didn\u2019t personally know how to use the \u201cnew style\u201d static _ cast and reinterpret _ cast operations correctly . i use a c cast by habit unless i\u2019m trying to strip const or volatile attributes ( or enforce a type in a macro ) .\nif db2 coders start using these , it will likely confuse old guys like me for a while , but i figure i can learn about these .\nif that doesn\u2019t work or is not allowed you can use : a c style cast .\nhtml public\n- / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en\nurltoken\n* setting channel preference will take you directly to the respective channel when you come in next time .\nsupported browsers : internet explorer : version 7 . 0 and above , chrome , firefox and safari . best viewed at 1024 x 768 resolution and above .\nthis browser doesn ' t support spotify web player . switch browsers or download spotify for your desktop .\nlisten to all your favourite artists on any device for free or try the premium trial .\nsorry , we just need to make sure you ' re not a robot . for best results , please make sure your browser is accepting cookies .\nsubscribe to google play music and listen to this album and millions of other songs . first month free .\nthe film has been directed by azhagamperumal and has in the cast srikanth , meera jasmine , murali and vivek . vidya sagar brings edgy and upfront songs for the film .\nour website is made possible by displaying online advertisements to our visitors . please consider supporting us by disabling your ad blocker . close [ 5 ]"]}

as he sees it , ( by his bandmates & mcclaren ) he never overcomes , but sid is delusioned that he can make it on his own and still be a junkie . nancy perputates this idea . we watch them fall into a downward spiral of drugs , alcohol , and violence ( both physical & verbal ) . eventually , nancy wants sid to make good on their suicide pact . on oct . 12 , 1978 nancy was found dead in room 100 at the chelsea hotel in nyc . no one really knows what happened that night , sid was too strung out to remember . most scholars believe that they became physically violent with one another ( as they often did ) and somehow she was stabbed in the abdomen and bled to death . sid was charged with her murder , and did time on riker ' s island . while he was out on bail , he overdosed on herion febeuary 2 , 1979 . his only request was to be buried with nancy .\nbut vicious was later to retract his confession , claiming he could not recall anything about the night nancy -

director alex cox\u2019s follow - up to repo man , a project that had taken its cues ( and certainly its soundtrack ) from the los angeles punk scene . in sid and nancy , which was originally titled love kills , cox and co - writer abbe wool wanted to explore the drug - infused relationship between sid vicious , bassist for the sex pistols , and nancy spungen , a groupie who fell for sid . the film would portray the dysfunctional affair that would result in the death of both lovers .\nthe official soundtrack contains no songs sung by either the sex pistols or sid vicious .\nsid vicious , the sex pistols bassist who was arrested for the murder of his girlfriend nancy spungen , but who died in 1979 from a heroin overdose before the case came to court . gary oldman stars in the lead role . sid & nancy has been restored for its 30th anniversary and will be released in cinemas on 5 august , and dvd , blu -

a self - portrait in the guise of sid and a high point of the sensation show at the royal academy in 1997 .\nthe new vinyl edition of sid & nancy ( music from the motion picture soundtrack ) has been remastered from the original analogues and is pressed on 180g vinyl , faithfully reproducing the 1986 release . you can purchase it here .\nis also a surprisingly touching love story , and gary oldman is outstanding as the late punk rock icon sid vicious .\nwhat the film didn\u2019t generate , however , was very much money . sid and nancy failed to make back its $ 4 million budget during its theatrical release . yet , the movie has done better as a cult favorite on video and dvd and is a fixture on magazine lists of great biopics and rock and roll films .\na lacerating love story , sid & nancy chronicles the brief , intense attachment of two of punk ' s most notorious poster children , sex pistols bassist sid vicious and his girlfriend , nancy spungen . director alex cox balances a bleak evocation of star - crossed love with surreal humor and genuine tenderness , creating a compelling portrait of the late ' 70s punk scene . with brilliant performances by gary oldman and chloe webb , the film ' s haunting imagery and black comedy resonate long after the final frames .\nthe director films the relation involving sid vicious , the sex pistol ' s bass player , and his girl -

shirt and poster printers since his early death . the reality of his involvement in the pistols ( as documented in julien temple ' s outstanding documentary the filth and the fury ) is much more complex and sad . oldman gets at this inner sadness without the benefit of temple ' s film or two decades of hindsight . his sid is a creation of pure actor ' s instinct and he completely disappears into the character .\nsex pistols frontman john lydon has said he feels partly responsible for bandmate sid vicious\u2019 heroin overdose .\nafter oldman turned it down . both oldman and day - lewis were in the running to play sid vicious in alex cox\u2019s\nhe was sid vicious , bass guitarist with the notorious sex pistols . she was nancy spungen , a young american groupie . bound by sex , drugs and rock ' n ' roll they became inseparable . . . until that fateful night in 1978 . the cops are summoned to room 100 of new york ' s chelsea hotel , to find nancy lying dead in a pool of blood . sid is arrested , taken away and charged with stabbing his lover to death .\nin an extensive new interview with the daily record , lydon said of the incident : \u201c nancy spungen was a hideous , awful person who killed herself because of the lifestyle and led to the destruction and subsequent death of sid and the whole fiasco . i tried to help sid through all of that and feel a certain responsibility because i brought him into the pistols thinking he could handle the pressure . he couldn\u2019t . the reason people take heroin is because they can\u2019t handle pressure . poor old sid . \u201d\neven if\nsid and nancy\ndoesn ' t quite represent the imperfect perfection in which punk music so often traffics , alex cox ' s confident visual symbolism -

crossed lovers in sid and nancy had worse problems than those teens from verona . repo man director alex cox ' s film told the harrowing ( yet weirdly romantic ) true story of sex pistols bass player sid vicious , his groupie - turned - girlfriend nancy spungen , and their descent into heroin - flavored destruction . despite good reviews and excellent performances by newcomers gary oldman and chloe webb , the 1986 biopic did poorly in theaters and gained its cult following later\u2014the same way a lot of punk bands did , fittingly .\nsid vicious was not stupid , but he did not have any emotional resources with which to deal with fame . as wobble says :\njohn lydon kept a link with his past , and that saved him , but sid had no past .\nsid was a lost boy who , like peter pan , never grew beyond childhood , and his spectacular demise was both exploited and unmourned .\nalex cox ' s biopic of sex pistols bassist sid vicious , chronicling his ill -

crossed love affair between iconic sex pistols bassist sid vicious and his american girlfriend nancy spungen . this culminated in spungen\u2019s murder at new york\u2019s chelsea hotel on 12 october 1978 . though arraigned for her murder , vicious never stood trial as he died of a drug overdose while out in bail in february 1979 .\njohn lydon famously despises cox\u2019s film for inaccuracies both of the period and about his friend , but sid is viewed with a warmth and affection by the camera , which underlies the fact that most people seem to forget now ; sid was so incredibly young when he died .\nbut this was also the moment when punk truly became pop . during 1978 , mclaren kept the pistols going without lydon . as sid dissolved further into a hail of drugs , he had a top 10 record in july with his radical cover of my way . as the single slipped down the charts , sid and nancy moved to new york , never to return .\nbut her pain has depth and shading . in her most powerful scene , nancy makes a late - night long - distance telephone - box call to her mother in america , claiming that she and sid have just got hitched . in fact , she just needs enough cash to score smack .\nwatching sid on drums that night playing with siouxsie and the banshees doing a rendition of the lord\u2019s prayer was shocking , brilliant and terrible . the atmosphere was beyond anything i had experienced back in rural scotland . sid was tall , thin and gangly , and remarkably good - looking in a spotty kid kind of way . around the bar area he was noisy and aggressive and definitely the centre of attention , playing the tough guy , and in our innocence he seemed quite terrifying . a scene in sid and nancy captures that very evening when he brutally assaults music journalist nick kent , a soft hippy - like writer who was an easy target . not the act of a tough guy .\npact is a long - time member of sid - w because of the value it brings to our staff and organization as a whole . from high - quality events to the unparalleled access that sid - w membership provides to decision - makers at the highest levels of the u . s . government , membership in sid - w is invaluable .\nnancy\u2019s gradual collapse before our eyes , as she realises that her mother isn\u2019t falling for it , is perfectly calibrated : bogus matrimonial bliss warps into little - princess pleading and finally scalding , volcanic rage . the scene ends with nancy on her knees in the road . it\u2019s dynamite .\nadmitted to one of the following heller degree programs : mpp master of public policy , mba in nonprofit management , mba / mpp dual degree , ma in sustainable international development ( sid ) , mba / sid dual degree , ma in conflict resolution and coexistence ( coex ) , mba / coex dual degree , sid / coex dual degree , ms in global health policy and management ( ghpm ) , mba / ghpm dual degree , and sid / ghpm dual degree . the application fee will be waived for all posse alumni .\nsometimes a film can be completely rewarding in some respects and totally wrong in others . alex cox ' s sid and nancy ( 1986 , originally released on dvd by criterion , this review is of the new mgm release ) is terrific as a bizarre love story between the late sex pistols ' bassist sid vicious and junkie / groupie nancy spungen . the two lovers connect on a sadomasochistic level that is unusual and , in the film at least , leaves you with the feeling that they could have been the only people on the planet , a perfect match that could only have destroyed itself .\nwith the lacerating love story sid & nancy , alex cox reimagines the crash - and - burn affair between punk\u2019s most notorious self - destructive poster children : sex pistols bassist sid vicious and his girlfriend , nancy spungen\u2014brought to visceral life by brilliant performances from gary oldman and chloe webb . cox turns his anarchic filmmaking style on the explosive energy of the london punk scene and the degenerate streets of seventies new york , making for an eviscerating depiction of excess and addiction . through the lens of cinematographer roger deakins , the imagery goes from swooning to grimy , and the film\u2019s bleakness is balanced with surreal humor and genuine tenderness , making for an affecting , music - fueled vision of doomed love .\nit\u2019s been 30 years since british filmmaker alex cox unleashed his transatlantic punk love story sid and nancy ( 1986 ) , a bruising journey to the heart of the self - destructive relationship between the sex pistols\u2019 sid vicious ( a young gary oldman ) and nancy spungen ( chloe webb ) . the first half of the film frames the meeting of the lovers in london . clad in leather , arms scarred by needles , the conspicuous couple leave a trail of mayhem in their wake as they hop from soho to bayswater , from bayswater to bermondsey .\nchloe webb also received praise for her work as nancy . although courtney love lobbied incredibly hard for the part , she had to settle for a minor role as gretchen . love wasn\u2019t the only musician involved in sid and nancy . the circle jerks , iggy pop and nico all appear in the film , the members of guns n\u2019 roses were hired as extras for some of the los angeles scenes , and former clash frontman joe strummer contributed much of the soundtrack .\n, kowalski\u2019s documentary on the sex pistols\u2019 american tour . \u201cthey were incredibly pathetic and i felt like i was taking advantage of them just by being there , \u201d kowalski is quoted as saying . listening to nancy berate a nodding - off sid in her new york whine you realize just how inseparably dysfunctional the two really were . she yells at him to try to stay awake for the interview , to stop dropping lit cigarettes on her , and she also notes that he\u2019s constantly spilling coffee and orange juice on her\u2014sid is always the helpless , careless kid who wouldn\u2019t be able to function without nancy ( she actually claims sid would have died around fifteen deaths already if not for her ! ) .\nthings don\u2019t go well at that first meeting when groupie nancy ( played by chloe webb , equal to oldman in chameleon ability ) announces she has \u201call\u201d of the sex pistols albums back in new york before calling sid by johnny\u2019s name . it\u2019s only later when they end up two bodies on the sardine - packed floor of a flat that the dysfunctional relationship begins . nancy literally wedges herself between sid and johnny , marking a turning point in the boys\u2019 friendship . a girl has come between them . it\u2019s time to grow up .\nafter his death , the punk rocker ' s mother requested he be laid to rest in the same plot where nancy was buried , but her parents refused . the following week , anne flew with her son ' s ashes to the philadelphia cemetery and secretly sprinkled them over nancy ' s gravestone .\nsid and nancy premiered in the directors ' fortnight section of the 1986 cannes film festival , in a lavish , packed auditorium . according to cox , some or all members of duran duran were in the audience , and when gary oldman first appeared on the screen , one of them yelled ,\njohnny thunders !\n( referring to another punk musician who ' d been with the new york dolls ) . the clash ' s joe strummer , who ' d consulted on sid and nancy , stood and yelled ,\nshut the f * * * up !\nduly chastened by their elders , duran duran shut up .\nan amazing ride through the short life of the sex pistols and sid vicious featuring gary oldman in one of the best performances i ' ve seen .\ndirecting select film edge city repo man sid & nancy straight to hell walker el patrullero the winner death & the compass three businessmen kurosawa : le emmanuelle : ahl mike hama must die ! revengers tragedy ijd -

floor room in the early hours say vicious was out for the count . and at least two say the previously unknown michael , who lived on the sixth floor of the hotel , was with sid and nancy as late as 5am - around the time she was stabbed .\nwith a history as an actress , and the wife of an actor - turned - politician , nancy was known for her glamorous lifestyle and her fashion \u2014 she was also known for her hollywood friends , including rock hudson and elizabeth taylor .\nsid lezak was a lawyer , activist , mediator , mentor and inspiration to all who knew him . the lezak legacy fellows program reflects his legacy : his life , career , humanity and commitment to social justice , public service and the community he loved . please join us in keeping sid\u2019s legacy alive by attending a wine and cheese reception to celebrate the lezak legacy fellows program .\nit\u2019s a more inspired week , happily , for reissues , beginning with the 30th - anniversary re - release of alex cox\u2019s white - hot , needles - under - the - nails punk elegy sid and nancy ( studiocanal , 18 ) , in which gary oldman \u2019s feral , furious role as doomed sex pistols bassist sid vicious remains an extraordinary spectacle : a frightening , untamed beast of a performance and the rarely reached benchmark for all rock biopic impersonations since .\nbecause cox creates his own living , breathing world we\u2019re not so concerned with historical accuracy , with \u201cthe facts . \u201d so what if the guy playing johnny rotten doesn\u2019t look much like the real john lydon ? his constant correcting of sid\u2019s singing , \u201cwe don\u2019t fucking care ! \u201d with \u201cno \u2019fucking\u2019\u2014just \u2019we don\u2019t care\u2019 ! \u201d tells us more about the character than the right shade of rotten red . the shot of sid and nancy sleeping , their heads of jet black and bottle blonde cuddled together like furry animals , and the scene in which nancy , dressed in fetish gear , answers linda\u2019s phone and falls to her knees when she hears sid\u2019s voice calling from america , visualize their love better than any \u201ctrue events\u201d ever could . \u201cyou\u2019re just gonna have to have sex with somebody else ! \u201d an irritated nancy finally exclaims , hanging up as linda calls for her\u2014this is followed by a quick cut to a long shot of sid at a phone booth , shit - kicker cowboys in the foreground . their relationship goes from being so near to so desperately far away .\nthe astonishing thing about\nsid and nancy\nis the amount of subtle information it gives us about their relationship , given the fact that the surface of the movie is all tumult and violence , pain and confusion . this movie doesn ' t take the easy way out and cast these two lovers as romeo and juliet , misunderstood waifs . it sees beneath their leather and chains , their torn t - shirts and steel - toed boots , to a basically conventional relationship between an ambitious woman and a man who was still a boy .\nyou were keen to romanticize sid & nancy without glorifying them but now feel you failed in that endeavor . can you explain how the film , in your mind , fails to do so ? it may be an inevitable part of all drama , that in depicting something you make it to some extent heroic or glorious . or it could be that the ending of sid & nancy , with the\ntaxi to heaven\nwhich seems very sentimental now , contradicts the message of the film ( spoken by the guy in the methadone clinic ) .\nvideo : mgm ' s current release of sid and nancy replaces the criterion version ' s non - anamorphic transfer . the new disc has a crisper picture , more vibrant colors , and , of course , an anamorphic transfer . really the improved picture is the only improvement over the previous disc , which looks good for an earlier release .\n, what makes the film a universal tale . cox wastes no time\u2014even when sid accidentally walks through a plate - glass door and goes down in slo - mo , we don\u2019t hear glass and people shrieking but disembodied voices arguing . the next scene reveals it\u2019s the beginning of the end , the loud break - up of the band around a comatose sid\u2019s hospital bed . by the time we see sid sitting up , raptly watching a monster movie as a christmas - decorated shopping cart rolls into the room , we know nancy is going to be standing in that doorway . sappy and sentimental ? sure . isn\u2019t that what love is ?\nin one scene , sid vicious carves letters into his chest with a razor blade , accompanied by blood flowing from the wounds .\nthe movie really comes alive in the new york scenes in the claustrophobic melancholy of the chelsea hotel room where sid and nancy had become unwelcome residents . director cox handles these scenes with a gentleness that captures the punk romeo and juliet\u2019s sense of isolation and hopelessness . it builds into a frenzy where it becomes increasingly obvious something very bad is about to happen . at this moment in his career sid thought that he was a star who had arrived , but he was fleeing , and people who are fleeing have no idea where they are going .\njust days before nancy ' s death , he had received $ 25 , 000 in cash - royalty payments from richard branson ' s virgin records .\nalex cox\u2019s movie focuses on the ill - fated romance between sid and new york groupie nancy spungen . the star - crossed lovers soon shared an insatiable desire for booze , then drugs , starting with sulphate and leading to what they called the \u201cbig h\u201d \u2013 heroin . their new - found rock \u2018n\u2019 roll utopia speedily led to a life of chaos , violence and self - destruction .\nall throughout high school , my friends and i would skip school and watch this movie . sure it ' s depressing , but it ' s also one of the coolest movies ever made . sid & nancy also introduced us to gary oldman , who sang all the songs in the movie and now has gone onto bigger things ( whether that ' s good i don ' t know ) . the extra features on this dvd are really exciting . phone interviews with sid vicious , a great video interview with the real sid & nancy , the infamous bill grundy interview , a making of documantary , and commentary by all the stars of the film . i must have seen this every day going to high school on videotape , now that that tape is all worn out , i have the dvd to see it 100 more times !\nthe discovery of the letter led some friends to speculate that nancy ' s death had been a suicide pact that had gone wrong , and spungen had administered the fatal knife wound herself .\nthis is also a hallmark of the film\u2019s director . both the guy dispensing the drugs at the methadone clinic who suddenly starts ranting about how the government uses heroin as a form of control or the creepy bellhop who begs for money after sid and nancy are moved to a new room could easily have slipped in from cox\u2019s\nbut he wasn ' t called sid sweet . vicious was a strong name to be saddled with . the script was set and , like many scripts , it took over the actor to the point where person and persona became fatally blurred .\nbe careful what you set yourself up for\nshould be one pop culture motto , and sid was more vulnerable than most .\nthe heller school is pleased to offer guaranteed partial - tuition scholarships of at least 50 % to brandeis alumni admitted to one of the following heller degree programs : master of public policy ( mpp ) , mba in nonprofit management , mba / mpp dual degree , ma in sustainable international development ( sid ) , mba / sid dual degree , ma in conflict resolution and coexistence ( coex ) , mba / coex dual degree , sid / coex dual degree , ms in global health policy and management ( ghpm ) , mba / ghpm dual degree , and sid / ghpm dual degree . the application fee will be waived for all brandeis alumni .\nsid vicious ( oldman ) , born the working clas brit john simon ritchie , becomes bass player for the suddenly world - famous sex pistols punk band in the late 1970s . fame , money , and drugs swirl about him as he clings to any american girl named nancy spungen ( webb ) . the pistols disintegrate after their u . s . tour , sid tries to sustain a solo career , but heroin addiction drags him and nancy down . one morning he awakes to find her stabbed to death and himself charged with her murder . co - writer and director alex cox made this almost too - real 1986 story after his highly quirky\nrepo man .\noldman and webb are amazingly good . watch for courtney love in a bit role as gretchen .\nthe 21 -

depicted ) . push haphazardly sets up \u201crules\u201d for its universe at the beginning of the film , then proceeds to break them left and right in the final 30 minutes . certain questions are never answered : do pushers push memories and motivations onto people , or can they simply control minds ? do watchers see potential futures or can they also see the present ( because that\u2019s actually a pretty big difference ) ? how much damage can a bleeder inflict with his scream exactly ? why are some watchers so much more accurate than others ?\nwhat a dreadful film , there is no storyline too it , they seem to just plod along , got bored within ten minutes . do not bother waste of money .\n\u201cmoonlight\u201d stars trevante rhodes , naomie harris and mahershala ali . in its limited release opening weekend , the film exceeded expectations , earning $ 445 , 552 in four theaters .\nand kevin o\u2019neill , the film has an intriguing premise ( thanks to moore ) \u2014what if the characters of victorian literature\u2019s most fantastical works were real people ? add an early example of a big studio\u2019s embrace of the steampunk aesthetic , and stephen norrington\u2019s film certainly has potential , but it wastes little time slipping into an increasingly incomprehensible plot . by the film\u2019s end , fans of the series got to leave the theater knowing they have just seen a bad film that pretty much guaranteed a good version of the material would not be seen any time soon . it would also be sean connery\u2019s final role before retiring from acting . it feels like that should be held against the movie , too .\ni admit it , i love the film push . i think it would have been stronger with a different female lead than camilla belle and removal of the romantic plot line , but the rest of the casting was fantastic . i mean dakota fanning as a punkish drunk brat , chris evans doing his super hero thing before being cap , and djimon hounsou being a bad ass head of a shady organization - it was all a great set up .\non its opening weekend , the film opened # 6 grossing $ 10 , 079 , 109 in 2 , 313 theaters with a $ 4 , 358 average .

[ 6 ]\nis an interesting , exciting , but also thought - provoking film that definitely stands out as one of last year ' s underrated titles . it ' s not perfect , as a little more attention to hounsou ' s character would have made the film much better , but what little is wrong with it doesn ' t detract from what ' s enjoyable . if you ' re looking for a superhero - type film with enough action to get by but not the cliched caricatures from fifty years ago , give this a shot .\nwell , another celebration of the film culminating in the industry ' s biggest show , the 83 ' rd academy awards , has come to an end . fo . . .\nnow warner bros . , the studio behind the film , wants the action movie to break another glass ceiling . although executives haven\u2019t commented publicly on their plans , they have internally discussed launching a formidable awards -

men\u2019 movies , but the franchise had stalled with the messy \u2018last stand\u2019 . as a way of pumping some adrenaline back into their property , the makers decided to focus on their star attraction , and released \u2018wolverine : origins\u2019 . now we all know how that worked out , but at the time , the majority of media focus was on that movie .\nabslutely inept rubbish from the csi school of film - making . not even worth the 1p i paid for the dvd . i even fast - forwarded some scenes with camilla belle .\ni got lost in this film , there ' s no doubt that it was clever but i think all the multiple types of powers that everyone had made things a little confusing .\nif you do watch -

dump is symptomatic of push ' s diffuse focus : mcguigan seems to want to merge arthouse fare with breathless action movies like jumper and the night watch series . the subject matter is propulsive adolescent fun all the way , with a pop sensibility , some nifty costume and set design , and a lot of special - effects - powered showdowns\u2014but the execution reaches for a broader audience , one so unfamiliar with the genre tropes that it needs the assiduous extra explanation , plus time to ponder each new development . the resultant moderate pacing has its appeal ; it turns push into an ambling , broody concoction along the lines of strange days . at times , a more aggressive editor would help immensely . at others , push explores its brutish future hong kong with a patience and sense of milieu that seems cribbed more from wong kar - wai than doug liman .\nit is unfortunately also the perfect example of a film that would have worked better as a tv - show . in every respect this feels like a pilot , clunkily exposing as many ideas as possible to sell it . had it focussed more on characters and plot instead of showing a universe with superpowers from all possible angles , it would have been a better film .\nalice in murderland had an awesome gimmick : a slasher movie based on alices adventures in wonderland , with the jabberwocky as the killer . unfortunately , that ' s all it has to offer . the film , despite supposedly taking place in a fancy house , was very clearly filmed in a cheap warehouse . most of the film isn ' t even focused on the killings , but instead the dynamics of a bunch of unlikable sorority sisters . add in a nonsensical in the blood angle , and the film earns its dismal 1 . 9 im db rating .\nchronicle was pretty well received , with 85 % on rotten tomatoes . i think that ' s a plus . it ' s still my favourite found footage film along with project x .\ndaniels paused . it was late september , we were back at the staghorn and he had just returned from the toronto film festival , where \u201cprecious\u201d won the audience prize , traditionally an indicator of awards and box - office glory ( last year , the winner was \u201cslumdog millionaire\u201d ) . in a week , \u201cprecious\u201d would be the centerpiece selection at the new york film festival .\nlike watching fireworks explode , plus hunks and girls with cool clothes . there ' s a far - off alternate universe in which fun , artistic people with a sense of humor were allowed to go wild on superhero movies and ya novel adaptations - push accidentally slipped through their stargate and landed on earth\ni think i realize now why i didn ' t love shaun of the dead when i first saw it . when the zombie - comedy film , co - starring english comedia . . .\ncurse of pirate death takes an already - silly title and slaps it on a dreadful movie . the film ' s a slasher starring an undead pirate , whom the film decides to paint as intimidating by calling him\npirate death ,\nas opposed to literally anything creative . the acting from most of the cast is so wooden that it makes former porn star ron jeremy ' s look shakespearean in comparison . the plot itself is a disjointed mess with no interesting characters and an overuse of flashbacks . all in all , the film deserves its 2 . 6 imdb rating .\nand given the familiarity of the material and the generally acceptable - to - lousy acting from the third - string cast ( though fanning is a surprisingly soulful , coltish exception ) , that moody tone is a lot of what push has going for it . superhero fans will likely be into push just for the cool - factor of watching embattled heroes and villains in a tense war of wits , wills , and skills . that broader audience is less likely to come along for the ride , but this particular gateway drug at least has ambition and brains going for it , as well as the usual spastic style .\ndisaster movie , which along with all the narrow / shallow parodies and crude jokes , consists of long running gags that were never funny to begin with . what makes disaster movie\nspecial\nis that it goes even further on all of this , managing to be more aggressively unfunny , more pandering , more vapid , and even cheaper - looking than the films before it . the film shot up ( or down ? ) to the # 1 spot on im db ' s worst film list in less than a day and bombed in theaters . this film was so bad that pajiba\n[ refused ] to dignify [ their ] movie with a new review\n. usa today film critic louis fehrey , in his review , said that disaster movie was an insult to the intelligence of him and his fellow americans and an insult to cinema . he subsequently published an article in usa today summing up all the reviews of the film , which were near universally negative .\ni thought push was great . but i think you ' re right about the\nfive years too soon\nthing . it could have easily been a netflix show now with a lesser known cast . or well - respected as an\nindie\nshot at the superhero world outside of marvel / dc .\ni bought this film knowing i may have a growing , unhealthy fixation on one chris evans the actor not the other one . what i got with this film was genuine excitement but more importantly i got the beautiful ming - na from tvs er and the always nice to watch cliff curtis from die hard 4 . plus a more grown up dakota fanning is a hoot and a half .\ni really enjoyed this film even though at times you could get a little confused with what was going on . fanning is the star of the picture , and is shaping up to be a great actress . the action is very good and realistic and even the powers are good . this film will keep you guessing all the way to the end , but blink and you ' ll miss something important .\njust a few months before its premiere at cannes , \u201cprecious\u201d won three awards at the sundance film festival , including a special jury prize for mo\u2019nique , who plays precious\u2019s monstrous mother . graphic as the film is , it is less so than \u201cpush , \u201d the 1996 novel on which it is based . written by an african - american poet and writer known as sapphire , \u201cpush\u201d relied on intentionally misspelled , broken and slangy english to convey precious\u2019s sense of despair and rage . the novel mixes poems by precious with sexually extreme scenes , like those in which she is forced to perform oral sex on her mother . it is almost relentlessly bleak : when precious discovers she is h . i . v . - positive , she is certain of her imminent death . daniels\u2019s movie , by contrast , offers a greater sense of possibility . he doesn\u2019t ignore her disease , hardships or struggles , but he also liberates her from them . precious is a stand - in for anyone \u2014 black , white , male , female \u2014 who has ever been devalued or underestimated .\nbarry jenkins\u2019 \u201c moonlight \u201d is a beautifully made drama that explores the life of a young man\u2019s struggles , told across three defining chapters of his life , as he grapples with his sexuality and broken family . the movie premiered at this year\u2019s telluride and toronto film festivals to critical acclaim . to accompany the film\u2019s moving story , nicholas britell composed a hypnotic and emotional score , that you can listen to below .\nphenomena . so she has actual talent ? nice . she has great charisma for the screen , especially with evans , which is good since their on -

the film was rushed ( and it shows ) to be released a week before cloverfield , hoping that unattentive moviegoers would watch their film instead of the latter .\nwhen daniels was getting up to accept the audience award at the sundance film festival in january , his cellphone rang , and it was oprah winfrey . she was calling to tell him that she had seen \u201cprecious , \u201d that the movie \u201csplit her open\u201d and that she wanted to put her might behind the film . \u201ci said , \u2018i\u2019m accepting an award right now , \u2019 \u201d daniels recalled . \u201cshe said , \u2018then why are you answering your phone ? \u2019 \u201d\non his blog , televisual ( at urltoken ) , he wrote that precious was \u201cby far the scariest movie for anyone invested in having only \u2018good\u2019 representations of black people ( \u2018the cosby show ! \u2019 ) in film and tv . \u201d\npushers have the ability to implant memories , thoughts and emotions into the minds of other people in order to manipulate them . the skill level of the pusher determines how many people the pusher is able to control at one time , and how vivid the implanted memories are . a powerful pusher can push a large group of people at the same time , basically creating a personal army . a pusher is able to make a person do anything the pusher desires , even commit suicide . a pusher ' s eyes indicate how powerful they are : their pupils will dilate to certain degrees depending on how powerful the push is ( for example , henry carver ' s eyes are rendered completely black , signifying that he is an extremely able and effective pusher ) .\nit was clear that the film was setting up a universe or a franchise . the shadow organization was still out there . there were questions left unanswered at the end of the story . i keep wondering what would have happened if the film had come out in the middle of the marvel upswing , instead of right at the start . if it would have taken off to become a great franchise with several films delving into the division and the different powers . or . . . do i just love the film but most people think it is terrible ? i admit the screamers bit was absolutely bonkers , but i still loved how fresh this new ip was and i wish it had gotten off the ground ."]}

- time journalist and a bank employee , enter filmdom as a script writer ? john paul rules out the common expectations of a family lineage in cinema and attributes it to the sheer passion celluloid evoked in him during the seventies .\ni was working with the features section of the now defunct kerala times . dr . sebastian paul , present ernakulam mla , was in charge of the section . i used to write features and other articles on cinema . this was one factor which drew me close to the medium .\nthe mapping of human emotions in cinema and the immense potential it holds enthused me to enter the world of films . i was also an active member of the ernakulam film society ,\nhe says .\nenter i . v . sasi , a hitmaker of the eighties , and john paul was asked to suggest a story for his forthcoming film . the director took the young writer to veteran playwright , thoppil bhasi . the film\nnjan njan mathram\nwas the outcome of the meeting between thoppil bhasi and john paul .\nthere were times when he used to complete 14 films in a row and still continue to churn out films with a class of their own .\nthe characters he brought out through the excellent acting of bharat gopi in\normaykayi\nand nedumudi venu in\nvidaparayum mumbe\nstill remain fresh in the minds of the malayali audience .\nwith the prathap pothan directed , mohanlal starer ,\nyatramozhi\n, john paul took a temporary break from writing scripts . he then went on to build the malayalam cine technicians ' association ( macta ) with his friends in the industry .\nmacta has grown into a major association of

[\n\uf041 flat no . 102 , s . s , prime view apartments plot no . b - 40 road , . , no . 7 , film nagar , jubilee hills , , hyderabad , telangana , india , 500045\ni agree with this , and lingaa isn\u2019t up to mark . the question is , who is the director for the job ? i think the only tamil director really capable of doing a satisfying rajnikanth film is shankar .\nsuperstar rajinikanth ' s\nlingaa\nis set for record release in the usa . the film ' s us distribution rights have reportedly been acquired by classics entertainments , one of the leading distributing companies in the country .\nin addition , the film is being sold overseas for approx 30 crore just for the tamil version . in addition to this all , there are music rights , which are with eros ,\nthe source stated .\nsince austenitic stainless steels have good properties of strength and toughness , and high corrosion resistance , they have been widely used in the field of power plants , chemical plants , and other industries [ 1 ] . the high corrosion resistance of austenitic stainless steel is due to the chemical stability of the passive film formed on the surface , and the properties of the film depends upon the alloying elements of the steels . basically , stainless steel can be defined as having a chromium content of over 12 % ; thus the passive film is mainly composed of cr 2 o 3 , and the corrosion resistance can be improved by the addition of ni , mo , w , n , etc .\nit will be the first ever film in rajinikanth\u2019s career to be releasing on his birthday , december 12 . therefore , the annual chaos and celebration are expected to hit a new high this year in theatres and multiplexes across the state . there will be the customary paal abhishekam , where rajinikanth\u2019s king - size cut - outs will be showered with milk and honey before the show is on , with fireworks in different parts of the city . at chennai\u2019s kasi theatre , fans will cut a cake for the superstar , to mark his 65th birthday and watch a special show of the film at 1am . the film will release in more than 2 , 500 screens across the country and close to 10 , 000 screens worldwide .\nlingaa somehow managed to feel rushed and interminable simultaneously . the screenplay felt slapped together , but it also dragged on and on . i can almost forgive misogyny , plot holes , etc . if the film was at least entertaining . but the film committed what , to me , is the worst sin a film like this can commit , which was that it was boring . the flashback dragged on and on and on . i was sick of hearing about that damn dam , and how great lingeswara was , the scene of him calling on everyone to forget caste , him and the british guy verbally sparring , yadda , yadda , yadda . the train fight scene was the one sign of life in the entire movie . i thought that was pretty well done .\n@ brangan : good \ud83d\ude42 since i don\u2019t really know much about cinematographic or the technical aspects of film making , i didn\u2019t comment on them . but , now , i can argue that it is not only shankar\u2019s plot and writing that are crass but also his craft\u2026\never before it hits the screens ,\nlingaa\nhas made huge pre - release business . the film ' s rights have reportedly been bagged by eros international for a whopping amount . according to reports , it could fetch \u20b9200 crore for eros prior to release .\nb compares the relationship between the polarization and pitting potential . the figures show that increasing the polarization resistance of stainless steels increases the pitting potential . that is , it should be noted that the properties of a passive film are important for enhancing the resistance to pitting corrosion .\nshows the results for the ac impedance measurement on 316l stainless steel at 0 v ( sce ) in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl solution . the passive film was formed at 0 v ( sce ) for 30 min and the ac impedance was measured .\nshows the effect of aging time on the mott - schottky plot of the passive film formed at 0 v ( sce ) for 30 min in de - aerated 3 . 5 % nacl solution at 30 \u00b0c . through the mott - schottky plot , we can find the bipolarity [\ni am glad there are people who think not so highly of padayappa . the movie hasn\u2019t aged well at all and that\u2019s why really shankar is the man\u2019s man for you . rajini taking on rajini is really the ultimate concept and endhiran for me is the best rajini film since baasha .\nbaddy , agree with a lot of what you say . the film was a lot longer than necessary . also , the lack of good villains was spot on . the whole brit crew was laughable . where is tom alter when you need him ? \ud83d\ude42 i agree , the lack of an equal opposite brings the movie down a lot . besides , the songs didn\u2019t hit home either and that becomes problematic in a movie that has such huge expectations . my biggest point is that this what you get when you have a project manager helming the film\u2026 . never been a fan of that guy .\n] . in this mott - schottky plot , a positive slope means n - type semiconductive properties , while a negative slope implies p - type semiconductive properties . therefore , the passive film formed on 316l stainless steel in sodium chloride solution reveals p - n type semiconductive properties , i . e . , the bipolar film . increasing the aging time still did not change the n - type properties , but did gradually reduce the slope of the p - type properties . in other words , the aging treatment to stainless steel deteriorated the bipolar properties , especially the p - type property and therefore reduced the pitting corrosion resistance .\nlingaa is , as many industry insiders say , rajinikanth\u2019s response to naysayers after his previous film kochadaiiyaan failed at the box - office . it is also his quickest project since he earned the title of superstar . within a month of kochadaiiyaan \u2019s release , after a leading tamil daily named vijay as the next superstar , the cast and crew of lingaa are said to have geared up , all guns blazing , to reiterate who the real superstar is and worked extra hard to finish the film in less than six months , making it his second release of the year . the shooting was completed in less than 100 days , with reportedly few or no breaks .\nthe seasonal favourite haricharan \u2019s singing is exceptionally soulful in unmai orunaal vellum , but the song as such works only intermittently . barring a few moments of brilliance in the arrangement , particularly around the interludes , the song is a rather tedious listen . the other melody fares better in comparison ; en mannava has a more appealing tune that is delivered neatly by aditi paul and srinivas . the arrangement once again soars during the interludes , especially for the way a r rahman overlays the chorus and asad khan \u2019s sitar phrases . the anthemic sound and a r rahman \u2019s voice would invariably mean that indiane vaa evokes memories of older songs of the same kind . it is an engaging listen nevertheless ; i found the use of percussion particularly interesting .\nat one point i couldn\u2019t help laughing at how awful the british actors were . just dreadful . the sets were awful , the acting was awful , the dialogue was awful , the hair and costumes were awful . alagappan nailed it when he said this felt like a balakrishna film . but without the fun of some of balakrishna\u2019s more insane fight scenes .\nanuja / rakesh \u2013 good you pointed out arr\u2019s music specifically in your posts . in all the ruckus about the movie review itself , arr seems to be getting less of the brickbats than he rightly deserves . even an average rating for this album is too much in my opinion , but background score in the film itself was mediocre too , no great shakes .\nso , all i see in shankar films again is all the terribly tiring tropes of tamil cinema , global masala - dom and some more appalling stuff wrapped in a supposedly fresh or modern package . the movies are badly written , unbelievably long and the dialogues are unexceptional . so , i can\u2019t really place shankar a notch above ksr or other mass film makers .\nhowever , pranam khareedu was released earlier at the box office . chiru known for his break dancing skills , chiranjeevi acted sofar in 149 films and his 150th film is on its way . in 2006 , chiranjeevi was honoured with the padma bhushan , india\u2019s third highest civilian award , for his contributions to indian cinema , and was presented with an honorary doctorate from andhra university .\nwrt shankar , he uses high - concept ( for indian films ) plot ideas with above - average action scenes and concepts ( the ending of enthiran was truly amazing ) , and , of course , he and arr are one of the best current director - composer teams . otherwise his films have the same undercooked female characters and regressive values as any other tamil film .\neffect of unsm on the mott - schottky plot of the passive film formed at 0 v ( sce ) for 30 min . in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl solution : ( a ) non - aged specimen ; ( b ) 1 h - aged specimen ; ( c ) 5 h - aged specimen , and ( d ) 48 h - aged specimen .\nunsm - treatment of the slightly sensitized 316l stainless steel increased the pitting potential , decreased the passive current density , and increased the resistance of the passive film . however , in the case of the heavily sensitized 316l stainless steel , the unsm - treatment decreased the pitting potential , increased the passive current density , and decreased the resistance of the passive film . this behavior is due to the dual effects by unsm - treatment . that is , unsm - treatment reduced the carbon segregation regardless of whether the stainless steel 316l was slightly or heavily sensitized . however , since this treatment created mechanical flaws in the outer surface , in the case of the heavily sensitized stainless steel , the unsm - treatment may eliminate chromium carbide , and this flaw can be a potential pitting initiation site , and therefore decrease the pitting corrosion resistance .\nthe mott - schottky plot was prepared to determine the semiconductive properties of the passive film . the specimen preparation was the same as that for the ac impedance measurement and the dc amplitude was 10 mv ( peak - to - peak ) at 1580 hz of the ac frequency [ 37 ] . the capacitance was measured at the scan rate of 50 mv / s from + 0 . 5 v ( sce ) to \u22121 v ( sce ) .\non ksr \u2014 why is he a celebrated film maker still ? i don\u2019t get that . he seems so out of tune ( thanks lingu ! ) with times . even back in his heydays apart from his kamal associations which i am sure has a lot of the latter\u2019s influence , i don\u2019t recall anything worth mentioning except for \u2013 muthu which was fun . padayappa was so - so ! padayappa infact became tolerable for me after repeat tv viewings .\nshows the effect of unsm on the nyquist plot of 316l stainless steel at 0 v ( sce ) in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl solution . except for the 48 h - aged specimen , the nyquist plots of non - or slightly - aged specimens were improved . a randles model was used to calculate the resistances of the passive film of 316l stainless steel at 0 v ( sce ) in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl .\nshows the effect of unsm on the mott - schottky plot of the passive film formed at 0 v ( sce ) for 30 min in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl solution . regardless of the unsm treatment , all of the specimens revealed p - n type semiconductive properties . the n - type properties ( positive slope ) of the non - or slightly sensitized specimens were relatively strong , but the n - type properties of the heavily sensitized specimen were relatively weak .\noh , there was one other scene that ushered in much excitement . it\u2019s when we learn it\u2019s the birthday of the rajinikanth character in the flashback . a cake is wheeled out . people sing the birthday song . fans watching lingaa on its day of release , december 12 ( rajinikanth\u2019s birthday ) , will enjoy being in the superstar\u2019s vicinity as he cuts his birthday cake . but that\u2019s just a temporary high . next time , how about a film that leaves us with happy memories on other days as well ?\nin the case of slightly sensitized 316l stainless steel , the aging time drastically decreased the pitting potential , increased the passive current density , and lowered the resistance of the passive film , even though chromium carbide and the chromium depletion zone were not formed by aging . this behavior is due to the micro - galvanic corrosion between the matrix and the carbon segregated area , and shows the importance of carbon segregation in grain boundaries to the pitting corrosion resistance of stainless steel , in addition to the formation of the chromium depletion zone .\nstainless steels have good corrosion resistance in many environments but welding or aging can decrease their resistance . this work focused on the effect of aging time and ultrasonic nano - crystal surface modification on the passivation behavior of 316l stainless steel . in the case of slightly sensitized 316l stainless steel , increasing the aging time drastically decreased the pitting potential , increased the passive current density , and decreased the resistance of the passive film , even though aging did not form chromium carbide and a chromium depletion zone . this behavior is due to the micro - galvanic corrosion between the matrix and carbon segregated area , and this shows the importance of carbon segregation in grain boundaries to the pitting corrosion resistance of stainless steel , in addition to the formation of the chromium depletion zone . unsm ( ultrasonic nano crystal surface modification ) - treatment to the slightly sensitized 316l stainless steel increased the pitting potential , decreased the passive current density , and increased the resistance of the passive film . however , in the case of heavily sensitized 316l stainless steel , unsm - treatment decreased the pitting potential , increased the passive current density , and decreased the resistance of the passive film . this behavior is due to the dual effects of the unsm - treatment . that is , the unsm - treatment reduced the carbon segregation , regardless of whether the stainless steel 316l was slightly or heavily sensitized . however , since this treatment made mechanical flaws in the outer surface in the case of the heavily sensitized stainless steel , unsm - treatment may eliminate chromium carbide , and this flaw can be a pitting initiation site , and therefore decrease the pitting corrosion resistance .\na point i\u2019d like to re - iterate , is that my comparison is with shankar and other tamil film makers . when you open it up to include hollywood films , then quite naturally , the flaws in indian movies become magnified severalfold . of course multiple / split personalities have been handled far more frequently and better in movies like psycho & primal fear in the psychological thriller genre , given a comedic twist in jim carrey\u2019s me , myself and irene and even addressed in gollum\u2019s conversations with himself in the rings trilogy , to name just a few examples .\n@ kothavaranga : i am one such binge watcher . even i find lingaa difficult to defend . i can accept anything , except for this \u2018let - us - make - any - nonsense - the - people - will - be - ok\u2019 attitude . the film was clearly half done in many parts , and any competent director would\u2019ve cut out some of the flashback portions . i liked parts of it ( unlike many people here ) , but the flashback portions were really really boring . and after kaaviyathalaivan and i , this was the law - of - averages album for rahman , i guess .\nmy most favorite part of the film was . . the character of the flashback - villain\u2019s wife was the . . don\u2019t know what to say . we know characters are written for a purpose after all but we still look for some kind of an arc or a \u2018travel\u2019 as kollywood likes to call it or some substance \u2013 but from the minute she got introduced and in every shot you could see it\u2019s written all over the script in caps she will reveal the truth . you wait to see how bad it could get and when that scene unfolded it was so bad that it was * so * good !\ncrime and punishment cast list , listed alphabetically with photos when available . this list of crime and punishment actors includes any crime and punishment actresses and all other actors from the film . you can view additional information about each crime and punishment actor on this list , such as when and where they were born . to find out more about a particular actor or actress , click on their name and you ' ll be taken to page with even more details about their acting career . the cast members of crime and punishment have been in many other movies , so use this list as a starting point to find actors or actresses that you may not be familiar with .\nwith indian , by the time , the father - son face - off comes about , i had had enough and just wanted the film to be over ! but , right from first , i thought it was clearly set up what senapathy\u2019s standing was and he wasn\u2019t one to compromise on his principles because of paternal love ( which was proved with his daughter\u2019s case as well ) . there never was going to be a moral question for him , never really any occasion for internal conflict or turmoil . so , it wasn\u2019t really intriguing to me . there was potential for some subversion with the manisha koirala character ( \u201cvaayilla praanikku ethaavathu onnunnale thaanga maatta nee\u201d ) . well , to expect complexity in the female lead is just too much , i guess !\nvip was definitely one of my favorite \u2018star\u2019 movies this year as well . but , think about it this way . dhanush is a \u2018star\u2019 no question , but he\u2019s no \u2018superstar\u2019 yet . for a dhanush film to work , you kind of need all the things you mentioned , and it all came together in vip . but do you remember the debacle that was naiyaandi\u2026 ? even take suriya for instance . he is a big \u2018star\u2019 as well , but what was the faith of anjaan\u2026 ? the likes of dhanush and suriya et . al , aren\u2019t in the same league of \u2018super\u2019 stardom as those i mentioned earlier , hence a good script , story , technicians , music , are all crucial elements for their respective movies to succeed . they can\u2019t just show up on screen and expect to ring in the cash registers unlike our \u2018superstars\u2019 \u2013 .\nwith all this , it\u2019s a small miracle that the person summoned to make a \u201crajini movie\u201d doesn\u2019t turn chalk - white with fear and flee to a foreign country under an assumed name . but that cannot excuse the films . lingaa is talky and overlong ( nearly three hours ) , plagued with pacing issues , and \u2013 worse \u2013 it tells a story that lays no claims to our emotions . rajinikanth plays two roles . in the present - day portions , he\u2019s a thief , and a lot of time is wasted on this character\u2019s doings ( one of them a heist involving a tennis ball , balloons , and sticker pottu ) till we get to a british -

curves of the time - temperature - sensitization ( tts ) diagram of aisi 316 stainless steel are displaced towards lesser time by increasing the cold work , and sensitization of the aisi 316 stainless steel accelerated the precipitation of the cr 23 c 6 carbide [ 35 ] . remarkable improvements in the degree of sensitization ( dos ) and the intergranular corrosion ( igc ) of type 304 ( uns s 30400 ) and type 316l ( uns s 31603 ) stainless steels were achieved through extreme grain boundary randomization [ 36 ] . recently , our group reported that even though chromium carbide was not precipitated , aging time drastically increased the intergranular corrosion rate of 316l stainless steel , and we confirmed that the increased intergranular corrosion rate of slightly sensitized ( not carbide formed ) 316l stainless steel was due to the carbon segregation along the grain boundaries . unsm treatment improved the intergranular corrosion resistance of aged stainless steels , and the improvement was due to the reduction of carbon segregation and the grain refinement of the outer surface , including the introduction of compressive residual stress [ 5 ] .\nas discussed above , the unsm treatment improves the mechanical properties and induces the nano - crystallization of the outer surface , but there has been little research on the effects of unsm on the anodic polarization behavior of stainless steel . this work , therefore , focused on the effect of unsm treatment on the anodic polarization behavior of aged 316l stainless steel and proposed its mechanism .\nshows the chemical composition of the aisi 316l austenitic stainless steel used in this work . aging treatments were performed at 650 \u00b0c for 1 , 5 , and 48 h in n\nprotective atmosphere , and then the steel was water quenched . unsm treatment was applied to the surface using unsm equipment ( design mecha - lm20 unsm system , asan , korea ) .\nconditions of unsm ( ultrasonic nano crystal surface modification ) treatment on 316l stainless steel .\nshows the shape and dimensions of the specimen for the electrochemical test ( anodic polarization , ac - impedance , and mott - schottky tests ) .\nspecimens were cut to a size of 1 . 5 \u00d7 1 . 5 mm , and after electrical connection , they were epoxy - mounted , and the surface was ground using # 600 sic paper and coated with epoxy resin , except for an area of 1 cm 2 . the anodic polarization test was performed in 3 . 5 % nacl solution using a potentiostat ( gamry dc 105 , warminster , va , usa ) and the reference electrode was a saturated calomel electrode ( sce ) , and the counter electrode was high - density graphite rods . the test solution was de - aerated using nitrogen gas at the rate of 100 ml / min for 30 min and the scanning rate was 0 . 33 mv / s . the pitting potential that is the least positive potential at which pits can form was determined from the anodic polarization curve .\nin order to measure the ac impedance , the specimens were ground using # 2000 sic paper , and then polished using a diamond paste ( 3 \u03bcm ) . the test solution was the same as that of the polarization test . the ac impedance measurement was performed using an electrochemical analyzer ( gamry eis 300 , warminster , va , usa ) . before measuring , passivation was treated at + 0 mv ( sce ) for 30 min . ac impedance was measured at a passivation potential from 10 khz to 0 . 01 hz and the ac voltage amplitude was 10 mv .\nthe specimen was cut to a size of 20 \u00d7 20 \u00d7 5 mm and then ground with # 2000 sic paper and polished with a 3 \u00b5m diamond paste . finally , the specimen was cleaned with ethyl alcohol , using an ultrasonic cleaner . the microstructure was observed by optical microscopy ( axiotech 100hd , zeiss , oberkochen , germany ) and sem - eds ( vega ii lmu , tescan , brno , czech republic ) , after etching by aqua regia ( 70 ml hno 3 + 30 ml hcl ) . also , an electron probe micro analyzer ( epma - 1600 15 kv , shimadzu , kyoto , japan ) was used to identify the elemental distribution of the passivated surface .\nshows the effect of aging time at 650 \u00b0c on the polarization behavior of the 316l stainless steel in de - aerated 3 . 5 % nacl at 30 \u00b0c . in the case of the annealed specimen ( 316l - 0 h ) , the corrosion potential and pitting potential were high , but the aging treatment degraded the anodic polarization behavior of the 316l stainless steel . increasing the aging time lowered the pitting potential and also increased the passive current density at 0 v ( sce ) . generally , the aging treatment formed chromium carbides in the grain boundary and grain , and then generated a chromium - depleted zone near the carbide . therefore , pitting corrosion was easily initiated at this chromium - depleted zone , and the pitting resistance was reduced . however , it is interesting to note that the pitting potential of even the 1 or 5 h - aged specimen decreased drastically , and their passive current densities greatly increased . from a thermodynamical aspect [\n] , short aging times such as 1 or 5 h could not form chromium carbides , but did degrade their passivation behavior . a similar pattern of corrosion by aging time was already observed in the intergranular corrosion behavior [\neffect of aging time at 650 \u00b0c on the polarization behavior of 316l stainless steel ( de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl ) : ( a ) anodic polarization curves ; ( b ) pitting potential with aging time ; and ( c ) passive current density with aging time .\na shows that increasing the aging time depressed the nyquist plots and their impedance circles . the polarization resistance was calculated using a randles model .\nac impedance measurement on 316l stainless steel at 0 v ( sce ) in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl : ( a ) nyquist plot ; and ( b ) r p vs . pitting potential .\nshows the effect of unsm on the polarization behavior of 316l stainless steel aged at 650 \u00b0c in de - aerated 3 . 5 % nacl solution at 30 \u00b0c . in the case of the non - aged specimen , unsm - treatment ( 316l - 0hu ) improved the anodic polarization behavior . in contrast , the unsm - treatment increased the anodic polarization behavior of 1 h and 5 h - aged specimens , but the treatment degraded the behavior of the 48 h - aged specimen .\nreveals the effect of unsm on the passive current density and pitting potential obtained in de - aerated 3 . 5 % nacl solution at 30 \u00b0c . in summary , the unsm - treatment on the slightly sensitized specimen reduced the passive current density and increased the pitting potential , while the treatment on the heavily sensitized specimen increased the passive current density and lowered the pitting potential . it is interesting that the unsm - treatment enhanced the intergranular corrosion in even the heavily sensitized specimen , in addition to the slightly sensitized specimen [\neffect of unsm on the polarization behavior of 316l stainless steel aged at 650 \u00b0c in de -

aged specimen ; ( c ) 5 h - aged specimen ; and ( d ) 48 h - aged specimen .\npitting corrosion initiates by nonmetallic inclusions or second - phase intermetallics in the stainless steel surface microstructure [ 44 ] . stainless steel can be sensitized by aging treatment , and thus chromium carbides and a chromium - depleted zone can be formed near the grain boundaries [ 45 ] ; and in addition , it was recently reported that carbon segregated areas near grain boundaries of even slightly sensitized stainless steel were formed , and this carbon segregation facilitated the intergranular corrosion [ 4 ] .\nshows that the pitting potential was greatly reduced in even the slightly sensitized specimen .\nshows the results of observation of the surface after the anodic polarization test in order to elucidate this corrosion behavior .\nc shows that in the 48 h - aged specimen , the corroded area finally looks like the appearance corroded along grain boundaries .\nsem image after the polarization test in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl : ( a ) 1 h - aged ; ( b ) 5 h - aged ; and ( c ) 48 h - aged .\nshows the epma analysis that was therefore performed in order to compare the corroded appearance to elemental correlation .\nshows the elemental distribution analyzed by epma on the surface of the aged 316l stainless steel after the polarization test in de - aerated 3 . 5 % nacl at 30 \u00b0c . in the case of 1 h and 5 h - aged specimens , carbon was relatively more segregated at the corroded area , and carbon segregation can be definitely confirmed along the grain boundaries of the chromium carbide formed specimen ( 48 h - aged ) . the passivation behavior of the slightly sensitized stainless steel can be affected by carbon segregation , and the segregated carbon induced micro - galvanic corrosion , which initiated pitting and degraded passivation [\n] . after the exposure beyond the critical duration for carbide formation , chromium depletion and carbide formed areas formed , and since these areas are sensitive to pitting initiation , they degraded the passivation .\nelemental distribution analyzed by epma ( electron probe micro analyzer ) on the surface of aged 316l stainless steel after the polarization test in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl : ( a ) 1 h - aged ; ( b ) 5 h - aged ; and ( c ) 48 h - aged .\non the other hand , the unsm - treatment improved the passivation of 1 h and 5 h - aged specimens , but decreased the pitting resistance of the 48 h - aged specimen . wang , et al . [\n] , residual stress in the surface layer with different surface finishes affects the critical current density and the current density for passivation , the factors of which are closely related to the formation and retention of the passivation layer . many researchers [\n] reported that the high mechanical energy imparted by various methods to the steel surface may also induce the diffusion of the alloying elements and therefore can affect the intergranular corrosion resistance of the stainless steels . we already proposed that the unsm treatment improved the intergranular corrosion resistance of the aged stainless steels , and the improvement was due to the reduction of carbon segregation and the grain refinement of the outer surface , including the introduction of compressive residual stress [\nshows the elemental distribution analyzed by epma on the surface of unsm treated 316l stainless steel after the polarization test in de - aerated 3 . 5 % nacl at 30 \u00b0c . it can be confirmed that the unsm - treatment reduced carbon segregation regardless of the aging time . as described above , carbon segregation facilitates micro - galvanic corrosion , and therefore the reduction of carbon segregation by the unsm - treatment should improve the pitting corrosion resistance . in the case of the slightly sensitized specimen , this was true , but the pitting corrosion resistance was decreased in the heavily sensitized specimen in spite of the reduction of carbon segregation by the unsm - treatment . that is , this behavior requires another explanation .\nshows sem images of unsm - treated specimens before / after the anodic polarization test in de - aerated 3 . 5 % nacl at 30 \u00b0c . mechanical flaws by the unsm - treatment can be observed even in the specimen before the anodic polarization test . in particular , in the case of the 48 h - aged specimen , several mechanical flaws were observed ; and after the anodic polarization test , it was confirmed that the pitting corrosion initiated and propagated at the flaws . in other words , it should be noted that while the unsm - treatment can reduce the carbon segregation by aging , it can increase the irregularity of the surface due to mechanical flaws .\nelemental distribution analyzed by epma on the surface of unsm treated 316l stainless steel after the polarization test in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl : ( a ) 1 h - aged ; ( b ) 5 h - aged ; and ( c ) 48 h - aged .\nsem images of unsm - treated specimens before / after the anodic polarization test in de - aerated 30 \u00b0c , 3 . 5 % nacl : ( a ) 1 h - aged ; ( b ) 5 h - aged ; and ( c ) 48 h - aged .\ntherefore , we propose the pitting corrosion model of the stainless steel by unsm - treatment .\nshows the pitting corrosion model of aged 316l stainless steel by the unsm treatment . in the slightly aged specimen , the unsm - treatment refines the grain of the outer surface [\n] and reduces the carbon segregation , and therefore increases the pitting corrosion resistance even though it creates mechanical flaws . on the other hand , in the case of the over - aged specimen , the unsm - treatment refines the grain of the outer surface , and reduces the carbon segregation similar to the slightly aged specimen , but creates mechanical flaws on the surface , and then these flaws act as the initiation sites of pitting corrosion , and finally decrease the pitting corrosion resistance ."]}

[ 15 ]\nthe film was the second in an unofficial trilogy made by the same director and producer and starring robert taylor , coming between ivanhoe ( 1952 ) and the adventures of quentin durward ( 1955 ) . all three were made at mgm ' s british studios at elstree , near london and partly filmed on location . the cast included robert taylor as sir lancelot , ava gardner as queen guinevere , mel ferrer as king arthur , anne crawford as morgan le fay , stanley baker as mordred and felix aylmer as merlin .\nbarber ( wilfrid hyde - white ) shaving french king louis ( robert morley ) , who calls on newly - hired scottish knight robert taylor ( title character ) to guard countess isabelle ( kay kendall ) from unwelcome visitors , in quentin durward , 1955 , from the sir walter scott novel . >\nquentin durward ( 1955 ) was the last in an unofficial trilogy of historical adventures produced by m - g - m ' s pandro s . berman , directed by richard thorpe , and starring robert taylor . ivanhoe ( 1952 ) and knights of the round table ( 1953 , fsmcd vol . 6 , no . 7 ) had been scored by miklos rozsa , but during the middle of 1955 rozsa was occupied with the studio ' s diane ( fsmcd vol . 7 , no . 3 ) , so the new picture was taken on by bronislau kaper .\nsome kind of achievement for me . finally , read\nquentin durward\nby walter scott in original and expand my english vocabulary with about 50 words , that would be useful for reenactment ) . great book , definitely the good read , as it was in my childhood . ps . historical notes and references alongside the text are great too .\nbronislau kaper ' s score for quentin durward is a delightful swashbuckling effort in the best tradition of erich wolfgang korngold ' s ' 30s and ' 40s efforts and the cinemascope - era scores by waxman , rozsa and steiner . the themes range from a lighthearted scottish jig to a yearning love theme , and melancholy strains of unrequited affection\u2014with solidly symphonic action music for the derring - do . the score has long been desired by fans of the genre .\ni have to admit i was a little surprised by how engaging , exciting , and funny this historical novel by sir walter scott was . this novel , written in 1823 , tells the story of quentin durward , a wandering scottish nobleman who goes to france to make his fortune and ends up serving in the scottish guard of the french king , louis xi . quentin is as noble and true and chivalrous as louis is sneaky , cruel , and out for number one , but together they make a pretty good team and a very satisfying story . als\nwritten to introduce children to the works of sir walter scott , both volumes bear the sub - title\nstolen from the treasure chest of the wizard of the north\n. stories include episodes from waverley , guy mannering , rob roy , the antiquary , ivanhoe , the fortunes of nigel , quentin durward & the pirate . \u201c in this simple recounting of adventures there lurks a really high art , and not a little humor . mr . crockett is aiming to bring home to his critical small audience the liveliness , the excitement , the breathless adventuresomeness , of these great novels . he is luring his hearers on to read for them - selves . he tells them enough about the people and the events to make them hurry to the books to fill out details . \u201d \u2014 churchman .\nwalter scott\u2019s novel of 1823 follows a scottish nobleman to 15th century france where he seeks his fortune as a mercenary working for the devious king louis xi . quentin durward believes in chivalry in an age when chivalry is going out of fashion , but sticks to his principles throughout in spite of many obstacles . this is but one example of the various impressively realised characterisations in the novel , against a fast moving action packed story with occasional moments of gutsy violence . the bac\nthe film is part of a thematic series with 1952 ' s ivanhoe and 1955 ' s quentin durward ( which were also produced by mgm and directed by richard thorpe , and also starred robert taylor ) , with a similar chivalric spirit and tone and similarly lavish production values . all three were filmed at mgm ' s british studios at elstree , near london .\nthus , the scott cinema canon , which had been fairly eclectic in the early years of film , soon narrowed to just three principal source works : rob roy , ivanhoe , and quentin durward . the small number of recent scott films had continued this trend : most were made in post - soviet russia , and one , rob roy ( usa , 1995 ) , is only tangentially based on the original novel . [ 13 ] significantly , too , only rob roy had been a favourite with theatre - goers before the advent of cinema : there were some 970 stage adaptations of the novel produced in the century between 1817 and 1917 , nearly four times as many as ivanhoe and quentin durward combined . [ 14 ] so why did one great scotch romance and a couple of minor medieval romances assume such prominence in the cinema ? the following section of this essay will consider some of the surviving film versions of these three novels , with particular attention to cinematic representations of scotland .\nn 1465 , the impecunious scottish knight quentin durward travels to france to determine whether the countess isabelle of marcroy will make a suitable bride for his aged uncle . the marriage has been arranged by the duke of burgundy to from a lasting alliance with scotland . aware that her intended husband is an old man , isabelle takes flight and puts herself under the protection of the king of france , louis xi . quentin pursues her and manages to inveigle his way into the king ' s confidence . fearing that a rift with burgundy will lead to an all - out war that france can ill afford , the king conceives a fiendish plan that will deliver isabelle into the hands of the notorious brigand count william de la marck . . .\nscott\u2019s reinvention of rob roy as a highland robin hood conveniently supplied disney with a link between the jacobite setting of the novel and the more congenial medieval scott of ivanhoe , the talisman , and quentin durward . [ 45 ] conscious of the catastrophe of alexander korda\u2019s bonnie prince charlie in 1948 , hollywood studios were anxious to find ways of exploiting the magnificent scottish scenery and the action , colour , and revelry of scots \u201ctartanry\u201d without having to deal with the dramatically unpromising facts of the failed rebellions of 1715 and 1745 and the integration of scotland into the united kingdom . the highland rogue therefore belongs more compellingly with other chivalric romances coming out of the british - american co - productions of the period , such as another jacobite makeover of 1953 , warners\u2019 film of robert louis stevenson\u2019s the master of ballantrae , in which the presence of errol flynn inevitably calls up robin hood . [ 46 ]\ni read this long ago and liked it very much . the story is about a young archer , quentin durward , who leaves his native scotland to serve in the scottish guard of louis xi of france . as security detail he accompanies the beautiful isabelle de croye of burgundy on a journey to flanders . the lady is promised in marriage to quite a few men within the story : first to an odious nobleman in the burgundy court , then to a bandit , next to the duke of orleans . when she refuses the duke , he promises her to\ni recently watched the hollywood movie version of quentin durward ( in several youtube installments ) , starring robert taylor , kaye kendall , and robert morley ; and i decided to pick up a used hard - bound copy to read in the original literary format . even after having read barely 70 pages of the book , including the 33 - page\nintroduction\n, i was able to affirm that for once hollywood captured the book ' s droll , ironic humor , especially in the on - screen characterization of louis xi ( aka the\nspider kin\ni have to admit i was a little surprised by how engaging , exciting , and funny this historical novel by sir walter scott was . this novel , written in 1823 , tells the story of quentin durward , a wandering scottish nobleman who goes to france to make his fortune and ends up serving in the scottish guard of the french king , louis xi . quentin is as noble and true and chivalrous as louis is sneaky , cruel , and out for number one , but together they make a pretty good team and a very satisfying story . also includes a damsel in distress , some pointedly two - faced religious devotions , and some pretty racist comments about the gypsies .\nthe maid of france : being the story of the life and death of jeanne d ' arc . 1908 .\nthen she made the holy sign of the cross , and the face of the elf grew black , and the light went out of the sky .\nwhen i first read this novel in high school , i really liked it and always thought it was an excellent historical adventure novel ( there is probably a better term for this type of literature ) . after reading another novel about mercenaries recently , i decided to re - read quentin durward just to remind myself of how novels about mercenaries really should be written . well , this experience was pretty interesting . the story is about the french king louis xi as much as it is about the scottish archer , quentin durward who serves the french king . in fact , there is probably more text dedicated to the king and his affairs . this side of the story really slows the flow of the book although shows in detail what kind of monarch and politic louis xi really was - you will be repulsed by his actions and you will admire him a little . it sounds crazy but think about it - how can you admire a story about adventures of a person who kills for money ( mercenary ) ? if you do , why not admire the king who is smart and ruthless at the same time ( or is it the same thing ? ) ? the adventures feel ancient in character and a bit naive ( think knights fighting for their dames ) but it ' s still enjoyable if you manage to sleep through the boring parts ( maybe it ' s just me but this is my review so . . . ) . overall , i found that i only got interested in the story after i ' ve gone though 2 / 3 of the book . and all i could say in the end was ,\nwell , good for him . what do i read next ?\ni read this long ago and liked it very much . the story is about a young archer , quentin durward , who leaves his native scotland to serve in the scottish guard of louis xi of france . as security detail he accompanies the beautiful isabelle de croye of burgundy on a journey to flanders . the lady is promised in marriage to quite a few men within the story : first to an odious nobleman in the burgundy court , then to a bandit , next to the duke of orleans . when she refuses the duke , he promises her to whoever will kill the bandit she was once to marry . quentin , true romance hero that he is , performs this task admirably and thereby gains isabell ' s love and hand in marriage . this was quite long . an enjoyable cloak and dagger novel with lots of historical detail about 15th - century france and scotland .\nmy second favorite of scott ' s work - - - next to ivanhoe . a good action / adventure story set against the interesting backdrop of 1400s france . the conflict between king louis and charles of burgundy was fun for me to read about , but anyone can enjoy characters like lady hamelina and the naive , honest hero , quentin durward himself . the book has more humor than you ' d expect , and that ' s a plus . i recommend this to anyone interested in trying out scott ' s other novels -

war and cold war years encouraged the consolidation of the cultures of the west , and the plots of ivanhoe and quentin durward both \u201cproject \u2026 incipient nation states [ or nato states ? ] , not as culturally unitary but as divided against themselves . \u201d [ 47 ] these plots can be resolved only by symbolic marriages . both stories offer domestic solutions to world - historical problems , therefore , and must have appealed to producers during the baby - boom of the 1950s when the american dream , projected as suburban domesticity and consumer culture , was being sold abroad as the most powerful weapon against communist russia . as critics have shown , too , ivanhoe in particular showed how the camouflage of costume might allow a more critical examination of cold war america . for example , elizabeth taylor\u2019s lead role as rebecca , the able , energetic jewess who falls in love with ivanhoe but must relinquish him in the end to the insipid anglo - saxon rowena , raises issues about the role of women , the prevalence of anti - semitism , and the spectre of mccarthyism in the 1950s .

witted son , prince ricardo . in tales of a fairy court ( 1907 ) , lang chronicles further episodes in the life of prince prigio . in one of the stories , prince prigio travels in time , first into the future of the twentieth century , then back in time to the court of king james vi of scotland . lang ' s tales of troy and greece ( 1907 ) comprises a retelling of homer ' s the iliad and the odyssey as a boy ' s adventure story for children . drawing on his own translations of homer ' s works and his accomplishments as a homeric scholar , lang ' s tales of troy and greece is highly regarded as one of his strongest volumes of stories for children .\n[ 43 ] the highland rogue was also , of course , one of scott\u2019s sources .\nin deserting all the literary traditions of fairyland and going for his inspiration to the border ballads and to the ancient folk beliefs and superstitions , lang was not acting unreasonably or from any spirit of forced innovation : for the fairies of the north are indeed the true fairies , and they were the products of the popular and literary creed of many centuries .\n[ in the following review , the critic comments on the appeal of lang ' s original fairy tales to modern readers , particularly the stories recounted in the gold of fairnilee and the princess nobody . ]\nthe year of lang ' s birth , 1844 , saw perhaps the earliest fusion of grimm and the french fairy court , in a forgotten tale , the hope of the katzekopfs by the reverend francis edward paget , where the new tradition is exemplified very clearly .\nthe movie debut of albert finney , at work in the raleigh . . .\njohnny nut and the golden goose ( from the french of charles deulin ) .\nlang frankly admitted\nthe process of evolution . . . is the mainspring of our system .\n18 the scholarly introduction to this new translation\u2014the first scholarly version of the grimm ' s household tales \u2014was most fortuitous .\nthe vedas do not represent the ordinary conversation of men , in which the process of naming and forgetting names is said to have existed .\nhe learned the tales of death divine and birth , strange loves of hawk and serpent , sky and earth , the marriage and the slaying of the sun ; the shrines of ghosts and beasts he wandered through , and mocked not of their godhead , for he knew behind all creeds the spirit that is one .\n[ 3 ] they are old mortality , the heart of midlothian , rob roy , the bride of lammermoor , a legend of montrose , and redgauntlet . of the two remaining scotch romances , the antiquary was set in scott\u2019s own time , and guy mannering in the days of his youth .\n[ 8 ] the bride of lammermoor ( j . stuart blackton , usa , 1909 ) , the bride of lammermoor ( it , 1910 ) kenilworth ( usa , 1909 ) , lochinvar ( based on marmion , j . searle dawley , usa , 1909 ) , quentin durward ( albert capellani , fr , 1911 ) , rob roy ( arthur vivian , uk , 1911 ) , the lady of the lake ( j . stuart blackton , usa , 1912 ) , guy mannering ( us , 1913 ) , ivanhoe ( herbert brenon , uk , 1913 ) , ivanhoe ( leedham bantock , uk , 1913 ) , rebecca the jewess ( based on ivanhoe , uk , 1913 ) , rob roy ( o . a . c . lund , usa , 1913 ) , a woman\u201ds triumph ( based on the heart of midlothian , j . searle dawley , usa , 1914 ) , the heart of midlothian ( frank wilson , uk , 1914 ) .\namong more literary classes the popular fairy - lore in the middle ages became diluted and changed by the addition of classical and romantic elements . perhaps the best example of this is the middle english poem of\nsir orfeo ,\nwhich tells the story of orpheus and eurydice in a setting of british fairy belief , making persephone queen of that fairyland under the ground to which , in the ballad , the fairy queen leads thomas the rhymer .\nthis is the eternal difficulty of the philological method . how are you to suppose that forgetfulness of the meaning of words so frequently led civilised men to ideas essentially savage ? how are you to be certain that the story was originally told of the god or hero whose name you analyse by the aid of philology ? 11\ni was reading quentin myself at this stage , albeit at home and in secret , firstly because the doctor had forbidden me reading yet again , and secondly because the book was too heavy to drag to school along with all my textbooks . and this coincidence , which then seemed to me to be mysteriously significant , made my heart pound even harder .\nk -

and - pencil illustrations do not reflect the earthy humor of the tale . many of the page - and - a - half spreads are static , and the rosy - cheeked , round - eyed men , women , and children resemble cartoon figures . overall , the soft colors and romanticized landscapes create a saccharine quality that is incompatible with the spirit of the story . those in need of\nthe flying ship\nshould turn to the yellow fairy book .\nthe process of diffusion remains uncertain . much may be due to the identity everywhere of early fancy : something to transmission .\neuterpe : being the second book of the famous history of herodotus , tr . barnaby rich ( editor ) . 1888 .\nthe second grouping , prince ricardo of pantouflia : being the adventures of prince prigio ' s son , offers a different twist . even in pantouflia , parents occasionally err in making life too easy for their offspring . so immersed is ricardo in using magical gifts to solve dilemmas that he neglects skill development and personal talents . rather than tending to his humdrum duties and his geography and mathematics studies . ricardo dashes and darts from one exciting exploit to another until his father decides to teach him a lesson .\njust the top of the\nyankee doodle boy\nnumber from george . . .\nduel to the death : lancelot challenges mordred in a duel to the death to avenge the death of king arthur in the climax .\nbetween 1909 and 1914 , fourteen scott films were made in four different countries ( the uk , usa , france , and italy ) from seven novels , one story , and a poem : still barely one - third of the number of films made from dickens\u2019s writing in the same period . ivanhoe , which almost alone made scott\u2019s name known to later generations of moviegoers , was already the favourite , attracting three film versions . interestingly , the heart of midlothian was made twice in 1914 ( it was never filmed again : see below ) , as were two other novels that would prove appealing to subsequent filmmakers : the bride of lammermoor and rob roy . [ 8 ] by contrast , between 1915 and the end of the silent era in 1930 scott virtually disappeared from the cinema : only five more films were produced , from three novels ( rob roy , the talisman , and the fair maid of perth ) . [ 9 ] thereafter , to the best of my knowledge not a single scott film was made anywhere in the world between 1930 and the revival of interest in chivalric epic in hollywood during the cold war . this spurred a minor scott revival , but only in rob roy and the handful of medieval swashbucklers : ivanhoe , the talisman , and quentin durward . [ 10 ] scott fared rather better on radio and television . between 1940 and 1974 , the bbc made ten radio serials , [ 11 ] and between 1957 and 1998 , fifteen television serials ( of eleven novels ) appeared . [ 12 ]\nby a strange chance mrs molesworth , one of the greatest writers of the\nchild - novel ,\nwas born in 1839 , the year of the publication of holiday house , the earliest real example of that type of story : following on this it is even stranger to find that in 1844 , the year when the hope of the katzekopfs , the first true\nliterary fairy - story\nappeared , was born andrew lang , whose name is more intimately connected with fairies than that of any other englishman since shakespeare .\none of the greatest all time romantic swashbucklers . one of a trio of medieval films robert taylor did , owing little to history but great entertainment none the less .\nthe chronicles of pantouflia combine two books , the story of prince prigio ( 1889 ) and the adventures of his son , prince ricardo ( 1893 ) ; both antedate the blue fairy book of 1899 , the first in andrew lang ' s great spectrum of anthologies of children ' s stories . but they reveal already an imagination steeped in fairy literature , and adding to that tradition with considerable sophistication . the stories repeatedly take their bearings by literary cross - reference . some of these would be appreciated by children : the king of pantouflia is the grandson of cinderella and includes madame la belle au bois - dormant among his ancestors ; prince prigio is given the whole battery of fairy gifts\u2014seven - league boots , flying carpets , wishing caps and so on . on the other hand prince ricardo is saved by a weapon - salve described by sir kenelm digby , and his tale has elements drawn from scott and ariosto as well as the gawain poet and others ; the tale of the yellow dwarf recounted here awaits its proper placement , anthologized in the blue fairy book six years later . pantouflia , we may assume , is not only a country but , as its name suggests , a state of slippered ease , bookish , witty and even cynical in its handling of the stuff of children ' s fiction .\nfinished !

turn is an amazing film . if you liked lucia , you\u2019ll love this . if you like thriller movies , you\u2019ll love it . if you watch the movie for the message it gives , you\u2019ll give it a standing ovation like they did so in the theatre where i watched this movie . however , the real hero and possibly the villain too is not an actor in this film . it is a real entity , captured brilliantly by pawan . it is the double road flyover in bengaluru city : d\nrajinikanth married latha rangachari , whom he met when she interviewed him for her college magazine . he earned the filmfare award for best tamil actor in 1984 for nallavanuku nallavan . he made an appearance in the american film bloodstone , playing the role of an indian taxi driver .\nin 2005 , rajinikanth signed up for chandramukhi , which fared well at the box office and set the record for the longest - running tamil movie . rajinikanth earned rs 26 crore for his role in sivaji ( 2007 ) making him the second - highest - paid actor in india after jackie chan . rajinikanth partnered with director shankar for the sci - fi film enthiran ( 2010 ) , where he played the dual role of a scientist and a robot , chitti ; this went onto become the second - highest grossing indian film of its time .\nwith rajinikanth\u2019s upcoming film kabali \u2019s teaser shattering all youtube records set by indian movies and garnering a critical reception from audiences , the movie , slated for release this summer , can expect a huge turnout and can hopefully satiate the audiences\u2019 expectations of a blockbuster from the superstar again .\ni am very pleased to say that lately kannada film industry has been giving very good movies and u - turn is one of those . lucia director pawan kumar has taken a very simple , yet socially very important concept , given it a gripping screenplay and directed very beautifully .\nreason : on one side of the screen the phrases on love and life in english with discomforting fonts rarely stops flowing , and at the bottom is the sub - title in english . if that is not enough , the protagonists is half the time busy expressing his philosophy and the other portion is dedicated to the heroine shown with her hair flying , and close up shots of her eye . well , the man who was at least never criticised for selection of actress , has probably failed for the first time . the actress apoorva is not what we all have been seeing in ravichandran ' s film and the other disheartening fact is that the debutant can hardly act .\nperformances in the film are pretty decent , many of them appearing first time on the screen , still they manage to keep the audience engaged without an iota of boredom . the characters are well portrayed but the plot gets diluted when the real face behind the mystery comes into play .\nfilm got negative reviews from critics . renuka vyavahare of the times of india gave the movie 2 out of 5 stars stating that ,\nthe crime drama fails to offer an insight to haseena ' s life\n. [ 16 ] syed firdaus ashraf from urltoken gave the movie 2 . 0 / 5 stars stating that ,\nshraddha kapoor tries hard to rescue the film . shraddha kapoor deglamorizes herself to get into the character and her sincerity as an actress reflects throughout the movie . it has all the ingredients . . . to make it a blockbuster . [ 17 ]\non the face of it you might easily say that there\u2019s nothing new to kapoor & sons . isn\u2019t it the usual , dysfunctional family drama we have seen in countless hollywood films ? but not for a minute does the film feel stale . batra gives a refreshing new voice to an old , tried and tested trope .\napoorva or apurva is the common english spelling of two related indian given names : the feminine \u0905\u092a\u0942\u0930\u094d\u0935\u093e and the masculine \u0905\u092a\u0942\u0930\u094d\u0935 . the masculine name is often spelled apurv or apoorv , as in many modern indo - aryan languages it is pronounced without the vowel at the end , for example in hindi : . in sanskrit and are respectively the masculine and feminine forms of the adjective meaning ' unprecedented ' , ' new ' , ' extraordinary ' .\nand to ensure that the narration of the other story is as strong its counterpart inside , we needed a good voice , and who better to have onboard for that than sudeep ? his bass voice is well - suited to the film and he agreed to be a part of it without asking any questions about it .\nin a kalyan jewellers store , the bachchans are busy trying to find jewellery for their grand daughter . jaya rules out a diamond set for the reception as she thinks a large one wouldn ' t be available at their budget . amidst the banter , amitabh finds a apoorva set and proudly shows off the bride - to - be wearing it . he reveals that it is priced within their budget , at a range of rs 5 to 10 lakh .\njust imitate whatever balachander is doing . what is the relationship between him and me ) sums up the theme of the film . according to naman ramachandran , the character of pandiyan is not entirely negative . pandiyan does not appear as a villain ; in fact , he comes across as a saint . pandiyan commits no villainous act .\nin 2002 , he did a day - long fast to protest the karnataka government\u2019s decision not to release water from the river kaveri into tamil nadu . also in 2008 , he participated in a day - long fast with other tamil film personalities , demanding that the sri lankan government must end to civil war and give sri lankan tamils their rights .\nspeaking at the time , she said : \u201cthey only told me about it before we had to film the scene and i was so angry . i should have called my agent or had my lawyer come to the set because you can\u2019t force someone to do something that isn\u2019t in the script but at the time , i didn\u2019t know that . \u201d\nwhile impressing audiences with his witty humour and unique style , rajinikanth won many accolades along the way . during a period when most directors were ready to cast him as the hero of their film , rajinikanth abruptly chose to quit acting . this sent shockwaves through the entire industry . however , balachander and other close friends convinced him to return to cinema .\nin 2000 , rajinikanth was awarded the padma bhushan by the government of india , in recognition of his achievements in cinema . rajinikanth\u2019s first film to release in the new millennium was baba ( 2002 ) . he wrote the screenplay himself , but the movie failed to meet box office expectations and was a failure . rajinikanth repaid the losses faced by the distributors himself .\napoorva is supposed to be a love story between an older man and a younger woman , in this case 61 and 19 respectively ( the filmmaker even goes to the extent of calling it \u2018a 1961 love story\u2019 ) . the premise of this supposed story is not new at all for we have seen it in films such as ram gopal varma\u2019s nishabd and anant balani\u2019s joggers park . so , when it finally began , one was curious to see how ravichandran would tell or as he mentions in the opening credits , \u2018design\u2019 this story .\nbollywood actress alia bhatt was born on 15 march 1993 , she is the daughter of filmmaker mahesh bhatt and actress soni razdan . after making her acting debut as a child artist in the 1999 thriller sangharsh , alia played her first leading role in karan johar\u2019s romantic drama student of the year ( 2012 ) , which earned her a nomination for the film fare award for best female debut .\nlast tango in paris tells the story of a man who enters into an anonymous affair after his wife takes her own life . it shocked audiences on its release in the early 1970s due to its graphic depictions of sex and rape , and remains controversial today . long after the film was made many still speculated that the sex scenes were real but schneider later confirmed this was not the case .\nthe film became noted for being the onscreen debut of rajinikanth , who went on to become one of tamil cinema ' s most successful actors . during his stay at the film chamber institute in chennai , rajinikanth , then known by his real name , shivaji rao gaekwad , was performing in a stage play and attracted the attention of balachander . at the auditions , gaekwad imitated sivaji ganesan to prove his mettle to balachander , but balachander wanted gaekwad to have an identity of his own and to perform without imitating the mannerisms of another person . two days later , when gaekwad was called again for a second audition , he took a cigar in his hand and threw it stylishly into his mouth , which impressed balachander as he had not seen such unique mannerisms in any other actor that he came across since then .\nno songs but the background score of poornachandra tejaswi is excellent . it is definitely the best kannada movie of this year and just shows how well kannada film industry is progressing . last year , we had some outstanding films like rangitaranga , aatagara , kendasampige , and uppi 2 . this year , we have had thithi and now u - turn . godhi banna saadharana maykattu also looks promising and i\u2019m looking forward to it .\nwhen the matter was taken to the madras high court , it did not accept dasan ' s contention for the script , hence handing the rights to balachander . duraisamy produced the film under their production banner , kalakendra films . b . lokanath was chosen as the cinematographer and n . kittu as the editor , while ramasamy was chosen as the art director . recalling her experience in an interview with shobha warrier of rediff in may 2 .\n\u2022 in 2014 , rajinikanth got the stay from the madras high court to stop the release of bollywood film ' main hoon rajinikanth . ' later , the name of the film was changed to ' main hoon part - time killer . ' \u2022 in 2015 , the madras high court issued a notice to rajinikanth , on a plea by a financier to take action against the director , kasthuri raja , father of the dhanush . the financier also claimed that he gave money to kasthuri raja after he had used rajinikanth ' s name . he wanted rajinikanth to ' initiate action against his relative for misusing his name without his consent . ' \u2022 in 2017 , lyca productions announced that rajinikanth will unveil a housing scheme by its charity wing ' gnanam foundation ' for displaced tamils in jaffna , sri lanka . after this announcement , the pro - tamil protested against rajinikanth ' s visit .\nthe trouble with \u2018whodunit\u2019 mysteries is that they build up to a reveal which may not meet viewer expectations . \u2018that\u2019s it ? \u2019 could be our reaction to the alleged twists . the unconvincing and stilted disclosure or answer drastically reduces the possibility of repeat viewings . kannada filmmaker pawan kumar\u2019s second feature film u - turn suffers from a similar problem . he devises a good , puzzling journey , only to flood it with twists that are uninteresting and generic .\nthe film moves at quite a brisk pace in the first half , where the masterful director pavan kumar of lucia fame unravels the plot in an intriguing manner . there are no unwanted scenes or songs , and the screenplay is gripping and taut . shraddha srinath and roger narayan ( remember hola venky ! ) have pulled off marvelous performances and will keep you on the edge of your seats . the wonderful bgm by poornachandra tejasvi complements the narrative exceptionally well .\nvarun dhawan ( born 24 april 1987 ) is an indian actor who appears in hindi films . varun dhawan height is 5 feet 9 inches ( 1 . 73 metres ) . he is the son of film director david dhawan . varun dhawan studied business management from the nottingham trent university after which he worked as an assistant director to karan johar for 2010 released drama movie my name is khan . dhawan made his acting debut with johar\u2019s 2012 romantic comedy student of the year .\nthe first person to discover his inherent flair for acting was k . balachander , an indian director working primarily in the tamil industry . however , balachander wasn\u2019t impressed with rajinikanth\u2019s acting prowess right away . at their first meeting , when rajinikanth auditioned , he delivered some of sivaji ganesan\u2019s dialogues and copied his mannerisms . unfortunately , balachander rejected him and advised him to develop a style of his own and to learn tamil . the next time they met , balachander , convinced of rajinikanth\u2019s acting skills , gave him a small role in his upcoming film .\nback to apoorva , it all starts with the typical one man show , trying to connect with the audience in his own manner . as usual , after yet another innovative show of title cards , a literal never saga of philosophy on love and life starts unfolding . a short and simple love story of a 61 year old man and a 19 year old girl is the crux , to which he knots it with a terrorist angle . however , it is not so simple as it sounds , or even to watch it . it literally requires a brain with high end eyes and a fair bit of english knowledge . his huge fan base , who only knows the language of love and who cannot follow english , are sure for a huge disappointment .\nthough he thought of completing the film early , it took two and half years to finish ! it is a re - recording that consumed most of the time , he points out . similarly , when his friends approved the seventh version of the script , he kept on revising it , before \u201cokaying\u201d the 19th draft . attributing the delay to his intention to draw the audience in to the theatre , he says , \u201ci did not want to repeat the mistake committed during release of ekangi , which was understood by the audience after several shows . \u201d\ncontents [ hide ] 1 cast 2 production 2 . 1 filming 3 soundtrack 3 . 1 track listing 4 references 5 external links cast [ edit ] ajay devgan sayesha saigal erika kaar abigail eames [ 4 ] vir das [ 5 ] girish karnad saurabh shukla [ 6 ] bijou thaangjam [ 7 ] production [ edit ] filming [ edit ] the shooting of the film started in november 2014 , the major part of movie shot in mussoorie , .

[ 9 ] [ 10 ] [ 11 ] [ 12 ]\nthe music of the film is composed by sachin\u2013jigar while the lyrics have been penned by priya saraiya , vayu and kirthi shetty . its first song of the film titled as\ntere bina\nsung by arijit singh and priya saraiya was released on 29 august 2017 . the soundtrack was released on 8 september 2017 . the first song of the movie ,\ntere bina\nwas launched on 29 august 2017 and audio and lyrical version of the song were released on 07 september 2017 and 10 september 2017 respectively . the second song of the movie ,\nbantai\nwas launched on 08 september 2017 and its lyrical version was released on 14 september 2017 . the third song of the movie ,\npiya aa\nwas launched on 15 september 2017 and its audio and lyrical version was released on 19 september 2017 and 29 september 2017 respectively . the soundtrack album was released under the banner of saregama music . haseena parkar music got mixed reviews from the critics . news18 india and musicaloud gave the music 3 out of 5 stars and koimoi gave the music 2 out of 5 stars . however , bollywood hungama gave the music 1 . 5 out of 5 stars .\nkapoor and shah bicker brilliantly and with great dignity at that . khan is expectedly charming and delightfully at ease with his personable self . he seems to just inhabit his scenes than acting them out . even though it\u2019s a tad hard to imagine malhotra as a budding novelist he holds his own with his solid presence and vulnerable glances . it\u2019s aalia bhatt who seems to be playing her usual hyper , ditzy , little sunshine girl act yet again . what disappointed me most was rishi kapoor with the terrible prosthetics ( why couldn\u2019t another older actor have been cast in the role ) and loud presence , perhaps in tune with his character but totally out of sync with the rest of the mellow , subtle tenor of the film .\nrajinikanth , as we know him now , was born on 12 december 1950 , in a marathi family , the youngest of four siblings . named after marathi king chhatrapthi shivaji , rajinikanth had to take on odd jobs like carpentry and as a coolie , from an early age , to ensure his family could afford three meals a day . while supporting his family , rajinikanth nurtured his acting talent by participating in several school plays . one notable role he played was that of duryodhana in kurukshetra . later , when he was working as a bus conductor for the bangalore transport service ( bts ) , he felt drawn to the stage again and began acting in kannada plays . rajinikanth joined the madras film institute in 1973 to pursue a diploma in acting .\nthe busy screenplay reminds one a lot of piku : the frenzied frames , the hyper characters , the constant motion in the sequences . like piku it is yet another film that has been brilliantly crafted and mapped out in terms of the writing , how the scenes slowly get built up towards a crescendo . it\u2019s an onion peel narrative in which the relationships , revelations , secrets and lies , unfinished confidences , unresolved issues , betrayals and conflicts are unspooled layer by layer . little hints are thrown here and there , that eventually accumulate to lead on to outbursts . the simple , conversational exchanges and the repartee are the other high points as is the acting : how the actors play off against each other with pitch perfect timing . there is something very finely calibrated and nicely measured about the entire package that is kapoor & sons . what\u2019s more it\u2019s delightfully engaging despite being rooted in the everyday , the banal and the seemingly trite . even fixing a fuse with a wooden stick becomes a delightful scene in batra\u2019s hands .\narguments , conflicts and clashes normally don\u2019t make for a pleasant viewing . shakun batra\u2019s kapoor & sons , however , keeps you riveted as you move from one family fight to another\u2014from the dining table to the kitchen to the bathroom , the lawn and the party , from the husband - wife to the brothers . at times two brawls run parallel , or they spark off each other . even at its most ugly and shrill the film stays so real and believable that what you see on screen feels like your very own family war zone , a bitter - sweet slice of your own life . even as a silent spectator you get planted in the action and become a participant . so at one level there is the sense of indulgence and affection towards the characters who could well have been your own granddad , father , mother , uncle or brother , at another it is also a curiously therapeutic experience where you step out of the theatre having come to terms with at least a few of your own demons , if not entirely exorcised all the ghosts .\nhtml public\n- / / w3c / / dtd html 4 . 01 / / en\nurltoken\nwe have sent you a verification email . to verify , just follow the link in the message\nwhen it comes to love , there are no questions or reasons . that is the rule of love .\netimes is an entertainment , tv & lifestyle industry ' s promotional website and carries advertorials and native advertising .\ncopyright \u00a9 2018 bennett , coleman & co . ltd . all rights reserved .\nsome parts of this page won ' t work property . please reload or try later .\nthe\nmost anticipated indian movies and shows\nwidget tracks the real -

threatening medical situation in the middle of the film , introducing soap opera atmosphere to an otherwise hardened feature . miike shows difficulty managing the speeds of drama , which ends up destroying the natural pace of the picture .\ncrows zeros\nhas a tendency to be all over the place with its characterizations , suffocating what appear to be sincere asides with troubled personalities .\nthe many characters and subplots , including genji\u2019s tempestuous romance with a punk -

free approach in the director\u2019s chair often results in sleek , idiosyncratic products which epitomize the concept of style over substance . however , in crows zero 2 , there isn\u2019t much originality past the manga setting and its over -

ridden suzuran all - boys high school with one goal in mind : unite the school ' s many , warring gangs under one banner , and prove to his father that he can handle the family business . unfortunately , he has some competition in the form of serizawa tamao , a gang leader also known as\nking of the beasts .\n~ cammila albertson , rovi\nin the sequel , \u201ccrows zero ii , \u201d again directed by miike , the boys from suzuran are back , but this time they have a new rival , the white -

cut without losing a sense of what is happening .\ni must admit , being american and from massachusetts of all places , i didn ' t get to catch wind of the\ncrows\nmythology until i was walking around one of the local malls and saw the dvd on the rack . something about how oguri and yamada , just stood out and i dropped the twenty bucks , cuz hey , i ' d spent twenty dollars on far worse things . so i take this dvd home , pop it in and now nothing else i own really matters . i ' v even been able to master the diologue in the movie in both english and japanese , lol . i am anxiously awaited crows zero 2 , so much so that i fear i may have to pull a takiya and start kicking the crap out of random ppl in the halls of my school . god i love japan .\nurltoken crows zero -

range encounter on that day . all informed crows remained informed , and could therefore act as potential spreaders , for the rest of the day . at the end of the day , informed crows were listed . in subsequent runs , each crow in turn was chosen as the \u2018seed ' for the daily information flow , which again could only occur during the observed encounters between crows on the chosen day . to measure simulated information spread during a day , we counted the number of seeds from which each crow could have received information ( that is , its \u2018indomain ' ) , which gives similar counts to the \u2018outdomain ' , the number of crows ultimately informed by each seed . as information transfer was modelled stochastically ( see methods ) , we repeated the simulation 1 , 000 times for each seed on each day .\ncrows zero is a manga adaptation about factions of students fighting for control of a japanese high school . not exactly a new idea , as every other anime and manga is about that very subject . but that ' s not what made crows so uninteresting to me , i ' ve previously enjoyed many movies and shows with similar plots . my issues with the movie were that i never felt any connection to the characters , and couldn ' t care less about what happened to them . add that to the unremarkable fight scenes , and you ' ve got a recipe for\nmeh\n. i did appreciate the sporadic humor , but that quickly ( and unfortunately ) faded away as the movie progressed . die - hard fans of the manga may want to check this out , but i can ' t recommend that anyone else go out of their way to see it . if you want to see high school students beating each other to a pulp , there are much better ( and more exciting ) options .\nso when outsiders complain of a toxic culture in video gaming , movie or comic book fandom , i agree , but not because of the usual suspects . i think of the zero - sum mentality that makes everything in the subject into a horse race . hell , we ran a recap of a single episode of the walking dead today that ended with a winners and losers roundup , after all .\n) is the average , over all possible crow dyads , of the daily duration of encounters , computed as the average of the off - diagonal elements of d . encounter durations among crows in the southern community were substantially longer than in the northern one on average ; therefore , for the purposes of visualization (\ncrows zero\nis actually a prequel to takahashi ' s original work , with the production looking to create an origin story for the misfits before their adventures take to the page . keeping with the insider feel of the production , miike ( who ' s worked in the field before , most notably with 2001 ' s\nichi the killer\n) and screenwriter shogo muto build an immediate intimacy with the characters , casually establishing these corrosive personalities in the scattered opening act of the movie . to those unsure of the dance steps ,\ncrows zero\nisn ' t impossible to follow , but it takes a certain frequency of fandom to correctly tune in to the double - crosses , plans of revenge , and haunted interpersonal relationships that make up the majority of the picture . miike keeps the effort clouded with hazy backstories and intentions , forming a bizarre mix of hostility , slapstick comedy , and melodrama - - a nuanced brew created primarily for those who ' ve already developed a taste for the material and the director . simplicity isn ' t essential when approaching this community of gangsters and hallway bruisers , but there ' s no entry point for the casual viewer , rendering the film specialized product for a specialized audience . while there ' s nothing inherently wrong with that approach , it dilutes the fun for those on the other side of the fence wishing they could join the wild party miike is throwing with his gifted ensemble ."]}

of - its - kind initiative , i agreed . the journey of bringing dhruva to life in hindi has been as exciting and exhilarating as portraying any of my characters on the big screen .\nin a candid interview to mirror last week , ace tamil film - maker gautham menon said his ambitious flick dhruva natchathiram starring suriya might not happen at all . looks like the director , who is not on talking terms with the actor , has moved on and has offered the flick now to vikram , who has bounced back with shankar ' s blockbuster i .\nyes , it is true that gautham is in discussion with vikram to revive dhruva natchathiram . the director has already narrated the script to vikram and he has liked it . it may need a bit of fine - tuning though . if everything works out well , the movie may go on floors later this year ,\na highly placed source privy to the development told mirror .\ngautham ' s yennai arindhaal has raked in good collections and is on its way to become a blockbuster . similarly , vikram\u2019s i too made good collections at the box office . if dhruva natchathiram materialises , it will be a big - budget movie and our sources indicate that gautham is looking for a producer , who understands the demands of such a project . at present , he is shooting his new flick with simbu .\ndhruva natchathiram teaser was released on jan 14 , 2017 . teaser was 2 - minute 38 - second clip follows the story of john played by vikram , an undercover agent based in new york . he and his team are involved in a secret operation that is headed by a man named mr k . john and his team spring into action when the bad guys catch hold of mr k , leaving them in the dark .\ndhruva was born a son of the king utt\u0101nap\u0101da ( the son of svayambhuva manu ) and his wife suniti ( or sunrita , the daughter of dharma ) . the king also had another son uttama , born to his second queen suruchi , who was the preferred object of his affection . once , when dhruva was a child of five years of age , he was sitting on his father ' s lap at the king ' s throne . suruchi , who was jealous of the older son from the first wife ( since he - dhruv - would be heir to throne , and not suruchi ' s son ) , forcefully removed dhruv from his father ' s lap . when dhruv protested and asked if he could not be allowed to sit on his father ' s lap , suruchi berated him saying , ' only god can allow you that privilege . go ask him . '\ndhruva is an upcoming action thriller film directed by surender reddy and produced by allu aravind under his banner geetha arts . it features ram charan , rakul preet singh and aravind swamy . it is an official remake of the tamil film thani oruvan ( 2015 ) . the film will feature music by hiphop tamizha , who composed for the tamil original . and cinematography is handled by p . s . vinod . the film was launched on 18 february 2016 and principal photography commenced on 22 february 2016 . the film , initially set for release on 7 october , is scheduled for a worldwide release on 2 december 2016 .\nthe shelving of dhruva natchathiram resulted in an ugly spat between suriya and gautham with the former accusing the latter of delaying the film . apparently , suriya asked for a few changes in the script - - which gautham was not keen to make - - and the delay on part of the director prompted him to walk out of the project . the two , who together have delivered some of the finest films ( like kakkaa kakka and varanam aayiram ) , are unlikely to work together in any project as confided by gautham in his interview to mirror on february 18 . vikram and gautham are raring to go with both of them tasting success with their independent previous ventures .\ni did not watch thani oruvan before dhruva . so mine is an open review ! i give my review only to movies i really loved watching . i don ' t want to waste time to show hatred . talking about dhruva , this movie had impressed me so much that nothing comes close to this in 2016 . the script was excellent and far better than any routine stupid drama movies we see these days . technical brilliance must be appreciated . even though its a remake , the director and actors took it as a challenge and made it a visual feast to the audience . if you didn ' t know the script before - hand , then the tension that was carried out will make you enjoy the thrill you face . so i recommend the people who have not seen tamil version to go to this movie and you will experience great joy . even if you have seen tamil version , this movie is so good to watch & shows its technical superiority . what ' s for the cine goers ( physical & technical aspects ) : ram charan - excellent physique ( he really worked out ) , great acting ( better than his previous films ) , looked extremely stylish rakul preet - ravishing body ( exclusively hot in songs ) & good acting ( the mirror scene - audience really enjoyed the love expression ) director surrender reddy - improved his directional style . i liked racegurram but this one was even better in terms of screenplay & cinematography . aravind swamy - incredible and he looked scary with decent looks . great acting as well . others - navdeep did a great job and other artists did very well in their roles . what not to expect : not a lot of comedy but there are few jokes and the thrill you face makes you forget about the comedy . so don ' t worry about it . overall : the best movie of this year in telugu ! go for it . demonetization had shown some its effect on the collection otherwise it would have already broken many records considering the strength that the movie has !\ntaking a bit of a ( forced ) break from movie watching right now ! will get back to regularly scheduled programming in a couple of months . the last ones i saw both sucked ( amazing spiderman and baby driver ) . fidaa was overrated af ( ass -

going brahmin girl , bhuvana and they get engaged . bhuvana ' s father , is a straightforward government officer who never got bribe and leads a noble life . saamy and bhuvana meet each other when saamy goes in search of a home for rent to bhuvana ' s home . bhuvana misinterprets saamy and paramasivam as thieves and locks them in a room .\nif u like pls subscribe gautham vasudev menon ( born 25 february 1973 ) , more commonly known as gautham menon , is an indian film director and producer , who predominantly works in tamil cinema . many of his films have been critically acclaimed , most notably his semi -

canon .\nthe courtroom scenes , intended as the climax of the film , must be seen to be believed . the fate of the gere character swings back and forth , complicated because he would rather be convicted of a crime in his new identity than found innocent in his old one . the truth is manifestly clear to everyone in the courtroom , and the judge ( james earl jones ) should declare a mistrial instead of allowing the plot to creak to its melodramatic conclusion .\nanother historical inaccuracy in the film concerns its portrayal of the leader of the unamir mission . in hotel rwanda , he is colonel oliver , a fictional character based on lieutenant general romeo dallaire . to see dallaire ' s version of events as well as his struggle and work after the genocide , we suggest reading shake hands with the devil or watching the documentary based off the book and his experiences .\n1 . at the beginning of the film , paul places far greater value on protecting his family than protecting his neighbors . but as the film progresses his sense of obligation to his neighbors and his countrymen deepens . indeed , rather than abandon the refugees he is sheltering , he sends his family to safety while he stays behind . is his decision the morally right one ? in making decisions , how much weight should one give to the welfare of one ' s family compared to the welfare of one ' s neighbors ? how much weight should governments give to the welfare of foreign peoples compared to that of their own citizens ?\n4 . the film shows that there was a close relationship between the french and hutu governments , even while the killings were going on . on the tenth anniversary of the genocide , rwanda ' s president accused the french of consciously training and arming the hutus , knowing that they would massacre tutsis . the french deny this , yet it is indisputable that france was the rwandan government ' s number - one supplier of weapons . does this fact alone make france more culpable for the genocide than the rest of the international community ? how should responsibility be allocated for what happened , both inside and outside rwanda ?\nkids all over the world and all through time want to rebel . peter muller ( robert sean leonard ) and thomas berger ( christian bale ) are two such young men whose rebellion against the conformity of nazi germany took the form of a love of american swing music , british fashion , and harlem slang . but when an innocent prank forces peter into the hitler youth , their friendship and their loyalties are put to the test against the seductive power of nazism .\nin nazi germany , the youth of the nation were pressed into joining the pro -

hour - long compilation of thousands of film and tv clips , will offer remembrances of hollywood matinees past . his mash - up , sampled from across all film and tv genres , and spanning many cultures and eras , consists almost entirely of images and dialogue that depict or allude to the passage of time : close - ups of wristwatches , dramatic shots of big ben , pans of clock faces in grand central station , images of train timetables and airline departure schedules , and countless sequences of people waiting around or rushing off to fateful rendezvous .\nrunning gag : throughout most of the film , han keeps demanding that frank return his private plane after he steals it .\nhe showed me some \u201cdrafts . \u201d putting on black spectacles , he loaded final cut pro . film clips were\nan assemblage of time -

( notice how this short circuiting takes place while you\u2019re slowly synching up your internal clock with the onscreen clock . )\nclock time is intrinsically associated with labour , work time . this is steven shaviro speaking about tehching hsieh \u2018s one -

serious sci - fi is much closer in spirit to the film 2010 , an oddly endearing bad sequel which tries hard to crush everything interesting about 2001 with retroactive coherence . 2010 explains , in numbing detail , why hal went crazy \u2014 it wasn\u2019t his fault , and the once - mad computer nobly sacrifices itself to save humanity . literally , all humanity : by the end of 2010 , the u . s . and the ussr are at a state of high tension , and the threat of nuclear war looms large . the monoliths , previously an unknowable outside force , reveal themselves as helpful parental figures . they transform jupiter into a star , which makes the moon europa into a new vibrant planet . back home on earth , the americans and the soviets see two suns in the sky \u2013 and declare general peace .\n, artistic director of pages unbound , film critic for classical 96 . 3 fm and an adjunct professor at ryerson university .\nmarclay and his team cleverly appropriate the working methods of post -

renowned sound and video artist christian marclay . the work is an ode to time and cinema , and is comprised of thousands of fragments from a vast range of films that create a 24 - hour , looped , single - channel video . marclay compiled thousands of film clips of wristwatches , clock towers , sundials , alarm clocks , and countdowns , each of which illustrate every minute in a 24 - hour period .\nit\u2019s obvious , of course , where this film is going , but the unpromising - looking vehicle proved an unexpected pleasure to travel in .\nusually , when a movie\u2019s good enough , the audience loses track of the time . the clock invites viewers to zone out , but constantly reminds them exactly what time it is . drowning in the current of scenes and events , it\u2019s easy to forget about many things , but time is not one of them . \u201c the clock really is a clock , \u201d breitweiser , the curator , told me . \u201ceveryone is watching the time go by . \u201d\nin the film , cobb pulled a\nmr . charles\non fischer due to the time constraints . what exactly is\nmr . charles\n?\nthis summer the city that never sleeps will have another glimpse of an artwork that doesn\u2019t relent much either : \u201cthe clock , \u201d a spellbinding , time -

hour - long meditation on the nature and artifice of time ,\nthe clock\nconsists of thousands of film ( and to a lesser degree , television ) clips that feature clocks , watches and other timepieces , edited together so that the time you see on screen reflects the current time .\nbeginning december 21 , the museum will provide updates on visiting the clock , including live updates on the queue , via urltoken and moma\u2019s twitter account , @ museummodernart .\nlead corporate support for christian marclay : the clock is provided by the charles schwab corporation . additional support for the exhibition is provided by lionel conacher and joan dea .\nbut individual donors also stepped forward to fund particular artworks that moved them . with marclay ' s \u201cthe clock , \u201d hollywood film producer and new york giants chairman steve tisch , who became a lacma trustee last year , pledged the $ 467 , 500 needed to buy the work before voting began .\n' the clock ' is at the power plant in toronto until november 25 , and at moma , new york , from december 21 until january 21 .\nprecision f - strike : cooper gets one towards the end , especially noticeable as there honestly isn ' t much swearing in the film up until that point .\nthe film on the waterfront ( 1954 ) was partially intended as director elia kazan and writer budd schulberg ' s justification for cooperating with huac . the film ' s hero , played by marlon brando , wrestles with the question of whether to tell the police the names of the criminals operating on the docks , eventually determining that it would be immoral not to do so .\nthe black hole ' s complex appearance in the film is due to the image of the accretion disc being warped by gravitational lensing into two images : one looping over the black hole and the other under it .\nit never really did , although the film ' s cult status has arguably grown in the last 10 years : as he has become more elusive , so forsyth ' s legend has fortified . there was a palpable thrill in the air when the film ' s leads \u2013 sinclair , grogan , robert buchanan and dee hepburn \u2013 posed for photographs at the glasgow film theatre on sunday , together again for the first time since they made the film . but there was also something bittersweet about watching this frozen elegy for youthful innocence and optimism in a room with its now forty - something stars , a heart - jolting reminder that even daft , dreamy wee boys who have to be home by 11 o ' clock grow into older , wiser , more melancholy men .\nthus film and television history is co - opted into a promiscuously goofy hellzapoppin\u2019 - esque collage . but the clock is also a film of considerable philosophical density . it invites us to examine the way time \u2013 or the effect of time \u2013 is created and structured in film . we become aware of different intensities of film time . there are moments of heightened tension ( \u2018hot\u2019 time , you might say ) in which events happen , or are keenly anticipated : notably the run - up to midday , a moment awaited in the clock by a heteroclite mob including moritz bleibtreu , gene hackman and , of course , gary cooper in high noon . then there are the slow , seemingly vacant moments \u2013 \u2018cool\u2019 time \u2013 in which characters lounge around or emerge from late slumber ( 3pm , we learn , is a prime waking hour for artists and drunks ) . we too become acutely aware of time in the outside world ; emerging from the clock , you can expect your sense of the passing minutes to be curiously heightened for a good hour or so .\nsanjay suri served as a jury member at mami festival , 2012 ( mumbai academy of moving images ) and as muhr arab feature jury at the ( diff ) dubai international film festival , 2013 . onir served as a jury member for selection of india\u2019s entry for foreign film category at the oscars .\nwhen he finally saw the finished product at the 1981 london film festival , however , sinclair was\nmortified\n. he thought he looked terrible and gangly ( it suddenly dawned on him why forsyth had\nmade me exaggerate all those stretches and lunges when he was filming me exercising\n) , and he feared his performance\nruined the film\n. grogan was a little more level - headed , recognising the film ' s charms , and its\nsmart , progressive view of a girl ' s world\n. but even after the film was greeted rapturously , all involved thought the fuss would soon die down .\n17 ) the production costs came in at $ 2 , 777 , 000 \u2013 a vast sum for the time . on initial release , the film only earned $ 3m .\nthere is still a process of editing involved \u2013 many of the film clips are leftovers from the gargantuan catalogue that he and his assistants formed whilst working on the clock . it begins with a silent loop showing a disembodied hand , index finger tapping the velvet pile of a curtain , over and over . this is typical marclay \u2013 his eye for banal visual oddities was the making of the clock , and indeed all his other video works , which are photographic in a way .\nincredibly obvious bomb : marvin drives the secret service in the direction he wants by charging towards them while strapped with dynamite and a ridiculously large micky mouse clock .\nrt @ cairoscene : our resident film critic and cinephile @ waelkhairy88 gives his # oscar2016 predictions . brace yourself leo . urltoken 2 years ago\nbut that interpretation is only obvious if you know the film ' s background , and even then it ' s not inescapable . none of the contemporary reviews i can find describe the film as having any political component at all . ( here is the new york times review , which does allude to the question of whom to credit for the film ' s excellence ; here is variety ' s review . ) in the book showdown at high noon : witch - hunts , critics , and the end of the western , jeremy byman writes :\nmany non - astronomers also engaged with astronomy during the international year of astronomy 2009 ( iya2009 ) , the largest education and public outreach event in science . the iya2009 reached upwards of eight hundred million people , through thousands of activities , in more than 148 countries ( iau , 2010 ) .\nsome ten thousand clips were collected for marclay\u2019s video . \u201cputting the clips back into real time , \u201d he said , exposed \u201chow film is constructed . \u201d\nmarclay\u2019s monstrous creation needed a title . he thought of a few of his usual puns : \u201ctime piece , \u201d \u201cclock work . \u201d then he and burnett discussed the matter , and decided that the work was too grand to be trivialized with wordplay . better , marclay decided , to call it \u201cthe clock . \u201d\nthis precision yields several extraordinary effects , some of which may be fully evident only to a hypothetical viewer watching the film in its 24 - hour entirety . ( there have been 24 - hour screenings , but to marclay\u2019s knowledge , the longest stint by any viewer has been eight hours . ) one effect is a strangely addictive , mesmeric quality ; the first time i visited the clock , two hours slipped by like a breath . as happens when you watch any involving film , you lose your immediate sense of duration , and yet \u2013 here\u2019s the wonderful paradox \u2013 the clock constantly reminds you of the exact time . your watching time is metered by the piece itself .\none of the visual pleasures of the clock is that marclay and his team took a euro - centric approach to their film materials . while there are plenty of clips with bette davis and other hollywood notables , the viewer is offered a pleasing variety of films from germany and france\u2014with no subtitles ! \u2014and england . we\u2019re likely to be transported in film clips from berlin during the cold war to post - blitz - bombed london to an antic parisian nightclub\u2014and then to a hollywood studio .\nsince it premiered at their mason\u2019s yard site in 2010 , the work has been showing almost continuously : in new york , yokohama , jerusalem , plymouth , venice , los angeles , sydney , boston , paris , and zurich . it\u2019s about to open in toronto , but for the first time , marclay isn\u2019t going . having rigorously attended its every installation , he decided to step back and let assistant paul anton smith take over . \u201cit had stopped me from doing other things\u201d he says . \u201ci had a couple of small shows but it was the clock and still the clock and the swiss guy who made the clock \u2013 ha ha\u201d he says wearily . \u201cat last it\u2019s taking on a life of its own and freeing me to focus on other things . \u201d\n2 . anxiety the clock references the cinematic past through the recycling of known films . as viewers , we look for anchor points or moments of identification in the montage of clocks appearing before us . for cinephiles , to identify a known actor or the film from which the fragment of time is detached is to locate oneself as an informed viewer in a structure of familiar territory . as comforting as this is , the linear structure of the work and the rapid exchange of one temporal reference by another reminds one that time never stops . expectation comes to propel the film forward from one clip to another . the expectation is that a reference to time will be found embedded in the next clip . a \u2018where\u2019s waldo\u2019 of time ensues as we are conditioned by the film to look for clocks . finding the temporal signifier resolves the expectation but this resolution is short - lived , replaced immediately with the expectation that the next scene will provide another image of time . viewers are kept continually in a state of perpetual and anxious receptivity . the film\u2019s oscillation between anticipation and resolution burns out the continuous punctuality of our attention span . the clock is relentless .\n44 ) lux radio theater broadcast a 60 - minute cbs radio adaptation of the movie on christmas day 1950 with judy garland reprising her film role as dorothy .\n49 ) the film won two oscars for best original score and best original song , and was nominated for best art direction , best cinematography and best effects ."]}

( don ' t they all do that at some point ? )\nthe problem i have with this is that i don ' t believe that every high school senior is out there having sex , is ready to have sex or needs to feel that 17 or 18 is the appropriate age to have sex because he or she saw it on prime - time tv .\ngo ahead and flame me , all you parents who justify your lack of parenting with lame lines like\nall the kids are doing it .\nhere ' s a news flash : they aren ' t . and maybe yours wouldn ' t be either if you had taught them about responsibility and consequences and not gone belly - up on doing your job .\naccording to the guttmacher institute , only 13 percent of teens have had sex by age 15 and 30 percent - - of both male and female teens - - still haven ' t had intercourse by the time they turn 19 . let me say it again : not everybody is doing it .\nthe institute found that teens are waiting longer to have sex than they did in the past . from 2006 to 2008 , about 11 percent of unmarried females aged 15 to 19 and 14 percent of unmarried males that age had had sex before they were 15 years old , while in 1995 , those percentages were 19 percent and 21 percent , respectively . read that : not only isn ' t everybody doing it , more kids nowadays are not .\nbut those teens who do have sex may face serious consequences . the guttmacher institute reports that each year , 750 , 000 teenage girls between 15 and 19 in the u . s . get pregnant . in 2008 , those between 13 and 24 years old comprised 17 percent of people diagnosed with hiv / aids in the u . s . the institute also reports that while\n15 - 24 - year - olds represent only one - quarter of the sexually active population , they account for nearly half ( 9 . 1 million ) of the 18 . 9 million new cases of stis each year .\nthese numbers reveal that some sexually active teens are taking serious risks , making responsible coverage of the issue even more important .\nbut numbers aside , there is a larger issue : the emotional land mines that sexual intercourse plants . seventeen - year - olds may be physically ready to have intercourse , but emotionally they are far from being able to handle it . unless you depersonalize sex and turn it into a sport for physical release - - in which case , may i suggest you just buy a vibrator and avoid the risk of hiv and pregnancy - - intercourse is something more , something bigger . it ' s an intimate expression of love between two people , not something you do just to feel good . fundamentalists might go a step further and say it ' s something you do to procreate ; that ' s their view , not mine . but i do believe that the intensity of pleasure that comes from having sex should be followed by something more than\ni have to go home now because i have a science test tomorrow and dad gave me a 10 p . m . curfew .\ni ' m not saying that sex outside marriage is a bad thing ; i actually don ' t think it is . but i do think sex involving high school seniors is a path to emotional letdown , disappointment and a self - esteem battering similar to tossing christians to the lions .\nfirst - person essays , features , interviews and q & as ; about life today .\nhayden christensen stars as lorenzo de lamberti , a ne ' er - do - well swashbuckler pining for the hand ( and flower ) of pampinea , played by mischa barton . on the run from pampinea ' s other suitor ( played by tim roth ) , lozenzo takes refuge in a convent , where the nuns are anxious to be filled with something other than the holy spirit . this action / sex comedy is written and directed by david leland .\nwhile not great , the 16x9 anamorphic widescreen presentation manages to deliver satisfactorily enough to make for a pleasant viewing experience . colors are drab and uninspired , but the framerate holds up well\nlanguages and audio the dolby 5 . 1 surround mix is somewhat flat and could likely have passed for a good stereo mix . rear speaker and subwoofer are almost nonexistent , but the center speaker holds up well and delivers the goods .\nwhats with that cover ?

dramatic ) direction and the coveted golden sheaf of excellence award for the top film of 2004 ) .\nhardwood\nwas also part of last year ' s official selection at the infact film series in los angeles .\ndavis\u2019s first film , hardwood , was nominated for an academy award for best short documentary . he received the don haig award at the hot docs festival for invisible city . davis also directed the short film aruba , the 2016 doc giants of africa and most recently the documentary short rivolta .\na film about the director ' s relationship with his father who was a team member of the harlem globetrotters .\nthe film also features never - seen - before dramatic archival material discovered in private and public archives in israel and europe .\nhardwood became a reality for me in 2000 when i read hubert ' s first funding proposal . it was seven oversized pages , each with a black and white photo or two and a few lines written beneath , describing the film . hubert ' s proposal was simple , elegant and poignant , so reflective of his completed film . all through the process of making\nhardwood ,\nhubert kept me involved . he asked me for feedback on what he wrote , got me to set up shoots in vancouver and chicago and research archival footage , and then he sent me rough cuts as he went through the process of editing\nhardwood .\nas a retired documentary filmmaker , i was deeply honored my son asked me to work on his first film .\ncurrently on tour throughout the us with the film , brody explained how the unrehearsed words he spoke from the heart upon beating the soviets are about much more than just basketball . his \u201con the map\u201d phrase entered the israeli vernacular because it resonated far beyond the hardwood court .\nhardwood began as an opportunity for me to support my brother hubert in his dream of becoming a filmmaker . the\nhardwood experience ,\nas i have now begun to affectionately describe the process of participating in the making and showing of hardwood , has been therapeutic and enlightening . as i contemplated organizing public showings of hardwood in atlanta , a close friend and mentor told me that\nour people ( black ) need this ; if one person decides to reconnect with their family , then sharing your family ' s story will be worth it .\nhe was right !\nread the full text of the poem \u00bb he shares in the film ,\nthere are some things i had to figure out .\n\u2018the film reflects a period of history that is still with so many israelis as they go to sleep and wake up every day . it\u2019s something they tell their kids and grandkids about\u2019\nas a human and civil rights activist for over a decade i have never experienced more\nintimate public discussions\nthan the ones that hubert and i engaged in after we premiered hardwood in atlanta community settings . sons , mothers , fathers and daughters openly cried in describing how they\nneeded this\nbecause now they can talk about what has happened in their own families . there is a universal message that hardwood offers to families of all races . but in a time when 70 percent of african - american children are born out of wedlock , and are twice as likely as white children to experience divorce , hardwood can become a powerful tool in the process of reconnecting and repairing our communities , family by family .\nwhile the surprise 1977 victory and brody\u2019s remarks are legendary among israelis of all ages , this astounding sporting accomplishment is little known across the atlantic . menkin , a lifelong maccabi tel aviv fan , decided it was time that americans became familiar with this miracle on hardwood .\nmenkin originally made a film about the story for israeli television , but realized after meeting executive producers nancy spielberg and roberta grossman \u2014 the team behind \u201cabove and beyond\u201d \u2014 that there could be a possibility of expanding it into a feature aimed at american audiences .\ni am currently living in toronto with my wife . i have recently completed production on my second short film , a drama called aruba , under the banner of my production company , shine . i also have a documentary in development called the invisible city about racial profiling .\nhardwood is a personal journey by director hubert davis , the son of former harlem globetrotter mel davis , who explores how his father ' s decisions affected his life and those of his extended family . elegantly structured into three chapters entitled\nlove ,\nrecollection\nand\nredemption ,\ndavis uses personal interviews , archival footage and home movies to delve into his father ' s past in the hope of finding a new direction for his own . at its core , hardwood is about the power of redemption and the healing of the bonds between fathers and sons .\nobviously , the highlight of the year was when hardwood was nominated for an academy award in 2005 for best documentary short subject . the best part of the experience was being able to share it with my family , who joined my wife kelly and me on the red carpet . i think the honor of being nominated was very validating for my family in having the courage to tell our story . the whole experience has brought me closer to my family and has given me a better insight into them as people . making hardwood has taught me so much about myself and has been the most rewarding professional experience of my life .\n\u201cthe film reflects a period of history that is still with so many israelis as they go to sleep and wake up every day . it\u2019s something they tell their kids and grandkids about . so much has happened in the world since then , but israel has stood strong throughout , \u201d brody said .\nmenkin is pleased with the release of \u201con the map\u201d just in time for the 40th anniversary of the game - changing championship . but more importantly , he is happy that he was able to get the film done while most of the former players are still able to recount their experiences for the camera .\n\u201cabove and beyond , \u201d is a 2014 film about american and other foreign former wwii airmen who volunteered to fight for israel in the 1948 war of independence and contribute to the nascent israeli air force . menkin saw a parallel in the maccabi team that won the european championship . it consisted mainly of american players recruited to elevate the team\u2019s playing .\nhardwood was presented to me as a request to participate in a project that would help bring closure to our family regarding the past . i was reluctant at first , not eager to relive the events that caused me so much pain and anguish , but i agreed after much urging from my son , mawuli . i hoped that this would finally put the matter to rest .\nin addition to brody , menkin got the full participation of the other surviving american - born members of the 1976 - 1977 maccabi tel aviv team , many of whom played numerous seasons with the team and ended up settling in israel and marrying israeli women . the film also features interviews with israeli former maccabi tel aviv star miki berkovich , former nba commissioner david stern , and american basketball icon bill walton , among others .\nas for me , i recently celebrated my tenth wedding anniversary with my wife , jana , and our two sons kobie ( 7 ) and khari ( 5 ) by renewing our vows on a cruise with family and friends . we now live in atlanta , georgia , where i have my own law practice , mawuli davis & associates . i am currently the co - chair of the atlanta chapter of the national coalition of blacks for reparations in america ( n ' cobra ) and of the state bar of georgia young lawyers division ' s minorities in the profession committee . i have been a youth basketball coach for both of my sons ' basketball teams for the last four years . i am looking forward to continuing to facilitate community discussions about the\nhardwood experience\nwith the hope that every family will find the courage to tell their story , and as hubert states in hardwood ,\nforever change the pattern\nof their lives .\nparticipating in hardwood on a personal level was also rewarding . answering hubert ' s questions as he delved into our past allowed me to go where i hadn ' t been in a very long time \u2014 to the beginning of my relationship with his father , when i was so very young . a time filled with joy and pain . i wanted hubert to know why i made the decisions i did in my life and his sensitive face showed he understood , and that comforted me . it is deeply gratifying now to witness how hubert ' s touching and honest story of our family is inspiring others to re - examine their family ' s relationships .\ni ' m often asked how i feel about my life being exposed in hardwood . my life has always been an open book . friends and family met mel in vancouver in the 60s . they knew i visited him on the road through the years . and everyone knew mel was married when i was pregnant with hubert . mel asked me to have his child and i said yes . it wasn ' t an easy decision to defend . my only regret was hurting mary etta . as the years passed i tried to talk myself out of my relationship with mel , to no avail . mel was my rock . one of the happiest days of my life was the day i married mel , 25 years after i met him .\nsome parts of this page won ' t work property . please reload or try later .\nbuzzing comedies such as the spy who dumped me await you in our summer movie guide . check in for all the info you need .\nwant to share imdb ' s rating on your own site ? use the html below .\nwith jurassic world : fallen kingdom now in cinemas , we take a look at how imdb users rated the films of the franchise . plus , browse exclusive lego\u00ae jurassic world playsets , presented by lego .\nenjoy a night in with these popular movies available to stream now with prime video .\nsvg public\n- / / w3c / / dtd svg 1 . 1 / / en\nurltoken\nmel is my steady companion and best friend now . i support him as he works with young people , teaching them about life through basketball . i visit family and friends . my passion is the natural world around me and i try to spend a few hours of each day just enjoying it . any spare time is divided between working to save a small\nnature\npark in vancouver and writing a book with mary etta exploring our parallel lives with mel .\ni found that , while talking about the events that happened 20 years ago , i was still connected to the past by the present and the future . reliving those years has brought me to an understanding of a history that began long before my failed marriage . in telling the story , i was forced to relive it , reexamine it and experience it from a different perspective . many things i did not know were revealed and the origin of certain behaviors were made understandable .\nif , by telling my story and that of my family \u2014 and i mean my extended family although it ' s not the\ntraditional\nfamily \u2014 perhaps other families can face their past and move ahead to the future .\ni am now a retired public school teacher and catholic school principal , living a life filled with children , grandchildren , volunteerism , church and other activities . i have no regrets about the past , because if it had been any different , i would not be who i am today and i would not have my son and grandchildren . . . my family .\nharry and the hendersons official trailer # 1 -

out days , coz i know i\u2019m not planning to review them anyway , so it really doesn\u2019t matter if my brain\u2019s not all switched on . hot young bloods took me by surprise though . i had so many thoughts after the movie that a review really seemed the only way to get them all out ! xd i think that\u2019s possibly similar to what happened with you when you watched the suspect ! many thoughts together = review in the making !\nmr . sloan joined the bloods when he was 12 , but now considers involvement in gangs \u201cself -

sik and young - sook are hanging out with each other at a bonfire . gwang - sik pushes forth the idea that maybe he and young - sook can start making some progress in their friendship , but she doesn\u2019t seem to like it . he assumes it\u2019s because of another guy who he is willing to hurt so that young - sook will only be his . possessive much ?\ni was expecting kim young kwang to have a more significant role in this movie , but unfortunately he was greatly overshadowed by the two leads , lee jong seok and park bo young . lee jong seok ' s bumbling lover boy character did deliver some laughs , especially when faced with kim young kwang ' s gangster character . but the standout was park bo young - don ' t be fooled by her baby face , she can strike fear in the heart of any man with her punches and vulgarities . quite a transformation from her previous roles .\nrunning turtle director lee yeon - woo is at the helm of a new film which began production earlier this month . blood boiling youth ( literal title ) is a romantic comedy pairing two of korea\u2019s most popular young stars , park bo - young and lee jong - suk .\nbo young is fine . the one that captures my attention is lee jong suk . he was so natural from head to toe : d\nlater on that evening , young - sook ends up joining choong - gil instead of so - hee , causing choong - gil to of course be disappointed . when he reveals that he likes so - hee because she\u2019s beautiful ( implying that he thinks young - sook isn\u2019t ) , she leaves choong - gil at the hotel mad and furious . ( don\u2019t worry young - sook , you\u2019re beautiful to me ! ) .\nthe next day at school , choong - gil\u2019s friend hwang - kyu ( played by park jung min ) is forced to share with young - sook what type of things choong - gil likes and has interest in . she ends up getting choong - gil a pair of new sneakers which he doesn\u2019t approve of and want . when choong - gil confronts young - sook about the shoes , he pretends to act like he doesn\u2019t want it , but when young - sook threatens to take it back , he makes up an excuse to young - sook so that he can keep it . haha . and young - sook knows that choong - gil likes her gift , smirking after he leaves the classroom . hehe .\nthis film is so exciting and i love park bo young and also lee jong suk . . love it to the maxxx . daebakkk ! !\ngang , views young sook as his woman . a new female transfer student from seoul arrives at their high school . she ' s different from the other girls and beautiful . joong gil falls for her instantly , while young sook attempts to prevent the new girl from encroaching on her secret crush . trouble also brews for joong gil as gwang shik becomes aware of young sook stepping in between joong gil and the new transfer student .\ngwang - sik ends up fighting choong - gil\u2019s classmate once the train lands as they are known for being enemies . when the fight ends , choong - gil is about to leave but turns around to find young - sook behind him . he explains to young - sook that he didn\u2019t meet her the night before because he doesn\u2019t have any interest in her like that and because he fears gwang - sik who claims young - sook as his . \u201cthis thing between us is not love . it\u2019s a threat , \u201c choong - gil voices , offending young - sook who clenches her fists .\nactor lee jong - suk and actress park bo - young will be acting together in the film\nboiling youth ,\nlotte entertainment said tuesday .\na new female transfer student ( lee se - young ) from seoul arrives at their high school . she ' s different from the other girls and beautiful . joong - gil falls for her instantly , while young - sook attempts to prevent the new girl from encroaching on her secret crush . trouble also brews for joong - gil as gwang - sik becomes aware of young - sook stepping in between joong - gil and the new transfer student .\nthis is gonna be fuunnnn ! ! ! so excited for this movie . . . park bo young , fighting ! ! ! ! ! ^ ^\na new female transfer student ( lee se - young ) from seoul arrives at their high school . she ' s different from the other girls and beautiful . joong - gil falls for her instantly , while young - sook attempts to prevent the new girl from encroaching on her secret crush . trouble also brews for joong - gil as gwang - sik becomes aware of young - sook stepping in between joong - gil and the new transfer student .\nyou don\u2019t hear this from mr . sloan , who talks more about his banger brother , who went to prison for life , and died young .\nwhen you\u2019re young and discovering the opposite sex , you tend to fixate on . . things , and also tend to be inordinately amused by those things .\nin fact , that whole fight that she had with so hee was something that so hee started . young sook had merely acted in self - defense .\nyoung sook tries to go between them . but than gwang - sik becomes aware that\nhis woman\nis interested in joong - gil . . .\nset in the 80s , a countryside high school teen named , joong - gil , is the biggest heartthrob in town . young - sook , the girlfriend of the school\u2019s toughest bully , has a crush on joong - gil , but he shows her no interest . one day , so - hee , an innocent looking girl , moves into town . young - sook thinks of so - hee as her rival and picks a fight with her . meanwhile , young - sook\u2019s boyfriend suspects ties between young - sook and joong - gil and harasses so - hee , whom joong - gil has a crush on . joo . . .\nhey there jedd ! i am not entirely sure , but i suspect that the girl at the factory was so hee , played by lee se young . \ud83d\ude42\nwe then find young - sook approaching another group of girls from another school as if they\u2019re going to get ready to beat one another up anytime soon . the leaders of each group come to the front of their own groups to confront each other and so you have young - sook marching towards the front and the leader from the other group standing in the front as well . soon they\u2019re face to face with each other but are distracted by the bicycle couple who are still riding away on the bicycle . annoyed , young - sook criticizes the male student\u2019s face which angers the leader from the other group who then throws a punch at young - sook\u2019s face as a consequence for her harsh comment . but young - sook isn\u2019t the leader of her crew for nothing for she attacks the girl back and knocks her out cold just like that ( there goes my park bo young ! keke ) . the two groups end up fighting one another and war breaks out .\nmr . sloan begins with a myth : that gangs like the bloods and the crips started in 1972 , when they formed in response to a dispute over a leather jacket . that\u2019s rubbish . the film shows that gang animosity in los angeles dates to the 1940s and \u201950s , when the police had set up an extortion racket on central avenue to bilk the black music clubs .\nyoung - sook escapes to her village and recalls memories of the past between her and choong - gil . they were childhood friends and classmates when they were younger so that\u2019s how they know each other . young - sook remembers the one time when choong - gil gave her his compass so that she wouldn\u2019t get in trouble for not having hers . he ends up getting in trouble for not having his compass later on at school that day , but he remains strong and reassures young - sook that he is fine .\ni absolutely love this movie and the fights were very good ! also jun soo jin looked super sexy and looked like a real bad girl i would love to see her in action movies . * spoiler * i loved the fact that joong gil ( lee jong suk ) could never really stand up to gwang sik ( young - kwang ) even when he wanted to fight him because of so hee ( se - young ) he tried but was still a wimp about it and did nothing but when it came to young sook ( park bo young ) he was able to actually fight without fear . i think that part is very meaningful because it showed how much she really meant to him .\na radio dj / entertainer in his 30s suddenly learns he may be a grandfather , thanks to a young girl who has a baby son and claims to be his daughter .\nall the students exiting off the train walks past the three friends , including the girl teacher that choong - gil landed on as well as young - sook and her sidekick .\nboth joong gil and young sook needed to sort out their inner turmoil and figure out who they were as people , before they were ready to come together as a couple .\neven when joong gil was chasing every other girl around , i believe that young sook knew \u2013 or at least , wanted to believe \u2013 that he was made of better stuff .\nthanks azure , i\u2019m glad you enjoyed the movie , and this review ! \ud83d\ude42 i really enjoy lee jong suk and park bo young as well . they\u2019re both such talented actors .\n\u201caegyo is how i live this world , \u201d he continued with his killing smile , making the audience laugh . \u201cmaybe it\u2019s because i started my model career when i was young . \u201d\noh . em . gee . . . . this movie was daebak hilarious ! . . . . seriously . . . and the music was just divine . . . ljs , what a talent . . . . he was exceptionally funny , boom ! ! . . . i watched this today ( hot young bloods ) because of my new found admiration for kyk , whom i thought did well here too , lovin the sleek - oily - hair - look . . . ( the flares , omg the flared pants . . . waaat ! ) . i have always been enthralled by ljs in many of his roles , hes just super cute and a great actor . cant believe this was done 3years ago . . . such amazing talents and look where they are now . . . congratulations guys , you all did well and i look forward to seeing so much more , kahmsamnida . . . actually this movie is one of my favorites now too , amazing absolutely , thank you so much , fighting ! ! !\nso - hee confirms with choong - gil whether what she heard about young - sook liking choong - gil is true or not to which he responds , \u201cdon\u2019t say something so scary like that . \u201d lol . he adds that someone just made it up and that it holds no truth . ugh , really choong - gil ? ! you\u2019re just going to ignore young - sook like that ? tsk tsk tsk . meanwhile , young - sook finally lets her feelings out as she cries over the sight of choong - gil and so - hee together back at the restaurant .\nbefore the time skip , joong gil is a big hot mess of a character , with a lot of baggage to sort through . after the time skip , when we come back to him , he\u2019s clearly a more settled , mature version of himself . there\u2019s groundedness and resolve in his eyes . he has set his heart on what he wants to do , and it\u2019s gratifying to see him go for it .\nthe movie begins by following two high students riding on a bicycle . they continue to ride through the fields with the male student continually looking back at the female student in concern , but smiling when he finds her happy and content . the ride comes to an abrupt stop though when the couple notices young - sook ( park bo young ) , the bad - ass and frightening leader that harbors a crush on our male student . young - sook also notices the couple and grows annoyed at the sight of her crush with another woman , but she goes on to mind her own business .\neveryone is surprised and taken aback , but the one person that is probably the most infuriated at this point is young - sook who watches all of this unfold right in front of her eyes .\nafter eating at the hotel with her friends , young - sook returns home only to find visitors / customers there ( she sleeps at her restaurant ) . she waits for a while until they leave and then enters her house . young - sook cooks a small meal for a frequent customer even though it\u2019s late at night without saying a single word to him then leaves afterwards to enter her bedroom .\nif you would like to read my other thoughts on this movie , i wrote a \u2018what mary thinks\u2019 edition on this movie a few months ago so you can read that here . but all in all , although \u2018hot blooded youth\u2019 did provide me with laughter , smiles , and tears , i honestly admit that i wouldn\u2019t want to watch it a third time around . i think watching it two times is good enough for me .\nset in the 80s , a countryside high school teen named , joong - gil , is the biggest heartthrob in town . young - sook , the girlfriend of the school\u2019s toughest bully , has a crush on joong - gil , but he shows her no interest . one day , so - hee , an innocent looking girl , moves into town . young - sook thinks of so - hee as her rival and picks a fight with her . meanwhile , young - sook\u2019s boyfriend suspects ties between young - sook and joong - gil and harasses so - hee , whom joong - gil has a crush on . joong - gil tries to get revenge for so - hee\u2019s sake , but gets beaten down every time . at last , joong - gil decides to have his ultimate battle of revenge aboard a running commuter train .\nthe actress park plays \u2018young - sook ' , the school ' s top girl gangster , and the actor lee plays \u2018joong - gil ' , the school ' s legendary casanova at hongseong agricultural high school .\nin her bedroom , young - sook studies a small but cherished geometry compass that she\u2019s kept to this day . she caresses it while she holds it , reminded of all the memories that the compass encompasses .\nmr . sloan now says this was a \u201cghetto folktale , \u201d but it fractured the movement . the crips and the bloods , the gangs that formed in the 1970s , are seen by mr . sloan as the bastard children of the political organizations of the \u201960s . \u201cout of the ashes of the black panther party came the gangs , \u201d he says . the crips had a sketchy plan for social reform and inventive forms of pageantry ; they also had a constitution .\ni\u2019m not sure how others feel about our second leads , but i really disliked them . so - hee was pretty two - faced which was evident in the bathroom scene where she was fighting young - sook . young - sook didn\u2019t strip so - hee\u2019s clothes off ; so - hee took off her own clothes so that she could prepare to fight young - sook . then when choong - gil came inside the restroom , so - hee pretended to act like she was all innocent and faultless and like she was getting beatened up by young - sook when she herself was the person who initiated the fight . like seriously ? ! i mean young - sook isn\u2019t all that good either , but at least she doesn\u2019t pretend to act all cute and innocent and stays tough and bossy throughout the whole movie , displaying a consistent image and role . as for gwang - sik , he was just waaayyyy too obsessive over young - sook and way too possessive . it\u2019s funny how he didn\u2019t realize that young - sook never liked him until the end of the movie . he was too blind and delusional to realize that young - sook never cared for him . and plus , the majority of the scenes that we saw him in was of him either fighting or beating choong - gil up . the movie didn\u2019t really offer to introduce their background stories either which is why they seem hateful to me . we don\u2019t really know much about our second leads other than that so - hee moved to the countryside because of her health and that gwang - sik claimed young - sook who was never his to begin with . if the movie had given some background information on our second leads and the obstacles or problems they faced to become the tough and rugged person they are , maybe i would pity them a little , but because the movie didn\u2019t , i just ended the movie feeling bitter and hateful towards them , lol .\ni love this movies . . i love park boyoung the most one . . haha . . i love all the scene that boyoung unnie act . . all the gang scene . . haha . . its too live and natural acting i ever see . . all over it , i really love and i hope that bo young will have a character like this again . . haha lol ! park bo young fighting ! !\nthis is my second comment , i don ' t know why the first one didn ' t comes out . it looks funny movie , i wish blood boiling youth will be a memorable movie in early 2014 . yeeee . . . . ! ! ! lee jong suk , kim young kwang , long legs man collaboration . so sad kim young kwang will not going to promote this movie with others due his military duty .\nset in the 80s , a countryside high school teen named , joong - gil , is the biggest heartthrob in town . young - sook , the girlfriend of the school ' s toughest bully , has a crush on joong - gil , but he shows her no interest . one day , so - hee , an innocent looking girl , moves into town . young - sook thinks so - hee as her rival and picks a fight with her . meanwhile , young - sook ' s boyfriend suspects ties between young - sook and joong - gil and harasses so - hee , whom joong - gil has a crush on . joong - gil tries to get revenge for so - hee ' s sake , but gets beaten down every time . at last , joong - gil decides to have his ultimate battle of revenge aboard a running commuter train .\nhis two friends does relay to young - sook though that choong - gil\u2019s in danger because of gwang - sik so she goes to rescue him . choong - gil is able to leave gwang - sik with just a few injuries on his face because of young - sook who stops and threatens gwang - sik . she meets up with choong - gil f a few minutes later and they walk together back home , but choong - gil doesn\u2019t want young - sook\u2019s help or for her to be around him . he walks ahead of her to avoid her presence , but stops when she pulls out the compass asking him if he remembers it .\nyoung - sook can\u2019t stand to stay in the warehouse any longer so she walks back home . while on her walk home , she meets gwang - sik who questions her on where she\u2019s going and whether or not she met up with choong - gil . young - sook answers that yes , they met up and actually did something together too which pisses gwang - sik off even more . she walks away unaffected by his anger though .\ni definitely enjoyed the more serious , dramatic , and emotional scenes in this movie , with most of them revolving around the childhood memories and the past . it was only then that we were able to get a better understanding of our characters . the young - sook that was an elementary kid was not the same young - sook that was in high school . the same can be applied to choong - gil and their relationship which was not the same when they were in elementary school and when they were in high school . a lot of things changed between choong - gil and young - sook and i wished the film could have shown us on how they drifted apart instead of forcing us to watch choong - gil flirt and play around with girls ( which i understand is his main feature and characteristic , but it got really boring and tiring ) . i enjoyed watching young young - sook and choong - gil interact with each other as friends , because it proves that they were close at one point , but what i think the film should have done was show us how they became distant .\nbut the movie felt slightly directionless - probably due to a combination of the writing and the directing . the character and relationship development were half - hearted , especially between lee jong seok and park bo young ' s characters .\nthe principal meets up with so - hee\u2019s father and young - sook\u2019s mother so that they can talk about the fight and reach a consensus , but they themselves end up arguing . fed up and exhausted , young - sook runs out of the office to get her belongings in her classroom and walks out of the school campus . while she walks out , choong - gil watches her from inside his classroom and ponders over her attitude plus behavior .\nlater on that night , young - sook dresses up really nicely ( she\u2019s wearing a dress ! how cute ! ) and checks her make - up in the mirror while waiting at choong - gil\u2019s \u2018base . \u2019 young - sook grows happy at the sound of footsteps but becomes disappointed when it\u2019s not the person that she wants . it turns out that choong - gil had an emergency so he sent his friend instead to go to the base to relay the message . disappointed , she walks towards the door but is interrupted by choong - gil\u2019s friend who has other plans instead . he places his hand on young - sook\u2019s behind and puts on a creepy smile which infuriates young - sook and causes her to beat choong - gil\u2019s friend up pretty bad . ( yeah dude , you\u2019re messing with the wrong person . but it\u2019s okay choong - gil\u2019s friend ! i would have you anytime ! ) .\nhis efforts to capture so - hee\u2019s heart goes to waste though for young - sook always ends up ruining his plans and stealing the gifts he got for so - hee . lol . just acknowledge and accept young - sook\u2019s feelings already choong - gil ! haha . when he finds so - hee feeding some rabbits that she seems to like , he ends up getting her those rabbits without her knowing who got it for her and why , but she accepts it regardless . meanwhile , young - sook notices the sneakers that she originally bought for choong - gil being worn by gwang - sik and grows angry because she didn\u2019t buy it for gwang - sik in the first place .\nhere is a little quick summary for you guys before i go ahead and start on the recap . it\u2019s a version of my own summary for the movie since i\u2019ve watched it before . hehe . so i apologize if it sounds really funny and weird . \u2018hot blooded youth\u2019 takes place in the early 1980\u2032s and showcases the lives of our four main characters : young - sook ( played by park bo young ) , joong - chil ( played by lee jong suk ) , so - hee ( played by lee se young ) , and gwang - sik ( played by kim young - kwang ) . to put it into simpler terms , the movie revolves around a love square . gwang - sik likes young - sook who likes joong - chil who likes so - hee . young - sook is the jjang or iljin of her high school . she\u2019s basically like the bad - ass leader that most of the girls obey out of fear . she\u2019s tough , bad - ass , and can drop kick a guy twice her height . yeah , i would be scared of her too . joong - chil is this really witty guy who uses his own method to capture the fluttering hearts of girls . he\u2019s suave and smooth when it comes to girls , but not so much when it comes to fighting as many times in this movie , he always comes home with a bruised face . so - hee is that new student who transferred from seoul that many of the guys spazz over , including joong - chil . so he tries his own tactics to get at her and almost succeeds . last but not least , gwang - sik is the iljin or leader of his mob and he harbors this crush ( but more like possession ) over young - sook , claiming her to be his and when he discovers that there might be someone else interfering in their relationship , he gets super angry and scary . sooo basically you don\u2019t want to mess with him either . the movie ultimately showcases the complex relationships between all our four lead characters and the journey that they embark on together .\nher gaze betrays layers of hurt even though she never speaks of them . and even though young sook\u2019s first instinct is always to protect her pride , she\u2019s bold and gutsy and never shies away from tough situations or difficult decisions .\ncan you help me out with something though ? i had been frantically searching for the song that was used at the beginning of the movie . the one that was played in the background when joong gil was riding a bicycle . also there were more songs like this throughout the movie , like when joong gil was about to kiss young sook but gets caught by lee se young . can you please tell me the name of the song and the singer ?\nso fcuking good . . . so so good . . . you just can ' t even - - ugh . the parts towards the end was just damn . great performance from lee jong suk and park bo young : - )\nchoong - gil and young - sook\u2019s school have just returned from another trip and is heading back to school . while on the train , choong - gil\u2019s friends expose to him details they\u2019ve obtained of the new transfer student from seoul ( creepy much eh ? ) . her name is so - hee ( lee se young ) which means \u2018rain\u2019 in korean , so upon hearing this , choong - gil\u2019s friend asks if it\u2019s raining and looks outside the window . hahaha .\nso - hee confronts young - sook on how troublesome she is and they end up fighting each other . although the crowd that has formed outside of the girl\u2019s restroom just watches them fight in amazement , choong - gil comes to stop them from continuing on any further . he accuses young - sook of stripping so - hee\u2019s clothes off of her when he comes to rescue so - hee ( who feigns weakness and fear ) and takes her out of the restroom .\nset in the early 1980 ' s in heongseong , south korea . young sook is the feared leader of a female gang at the high school . although she is known for her toughness , she has a secret crush on joong gil . meanwhile , joong gil is the school ' s playboy . he attempts to woo all the girls at his high school except for young sook . that ' s because gwang shik , the feared leader of a rival school ' s male\npark bo - young and kim young - kwang are set to co - star in the upcoming romantic drama your wedding ( translated title ) . in the film\u2019s plot , soo - jeong ( kim ) receives a wedding invitation from his first love seung - hee ( park ) . the film chronicles the 10 - year relationship of the two , beginning with their high school years and following them into adulthood . your wedding marks a return to the silver screen . . .\nso - hee is dissatisfied at first , but roller skating with choong - gil turns out to be a great time for her . she gets to witness clumsy choong - gil make a fool out of himself by continually falling and trying to impress her by pretending like he knows how to roller skate when really he doesn\u2019t . their date continues when they visit the town to get something to eat . while walking and talking casually , they come across young - sook\u2019s who working at her mom\u2019s restaurant . young - sook notices choong - gil and so - hee together , but doesn\u2019t say a word . the hurt and sorrowful look in her eyes already conveys enough .

karat - gold douchebag . flanagan has been honing her tirelessly contrarian standpoints on motherhood , work , abortion , teen girls , sexuality , adultery , and education in the pages of such august publications as the new yorker and the atlantic monthly for almost a decade , and in that time has churned out dozens of stupendously specious , haughty , and intellectually dishonest ( and sometimes plagiarized ! ) reviews and opinion pieces that offer little more than a window on the author ' s self - focused worldview . herewith , some of her defining plays .\nthermoplastic provided the answer to one of the questions about how to dress students as objects . visual artist ellie kinney \u201918 , who has taught herself how to use the unusual medium , describes it as similar to construction paper that can be shaped and cut and then secured with heat gun . kinney\u2019s thermoplastic pieces serve as supplements costumes , such as feather duster babette\u2019s handle or lumiere\u2019s candelabra .\nwow ! wow ! wow ! turned by morgan rice was fabulous ! couldn ' t put this down . even though it was a shorter novel , it was filled to the brim with excitement and suspense . caitlin is not your normal teenager . when she moves to a new york city with her mom and brother sam , she doesn ' t know what to expect . one day after school , she notices a fellow classmate being bullied in an alley . when she tries to help , and discovers herself in danger , an overwhelming hunger , urge and strength comes over her . the unfortunate thing is , she doesn ' t remember a thing . when it happens again , it turns fatal and she finds herself in the middle of a vampire war . with the help of a fellow vampire caleb , she escapes , but not for long . she may just be\nthe one\nthey are looking for . i ' ll be starting the next book in this series , like now ! thanks ms . rice , you ' ve made a fan out of me ! ! ! highly recommended .\never since flashpoint , team flash hasn\u2019t been the same that we knew and loved last season . the flash season 3 has seen caitlin dealing with her earth -

reflective series about artistic indecision ( after\nart history ,\nsilver bullets\nand\nthe zone\n) focuses on real - life performance artist caitlin stainken ( who also co - wrote ) and her intermittent relationship with an indie filmmaker played , unsurprisingly , by swanberg himself .\nof course , a blow to this relationship can be dealt by changing the gender of the artist and her audience . and this is what stasey , in word and text , has done . but to suppose , as many have , that such a simple shift will disrupt the way in which a woman\u2019s body is conventionally viewed by herself or others \u2014 and this is the process to which the phrase \u201cmale gaze\u201d generally refers \u2014 is na\u00efve .\nand for some actors , that pressure to follow the \u201cgeneral characteristics\u201d has become more personal . lead actress cypress smith \u201917 plays belle . \u201ci recognize that i\u2019m a person of color playing a role that has pretty much always been white , \u201d she said . \u201ceveryone has been really good about keeping as much of myself in the role as possible . \u201d she added that one way of doing this is by wearing her hair in its naturally curly state , rather than straightening it or covering it with a wig .\nin her house , ellie was having difficulty preparing her notes for the interview the next day as griffin was having a party . as the party became even noisier , ellie decided to do her work in the core . when she arrived at the office , she was shocked to find jesse and caitlin having sex . the next morning , jesse tried to apologize to her but she said that she wanted to break up . after he managed to manipulate her into continuing their relationship , she told him that she was going to quit the paper as she did not want people talking about them . as paige helped her to pick out an outfit for the interview , she confided in her that jesse and caitlin had hooked up . when paige commented that she did not know why either of them had dated jesse , ellie told her that she was still with jesse but had quit the core . paige thought that this was a very bad idea and that there were times when she had to choose her professional career over her love life as the interview with caitlin was a great opportunity for her .\nluckily for the high school , though , the drama department has a robust team of volunteers who are up for the challenge . as costume designer cathy dubois put it , the team has been \u201csewing like maniacs . \u201d dubois herself has been researching and planning how the execute the challenging costumes since this summer . gillooly gushed about just how much effort and work dubois has poured into designing costumes . \u201cthe amount of thought that cathy has put into making these costumes is incredible . \u201d\nso while philosophically flanagan believes that\nwhen a mother works , something is lost ,\nsomeone has to clean up the yucky fluids that princess can ' t soil her tiny hands with . what kind of person proudly calls herself a stay - at - home mother , demonizes professional working women , yet employs other women , with their own children , to do the work she considers beneath her ? i ' ll tell you : a dryer - fresh , lemon - scented douchebag .\nonce matthew arrives at the train station to collect her , we\u2019re in more familiar territory . episode one covers the first 10 chapters of the book , more or less , with a few later incidents thrown in . the drive from the station is basically canonical , as anne chatters to matthew and marvels at the blossom - lined drive known as the avenue . when they arrive and she discovers she is not wanted after all , the world recedes again as she begins to disassociate . it\u2019s hard not to be affected by mcnulty\u2019s performance , especially later , when she sobs herself to sleep . the experience of trauma and its aftermath feels real , though it\u2019s not exactly the stuff of montgomery\u2019s romantic escapism . it\u2019s one thing to read about anne crying herself to sleep , and quite another to witness her reliving the experience of being viciously beaten by mr . hammond . unlike montgomery , wallet -

i fail to see the significance , other than the hope that it will be confused with the\nvampire diaries\nseries . the story itself just doesn ' t track . for instance , caitlin and her brother sam have this horrible mother and no father , so they ' re supposed to be incredibly close :\nhe was the only constant in her life . . . he seemed\nhmmp . . let see . . this is definitely an easy read novel . . i finished it in about 3 hrs . . it has some good points in it such as how the author choose to use simple words which is definitely a good one since i ' m having a hard time reading other novels and keep on glancing my dictionary and keep wondering if its meant to be literally or if its meant to be figurative . . but anyway , i hate to say that the negative ones , outnumbered the positive . so here are some of them : i hate how caitlin keeps o\nreview for : bloddeuedd i\u2019ll be honest , when b . sent me this book and i saw the title , my thoughts were : \u201cgawd , not another vampire diaries , twilight rip - off ! \u201d \u2018cause there seems to be no end of those . it\u2019s like the davinci code all over again ! while turned is in no way original or refreshing \u2013 at least to me ( let\u2019s face it , there\u2019s not much i haven\u2019t seen and that includes lizard vampires ! ) \u2013 it was a nice read and i was glad b . sent it over . let me tell you why . caitlin\u2019s mum has the moving bug ,\nwhat a weird book . i got it for free , from the writers website . but i ' m not really sure what i think of it . it hasn ' t really started yet . i was just getting in to it , but it already ended . the idea of this book is good , and it could definitly go somewhere , but i feel like it ' s not been thought through . if that makes any sense . . i don ' t like the main character . caitlin falls in love with a complete stranger , she doesn ' t even know his name . and a few hours before she met this complete stranger she\ncontrary to what had been said by a police officer at the inquest in 2015 , in a high court hearing in 2017 a senior judge said that there was no evidence her widower was unfaithful or even that she feared he had been . the suicide note had been misread by detective inspector koran sellars , of greater manchester police , said the judge , sir brian leveson . the portion of the note which the detective believed to be addressed to another woman was actually written by ms putney to herself , he said . \u201ci have no doubt whatsoever that the note does not bear the meaning that det insp sellars sought to give it\u2026 i repeat that there is nothing in the note or any of the other evidence to suggest that mr mueller has ever had an affair or was ever unfaithful to his wife , \u201d sir brian said in his ruling .\n, except that neither swanberg nor stainken is as charismatic an actor as jean - pierre l\u00e9aud , and the drama that ultimately emerges offers nothing as compelling as eustache\u2019s devastating finale . perhaps judging this film by the standards of conventional screenwriting or french films from the \u201860s and \u201870s is misguided ; after all , swanberg has said that he\u2019s more influenced by youtube clips than cinema from the past . at its best , his cinema suggests a hybrid between previous models and something genuinely new , specific to video and our fragmented technological communication . ( caitlin talks about reducing her anxiety by going off the grid . ) while not nearly as accomplished as the films it evokes ,\nyour article contains many insightful ideas , but i believe that comparing philosophical feminist or equality ideas with this project encourages the suggestion it lacks something it may never have been trying to achieve . it came across as though you were desperately trying to dial back your criticism of stacey ( although i will accept if this is not the case ) for failing in goals that she herself didn\u2019t set . the project appears to be a direct attempt to counteract the societal ill of unhealthy media representation of women . along the line of setting up a soup kitchen to feed hungry people , directly engaging with the people who are without food . no one blames the soup kitchen for failing to dictate social policy or political debate . they are doing their bit , someone else needs to be in canberra advocating for the homeless , and trying to do both at the same time can often be counterproductive .\nwhen the flash premiered on the cw in 2014 , it won glowing reviews from comic fans and newcomers alike . with charming performers like grant gustin , jesse l . martin , carlos valdes , and tom cavanagh at the core of the cast and ingenious special effects delivering a superheroic punch , the arrow spin - off quickly became the most watched show in the network\u2019s history . but there was a hitch in * the flash\u2019 * s sprint to tv greatness . through no fault of the actresses playing its female leads , characters iris west and caitlin snow have never quite matched the stride of the show itself when it\u2019s humming on all cylinders . but the third - season premiere proves that the flash has finally figured out how to use one of its leading ladies .\nanne is played by 15 - year - old amybeth mcnulty , who is a more convincing 13 - year - old than megan follows was at 17 . she\u2019s as thin and waifish as described in the book ( in which anne is actually supposed to be only 11 ) , with big , expressive eyes . we first meet her on the train , looking out the window . when she\u2019s startled from her reverie by a crying baby , the cheery fiddle soundtrack dissolves into dissonance and she slips into a dark memory of being slapped and screamed at by mrs . hammond in the unhappy household where she used to be a little drudge . before anne has even uttered a word , we learn she has ptsd . when she comes back to herself , she remarks to mrs . spencer , \u201ci like imagining more than remembering . why are the worst memories the most insistent ? \u201d there\u2019s more than a touch of bitterness in the question . evidently , this anne shirley has issues\u2014and an edge .\nthat is , unless those women work for me . it ' s a rare kind of asshole who can lecture other women about the importance of housewifery in one breath and brag about being far too good for quotidian domestic chores in the next . caitlin flanagan is that asshole . she proudly noted in the 2003 atlantic essay\nhousewife confidential\nthat not only had she never changed a sheet , she was\nfar too educated and uppity to have knuckled down and learned anything about stain removal or knitting or stretching recipes .\nsinging the praises of her nanny , paloma , in her 2006 essay collection to hell with all that , she describes her method of dealing with a sick child .\n' paloma , patrick is throwing up !

communist crackdown that swept through the united states in the late 1940s and early 1950s . besides the hollywood ten , other members of the film industry with alleged communist ties were later banned from working for the big movie studios . the hollywood blacklist came to an end in the 1960s .\nlocation : camrose park -

[ 2 ]\nthose calloways is a 1965 american film adaption of a book by paul annixter . annixter and his wife jane were writers of books for young readers . the film was produced by disney and directed by norman tokar . it was the last credit for veteran film composer max steiner .\noriginally trade - previewed as those crazy calloways , disney ' s those calloways is a lengthy , anecdotal film about a highly individualistic new england family . patriarch cam calloway ( brian keith ) is regarded as a crank by the local villagers because of his dream to build a bird sanctuary that will protect migratory geese from hunters . cam uses all his savings to buy a lake , where he intends to establish his sanctuary . when a wealthy sportsman offers to turn the town into a booming resort community in exchange for hunting rights , cam opposes the plan , which briefly puts him on the outs with everyone else . only when cam is accidentally shot by the sportsman do the locals rally around the\ncrazy\ncalloways so that cam ' s sanctuary can come to fruition .\nthis results in the calloways being evicted from their home and having to build a new log cabin on the marshland . fortunately , the townspeople come to help and the cabin is built in no time .\ndespite that , the calloways seem to be an overall loving married couple and manage to patch up their problems quicker than others . they also have a teenage adult son named bucky , played by brandon dewilde ,\ncam calloway ( brian keith ) is a man with a dream : to one day establish a sanctuary for the geese that fly overhead during their long migration . unfortunately , cam lacks the money to buy the necessary property - - until his son buck ( brandon de wilde ) embarks on a project that will guarantee success . . . unaware that greedy hunters are manipulating the calloway family for their own selfish gains . beautifully filmed in vermont , those calloways is a stirring outdoor drama glowingly filmed in the rural new england countryside and featuring an exceptional cast of popular movie performers .\nthose calloways is currently available on dvd . a minor restoration has been done , but the print is still flawed by excess grain and artifacts that shouldn ' t be there . the film is presented in a widescreen aspect ratio of 1 . 66 : 1 . while theater exhibition guides didn ' t specify which aspect ratio was correct , most disney films from this era were presented in 1 . 75 : 1 . however , 1 . 66 : 1 is pretty close and is much more preferred than disney ' s usual fullscreen transfers . there aren ' t any bonus features . the film is also available on itunes where it can be purchased in hd widescreen .\nback to the main plot : after a successful hunting season , bucky returns home with a good number of furs to sell in the market after the christmas holidays . sadly , the fur market somewhat crashes , so instead of receiving $ 1800 for the furs as they thought they were gonna get , the calloways only received $ 450 .\nit ' s easy to understand why critics were so torn on this film . it has some really great moments . there is some humor , mostly involving mrs . calloway trying to shoe a bear away that always comes to their cottage . there are also some truly touching moments , like when she is presented with her first fur coat for christmas . all of the actors give fine performances and swiftwater feels like it would be a great place to visit , which adds to the films appeal . on the other hand , a story about a family who loses everything to save some geese doesn ' t seem very justifiable and with a two hour runtime , its easy to see why so many were quick to dismiss it . it ' s a slow paced film full of sentiment for a simpler time that doesn ' t exist anymore . if you enjoy that kind of film , you will probably be amongst those who truly love those calloways . i enjoyed the film , but i wouldn ' t go as far as to say its one of disney ' s best .\nthey live near the forest in a typical log cabin . cam\u2019s occupation is trapping . he lays traps for ermines and other forest animals and sells their furs . i find this somewhat hypocritical . he\u2019s upset about people shooting the geese . but , he doesn\u2019t mind killing other animals . on top of that , he doesn\u2019t mind killing those animals and using the money to buy the marshland to save the geese .\nthe film begins with footage of geese as the credits play and we are introduced to the cottage of the calloways . the son bucky gets in a fight with a man in the town who is shooting at the geese as they fly over . when he gets home , his father tries to teach him how to fight . when a rich business man sees the geese and hears that they fly over swiftwater on their way south and north , he tells the town it would be good business to make it a tourist destination for hunters . when mr . calloway finds out what the town is up to he is outraged . he takes a loan to buy the lake property that the town was planning to turn into a stop for the geese . their main source of income is selling furs . when the market crashes and they make less then expected for their sales , he gets in over his head and can\u2019t pay back the loan . they are evicted from their cottage and they move onto the new property where they build a bigger cabin .\ncam calloway , an irish trapper and woodsman raised by the micmac indians , lives in swiftwater , maine , with his wife , liddy , and his 19 - year - old son , bucky . his fondest hope is to establish a sanctuary for the great flocks of wild geese which fly over swiftwater in autumn during their southward migration . in order to purchase a large tract of land for the proposed sanctuary , cam spends all the profits from an entire season of trapping . as a result , he is unable to meet the mortgage payments on his own home , and he and his family are evicted . forced to move to the lake , they find that many of their neighbors are willing to help them build a new home . meanwhile , dell fraser , a traveling salesman , schemes to convert swiftwater into a resort for goose hunters . posing as a conservationist , dell gives cam money to plant corn which would lure the birds down during their migration . bucky learns of the plan , and cam has a violent argument with the profiteers . after cam is seriously wounded by a rifle shot , the townspeople organize a petition authorizing the federal government to buy the marshland for a sanctuary . as cam recovers from his wound , fraser and his cohorts leave town , and the dream of the calloways becomes a reality .\nhtml public\n- / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en\nurltoken\nyour social account may not have provided your email to us . please confirm or enter it below to complete your profile .\nwe found your email in our system . please provide your site password to link to your existing account .\nforgot your password ? enter your email address and we ' ll send you instructions on how to access your account .\nwe have not verified that the email belongs to you . please check your inbox for the verification email .\nto resend the verification email , please enter your email address and click submit .\ninteresting attempt by disney to make a film with more complex characters than the usual offerings by this studio . talking mainly of course about brian . . .\nleonard maltin classic movie guide , copyright 2005 , 2010 . used by arrangement with penguin group ( usa ) inc .\ntm & \u00a9 2018 turner classic movies , inc . a time warner company . all rights reserved . code of conduct for this site | press room | privacy policy | | terms of use\nsome parts of this page won ' t work property . please reload or try later .\nstory of cam calloway and his family , who live in a densely wooded area in new england . cam dreams of building a sanctuary for the geese that fly over the area each year , and he tries . . . see full summary \u00bb\nlakeith stanfield and his sorry to bother you crew reveal their most soul -

wife . \u201d\nhe has always loved the geese and hated how people could just shoot the geese . his dream is to create a sort of geese sanctuary where the geese can come down for a rest as they fly over the town and where they can be safe from hunters . the only available area where he can make the sanctuary is some unwanted marshland near a lake . the problem is it costs $ 1100 .\nthis sanctuary aspiration ( as well as the fact that he has a bit of a drinking problem ) causes conflict between him and his wife , lydia \u201cliddy\u201d calloway , played by vera miles .\n\u201csomehow i feel i should have a murdered sister near a creepy motel in this movie . \u201d\nnevertheless , cam still intends to go fur trapping and even intends to take his son bucky with him this year . they go out to do a preliminary scouting of the area they\u2019re going to trap : an area of the forest that nobody\u2019s ever trapped before because the local natives say the place is haunted with evil spirits . cam and bucky disregard this legend and end up having an accident resulting in cam breaking his leg .\nbucky rushes to town to get help from the townspeople . they manage to get cam back home and get the doctor to look at cam\u2019s leg . since cam has to rest his leg now , it\u2019s up to bucky to go and do the fur trapping himself this year .\nlet me take a minute to talk about the townspeople whom we see a lot of . they\u2019re your typical small town - type townspeople including a group of friendly old - timers . if you\u2019re a fan of old films / tv shows , you can recognize a few familiar faces . the most prevalent old - timer is a man named alf simes , played by 3 - time academy award winner , walter brennan .\n\u201cbelieve it or not , this is one of the movies that i did not win an academy award for . \u201d\n\u201chey ed , i know a man with a wooden leg named smith . \u201d \u201cwhat\u2019s the name of his other leg ? \u201d\nand even the doctor , played by frank ferguson , is better known as mr . foley from the andy griffith show .\n\u201cit\u2019s like every disney movie from the 1960s reminds you of the andy griffith show . \u201d\nthis upsets cam especially because now he can\u2019t purchase the marshland fully . however , there are two things that he can do : he can give the money to doane shattuck , his landlord , to whom he owes money . or he can use the money as a down payment on the marshland . unfortunately , he does the latter which results in his wife getting upset with him , and deservedly so .\nthis reminds me of penny chenery\u2019s decision in secretariat when she has a chance to pay off a debt , but refuses to do so and would rather put her dreams and goals before her family and reality .\nbut like penny , cam tries to find another way to pay off his debts and offers the marshland that he\u2019s put a down payment on to doane . but since the marshland is not a piece of prime real estate , doane refuses the deal .\nduring this time , a newcomer to the town , dell fraser , played by philip abbott comes into contact with cam . he expresses interest in the geese and admire\u2019s cam\u2019s sanctuary idea . he even informs cam that his boss would be willing to invest money in cam\u2019s sanctuary so that it can be set up in no time .\n\u201cwell either you are closing your eyes to a situation you do not wish to acknowledge , or you are not aware of the caliber of disaster indicated by the lack of a geese sanctuary in your community . \u201d\ncam , appreciative of the offer , agrees to this . this turns out to be a bad move as dell fraser and his boss\u2019s intentions are to win cam\u2019s trust and shoot all the geese when they land in cam\u2019s sanctuary . when cam finds out about the scheme , he gets angry at dell fraser and sets fire to the corn that he\u2019s planted to attract the geese .\nsadly , this doesn\u2019t prevent dell fraser and his boss from shooting the geese as they fly over the lake near the marshland . when cam sees this , he tries to stop them forcibly and in the scuffle , accidentally gets shot . cam is unconscious as the townspeople start to pray for him .\nthe movie ends with cam regaining consciousness , the geese stopping down in cam\u2019s sanctuary , and the townspeople unanimously signing a petition protecting cam\u2019s sanctuary from the likes of dell fraser and his boss .\ngosh\u2026this is quite a hard film to say what i think about it . the film is your typical old - fashioned homely film about a family living in a small town near the wilderness . the biggest problems that i have with this film are the length and the pacing . the film is over 2 hours long and the first half of the movie just seems to drag ! the overall film itself also doesn\u2019t seem to go at a steady balanced pace .\ni wouldn\u2019t call this a good movie , but if you\u2019re a fan of old - fashioned movies that take place in rural area , maybe you can give this one a shot .\n( you can click on the image below for an enlarged version of my rating sheet . )\nso , the final score for this film is 22 / 35 = 62 . 86 % ( d - ) !\nha . i haven\u2019t heard of this one either but your line \u201ci too am a woman of complicated morals . pancakes ? \u201d cracked me up . they certainly got a pretty good cast . it looks like the kind of movie that they play on my local pbs station on \u2018family movie night\u2019 . if i was bored i might give it a sit - through but sounds like not worth hunting down . fun review .\nyeah , don\u2019t go out of your way for it , but if it\u2019s playing somewhere , give it a shot especially if you like seeing actors / actresses from back - in - the - day .\ni wish my local pbs had a \u201cfamily movie night\u201d . i do love our local metv station which plays old shows like get smart , the andy griffith show , hogan\u2019s heroes , cheers , the bob newhart show , the adventures of superman , star trek , the twilight zone , mod squad , m * a * s * h , welcome back kotter , taxi , the adam west batman show , lost in space , bonanza , the brady bunch , gilligan\u2019s island , mary tyler moore show , emergency ! , etc .\n\u2018the andy griffith show\u2019 is awesome ! i love it to death ! i\u2019ve seen almost every episode ! i think only season 8 and some of seasons 6 & 7 i haven\u2019t seen yet .\nwhere were you when i was 14 years old to stand up against my sisters ? i told them the last 3 seasons were in color and they completely ignored me \u2013 \u201care you a dog ? \u201d \u201cthen why are you watching it ? \u201d i even remember one of them trying to moon the tv .\nit\u2019s sad that some people wouldn\u2019t watch a film / tv show or even give it a chance just because it\u2019s not in color .\nmedia junkie on lt . robin crusoe , u . s . n . \u2026\nthe animation commen\u2026 on lt . robin crusoe , u . s . n . \u2026\neric binford on lt . robin crusoe , u . s . n . \u2026\nprivacy & cookies : this site uses cookies . by continuing to use this website , you agree to their use . to find out more , including how to control cookies , see here : cookie policy\nsorry , we just need to make sure you ' re not a robot . for best results , please make sure your browser is accepting cookies .\n2018 copyright . all rights reserved . the sponsored listings displayed above are served automatically by a third party . neither the service provider nor the domain owner maintain any relationship with the advertisers . in case of trademark issues please contact the domain owner directly ( contact information can be found in whois ) . privacy policy\njermaine fowler and omari hardwick of sorry to bother you take us back in time to the worst jobs of their careers .\neach year , migrating canadian geese stop for rest in a remote vermont community . before long , hunters begin to prey on the animals , much to the chagrin of local family man cam calloway ( brian keith ) . cam , hoping to protect the geese , decides to construct a safe house for them near a large pond . he and his family move into the wilderness to build the shelter . unfortunately , he makes a powerful enemy when a businessman ( philip abbott ) tries to turn the rural town into a hunting destination .\nkeith is cam calloway , an irish trapper brought up by micmac indians . he , his wife , and de wilde , their 19 -

have movie for all disney fans , a movie that reminds us the beauty of simple life and the essential love of nature and kindness of heart . i simply cannot recommend it enough , buy it , watch it and you ' ll love it !\ni purchased this movie for one reason max steiner wrote the music score and must say he is the best ever when it comes to music in films . not like the rubbish of today that sound just like someone hitting a bin lid with a piece of wood . the movie its self is just wonderful and i rate it as 5 full stars price is very good for the type of movie it is and for family to watch again and again . i highly recommend it for picture and a good story lovely music score by max a very good print and sound , what more do you wany so go ahead and buy it and put it to your collectiom well worth keeping for future screening .\nthere are tens of disney films which are either impossible to buy or they are being sold for region 1 . it is a classic on dvd that i am happy now to keep with my collection\nthe story is set in vermont , and tells of a family ` s attempt to set up a lake sanctuary for the wild geese , which fly over their land twice a year . it ` s set ` in the olden days ` with ` townsfolk ` and ` a house - building ` etc . the men of the family trap animals for their fur , and there are some deep - snow mountain scenes . but this film didn ` t hit any of the right notes with our family , i ` m sorry to say . i ` d thought it would , being disney , and having a rural setting , but it ` s hard to say who it will appeal to . some scenes were unsuitable for the under 10s . ( geese being shot out of the air , the hero getting a bloody nose and injuries in fist - fights , and a scene where the hero , in a jealous mood , forces kisses onto the girl he fancies ) for adults the storyline is too slow . ( at least it is for this adult ) the comedy - type music which accompanies the tame grizzly bear ` s appearences suggests the story is going to be fun for children , but we found it wasn ` t much fun . imo it ` s a film for watching just the once .\nprime members enjoy fast & free shipping , unlimited streaming of movies and tv shows with prime video and many more exclusive benefits .\nafter viewing product detail pages , look here to find an easy way to navigate back to pages you are interested in .\none week away !

selling book about the mysterious and eccentric citizens of savannah , ga , is being adapted as a broadway - aimed stage musical by tony , academy and pulitzer prize - winning playwright alfred uhry .\nthe lady chablis , who was featured in john berendt\u2019s 1994 book \u201cmidnight in the garden of good and evil\u201d and the 1997 film adaptation , died thursday . she was 59 . club one , the savannah georgia venue where chablis performed her revue , posted the following message on their facebook page : \u201cthe lady chablis , who stole hearts \u2013 [ \u2026 ]\nmidnight in the garden of good and evil also contains dangerous intimations thatthe author hopes to hang on this description of savannah grander philosophical or cultural theories . the pompous tide warns of some kind of behavioural thesis , and berendt offers various meditations on the effect of geographical isolation : ' every nuance and quirk of personality achieved greater brilliance in that lush enclosure than would have been possible anywhere else in the world . '\nmany of the local people who lived the real - life events of jim williams\u2019 trial played characters and extras in the film .\n\u201cmidnight in the garden of good and evil\u201d is an outstanding lean film trapped in a fat film\u2019s body . clint eastwood\u2019s screen version of john berendt\u2019s phenomenally successful nonfiction tome , about a sensational murder case in genteel , eccentric , old savannah , ga . , vividly captures the atmosphere and memorable characters of the book . but the picture\u2019s aimless , sprawling structure and exceedingly leisurely pace finally come to weigh too heavily upon its virtues , which will likely cripple it as a significant b . o . attraction .\nyears later , jim williams and the death of danny hansford became the center of john berendt ' s best - selling book ,\nmidnight in the garden of good and evil .\nin 1997 , filming began on the movie of the same name directed by clint eastwood . many downtown locations , including the mercer - williams house , monetary square , forsyth park and bonaventure cemetery , are scenes in the movie .\nit strikes me that the audience for midnight in the garden is likely to be a small , select group , not because the film is bad , but because it demands a certain temperament to enjoy a long , unhurried experience like this . and , while the movie doesn ' t succeed in effectively developing all of the subplots and secondary themes in its complex tapestry , its main point - - that morality is a relative , not an absolute , quantity - - is presented in a striking fashion . with midnight in the garden of good and evil , eastwood has captured a peculiar yet involving slice of life .\nsavannah\u2019s most famous park was also featured in the film . the 30 - acre plot surrounds the iconic white fountain . originally built in the 1840s , forsyth park includes a cafe , walking paths and sports areas . it ' s also home to a weekly farmers market . in addition to\nmidnight in the garden of good and evil ,\nother films like\nthe longest yard\nand\ncape fear\nused the park as a filming location .\nthe movie star and director will return to film on fenwick street july 16 and 17 .\nalthough the bird girl statue is no longer located in bonaventure cemetery , this hauntingly beautiful savannah cemetery still plays a huge role in \u201cmidnight in the garden of good and evil . \u201d under the spanish moss canopy , the cemetery is rich in history and mystery along with stunning sculptures . at 160 acres , bonaventure is savannah\u2019s largest cemetery , making it an absolute must - see !\nat the beginning of \u2018midnight in the garden of good and evil\u2019 , the camera pans over songwriter , johnny mercer\u2019s grave , which is located in the bonaventure cemetery in savannah . the camera then takes the viewer to a shot of the statue known as the \u201cbird girl\u201d statue . this statue is also located in the cemetery . it is the statue that is featured on the book\u2019s cover as well as in the posters for the film . many recreations of the statue have gone up all over savannah , as well as on t - shirts .\nthe book , midnight in the garden of good and evil , is based on a true story about jim williams . of course , john berendt added and embellished to make it more exciting . mr . williams bought mercer house in 1969 after it had been vacant for over a decade . he restored it , as he did 50 + houses in savannah during his lifetime .\nperhaps no book has played more of a role on tourism in savannah , georgia than john berendt\u2019s midnight in the garden of good and evil . the southern gothic book , known simply as \u201cthe book , \u201d is based on true events surrounding antiques dealer jim williams and the murder of danny hansford in savannah . the subsequent four trials and eventual acquittal stirred up the quiet city and left a permanent impact on its legacy . today you can go on midnight tours of savannah , but it\u2019s just as easy to find the landmarks yourself .\nlady chablis , on the other hand , is very much alive and kicking throughout the novel and film .\nbookends : a focus on the statue and then minerva talking to a squirrel help frame the opening and closing of the film .\non broadway , she created the role of mrs medlock in the 3 -

smile on her face , \u2019 a pose that would grace many stages . \u201d the post added that chablis was club one\u2019s first performer when it opened in 1988 , \u201cpaving the way for female impersonation in savannah . \u201d\nmidnight in the garden would have worked better as a morality play had the\ngood\naspects of john ' s struggle been developed more fully than in a series of disjointed , uneven scenes . his love affair with alison , for example , seems almost like an afterthought , when , in fact , it ' s a critical element of his redemption . on the other hand , this movie would have been more effective as a courtroom drama / detective yarn had it cut out these subplots altogether . they slow down the pace and rob the narrative of tension . in fact , midnight in the garden doesn ' t have the right running length , regardless of what it ' s trying to do . it ' s too short for a dramatic exploration of john ' s crisis of conscience and too long for a more traditional murder mystery .\n\u201cthe lady chablis , who stole hearts \u2013 and the spotlight \u2013 in \u2018midnight in the garden of good and evil , \u2019 passed this morning surrounded by friends and family . in his best -

defense or both ? at one point , williams changes his story when he talks privately with kelso , but the visual depiction of his story in that scene doesn\u2019t quite match what he is saying . later , kelso asks williams what really happened . his question seems confusing in light of the dialogue from the earlier scene because , as far as kelso should know , williams has made a full confession to him . other scenes in the movie as well as the movie\u2019s final shot strongly suggest that the truth doesn\u2019t really matter anyway because all truth is relative . as williams tells kelso , \u201ctruth is in the eye of the beholder . \u201d such a philosophy is anti -

williams house would be used to shoot the party scenes . the fight and shooting scenes were taped in a studio in hollywood .\nequipped with a clean - cut hero , the film begins with a long meet - and -

'\nmany viewers of the popular drama , which follows the exploits of the anti - police corruption unit and also stars thandie newton and vicky mcclure , mightn ' t realise martin has a strong scottish accent .\nbut as more and more people tune in the actor says he ' s coming under increasing scrutiny .\n' the bigger this [ show ] gets the more people figure out i\u2019m scottish , and then the more they become accent detectives and they start listening , ' he said .\n' when i do the accent i tend to just stay in it . for me it\u2019s like going to the gym , the more you\u2019re in it the better you get .

its not the film ' sole survivor ' ! ! my family had a colour tv and that film was in black & white . the search goes on : = (\na bumbling us marine captain is assigned to retrieve a space capsule from a despotic african ruler .\nwhatever the name of this film is , one thing i remember is the ghosts of the departed crew being in awe of a helicopter that turns up at the crash site , with one of them remarking that it ' hangs in the air just like a bird ' or something like that . suggesting that when they died there were no helicopters in service .\nthe name of the film was sole survivor and if you go to you tube and type in sole survivor you can sit back and enjoy the movie .\nthe film in question isn ' t\nthe survivor\n( the film of the james herbert book ) . the plot for the survivor was that one man survives a plane crash ( i think totally unharmed ) and in his struggle to come to terms with this uncovers the fact that the plane was sabotaged / blown up . the twist is that he didn ' t survive . he is a manifestation of the will of all the lost souls and as soon as the truth is reveals he dies .\ni too remember a film ' sole surviver ' about a man that lost his wife and daughter in a plane accident . when he tries to investigate he is pursued by some black op federal agents . the main agent was played by billy zane . the plot was of mind control and child experiments in a secret lab where people ' s minds were remotely controlled . the pilot of the commercial aircraft purposely crashed the plane because of his mind being controlled by one of the kids . in the end the man rescues a young girl , his own daughter ' s age , who was the ' sole surviver ' of the crash . the film was a two - part tv film never reproduced for dvd or vcr . i have tried to obtain copies to no avail . if anyone does get a lead on this film and how to obtain copies , please let me now . it is an incredible film , not to be confused with ' soul survivor ' .\ni remember watching this film as well , way back in the 80s . i simply cannot remember the name of the film . however , i remember a scene from the film where a patrol came across the wreckage . all the airmen were standing to attention and then all of a sudden they realised that nobody could see them . they are all sitting around and one of time they disappeared as they were being buried . if i remember rightly , there was one guy left , i don ' t think his body was found though . damn good film , wish i could get my hands on it .\nthis page has just answered a quest i have had for over a decade - i ' ve asked all sorts , including those who title themselves film afficiondos its weird to see that so many other people have been trying to find the title of this film as well - a bit like our own episode of the twilight zone . i can rest easy now . thanks again .\ni disagree that it was\nsole survivor\n. that was a different story where a survivor of a crash became a highranking officer who had wrongly claimed that his plane had gone down in the mediterranean . the film ( definitely not a twilight zone story ) was set in the desert and consisted of the dead crew of the crashed aircraft not knowing they were dead until their colleagues suddenly began disappearing as their bodies were found . the final\nsurvivor\nwas almost left alone by the plane until his body was found and his ghost released . i still don ' t know the name of the film and would love to know it .\nsorry , dino , but the urltoken you quote is the one made in 1970 starring the same cast . ( see\nurltoken\nweb site ) however the film we are trying to find had no survivors . not a sole survivor . the film was about a crew who had all been killed in the crash and were all unknowingly ghosts around the plane . at the end of the film , all the ghosts had gone due to all the bodies being found . it certainly wasn ' t\nsole survivor\n.\nwow ! i remember this film , which i saw when it was shown on tv in the uk in the late 70s . i remember the plane ( it was a b24 or b25 ) and i remember richard basehart , recognising him from voyage to the bottom of the sea . i dont remember william shatner , which is odd as i was a real star trek fan as a young kid . i remember that one of the ghosts was not recovered . . . i think that the others had bailed out with a dingy , believing the navigator that they were over the water off the ( libyan ? ) coast . one stayed with the plane ) the pilot ? ) and had survived the crash ( the sole survivor ? ) he had taken shelter from the sun under the tail section , which broke off and crushed him . this is why the air accident investigation team didnt find his body . they couldnt understand how there were no bodies , until one of the investigators realised that the navigator ( who had survived - the other play on the ' sole survivor ' title ) had got the position wrong - but he bailed out first and survived the drop . as i recall basehart was the navigator . yes , i too wish i could get a copy !\nbill , however , is unaware of this snag until a former , elderly and wealthy resident of the establishment dies , bequeathing him the princely sum of \u00a310 , 000 in her will . long dreaming of escaping to the warm climes of the south of france from wet 1950s london , darling attempts to hand in his notice and is outraged when the manager points out that he cannot .\nsorry i too am unable to find the film or title most are looking for , black and white for sure . saw it as a kid and like the ghosts i too have been waiting ever since , best film ever .\ni was reminded of the existence of ' no secrets ' , a total turkey which inexplicably teams oliver reed , peter cushing and keenan wynn .\ni too have been trying to find this film for years - and am still confused ! i agree entirely with those that say there were no survivors , and particularly with what ray mitcham says - that is spot on . thing is i think the title was flight of the phoenix , but obviously not the film with jimmy stewart in , maybe a made for tv film with the same name ? but also - not an episode of anything , it was a full length flm . so - anyone out there know about the film ray and i are talking about !\nwow ! can ' t believe i ' ve found this thread , i ' ve wondered about this film for years . there are definitely two different films being discussed here , mind you , and the original answer to the question posed is not sole survivor . i can remember watching this film and i can also remember what it ' s called . there is a very good reason why no one can find it in any database and that ' s because it shares the name of a very famous film which will dominate any internet search results . the film is called catch 22 , not to be confused by the famous 1970 film of the same name . saw it listed sometime back so settled down to watch . of course it was the 1970 film i was watching . disappointment . hope this helps .\nthanks for all the information that has appeared here . i have also been trying to retrieve a copy of the film , and if memory serves , the title was\nsoul survivor\n, not\nsole survivor\n. this would also make more sense in light of the survival of the souls but not the actual flesh and blood crew members .\ni remember seeing a movie late one night many years ago where the crew of a ww2 american bomber are hanging around the wreck of their aircraft in the desert . every time they try to leave they always end up back at the wreck . i seem to remember too that they were very fastidious about where they left their equipment . i must have asked a hundred people if they remember the film , but no luck . this has been the only place where people have described the story the way i remember it . the film sounds like\nsole survivor\n1969 tv movie staring william shatner which used the wreck of a b25 - j mitchell bomber . i hope this is the same film your thinking of . is it available on video anywhere ?\nit ' s called sole survivor . . i remembered it as a kid . you can watch the film in its entirety at urltoken urltoken\nthere is a scene in which oskar ' s drum so confuses a nazi marching band that it switches from a nazi hymn to\nthe blue danube .\nthe crashing obviousness of this scene aside , i must confess that the symbolism of the drum failed to involve me .\nthe movie i ' m trying to find the name of is airliner crashes at airport and the pilot walks away from the crash in a daze . then end of the movie he is found strapped in his seat in the cockpit .\nit is sole survivor . i saw it once as a child and it stuck in my mind . the whole film is online here : urltoken\noh how disappointing , i was hoping there would be an answer for me here . i too remember watching this film as a child in the 1970 ' s an have been trying to find it for years . i ' ve seen sole survivor and flight of the phoenix . it is most certainly neither of these . the film i ' m looking for was black & white and the airmen did not know they were dead . that ' s the big twist at the end . i ' m fairly sure it was a feature film too , not an episode of twilight zone . it was shown on a weekend afternoon . i hope someone can get to the bottom of this one !\ni agree with the men not knowing that they are dead and remember the film as . so g in b & w ; for most of it and only being in colour at the end when the rescuers arrive and i think john wayne ' s son was in it . i so have been trying to find out the name of this film for years\nthe movie invites us to see the world through the eyes of little oskar , who on his third birthday refuses to do any more growing up because the world is such a cruel place . my problem is that i kept seeing oskar not as a symbol of courage but as an unsavory brat ; the film ' s foreground obscured its larger meaning .\nhow frustrating ! i was hoping by the time i had got to the end of the discussion that the film would have been found . i told my daughter that she must watch ' flight of the pheonix ' as i thought that it was this film , and i was so disappointed that it was the wrong film . i remember that they crashed because they thought the heat from the dessert sand was the sea , and they were trying to crash into the sea . and i remember the twist at the end being so good as i didn ' t have a clue that they were really all dead until the army came to clear the wreckage and they were invisible ghosts ! i would love to see this film again . . . has been a long time .\na sewage farm . in what way is it a farm ? is there a farm shop ?\n- jack dee\ni have just watched ' sole survivor ' on google videos and after only a few minutes realised it was crap and definitely not the film i remember . the film that was so good we were all moved by , began with the plane flying over what they think is the sea but is the rolling sands of the desert . they think they can jump out with a lifeboat . they do not know they are dead right to the end of the film , which is what makes it so good and definitely not like the weak ' sole survivor ' plot . i think it is ' flight of the ? ' because i was surprised when i discovered it wasn ' t ' flight of the phoenix ' as an adult . please stop telling those of us who have seen this amazing film , that it is sole survivor . it definitely isn ' t ! ! ! !\nthe responders with\nthe sole survivor\nas a cbs 1970 tv movie are correct . but there is a play on words in the title that nobody hit upon yet , although malcolm is close . while the cowardly navigator ( richard baseheart , in a post - voyage to the bottom of the sea role ) was the sole survivor of the downed bomber , the movie did , in fact , end with all but one of the crew - ghosts recovered ( disappeared ) . the movie did close with a scene of the remaining crewman playing baseball by himself - the sole\nsurvivor\namong the\nghosts .\nwilliam shatner , fresh from\nstar trek\nwas also in the film , as the investigating officer .\nwell , ive just watched ' sole survivor ' on dvd . its the one with william shatner playing an air force crash investigator . in this film it is clear that the crew know they are ghosts right at the start , and that its been seventeen years since the crash . the film i remember has the whole crew ( no survivors ) believing that they are still alive . it doesn ' t come to light that they are all dead until right at the end of the film when a helicopter turns up at the crash site and freaks the crew out ( no helicopters in general service at the time of the crash ) and the helicopter crew cant see the ( dead ) crewmen . there is a scene in sole survivor with a helicopter but this is half way into the film , long after the plane wreck has been found , and not the initial discovery .\ni am looking at the box of ' sole survivor ' a made for tv movie starring william basehart , william shatner and lou antonio . the synopsis reads . . . . ' shatner delivers a credible performance as lt . col . josef gronke , the head of a team of air force investigators that fly to the site of a wreck of a b - 24 bomber that crashed in the libyan desert , stunning the world with its discovery 16 years later . ' . . . . etc . the story starts with the crew awaiting rescue , not really believing they are dead . basehart is the navigator who baled out on them during an attack by fighter planes , surviving 36 hours in the waters of the mediterranean before being picked up as the sole survivor of the crew . the film was produced by cinema center 100 productions and also stars vince edwards as the major who is determined to get to the truth , which he does in the end .\nand here we are at the central problem of the movie : should i , as a member of the audience , decide to take the drum as , say , a child ' s toy protest against the marching cadences of the german armies ? or should i allow myself to be annoyed by the child ' s obnoxious habit of banging on it whenever something ' s not to his liking ? even if i buy the wretched drum as a moral symbol , i ' m still stuck with the kid as a pious little bastard .\ni am trying to name a film but no movie databases has the answer . a plane has crashed and the cast of the film turn out to be ghosts who ' disappear ' as their bodies are recovered . in the end there is one sole ' ghost ' until the searchers return and find his body under the tail plane . have i imagined this as no one seems to know what i ' m talking about ?\nthis rings a bell with me . i ' m pretty sure it was an episode of the twilight zone , though , not a film as such . if memory serves it may even have been directed by steven spielberg . the crew of us airmen had crashed their ww2 plane when a bomb got stuck in the bomb bay . they could not die properly until their remains had been found but their ghosts were accessible though some sort of time portal . the last scene was of the final guy being discovered beneath the wrecked tail plane .\nbasically the story of a man forced to finally see the injustice around him . riley\u2019s movie is designed to do the same thing to you . \u2026\nshot in zambia as some kind of vanity project on the part of the director , ( although i ' m convinced that there also had to be some kind of tax write off involved ) , this supposed comedy is utterly dismal . to give you some idea of how bad it is , the above clip is actually one of the\nthe film is sole survivor and is available on ebay , i saw it last night for the first time in about 25 / 30 years . i remembered it clearly , it ' s the kind of movie that stays in your mind . there might be a few different versions of this film around due to commercial breaks some footage may be missing in some versions . let ' s hope it will get a proper official dvd release one day , fully restored and with plenty of extras .\nroger ebert was born on this day in 1942 , and died a little over five years ago . i owe a good part of my success\u2026\ntwilight zone series 2 . episode 6a . king nine will not return . drove me mad for nearly 30yrs trying to find this . i had the memory of it but not the title . i thought it was a film too .\nthis film is not sole survivor . it was a black and white film . the crew did not know they were dead . it was only when each of them was discovered that it dawned on them and they disappeared . unfortunately there appear to be 3 films that have the same sort of plot . . . . . does anyone else remember this one ? ? ? ? ? ?\ni remember the film as well and have been trying to find the answer for years ( with no luck ) . a few more details of the film that i remember was that the crews ' only entertainment was with a baseball and glove which one of them had . i seem to remember that all the crews ' bodies were found except the captain ' s ( his body was under the plane ) leaving him ( his spirit ) all alone at the wreck . did not the film end with him playing with glove and ball on his own ? please , someone , for my sanity ' s sake , come up with the right answer ( it is not ' sole survivor ' ) .\nactually , i don ' t think little oskar is at all innocent in this film ; a malevolence seems to burn from his eyes , and he ' s compromised in his rejection of the world ' s evil by his own behavior as the most spiteful , egocentric , cold and calculating character in the film ( all right : except for adolf hitler ) .\nthis film is not currently playing on mubi but 30 other great films are . see what\u2019s now showing\ni think the film you ' re thinking of is\nsole survivor\n. the plane was an american bomber which crashed in the desert . the crew spend their days playing baseball , not realising they ' re dead , until many years later a recovery crew locates their bodies .\nit is not ' sole survivor ' . william shatner was not in it . it was filmed in b & w . ; it was not an episode of the twilight zone . please , can anyone remember the name of the b & w ; version , and stop telling us we watched shatner in a colour version ? there is obviously more than one version of this film , and i am not after ' sole survivor ' . the ' survivors ' did not know they were ghosts until they started to realise that they could not leave the area of the crashed plane . they did play with a baseball . at the very end of the film one ghost was left alone in the desert as his body was never recovered . please help ? !\nthere are more than one sole survivor movie . the film discussed here - - a b - 25 crashed in the desert during wwii with the ghosts of the crew trapped near the plane - - is definitely one of them . i worked on the movie which was directed by my friend and mentor paul stanley and featured vince edwards , richard baseheart and william shattner . it was a great experience spending a month in the desert on the el mirage dry lake bed . see : urltoken this was the first of a series of tv movies made by cbs referred to as cc100s ( cinema center / 100 minutes ) . as far as i know , it has not been released on dvd .\nthis intriguing film is called\nsole survivor\n, and was a tv movie made in 1970 , directed by paul stanley and starring william shatner . this film had\nhaunted\nme for years until i finally tracked the title down after many , many lengthy internet searches . on at least two occasions when talking about films in the pub , someone has asked\nanyone remember that film where there ' s a crashed bomber and a crew that don ' t know there dead ?\nfor many years i have searched for the title of this film as i remember watching it as a young child so it definitely left an impression on me . all i can remember is there were no survivors , it was set in ww 1 or ww 2 and was a full length movie not part of a tv series . . i cannot remember william shatner in it and i think i would have as i was a star trek fan . it was not flight of the phoenix as they survived and soul survivor indicates there was a survivor . . they played baseball to pass the time until they were rescued . it was only , many years later , one by one , when their bones were found that the men started to disappear . i remember at the end of the film there is one man playing baseball with glove and ball in hand . his body i think was never going to be found for some reason , but it is only at the end of the film that they all realise they are dead . i think maybe it has the name of the plane in the title . .\nequally shocked and outraged , bill seeks out his old chums with a plan . he ' s not spent all of the inheritance , and there ' s just about enough left to buy the hotel ' s lease - now all they must do is convince a trio of northern investors to back them with the last of the funds they require .\ni started trying to find the name of this film after seeing\nking 9 will not return\nlast night on netflix and remembered how much i enjoyed the ghost story of the bomber crew . i watched sole survivor and it is definitely not the film . another reason i know it is not , is that i saw the film in the 1960 ' s while still living at home before going off to college in 1968 . sole survivor was made in 1970 . maybe the reason it is so hard to find , is that it wasn ' t a movie . king 9 was a 30 minute ( 22 actual minutes ) tv episode . sole survivor 1 : 36 minute movie . what i remember of the film , is that it probably was a one hour tv episode . perhaps of amaing stories , scifi theatre , outer limites or some such tv series . i hope someone comes up with the one so many of us want to find . the unknowing ghosts that disappear one by one as their remains are found till only one remains .\ni am trying to name a film but no movie databases has the answer . a plane has crashed and the cast of the film turn out to be ghosts who ' ' disappear ' ' as their bodies are recovered . in the end there is one sole ' ' ghost ' ' until the searchers return and find his body under the tail plane . have i imagined this as no one seems to know what i ' ' m talking about ? | notes and queries | urltoken\ndear me ! i wish any future contributors would have a very good read of the above comments before they say anything else .\nhi everyone . i watched the flight of the phoenix recently all the way to the end hoping it was the film i remembered - waiting for the twist ! course it didn ' t happen . the description of sole / soul survivor just don ' t seem to fit in with the fact no - one was alive and the twist definitely came right at the end . i just wish i could see it again . . .\nborgnine was not , i repeat not a flight engineer in flight of the phoenix . the movie i asked about is based on the true incident which took place in the everglades in the early 1970s . i believe it also had kim basinger as a stewardess who survived the crash .\nsole survivor is indeed the film in question , although you might not recognise it from its description in most databases . they tend to emphasise the come - uppance of the now senior aviator who was responsible for the crash , rather than the more interesting supernatural aspect that everyone actually remembers the film for . any similarity to the twilight zone episode is probably down to the fact rod serling also wrote sole survivor . it ' s likely that he drew inspiration from the discovery of the crashed wwii us bomber ' lady be good ' in the libyan desert during the late ' 50 ' s .\nthe movie juxtaposes oskar ' s one - man protest with the horror of world war ii . but i am not sure what the juxtaposition means . did i miss everything ? i ' ve obviously taken the story on a literal level , but i don ' t think that means i misread the film as it stands .\nthank you one and all ! i ' ve been trying to remember the name of this film for 20 years ! have now checked ' sole survivor ' on imdb and it is the right title . excellent !\nit is not sole survivor . i remember it on tv in the late 70s , and we had a colour tv , it was black and white and the crew did not know that they were dead . i remember it being a class film , but don ' t remember the name , ghost bomber rings a bell .\nnot looking good - reply to query to the american film institute : thank you for your interest in afi . we are sorry to report that we have been unable to identify the film you described . to continue your quest , you might wish to contact the following organizations with your question : library of congress motion picture and television reading room : urltoken academy of motion picture arts and sciences margaret herrick library : urltoken the reference librarians at these organizations may be able to direct you to the film you seek . we wish you success in your search . best , the afi staff\nthe film i ' m looking for is definitely a black and white film . i have been looking for this film for years . the characters did not know they were dead . i remember my my mum jumping up saying\nthey ' re ghosts !\nalthough a lot seems similar to sole survivor , it ' s not quite right . i think there must be 3 films that we remember . i remember that someone walked away from the plane only to find themselves back where they started . i also remember they disappeared as they were found . for years i thought it was flight of the phoenix . but having watched it recently is a very different film . i ' m sure it ' s\nflight\nsomething though .\nyep , almost certain you are talking about ' sole survivor ' . a great film - and i even have a copy on vhs ! can ' t track it down anywhere else as i ' d like a ' restored ' version if possible , ah well .\nan interview with writer / director boots riley about his incendiary new film ,\nsorry to bother you .\ni saw this movie . . . i ' m also trying to figure out the name . it streams instantly on netflix , and i can ' t remember the title , but thought the ending of lost was a rip off of the plot , lol . they have a support group of the survivors and each one disappears ( evidently as their issues are resolved ) and the psychologist leading the group is the last to figure out she ' s dead too .\nthe film has been adapted by the west german filmmaker volker schlondorff from the 1959 novel by gunter grass , who helped with the screenplay . it chronicles the career of little oskar , who narrates his own life story starting with his mother ' s conception in a potato patch . oskar is born into a world divided : in the years after world war i , both germans and poles live in the state of danzig , where they get along about as well as catholics and protestants in belfast .\n1956 british comedy film about a hotel porter who comes into money . stars frankie howerd , ruby murray , dennis price , dorothy bromley , katherine kath and others .\ni can ' t believe so many other people are trying to find the name of this film . i watched this on tv about 25years ago and have always remembered it and tried to find out what it was called . it definitely wasn ' t flight of the phoenix because it is on tv at this very minute and it has prompted me to start looking again . the description of sole survivor sounds similar but i was sure that the film i saw was black and white . i definitely remember the navigator surviving because he had told the crew to bail out over the sea but in fact it was the desert and the crew haunted him when they realised they were dead . maybe there are two versions of this film , the colour one and also the older b / w one , would love to know for sure .\ni started thinking about this film after visiting a ww2 aircraft crash site in the far north of scotland ( near gairloch ) . it is a war grave , and there is still debris from the plan scattered over the hillside and the loch . but back to the film . this is what i remember . it is black and white . the crew do not know that they are dead . as their bodies are discovered , they\nvanish\n. they do play baseball , and the guy with the mitt and ball does not get found . i don ' t think it was called\nsole surviver\n, i think the title was longer and might have had the name of the plane .\nwell , having posted this query . . . and not having seen sole survivor ( or not ) i would like to thank all those looking in and who have answered my query but i still think that the answer is buried under the plane . what is driving me mad now is that i also believe it is referred to in another film , mid 80 ' s possibly , where someone says , when seeing a movie on black and white tv , ' hey , i remember this . . . the guy is buried under the tail of the plane . ' so is this a case where the film is actually sole survivor , but the on - screen reference has sown a seed that is making us all think we have seen the film . . . but with a different ending ?\ni can confirm the film is not sole / soul survivor . the original black and white film was shown in the uk pre 1968 and followed a different plot to sole survivour . the b52 and crew crash land in the desert , try to walk away but always return , try to fix the plane , then start to disappear slowly . eventualy the remaining crew think they are rescued . however the rescue party find the remaining bodies and bury the surviours - who all disappear . it is not sole survior\nincredible ! i ' ve been thinking about this film since i was a kid ( i ' m 35 now ) . i think i only caught the end of the movie and it left such an impression on me i vowed to watch the whole film one day . every now and then it would pop into my head and i would think i must try to find the name of it sometime . so , tonight finally i type in a long - shot search into google and stumble across this thread ! i can ' t believe it ! i so agree with many of you who thought this film was a figment of their imagination . what was it about this film that hooked us so much - i mean , i was a little girl , my main joy was my cindy dolls , ballet and ponies - why would a movie about war , airplanes & dead pilots leave such an impression ? ! anyway , after reading all your posts i ' ve just been on ebay and bought a copy of sole survivor . i don\u0092t know if it ' s going to be the one i remember , but i ' ll let you know when i ' ve received it and watched it - fingers crossed .\neverybody please stop trying to guess the movie if : you think it is in color or you think that william shatner is in it , because neither of those things is true . it is a black and white film , and the crew of the crashed plane don ' t ever stray very far from it , nor do i remember seeing any other characters aside from them . i also remember a harmonica being in the mix . it was a slow paced film from what i can recall . i ' m glad i ' m not alone in this , but sad we can not figure it out ! doug\nonce again , i have to disagree with both eric and steve . this is not the movie we are talking about . the film , which we are trying to trace has no survivors . the final survivor out of the crew of ghosts , appears to have been left by the\nrescuers\nbut as they drive away after apparently finding no trace of him , they find his body several miles away . this enable his\nghost\nto disappear the same way as all the others . i say again in the film we are trying to trace there are no survivors at all . all the ghosts are released from their limbo .\nif we come in armed with the grass novel and a sheaf of reviews , it ' s maybe just possible to discipline ourselves to read\nthe tin drum\nas a solemn allegorical statement . but if we take the chance of just watching what ' s on the screen , schlondorff never makes the connection . we ' re stuck with this cretinous little kid , just when europe has enough troubles of its own .\nlets just make one thing clear the film is not soul / survivor , i watched this film for which we all seek on a colour tv in either 1977 - 78 , this film was black and white end off . i remember the brilliant twist at the end and i ' ve never forgotten it , i remember one of them saying its all going dark as 1 by 1 they where found and put into body bags with 1 left behind under the tail end of the plane and i ' m sure he shouts look under the tail but obviously no - one can hear him and the crash team leave and he is left with this baseball bat and ball . it ' s haunted me for over 33 years this film and its not the bloody twilight zone either , i ' ve searched everywhere for it but seems to have vanished !\nanother voice here confirming that sole survivor is not the film that many of us are seeking . i ordered that and watched it this afternoon , and , good as it is , it isn ' t the film in which the characters gradually realise they are dead as their bodies are found . the two films are so similar , though , it ' s seems likely that they are based on the same root story .\nno answer , but it isn ' t sole survivor . i saw it many years ago but we had a color tv and it was black and white and not a tv episode but a full feature film . hope someone comes up with it because i loved the movie and would love to own it .\nthanks , ray . the film definitely has no survivors and nothing to do with a navigation error - it definitely has baseball in it and there are no survivors at the end , all the ghosts are laid to rest . please keep insisting !\nof the film . reed affects a poor american accent in his role as a bumbling us marine , ( i ' m guessing that the director would have liked to describe the character as ' clouseau - esque ' - in his dreams ) , sent to an african dictatorship to recover a crashed us satellite . he has lots of ' hilarious ' encounters with various ' wacky ' characters , played by the aforementioned actors , taking time off from their paid holiday in zambia . the ' special ' effects are anything but - the budget was clearly miniscule , the script dreadful and the direction abysmal . really ,\nan interview with terry gilliam , director of\nthe man who killed don quixote .\nthanks for your reply paul kennedy . i am not saying that you are not right , but i just want to find this film . like so many others , i have remembered watching it as a child and it never left me . some time ago i bought sole survivor and it didn ' t seem to be quite the film i remembered . as children though , i doubt that we would really know film titles . i find it hard to believe that a film can be made such as the catch 22 which you mention , and there not be one mention of it on the whole internet . so far , in my humble opinion , the most likely explanations are that we simply remember the film a little differently from so long ago , or there is actually another edit as someone has said . every version of sole survivor i have seen ( aside from the one i saw on tv as a child ) has been the u . s . version it seems . could there be a european / uk edit ? someone has mentioned on here that they have seen two versions . i have spent some time looking for catch 22 , and variants on that title , but nothing yet .\nallegories have trouble standing for something else if they are too convincing as themselves . that is the difficulty with\nthe tin drum ,\nwhich is either ( a ) an allegory about one person ' s protest against the inhumanity of the world , or ( b ) the story of an obnoxious little boy .\ni remember this film , but like so many others , do not know the name of it . i know it is not sole survivor or any other mentioned so far . this film was black and white and made in the 1960s . the story line was 6 crew members that played baseball around a crashed wwii bomber . they couldn ' t go very far away from the plane though and had to always return to it . they did not know they were dead . that was the twist , and the viewer never knew they were dead either . one by one the crew disappeared as each body was discovered until the last one was discovered under the tail of the plane ."]}

folks like vargas picked up on it - and i think any artist can still admire and learn from him today . if you can walk away from watching this without humming the bars of no foolin ' or any of the other music . . . you ' re soul is lost .\neddie cantor , rudy vallee and other ziegfeld stars appear in the story of a struggling chorus girl ( mary eaton ) .\nit would take busby berkeley to take what ziegfeld tried to do on stage to give it full expression on film . it would also take rival mgm studio to preserve the legacy of florenz ziegfeld with their films , the great ziegfeld , ziegfeld girl , and ziegfeld follies . but paramount got the real deal in glorifying the american girl as the man himself made an appearance in this early talkie . with a minor backstage plot about mary eaton who here and in real life epitomized the ziegfeld girl paramount did this film where eaton like ruby keeler in 42nd street gets to become a star , the real follies with real ziegfeld performers like eddie cantor and helen morgan made appearances . rudy vallee did appear on broadway as well , but it was for rival producer george white . other than the story line glorifying the american girl is like so many early talkie musicals just a filmed stage play . but this is a valuable historical record of what the man ' s fabled follies must have been like for theater audiences . too bad florenz ziegfeld didn ' t live another decade , he died in 1932 . had he done so he might have made a mark in film . this film done at paramount ' s astoria studio is a hint of what he could have accomplished . mary eaton herself had a most tragic life . you might remember her as the young love interest in the marx brothers debut film , the cocoanuts , also a photographed stage play . like her fellow cast member helen morgan , eaton fell pray to too much prohibition booze and her health went south . for the historically minded among us , glorifying the american girl is a valuable piece of cinema .\njoan terry , a girl from the country wants to become a broadway star , but this proves to be not so easy .\nnothing remastered here this is the same print that was available 8 years ago ! i think this is deceiving when . the film was restored , to the length of 96 minutes , with the original technicolor sequences , by the ucla film and television the back description says\ncolor | 1929 | 96 minutes\nb & w ; | 1929 | 94 minutes\nis what you get . the remastered print is still at ucla and amazon knows that ! goto youtube , search glorifying the american girl ( 1929 ) , stjn00 uploaded a actual remastered clip of the\nremastered\nversion\ndon\u2019t tell people that man is a helpless , twisted , drooling , sniveling , neurotic weakling . show the world an american kind of man , for a change .\nsome of the films from the paramount collection which have been preserved and restored by the archive include : the wild party ( 1929 , dorothy arzner ) ; morocco ( 1930 , josef von sternberg ) ; the virginian ( 1929 , victor fleming ) ; the scoundrel ( 1935 , ben hecht and charles macarthur ) ; remember the night ( 1940 , mitchell leisen ) ; high , wide and handsome ( 1937 , rouben mamoulian ) ; the moon ' s our home ( 1936 , william a . seiter ) ; road to utopia ( l945 , hal walker ) ; glorifying the american girl ( 1929 , millard webb ) .\nrand has had an enduring legacy on american political thinking . but one area that remains to be studied thoroughly in the popular press is rand\u2019s direct and indirect influence on hollywood .\nthe angry - girl zines , coming in homocore ' s wake , took advantage of an intact , politically fertile community to spread their own message . in the past two years the readership of girl zines has multiplied exponentially . this is largely due to their regular coverage in sassy magazine . five years ago , the teen - girl magazine sassy came into being , offering a far more realistic , politically risky vision of teenage life than any other magazine on the market . each issue features a\nzine of the month\ncolumn , often girl zines . with a readership around 3 million , sassy has been an effective means of spreading the word .\nthe section on glorifying depravity is particularly interesting given rand\u2019s own obsession with and glorification of serial killer william edward hickman . in the 1920s , after hickman had killed and dismembered a 12 - year - old girl , rand wrote that the murderer was a \u201cgenuinely beautiful soul\u201d who had \u201cthe true , innate psychology of a superman . \u201d but that\u2019s a discussion for another time . the entire pamphlet is a fascinating artifact of the cold war .\npretty girl is like a melody\nopens the show with badly staged fashion show representing the march of time from 1919 to 1928 . we ' re tossed right into the main theme of\nmcclure ' s messages , however , weren ' t written on a bathroom wall but in a small fanzine called my super secret circulating through the riot girl network . riot girl ( or grrrrl ) was started by a group of musicians and writers and friends who decided to aggressively co - opt the values and rhetoric of punk , 15 years later , in the name of feminism - - or as they call it ,\nthe revolution girl - style now .\nriot girl was organized in the wake of the\nangry girl\nmood , which has overwhelmed the postpunk scene in the form of confrontational female - led bands ( bikini kill , hole , babes in toyland , calamity jane ) , and a flood of fanzines by and about women ( jigsaw , sister nobody , chainsaw , girl germs , bikini kill ) . this anger didn ' t feel like a fad , it felt like hope - - compelling girls to organize weekly meetings , start calling themselves soldiers , messengers .\neven if you wear the cool clothes , you\u2019re wearing them wrong . because nobody wants to see the girl with the overlarge ass try to squeeze her way into those tight , high - waisted jeans .\nthere\u2019s a lot to like about this film , but where glorifying the american girl really excels is in its final third , that previously - mentioned lengthy stage sequence . though the extravagance is pared down slightly and a few interjections are made to follow gloria\u2019s experience with the show , this section of the film really makes the viewer feel as though they\u2019re sitting in a theater watching a ziegfeld show . the lovely music , the stunning costumes , the lavish stage decoration\u2026 if you\u2019re interested in the follies , this is a real treat . time travel isn\u2019t possible , so we can\u2019t go back and see the shows first - hand . there are other films that recreate the follies , but few seem as close to watching a real show as this one does .\nif the riot girls are grounded in the girl - punk past , they are also rooted in modern american feminism . it ' s surprising how many are daughters of 70s women ' s libbers - - and the children of divorce . for all their anger and violence , many of these girls come from nurturing , healthy mother - daughter relationships . allison wolfe of bratmobile and girl germs says ,\nmy mom ' s real cool ; she was a 60s feminist .\nd . c . riot girl organizer erika reinstein was first turned on to these ideas by reading her mother ' s books : the\nold school\nbetty friedan , gloria steinem . for christmas her mother gave her susan faludi ' s backlash .\nwhen show boat was presented in 1927 by florenz ziegfeld , it was unlike anything the great showman had yet produced . his legendary follies were really just vaudeville shows on a grand scale , featuring popular headliners of the day in unrelated scenes . legendary performers such as fanny brice , will rogers , w . c . fields and sophie tucker did their acts along side huge production numbers featuring scantily clad young women . ziegfeld was \u2018glorifying the american girl\u2019 , he claimed . he also presented light musical comedies such as sally and sunny with music by jerome kern . these were shows with wispy plots that were usually just vehicles for the star in question .\n20th century - fox gussied up its 1954 hit three coins in the fountain for the 1960s , and the result was the pleasure seekers . three american girls in search of wealthy husbands head to madrid . ann - margaret is an aspiring performer , carol lynley . . .\nas of now there are approximately ten weekly riot girl meetings nationwide , more than 20\ngirlcore\nfanzines , and bands multiplying faster than can be counted . this summer washington , d . c . , hosted the first - ever national riot girl convention with workshops in fanzine making and surviving sexual abuse , and long , drawn - out jam sessions . the members of riot girl are quite young , ranging in age from about 14 to 25 , although i once encountered a woman wearing a riot grrrl t - shirt who was at least 45 . the unofficial centers of the girl revolution are the punk - rock meccas of olympia , washington , and washington , d . c . , but the movement keeps growing and dispersing , drowning itself out then resurfacing .\nin the early part of the century , musical theater consisted of vaudeville shows , operettas imported from europe or minstrel shows . in the 1910s a new type of musical that was purely american began to be seen . jerome kern , along with lyricist p . g . wodehouse , created a string of this light , american style comedies about young people on long island estates and their love troubles . once again , wispy plots that featured amusing tunes for the stars to sing .\nwhile motion pictures have a strict code that forbids us to offend or insult any group or nation\u2014while we dare not present in an unfavorable light the tiniest balkan kingdom\u2014we permit ourselves to smear and slander american businessmen in the most irresponsibly dishonest manner .\nthe series includes anna may wong in ' ' the toll of the sea ' ' ( 1922 ) ; ' ' liliom ' ' ( 1930 ) starring charles farrell ; a 1925 ' ' wizard of oz ' ' with piano accompaniment ; ben hecht ' s ' ' specter of the rose ' ' ( 1946 ) starring judith anderson ; ' ' group theater screen tests ' ' ( 1937 ) , featuring luther adler , morris carnovsky , lee j . cobb and elia kazan ; ' ' glorifying the american girl ' ' ( 1929 ) , with helen morgan , rudy vallee and eddie cantor , and ' ' the shining future , ' ' in which frank sinatra , cary grant , bing crosby and benny goodman appear .\nthis satirical look at the ambivalent relationship between hollywood power brokers and african - american performers marked the writing , producing , and directing debut of robert townsend . the filmmaker also stars as bobby taylor , a struggling actor looking for his big break despite . . .\nthe girl revolutionaries , many of whom are too old and worldly to reasonably be called\ngirls ,\ntake this name because they remember that loud , untamed figure , because their utopia lies in the past . the bikini kill girls often talk nostalgically about an early\ngirl culture\nthat is destroyed upon contact with boys . that ' s when competition and jealousy interfere . bikini kill often chant ,\nstruggle against the j - word , killer of girl love .\nif that seems rather innocuous , more interesting is their sense that this\norganic\ngirl community allowed an unregulated sexuality .\ngirls ' first erotic experiences are usually with each other ,\nsays hanna ,\nbut we ' re taught to forget that .\nmore prudent financially ) shoot the whole film in two - strip technicolor , he and cantor brought in busby berkeley to direct the numbers ( his film debut ) and berkeley delivered a series of dazzling ensembles , many of them with the overhead kaleidoscope shots that would be his trademark throughout his career ; for glorifying the american girl director webb and his choreographer , ted shawn ( husband of modern dancer ruth st . denis and dance teacher of myrna loy ! ) , keep their cameras at a discreet distance from the action and don\u2019t move them during the number . the only time the camera goes overhead is when we least want it to \u2014 during mary eaton\u2019s big solo , when we want the camera front - and - center , astaire - rogers style , so we can see how good she is .\nted shawn is the imaginative choreographer who arranges the dancers up and down ziegfeld\u2019s stairs dressed as exotic animals , graceful swans , and art nouveau beauties clutching glass globes . shawn would create the jacob\u2019s pillow dance festival and was instrumental in forming a uniquely american branch of modern dance .\nmurray was the best known and easily the most flamboyant . several years later she would star with john gilbert in the extravagant stroheim feature the merry widow , photographed by oliver marsh . mary eaton was the star of the 1929 musical variety feature glorifying the american girl , directed by millard webb , but with the guiding hand of the redoubtable florenz ziegfeld . the great george folsey , who ended his career by teaching at the afi , photographed it . hope hampton had just recently starred in a clarence brown picture called light in the dark , and wore that film\u2019s wardrobe for the test . a french born cinematographer named alfred ortlieb , whose credits on imdb end in 1926 , photographed that film . the film was long considered lost until a near complete print was discovered in the garage of a former projectionist and was restored at the george eastman house . such are the ongoing amazing stories of discovery and digital restoration that we read about weekly . one can only wonder if movies from our own digital infancy will be so lucky .\ncuriously , as far as i can tell , she didn\u2019t sign her name to this pamphlet . the only credit is given to the motion picture alliance for the preservation of american ideals in beverly hills , california . collective credit for the work of one woman ? sounds a lot like communism to me .\ntitled the \u201cscreen guide for americans , \u201d the pamphlet was distributed in 1947 . michigan state university has a copy of the guide , which advises producers on everything from spotting communist subversion in their writers to the practical advice of how to avoid celebrating \u201cthe common man . \u201d as rand explains , glorifying \u201cthe common man\u201d is \u201ccommunist doctrine\u201d which \u201cpreaches the reign of mediocrity . \u201d i\u2019m not making this stuff up , i swear .\nfeminist\ngirl groups\n- - from early british bands like the slits and the raincoats to americans like the avengers - - are nothing new in punk . in the early 80s , bush tetras sang ,\ni don ' t want to walk out on the street no more / too many creeps ,\nand before that the slits declared ,\ni don ' t want to be no one ' s little girl .\nwomen in bands had begun using the form of punk rage for their own purposes , focusing specifically on women ' s experiences .\nsomething often left unacknowledged is that vassar students , living in close proximity to one of the fashion capitals of the world , and mostly coming from privileged enough backgrounds to buy expensive clothing , work in tandem with the fashion industry . just walk around campus and you will see any number of students wearing tommy hilfiger , calvin klein , j . crew , american apparel or urban outfitters . by glorifying and normalizing these fashion giants , vassar culture glorifies , normalizes and inherently supports an industry which perpetuates an idealized , sometimes unhealthy body type . in september , tim gunn wrote a powerful editorial for the washington post stating just as much . gunn wrote :\nunder the american system , all men are equal before the law . therefore , if anyone is classified as \u201ccommon\u201d\u2014he can be called \u201ccommon\u201d only in regard to his personal qualities . it then means that he has no outstanding abilities , no outstanding virtues , no outstanding intelligence . is that an object of glorification ?\njames stewart stars alongside judy garland , lana turner , and hedy lamarr in this musical from director robert z . leonard . telling the story of three women who jump at the opportunity to perform on broadway , ziegfeld girl has received a full - screen . . .\nriot girl olympia first met on a cold night last february when the sky was bright violet , an unreal light . girls started drifting in around six o ' clock , the room slowly filling until there were 17 , sitting on the floor , waiting for something to happen . most were dressed in traditional olympia girl - style : short - cropped dyed hair ; rumpled vintage dresses ; bright woolworth ' s lipstick . allison wolfe , coeditor of girl germs and the unofficial leader , broke the ice :\nok , i mean this meeting is really figuring out what we want riot girl to be here . it ' s a different thing in every city . i personally would like to see us rent out space and put on shows , just put on a whole bunch of shows and blow their minds .\nyes , almost everyone agrees , and we can pass out fanzines about sexism and rape small enough to fit in your pocket at the shows . men can come , but they ' ll have to wear dresses .\nit\u2019s a musical mellerdrammer starring mary eaton as gloria hughes , a young woman with aspirations to be a ziegfeld follies girl\u2026but until such a time as that dream comes true , gloria\u2019s toiling away in the sheet music department of a local department store .\neaton discovers her beau has moved on just before she goes out for the finale in the follies , and you see the emotions hit her as she struggles under the weight of an enormous headpiece that cascades around her like a fountain . ok , so it\u2019s not exactly deep , but at least she doesn\u2019t die of alcohol poisoning or get slapped around like in the exploitational ziegfeld girl .\nglorifying the american girl gives us a rare glimpse into ziegfeld ' s world of the american showgirl . we see gloria , a sheet music sales girl , yearn for the big time , and reach it , but at a cost . gloria is played by genuine ziegfeld star , mary eaton , an actress who didn ' t fare too well in real life , and died in 1948 . she was sister to both doris eaton , another ziegfeld star , and pearl eaton , who choreographed musicals at rko back in the late ' 20s and early ' 30s . gloria has a monstrous stage mother , played by sarah edwards . she says\ndammit\nseveral times during the proceedings . other cast members are edward crandall and dan healy who i believe hail from the new york stage . the\nguest stars\nare helen morgan , rudy vallee , and eddie cantor , who perform in the revue section at the end of the film . there is a completely restored version moulding away at ucla film archive , but unless you go there or to a film\nevent\nthat is featuring it , you ' ll never see it . the dvd print that is out there generally runs 94 out of 96 minutes and presents the revue section in black - and - white instead of two - color technicolor . the early sections of the film are rather sharp in clarity and contrast , with the black - and - white versions of the color footage grainer and less sharp . it ' s still an enjoyable film for buffs even in it ' s public domain version . the upside is that it is not at all expensive like , say , on with the show , a 1929 warners technicolor film which also exsists only in black - and - white , and coming from warner archive is considerably pricier . it won ' t be everyone ' s cup of tea , but it ' s fun for us buffs , and a bargain , at that .\nd . c . riot girl started in the summer of ' 91 , shortly before hanna and bikini kill migrated there . it ' s a younger , more racially diverse group than olympia riot girl , with most of its members in or just out of high school . maybe because the meetings are now led by the emotional cyclone of hanna , they tend to be more personal , less about political organizing : at one meeting a series of girls came out , and at others discussions have involved the members ' feeling , as do many 16 - year - old girls , like they are disappearing .\nonly savages and communists get rich by force\u2014that is , by looting the property of others . it is a basic american principle that each man is free to work for his own benefit and to go as far as his ability will carry him ; and his property is his\u2014whether he has made one dollar or one million dollars .\nif the girl revolution expresses itself in ear - splitting noise , it also happens through writing . girl fanzines , or zines , are time bombs disguised as thick letters . they come with titles like g - force , fantastic fanzine , chainsaw , sister nobody . they are crazy mishmashes of politics , scene reports , top - ten lists , love and hate mail , blurry photographs . all across the country , girls wait to hear from the fanzine network , a phantom community they belong to but never see - - it ' s an underground with no nucleus , built of paper .\nmary eaton is a chorus girl with an internal struggle : does she want the love of edward crandall or the love of teeming millions as she performs in the ziegfeld follies ? the thin plot line is really just an excuse for the production numbers , songs , and sketches contained in this film , along with eddie cantor ' s marvelous tailor bit , and a host of celebrity . . . read more\namerica is the land of the self - made man . say so on the screen .\nafter their zine was reviewed in sassy , molly and allison of girl germs say their mail multiplied overnight :\nwe couldn ' t keep up with it . . . . we got hundreds of letters from teenage girls across the country .\nthe same happened when riot girl was covered there , and bikini kill . one of the most common sights in the apartments of fanzine makers now is piles of letters , often written on pink , flowery stationery , with circles or hearts dotting the i ' s .\ni want to start riot girl in my town ,\nthey write from oklahoma , nevada , alabama .\nyour zine changed my life .\none fan writes ,\ni want to start a band now . since i can ' t really scream in my house , i know i belong on a stage .\nthese girls might be sleeping in canopy beds , but they dream of starting a hardcore band .\nit\u2019s nice to hear mary eaton speak frankly to her boyfriend ( a dreamy edward crandall ) about wanting to live a little and see what she can do before settling down and raising children . he\u2019s visibly hurt , but not petulant or insulting ( like every boyfriend / husband in ziegfeld girl and the dolly sisters ) . he does wait for her and seems genuinely supportive of her success\u2026 , but eventually settles for available girl - next - door gloria shea \u2014 who actually is treated pretty badly by the film : abandoned and hit by a car ! that\u2019s what chasing love gets you\u2026 .\nmarrs was also one of the first women to organize collective punk girl activities in olympia . her girl city store was a punk - rock collective where women sold clothes and artwork . her remarkable 1986 performance piece 50 girls 50 states , in which , she says ,\ni assembled 50 women and told them to make dresses based on a given state and the idea of world peace ,\nwas a twisted beauty pageant , a punk debutante parade , where all girls in outlandish dresses marched down the streets of olympia . one attendee said the spectacle was like a combination\npolitical march and craft show .\nthe proceeds from the reception afterward went to safeplace , a rape - relief shelter . yet although she has been active in the community for years , marrs , like many of the older women i spoke with , is suspicious of the hard - line ideologues of the girl revolution . she feels they may be taking their power for granted .\nit ' s all gaining momentum so fast . but they don ' t realize how long it has taken . how hard it was .\nhere the revolution girl - style becomes a revolution not about spiritual freedom but about bodily freedom . when 424 women are raped in the united states each day and roughly half of those are under 19 , it seems a logical focus for any feminism , particularly a youth movement . for the riot girls , the new world might be nothing more than a world where they can walk down the street at night , as far as they want , even into the early hours of the morning .\nduring his great communist witch hunt of the 1940s and 50s , congressman joseph mccarthy infamously turned his eye to hollywood . mccarthy sought to purge tinseltown of any possible speck of pinko influence . and an organization of conservative activists known as the motion picture alliance for the preservation of american ideals was more than happy to name names of alleged communists working in hollywood and provide any other assistance necessary . they even had rand write up a guide for the movie industry .\nolympia is an important stop on the underground , the birthplace of that quickly evolving cliche , the seattle scene . sub pop and nirvana both have their spiritual roots here . it ' s also home to the dedicated indie label k records , run by candice pedersen and calvin johnson , who ' ve been instrumental in encouraging girl bands . in the summer of ' 91 k hosted the week - long international pop underground convention . more than 50 bands came from all over the world , overrunning the town . the waitresses at the local diner were ruined , serving one table of broke , elated kids after another . the quiet sidewalks were suddenly crowded ; people sat out on curbs and wandered in front of traffic , trying to find friends or idols . the convention opened with girl day , an event allison wolfe and molly neuman , the editors of girl germs , like to call\nprdct ,\npunk rock dream come true . for one night , only girls took the stage : kreviss ( eight ragged girls playing electric guitars ) , jean smith , seven year bitch , rose melberg of tiger trap , members of bikini kill , one after another . tracy , of the band heavens to betsy , who played their first show that night , said breathlessly ,\nit was the most incredible thing in the world .\nmany riot girls see that night as a kind of beginning .\nit is true that there have been vicious congressmen and judges , and politicians who have stolen elections , just as there are vicious men in any profession . but if you present them in a story , be sure to make it clear that you are criticizing particular men\u2014 not the system . the american system , as such , is the best ever devised in history . if some men do not live up to it\u2014let us damn these men , not the system which they betray .\namong a host of treasured american feature films and esteemed documentaries considered for the 2012 registry of the national film preservation board , there is an unlikely hopeful : a film test . it was made in 1922 at the paragon studios in fort lee , new jersey , a decade after d . w . griffith and his cinematographer billy bitzer had migrated to los angeles . ( update : the test was in fact included in this year ' s registry , announced on dec . 19 ) .\nthe girl revolution looks back to a peaceful female prehistory ; they romanticize the past , much like some new - age goddess groups . yet there ' s another quality of this vanished girl that comes across , most strikingly in the performances of bands like bikini kill , hole , and babes in toyland , and that ' s the inherent anarchy of little girls . when kat bjelland of babes in toyland , wearing a sweet velvet dress , sings ,\nvomit my heart / pull my legs apart ,\nshe seems both to be reviving that anarchy and bringing to it an immense exhaustion . it has taken a long time to return to this first self and discover not an innocence but a violated , tantrum - throwing , terrifying girl hero . she is as far from the self - sacrificing , nurturing woman as you can get , and she implies that beneath this daylight woman ' s surface there is another dark , powerful life . the riot girls refuse to cross the threshold into womanhood and lose that ferocious child . they don ' t want her to recede . they want her to ascend .\nis a major piece of american social history \u2014 not only because it was the only film ziegfeld actually produced himself ( more or less ) but also because it\u2019s a marvelous fragment of the 1920\u2019s spirit , finished just before the stock market crash and thereby reproducing the devil - may - care zeitgeist of the pre - depression era . a newspaper clipping informs us that the price of a ticket to the ziegfeld show that gives the film its name is $ 25 \u2014 in 1929 dollars ! apparently broadway tickets aren\u2019t really any more expensive now , when you adjust for inflation , than they were then . \u2014 8 / 21 / 96\nmarilyn miller was not the star of this film . marilyn miller was a beautiful tall , leggy showgirl who was broadway ' s brightest star of the 20s . she was in\nsally\n,\nsunny\n- she also filmed them in 1929 and 1930 . the star of\nglorifying the american girl\nwas mary eaton . mary eaton was picked by ziegfeld in the 20s to be the successor to marilyn miller ( because miss miller was getting uppity . ) she replaced miss miller in\nkid boots\nwith eddie cantor . mary eaton , in my opinion , couldn ' t hold a candle to marilyn miller . i think mary eaton was showcased far better in\nthe cocoanuts\n( 1929 ) . i loved this film because this is my era - i feel so at home watching musicals and movies from the late 20s , early 30s - the songs are so catchy . i loved the start as it showed girls from all over america walking to broadway and instantly went into mary eaton singing\nno foolin '\n. i also liked olive shea - i was glad when she got her\nbuddy\n- she seemed quite a natural actress . i didn ' t particularly like mary eaton - she didn ' t seem very starry eyed - she came across as tough and jaded . helen morgan ' s song i loved but i also thought eddie cantor ' s skit went on far too long .\nthe flicker could also have been made by the conveyance technology employed in the coating machines at the time - the use of festoon loop sticks . early coating machines conveyed the coated film by the use of these long sticks that supported the film and the sticks were driven by chain drives on each side . the film hung over the sticks and where the stick contacted the base side of the coated film , the film ' s thickness - and thus density , could be slightly altered . after processing , that would result in a flicker .\nas nirvana goes number one , some believe that boy punk is dying as an underground and the girls are rising out of their ashes . independent labels ( and majors too ) are scrambling to sign girl bands , and it ' s getting harder to find a show without a woman somewhere in the lineup . yet it has taken years for it to be possible for a contributor to write , in girl germs , no . 3 :\ni hear these girls , girls i don ' t know , girls i have never met , make these same promises and these same threats . they speak to me and i speak to you and i know our time has come .\nyet as the riot girls guard their integrity ,\npurifying\nthemselves against a sick society , they also isolate themselves . everyone in the embassy living room is white , as are most of the riot girls . most come from upper - or upper - middle - class backgrounds . like a religious sect , they huddle together , superior to the rest of the world but also somewhat afraid of it . glorifying\nyouth rebellion ,\nthey sometimes will themselves into a comforting naivete . while the riot girls talk in a cursory way about branching out , they haven ' t . and until the riot girls address the socioeconomic basis of their movement - - the way their somewhat privileged lives have given them the time and the freedom to express their rage , have given them enough economic power to desire other types of power - - their force will be limited .\nmooney ' s a girl who sings & dances . miller ' s a guy who dances , jokes , sings . the act is very cute , especially when they sing\nspooning with the one you love .\nbut they don ' t get along with each other off stage , & miller pretty much railroads the young woman ( kaye renard ) constantly assuring her he can always find another hoofer & call her mooney .\nbelow i\u2019ve pulled some of the most interesting quotes from the document . the emphasis in bold is entirely rand\u2019s .\n# # # the history of sound at the movies the inclusion of sound at the movies was one of the most dramatic changes in all of film history . dive into the early experiments of edison trying to incorporate sound from film ' s inception , through the experiments in the early 1920s , the jazz singer and . . . more\nthe riot girl manifesto ( a rushed , two - page document that ' s constantly being revised ) declares\nwe seek to create revolution in our own lives every day by envisioning and creating alternatives to the bullshit christian capitalist way of doing things .\nthey urge their members to\nresist psychic death\nand\ncry in public .\ntheir goals include getting\nall girls to be in bands\nand making it so\ngirls rule all towns .\nthey teach each other to play guitar or drums , talk and write about sexism , even encourage women to arm themselves . riot girls are often accused of being separatist : they want to form a life away from men and invent\ngirl culture .\nthe greatest cable channel known to mankind\u2122 rolled out a righteous premiere on the first day of the new year : the joseph losey -

proclaimed movement of very young , very angry women discovering their own power through frenzied productivity : fanzines , music , public - access shows , performance events . they meet in massachusetts , new york , pennsylvania - - in apartments , rock clubs , cluttered kitchens , pink bedrooms . riot girl olympia meet sundays in a white apartment - house laundry room , usually in the late afternoon . the world they are trying to change right now is the world of olympia , an isolated small town with one main street , a few wide , clear alleys perfect for graffiti (\nyour desires are reality\n) , a theater where movies are always a dollar . the bars are full of quiet regulars , who occasionally start short - lived , halfhearted brawls .\nremember that america is the country of the pioneer , the non - conformist , the inventor , the originator , the innovator . remember that all the great thinkers , artists , scientists were single , individual , independent men who stood alone , and discovered new directions of achievement\u2014 alone .\nthe cakewalk performed by ellie and frank is also danced to an authentic song of the period , goodbye , ma lady love . the dancing is staged in such a way as to recall the style of the minstrel shows that would have been current at the time the movie is depicting .\nthe black widow ( 1947 ) \u2013 chapter 2 : the stolen for . . .\nglorifying the american girl\nis an extremely dated film and it comes off as very quaint and old fashioned . the audio quality varies widely and is , at times , almost incomprehensible . in addition , the original two - color technicolor sequences are gone - - faded over time . it ' s a darn shame the film is in this condition and i ' d love to see it restored someday . the first 2 / 3 of the film is a story about a woman who gets a dance partner and sets off for the stage . her boyfriend is left alone . . . . waiting and hoping for her return . as for the dreams of success , it doesn ' t come quickly and the lady has a serious problem with her sleazy partner . however , with hard work she ' s discovered by the folks at the ziegfeld follies and she ' s about to become a star . now because she isn ' t available back home , her boyfriend slowly drifts away and falls for a co - worker . by the end , the lady is a star and the show is a success . . . but she ' s alone and so ends the picture . the final 2 / 3 is the big show and you get a chance to see one of ziegfeld ' s shows filmed and shown to a wider audience . i was a bit surprised as the routines were a lot rougher and less amazing than they ' d be portrayed over a decade later in\nthe great ziegfeld\n- - which isn ' t surprising as this biopic seemed to have little to do with the man anyway . in addition , you hear rudy vallee and helen morgan sing as well as a very stereotypically jewish comedy routine with eddie cantor . it ' s a shame , however , that you don ' t get to hear cantor sing in the film , as i loved his clever songs in his other films . all in all , if you can get past the rough condition of the film , it gives you a rare peek at a bygone era - - like a time capsule . rough but full of energy and fun - - mostly for fans of early films and historians but still might be of some interest to the average person if they give the film a chance . while it is very dated , for 1929 it was a heck of a picture - - hence my relatively high rating .\nas magnolia\u2019s performing career on the cotton blossom itself blossoms , we get to see many of her performances . the scene between the school teacher and her beloved hamilton is an affectionate depiction of what types of melodramas were being performed in the days of the cotton blossom . the histrionic acting and overheated dialogue seem right . the audience\u2019s reaction confirms this . the humor of the scene comes not from the film\u2019s condescension to the play , but to the woodsmen\u2019s reaction \u2013 their belief that reality is happening on stage . the play itself is performed almost in documentary fashion .\nrecently psychologist carol gilligan , author of in a different voice , published a ground - breaking study of young girls that concluded that as they enter the\nfeminine role ,\nsomewhere between the ages of 11 and 13 , their confidence plummets . sensing the violence and injustice there , many girls derail on the verge of entering society . brash and self - assured at 11 , they become shy and insecure , even self - destructive . they feel the new limits drawn around their bodies . what ' s interesting about gilligan ' s study is not so much her evocation of the familiar image of the masochistic teen as that earlier wild and unafraid girl who disappeared .\nthe paramount holdings at the ucla film & television archive include the entire studio output from the coming of sound in the late 1920s to 1948 . in many cases these studio prints are the best , or only , available materials for preservation . paramount features and shorts have been at the forefront of the archive ' s preservation program and the archive staged a major retrospective of paramount titles in 1987 .\n- all films -

( and how - this was filmed in calgary . )\nthree aliens from the planet taros land on earth and are befriended by a wyoming rancher ' s son .\nrobin and tavvy are two children from a humanoid alien people who have established a base on the moon . they decide that they don\u0092t like merely watching earth at a distance and maintaining the cultural quarantine that their people insist on . and so they run away to earth with their three - limbed pet . landing in rural wyoming , they are befriended by a teenage cowboy robert \u0091dirt\u0092 mcalphen and his grandfather .\nthree aliens from the planet taros land on earth and are befriended by a wyoming rancher & apos ; s son .\nback in space , the hyper sapiens decide that the girls need to be brought back to the mother ship since they refuse to return on their own . . . the primped out leader gets big and lectures the earth .\nrosie marcel , the only british actor in the film , would later go on to star as one of tv ' s most disliked characters , jac naylor , in holby city ( 1999 ) .\ntrippy indie madeline ' s madeline is the movie that lakeith stanfield and boots riley from sorry to bother you want to see the most .\na farmboy tries to help two cute little aliens who are running away from home . much less cute big aliens chase them all over wyoming .\nis for parents wishing to park their children for an afternoon . it is so lacking in any distinguishing or standout qualities it can safely be forgotten the moment people have reached the parking lot on the way home .\ndirt has to go out and find the girls some undies , so , he steals some from his female neighbor . needless to say , one of my favorite parts !\ndirectors of james bond movies rarely have prolific or memorable careers outside of the franchise ; peter hunt ( of on her majesty ' s secret service ) is no exception . with hyper sapien , he has made a competent film whose only ambition is to be gentle and sweet with little in the way of plot or ideas to get in the way of those goals . i\u2019m not sure if small children would be bored by it , but i definitely was . the most memorable aspect of the movie is the bittersweet fact that it contains keenan wynn\u2019s final performance , which isn\u2019t nearly enough to make this slog worthwhile .\nimpossible - to - dislike e . t . / starman hybrid set in pastoral wyoming , directed by a bond guy & bankrolled by jason schwartzmann ' s parents . charming kid actors , great turn from keenan wynn as\ngrandpa\n. . . its refreshing to watch a film about fundamentally nice people . good saturday afternoon movie . make sure 2 check 4 the unreal alien dog puppet who spins like sonic the hedgehog and has a triad of buttholes for a face .\ncorny family movie about two big - haired alien girls who come down to earth to check things out . sydney penny is ok as the older , teen alien but ricky paull goldin is a typical vacuous 80 ' s pretty - boy with over - styled hair . the creature sidekick is almost as annoying as jar - jar and keenan wynn plays yet another daffy old guy character . overall , it ' s a technically decent production without much imagination .\ndidn ' t see it then though , likely because the video movie guide probably gave it a turkey . i might sometimes look back on that annual tome as being simplistic and quaint in our spoiled internet age , but it did mark a big shift in the way i anticipated movies , from childlike , uncritical\u2026\nthis wasn\u2019t that bad of a movie but it could have been better . the acting was pretty decent . i really liked keenan wynn ( grandpa ) and his interaction with kirbi . the plot was somewhat basic but i thought the underlying theme about the young leading people into the future was pretty well written . i also thought the overzealous cop thinking the aliens were assassins after the senator was really funny . kirbi was definitely one of the more interesting aliens to show up , being a three eyed , three legged creature that runs by cartwheeling really fast , eats coal and drinks gasoline , and can shoot lasers from his eyes . the chase scene with kirbi shooting at the cops was pretty funny . nothing really groundbreaking but worth a watch if nothing else is on .\nif it ever came to interacting with aliens on my part , i would wait for them to contact me instead of being the one to initiate contact - i learned from sources such as the war of the worlds that even a peaceful gesture such as a white flag could be misinterpreted , or the aliens may just be mean bastards at heart . you may now be asking that if aliens did make the first gesture - and it appeared to be a peaceful one - what would i do if i was the one that they made the gesture towards ? well , i admit that since i am a very curious person , i would be very interested in the idea of direct contact with the inhabitants of another world . but even then , would a human be able to relate to an alien ? for that matter , would an alien be able to relate to a human ? just think about it for a minute . for one thing , evolution on their planet would almost certainly mean that the aliens would not look like human beings . well , it could be argued that there are plenty of human beings that have been able to relate to their pets despite looking very different . and the aliens , since they have the technology to travel to other planets , would have the extra advantage of being intelligent - making it a lot easier to communicate with . let ' s say that human beings and aliens would be able to relate to each other on a fairly easy level . could this eventually lead to something more ? i ' m talking about two different species falling in love with each other . hollywood has tackled this topic several times , but when you look at this topic in stuff like star trek , you will see that the humans and aliens look pretty similar . it ' s not that far removed from interracial dating .\nthe film movie had it ' s moments of being okay ( from adult perspective ) and i ' m sure if i watched this one as a kid i would have liked it . actually i ' m surprised i ' ve never seen this one before but then again i was 14 in 1986 and this film is geared for a younger than 10 years old audience i believe .\nhoping to find evidence that earthlings aren\u2019t as bad as the rest of the solar system believes , extra - terrestrial sisters robyn and tavy jump ship in wyoming accompanied by a super - intelligent fuzz ball named kirbi . befriended by a teenage cowboy , they work to save a beautifully photographed natural landscape under threat from developers in this delightful interstellar family adventure with a still -

culture humour , as is the case with many other films of this ilk . all of the kids play competently , with neither an overkill of saccharine or knowing cynicism . however , the treatment remains strictly middle of the road and eminently forgettable . under a more lively director , the basic premise could have amounted to something \u0096 imagine how much fun the idea could have been in the hands of a director like robert rodriguez or joe dante . alas , handled by john schultz , it amounts to no more than a school holiday season junk food snack .\nas a talia shire fan , i was disappointed to note she only had a cameo in this production . however , she has executive - produced by her company taliafilm . ltd . , this tale of aliens that look like humans coming down to our planet earth and checking to see if it benefits their species to live . the tale is told from the point of view of 2 alien girls and the new human friend they find in a boy , who along with his male guardian , welcome them to this world and let them experience living as we do . this film is best suited to young children and those viewers whose interests lie in the extra - terrestrial .\nnot only have i seen this movie twice , i was in the right place at the right time and saw several scenes as they were filmed , as a few scenes were shot right here in calgary , alberta , canada . most of the movie was shot west of the city in kananaskis country . i thought it was a great movie and i really liked kirbi with three eyes and three arms . i also liked the scene where we saw an eagle flying . . . . from their perspective , in other words , through their eyes . . . . that was pretty cool . all in all it ' s a great family movie , now if i could only find it on d . v . d .\nsome parts of this page won ' t work property . please reload or try later .\nwant to share imdb ' s rating on your own site ? use the html below .\ndirt wakes up early morning then looks like he ' s talking on a ham rig . then records the time stating ' it ' s 3 : 00 a . m . in london . assuming pst , that would be 7 : 00 p . m . in wyoming .\nbest of the worst : the vindicator , cyber tracker , robot jox , and r . o . t . o . r .\nwith jurassic world : fallen kingdom now in cinemas , we take a look at how imdb users rated the films of the franchise . plus , browse exclusive lego\u00ae jurassic world playsets , presented by lego .\nexplore popular and recently added tv series available to stream now with prime video .\nhtml public\n- / / w3c / / dtd html 4 . 01 transitional / / en\nin a number of my past reviews , i have touched on topics that are more fantastic in nature than usual . these fantastic topics have been stuff that i have observed in various movies over the years , fantastic things like ghosts , vampires , and zombies . in these past reviews where i have discussed such things , i have generally stuck to discussing as to their possibility of really existing , and if i personally believe that they could exist . this includes the topic of aliens , which i last discussed in my review of evil aliens . what i have not discussed , however , when it comes to topics such as aliens , is how i would personally react if i came face to face with one of these fantastic creatures . well , if it was a zombie , i would simply walk away - they would be too slow in their shuffling to catch up with me . if it were a vampire , i would make a cross with my index fingers and shove it in the vampire ' s face . but what about aliens ? what would i do , for example , if i were to get up one morning , open the curtain , and see that a flying saucer had landed next to my building ? well , i would wonder how such a large craft would be able to land smoothly in my densely - packed neighborhood . seriously though , i am pretty sure i would be seriously freaked out . i would probably immediately drag out a suitcase , quickly pack it , and get out of the area right away . while it ' s true that at that point there would be nothing indicating that the occupants inside the craft had done anything bad , there would also be no indication that they would be good in nature as well . better safe than sorry .\nthe screenplay does later try to explain their motivations for running away to earth , but the explanations will likely sound hollow to even the smallest viewers . would children believe that a couple of minors would\nin order to enjoy stuff they have observed on earth radio and television signals , with what they ' ve seen being stuff like mtv and ronald mcdonald ? i didn ' t buy it . also , i did not buy the fact that once they are on earth and start traveling through the wilderness , it is revealed they ran away with no definite plans as to how they would eat , find shelter , and make a living . and while these sisters are two characters , the screenplay only seems to have material for the older robyn character and doesn ' t seem to know what to do with the younger tavy character ; in fact , the screenplay seems to realize this towards the end , writing out tavy completely and not having her participate in the climatic action . by the way , it ' s a wonder when the action does start to come , because after the beginning when the two sisters land on earth , practically\nhappens for the next hour . not just practically nothing that advances the story , but practically nothing that is exciting , intriguing , or full of wonder or awe . the movie has a premise , but doesn ' t have any idea as to what to do with it except for throwing in a police chase near the end , and that ' s resolved with a feeble\ngesture . it should probably come as no surprise then , that the movie ' s three credited screenwriters not only had no previous screenwriting credits , but they never had any other credits as of this date . i wonder how they managed to sell this asinine script . if you ' ve been as unfortunate to have seen\nhtml public\n- / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en\nurltoken\nyour social account may not have provided your email to us . please confirm or enter it below to complete your profile .\nwe found your email in our system . please provide your site password to link to your existing account .\nforgot your password ? enter your email address and we ' ll send you instructions on how to access your account .\nwe have not verified that the email belongs to you . please check your inbox for the verification email .\nto resend the verification email , please enter your email address and click submit .\n. . . . . production company , angels the costumiers . . . . . production company , optical film effects . . . . . production company , . . . . . production company , tristar pictures . . . . . domestic theatrical distributor , . . . . . foreign distribution sales , vestron video . . . . . domestic video distributor , . . . . . public relations\nleonard maltin classic movie guide , copyright 2005 , 2010 . used by arrangement with penguin group ( usa ) inc .\ntm & \u00a9 2018 turner classic movies , inc . a time warner company . all rights reserved . code of conduct for this site | press room | privacy policy | | terms of use\nget ready for prime day with the amazon app . no purchase necessary . learn more\nmaybe not the greatis story line ever , but i ' ve many times and i ' m sure i will many more times .\ni thought it was a great movie and i really liked kirbi with three eyes . . .\ni got this as part of a sci fi mega pack . the story didn ' t have a whole lot of twists and was quite et like . the tri -

bearing protein in red blood cells that delivers oxygen to tissues throughout the body . reduced blood cell volume ( hematocrit ) is also considered anemia . the reduction of any or all of the three blood parameters reduces the oxygen -

third of the body ' s blood volume in the space of several hours can be fatal . more gradual blood loss is less serious , because the body has time to create new red blood cells to replace those that have been lost .\nsurgery may be necessary to correct blood losses caused by injury or hemorrhage ( nose bleeds , aneurysm , cerebral hemorrhage , bleeding ulcer ) or childbirth . transfusions of packed red blood cells or whole blood may also be used to replace blood volume and to stimulate the body ' s own production of red blood cells . medication or surgery may also be necessary to control heavy menstrual flow or to remove polyps ( growths or nodules ) from the bowels .\naplastic anemia . aplastic anemia is a serious form of anemia that can lead to death . the body makes too few of all kinds of blood cells : red blood cells , white blood cells , and platelets ( pronounced plate - lits ) . platelets are blood cells that help blood to clot . aplastic anemia may be caused by a recent severe illness , long - term exposure to industrial chemicals , and the use of certain types of medication .\nai / acd typically develops slowly and , because it is usually mild , may cause few or no symptoms . sometimes , ai / acd can cause or contribute to fatigue , weakness , pale skin , a fast heartbeat , shortness of breath , and exercise intolerance .\nevery time a person gets a blood transfusion , their risk for a problem called \u201calloimmunization\u201d goes up . alloimmunization happens when a person\u2019s body reacts to blood from a transfusion because it is seen as harmful by their immune system , and tries to destroy it . persons with alloimmunization can still receive blood transfusions , but the blood they receive has to be checked and compared to their own blood to make sure that it won\u2019t be destroyed by their immune system . this takes time and can mean that persons with alloimmunization have to wait longer for blood , or may have a harder time finding blood that won\u2019t be destroyed by their body .\nanemia is a condition characterized by abnormally low levels of healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin .\nanemia is caused by a deficiency in the intake and absorption elements required to make red blood cells . the condition is defined as one in which the blood is deficient in red blood cells , in hemoglobin , or in total volume . this results in blood that is incapable of meeting the oxygen needs of the body ' s tissues . anemia is characterized by changes in the size and color of red blood cells . red blood cells , or erythrocytes , are primarily responsible for oxygen transport from the lungs to the body ' s many cells . hemoglobin is an oxygen - carrying protein in the red blood cell that incorporates iron into its structure . therefore , iron is an essential building block of blood erythrocytes . when red blood cells are larger than normal , the anemia is termed macrocytic , and when they are smaller than normal , it is called microcytic . normal red cell color is termed normochromic , and if the red cells appear pale , the anemia is called hypochromic . when extensive lab testing is not available for diagnosis , the use of a portable colorimeter can be used to detect anemia .\ngrok this : what if the world were an orange\u2013a blood orange\u2013and there were citra and amarillo hop cones orbiting all around it , with just a dusting of blood orange peel , and it was all , like , an atom ? heavy , right ? well dig this : just to keep things a little blurred around the edges , the mad chemists at elysian brewing have come up with superfuzz blood orange pale ale . it\u2019ll be available at groovy taverns , restaurants and stores beginning april 1 in six -

rith - ro - po - ee - tin ) . this protein is secreted into the blood , which then signals the bone marrow to make more red blood cells .\nred cells contain a special protein called hemoglobin , which helps carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body and then returns carbon dioxide from the body to the lungs so it can be exhaled . blood appears red because of the large number of red blood cells , which get their color from the hemoglobin . the percentage of whole blood volume that is made up of red blood cells is called the hematocrit and is a common measure of red blood cell levels .\nsome have theorized that bella ' s blood smelled better than other humans ' blood , but in the book , bella was only edwards\nsinger\n( the one person whose blood smells exceptionally good to him ) . so unless bella ' s blood was exceptionally tasty - smelling to all vamps , there ' s still no reason jasper should have freaked out so epically . . .\ntheories on what happened in old yharnam and on the identity of the blood - starved beast .\nthe process through which new red blood cells are created ; it begins in the bone marrow .\nproduction of red blood cells is controlled by erythropoietin , a hormone produced primarily by the kidneys . red blood cells start as immature cells in the bone marrow and after approximately seven days of maturation are released into the bloodstream . unlike many other cells , red blood cells have no nucleus and can easily change shape , helping them fit through the various blood vessels in your body . however , while the lack of a nucleus makes a red blood cell more flexible , it also limits the life of the cell as it travels through the smallest blood vessels , damaging the cell ' s membranes and depleting its energy supplies . the red blood cell survives on average only 120 days .\nwhen a child exhibits weakness , dizziness , listlessness , or fatigue , it may be the first sign of anemia . the pediatrician should be consulted if the child is also extremely pale or has little or no color in the gums , nail beds , creases of the palm , or lining of the eyelids . any prolonged bleeding or sudden blood loss requires examination by a physician and testing for anemia .\nit could also be that the ashen blood started poisoning everyone in old yharnam and the healing church used a massive amount of blood to counterattack this sickness , making the scourge grow exponentially in the city .\nhemolytic anemia is a type of anemia in which the red blood cell has a shortened lifespan ( normal lifespan is 90 - 120 days ) . because the bone marrow is not able to compensate by producing more red blood cells , anemia results . abnormalities in the red blood cells may be intrinsic or may be caused by environmental factors such as auto - antibodies to red blood cells or damage from chemotherapy .\n[ 63 ] tam\u00e1s kende , v\u00e9rv\u00e1d ( blood libel ) , budapest 1995 , p . 135\u2013156 .\nunlike red and white blood cells , platelets are not actually cells but rather small fragments of cells . platelets help the blood clotting process ( or coagulation ) by gathering at the site of an injury , sticking to the lining of the injured blood vessel , and forming a platform on which blood coagulation can occur . this results in the formation of a fibrin clot , which covers the wound and prevents blood from leaking out . fibrin also forms the initial scaffolding upon which new tissue forms , thus promoting healing .\nthere are several dozen types of anemia that are categorized by their underlying cause . when doctors test blood for anemia , they often describe the blood by the hemoglobin content of red blood cells ( color ) and by the size and shape of red blood cells . these descriptions can point a doctor toward the underlying disorder . treatment is specific for each type of anemia and is based on treating the underlying disease .\none way to treat anemia is to provide the body with more red blood cells to carry oxygen . this can be done through a blood transfusion , a safe , common procedure in which you receive blood through a small plastic tube inserted into one of your blood vessels . some people with thalassemia \u2013 usually with thalassemia major \u2013 need regular blood transfusions because their body makes such low amounts of hemoglobin . people with thalassemia intermedia ( not as severe as major , but not as mild as trait ) may need blood transfusions sometimes , such as when they have an infection or an illness . people with thalassemia minor or trait usually do not need blood transfusions because they either do not have anemia or have only a mild anemia .\nvisions .

- except a hint of centuries - long boredom . at\na hormone produced by the kidneys that stimulates the production of red blood cells in a process called erythropoiesis .\npeople with kidney failure can also develop iron deficiency due to blood loss during hemodialysis , a type of dialysis that uses a special filter called a dialyzer to remove wastes from the blood . low levels of iron and folic acid\u2014another nutrient required for normal red blood cell production\u2014may also contribute to anemia in people with kidney disease .\npeople who lose a lot of blood very quickly , like those who have been injured in an accident , had a blood vessel burst , or have lost blood during surgery , can become anemic because the body cannot make blood as fast as it is being lost . in cases where blood loss is life threatening , a person can have the lost blood replaced through a blood transfusion * . in less severe cases , the body will slowly bring the blood volume and hemoglobin content back to normal by itself . in fact , a person can lose two - thirds of his or her blood volume over a 24 - hour period without dying . other people have a place in their body that is constantly bleeding a little bit , such as a wound in the skin or mucous membranes inside the body ( ulcer ) . in these cases , the source of bleeding needs to be found and treated , and dietary supplements of iron often are needed to help boost hemoglobin production .\nother treatments may include antibiotic or antifungal medicines if infection occurs ; blood and platelet transfusions to counter low levels of red blood cells ( erythrocytes ) and platelets ; general supportive measures to overcome side - effects of chemotherapy .\nfrom those tissues back to the lungs . this exchange is enabled by the most important component of red blood cells\nanemia is a condition in which a person has a lower than normal number of red blood cells or the amount of hemoglobin in the red blood cells drops below normal , which prevents the body\u2019s cells from getting enough oxygen .\ntransfusion - associated graft - versus - host disease ( ta - gvhd ) is another risk factor associated with blood transfusions in cancer patients . although it is very rare , it is often fatal . with ta - gvhd , the patient ' s immune system does not recognize the white blood cells in the donor blood as\nnonself .\nthe donor white blood cells , however , recognize the patient as\nnonself ,\nand an immune - mediated reaction ensues . to prevent this reaction in at - risk patients , blood may be irradiated prior to transfusion .\n\u201c pale blood is a vacant and stylistically empty attempt at a modern day vampire film . it is all posed mood \u2013 washes of synthesizer sound , downbeat lighting , lots of slow - motion and endless street scenes , plus lots of padding footage involving a laughably pretentious new wave band called agent orange . however , the plot is far too insubstantial ( read non - existent ! ) to support anything that is going on . \u201d richard scheib , moria\nanemia ( a - nee - me - a ) is not a disease in itself . instead , it is a sign that the body has a problem with its red blood cells . the blood of a person with anemia does not contain enough red blood cells or enough of the protein hemoglobin ( he - mo - glow - bin ) . anemia can develop because of poor nutrition , excessive blood loss , destruction of red blood cells , abnormal hemoglobin , or from a number of other causes . but no matter what causes anemia , the result is always the same : the blood does not carry enough oxygen to the cells throughout the body , so the body cannot function normally .\nsince your body has fewer red blood cells when you have thalassemia , you may have symptoms of a low blood count , or anemia . when you have anemia , you might feel tired or weak . you might also experience :\nfor anemias caused by excessive or chronic bleeding , stopping blood loss is the first step . in some cases , a blood transfusion is used to replenish the volume of blood in the body . for people with dietary causes of anemia , eating a diet rich in the deficient nutrient or taking supplements such as iron or vitamins often fixes the problem .\nthe best way of diagnosing anemia is with a blood test . a sample of the patient ' s blood is taken with a needle . the sample is then studied under a microscope . the number , size , and shape of red blood cells can then be determined . this information tells whether the patient has anemia and , if so , what kind .\nsince all these symptoms above can also be caused by other problems , you\u2019ll need a physical examination and blood tests to determine whether you have anemia . sometimes a person may not notice any symptoms , but anemia will be identified by an abnormal result on a routine blood test ( such as a blood test that is part of your annual check - up ) .\nthe onset of iron deficiency anemia is gradual . the deficiency begins when the body loses more iron than it gains from food and other sources . because depleted iron stores cannot meet the red blood cells ' needs , fewer red blood cells develop . in this early stage of anemia , the red blood cells look normal , but they are reduced in number . then the body tries to compensate for the iron deficiency by producing more red blood cells , which are characteristically small in size .\na blood test can often suggest the diagnosis of aml . the test will typically show a low number of red blood cells , normal white blood cells and platelets . some blast cells which have spilled into the bloodstream from the marrow are also usually seen . sometimes large numbers of blast cells occur in the bloodstream . further tests are usually done to confirm the diagnosis .\na chest x - ray , further blood tests and other tests are usually done to assess your general well - being .\na reduction in the quantity of the oxygen - carrying pigment haemoglobin in the blood . the main symptoms are excessive tiredness and fatigability , breathlessness on exertion , pallor , and poor resistance to infection . the many causes of anaemia include loss of blood (\nknown for their bright red color , red cells are the most abundant cell in the blood , accounting for about 40 to 45 percent of its volume . the shape of a red blood cell is a biconcave disk with a flattened center - in other words , both faces of the disc have shallow bowl - like indentations ( a red blood cell looks like a donut ) .\na complete blood count ( cbc ) test gives your doctor important information about the types and numbers of cells in your blood , especially the red blood cells and their percentage ( hematocrit ) or protein content ( hemoglobin ) , white blood cells , and platelets . the results of a cbc may diagnose conditions like anemia , infection , and other disorders . the platelet count and plasma clotting tests ( prothombin time , partial thromboplastin time , and thrombin time ) may be used to evaluate bleeding and clotting disorders .\nyharnam rises as a city again , with its old part burnt and closed . the healing church kept their experiments with blood .\nnot taking medication that has triggered hemolytic anemia and not eating foods that have caused hemolysis ( breakdown of red blood cells ) .\nlet me explain what you become after defeating the moon presence . basically you become a baby great one .\nthe choir\nand\nthe healing church\nis the reason why this infection started in the first place after using old blood as a way to treat various ailments . the problem with old blood is that it reacts with human blood , the old blood heals but transforms man to beasts and that ' s where the beastly scourge began . from the caryll rune beast\nbeast\nis one of the early caryll runes . as well as one of the first to be deemed forbidden . the discovery of blood entailed the discovery of undesirable beasts\n.\nhemolytic anemia can enlarge the spleen , accelerating the destruction of red blood cells ( hemolysis ) . other complications of hemolytic anemia include :\nanemia of inflammation and chronic disease is caused by red blood cells not functioning normally , so they cannot absorb and use iron efficiently . in addition , the body cannot respond normally to erythropoietin ( epo ) , a hormone made by the kidneys that stimulates bone marrow to produce red blood cells . over time , this abnormal functioning causes a lower than normal number of red blood cells in the body .\nblood cells develop from hematopoietic stem cells and are formed in the bone marrow through the highly regulated process of hematopoiesis . hematopoietic stem cells are capable of transforming into red blood cells , white blood cells , and platelets . these stem cells can be found circulating in the blood and bone marrow in people of all ages , as well as in the umbilical cords of newborn babies . stem cells from all three sources may be used to treat a variety of diseases , including leukemia , lymphoma , bone marrow failure , and various immune disorders .\nyou\u2019ve heard the story before : the man\u2019s been throwing his weight around again , muscling people all over town with super - uninteresting beer . enter superfuzz , a one - beer crusade against the oppressive ordinary . he can relate to other ales , with an easygoing blend of northwest pale , munich and dextri - pils malts , but where the hops and the blood orange come in , he\u2019s a complicated guy . worldly german northern brewer and cascade bitter and flavor the beer , but it\u2019s the combination of citra , amarillo and blood orange peel in the finish , topped off with pureed and concentrated blood orange in the fermenter that land the biggest blows . call it orangesploitation , superfuzz is serving notice . starting gravity is 14\u00b0p / 1 . 056 , and alcohol a mellow 5 . 3 % by volume .\nback then , in 2008 , the vampire myth had been completely defanged by the twilight books and their pale hero , edward cullen\u2014who could conquer his desire for sex or blood or sleep or anything beyond gazing deeply into his girlfriend\u2019s eyes . by contrast , true blood opened with gratuitously explicit sex scenes , then segued into one of the most ricidulously gory bloodbaths in tv history later that season . the characters were all gloriously weird , whether they were vampires , werewolves , faeries , or shapeshifters\u2014never mind whether they were straight , gay , or bisexual . this show didn\u2019t just want you to watch its freak flag fly . it wanted to stake that freak flag through your heart .\ntake a scene that is one of the film\u2019s most inspired yet least observed moments , the centurion piercing the dead christ\u2019s side with a lance , releasing a flow of blood and water . in other depictions , the blood and water are often shown trickling or oozing down his side . gibson , though , depicts a spray of blood and water gushing from christ\u2019s side and showering down on the startled centurion .\nblood consists of red blood cells , white blood cells , platelets , and plasma . red blood cells , or erythrocytes ( e - rith - ro - sites ) , are the most numerous cells in the blood and give blood its red color . the tissues and cells in the body require oxygen to function properly , and erythrocytes are specialized to carry and distribute oxygen because they contain hemoglobin . hemoglobin has the unique property of being able to absorb oxygen in the lungs , where it is plentiful , and release oxygen to the cells of the body , where it is needed . hemoglobin consists of four protein molecules , called globins , and up to four heme molecules . the heme molecules are red - pigmented , nonprotein , iron - binding compounds , and they are responsible for binding to and transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide .\nsome common symptoms of mild anemia include weakness , fatigue , and a\nrun - down\nfeeling . other signs include pale skin and a lack of color in the creases of the palm , gums , nail beds or lining of the eyelids . someone who is weak , tires easily , is often out of breath , and feels faint or dizzy may have severe anemia . other symptoms of anemia include :\nacute myeloid leukaemia is where the bone marrow makes large numbers of abnormal immature white blood cells which are derived from a myeloid stem cell .\na common cause of iron - deficiency anemia is chronic blood loss , usually from the gastrointestinal tract . bleeding ulcers or polyps , chronic irritation of the lining of the gastrointestinal tract , or cancer can cause this kind of \u201csilent\u201d internal bleeding . often , this blood loss is invisible to the naked eye , and your healthcare provider may do a simple test , called a fecal occult blood test , to find it .\na molecule found in red blood cells that contains an iron atom and that helps transport oxygen from the lungs to cells throughout the body .\nthe most extreme form of treatment in such cases is a bone marrow transplant . all blood cells are made in bone marrow . marrow is a fatty tissue found in the center of bones . people whose bodies make too few red blood cells may need a bone marrow transplant . marrow from a healthy person is injected into the patient ' s bones . if successful , the healthy marrow begins producing red blood cells .\ninadequate hydration can cause fatigue , poor appetite , heat intolerance , dizziness , constipation , kidney stones and a dangerous drop in blood pressure .\nanemias do not all stem from the same causes . anemia can be the result of injuries , chronic or acute illnesses , complications of surgery or childbirth , metabolic disturbances or deficiencies , and adverse response to drug therapy administered for other conditions . causes may include sudden or ongoing loss of blood , nutritional deficiencies , decreased red blood cell production , or increased red blood cell destruction . malnutrition or malabsorption of nutrients can contribute to vitamin deficiency anemia and iron deficiency anemias . although red cell destruction and replacement is an ongoing process in the body , hereditary disorders and certain diseases can accelerate blood cell destruction , resulting in anemia . however , excessive bleeding is the most common cause of severe anemia , and the speed with which blood loss occurs has a significant effect on the severity of symptoms . chronic blood loss may be a consequence of the following :\ni have a question about the\npaleblood\nmost of the theories i read tells that\npaleblood\nis accualy the blood of the moon presence - the ultimate blood the note at the start of the game states :\nseek paleblood to transend the hunt\n, i thought that a\npaleblood\nwas a person - an outsider that had nothing to do with the blood plague - the main character . . .\nred blood cells are produced in the bone marrow through a process called erythropoiesis . when the bone marrow functions normally , it continuously replaces red blood cells to maintain a normal level that allows for adequate oxygenation of the tissues . the hormone erythropoietin stimulates red blood cell production and sends a message to the bone marrow to increase production when oxygen levels in the body are low . this mechanism is often impaired in patients with cancer .\nyharnam is a towering , labyrinthine gothic city , home to both the healing church and the blood ministrations . as no evidence of the existence of a ruling body is provided in the game , one may presume that the healing church controls the city ( at least indirectly ) . the church focuses around healing by infusions of blood . miraculously , blood healing can repair wounds and cure or hinder diseases . yharnam ' s whole culture became focused on blood , even to the point of blood - based drinks surpassing alcoholic beverages as the most commonly consumed . yharnam ' s populace is apparently viewed as insane or degenerate by the wider world , and the citizens have become extremely distrustful of non - natives as a result .\ni believe this happens many years in the future , the blood minister appears in the city , creating hunters for the hunter ' s dream .\naplastic anemia . sometimes curable by bone marrow transplant , but potentially fatal , aplastic anemia is characterized by decreased production of red and white blood cells and platelets ( disc - shaped cells that allow the blood to clot ) . this disorder may be inherited or acquired as a result of :\nsickle cell anemia . sickle cell anemia ( see sickle cell anemia entry ) is a genetic disorder . cells receive genes that give them the wrong instructions for making red blood cells . red blood cells are normally shaped like plump doughnuts . in sickle cell anemia , the cells are curved with sharp points . these cells easily stick to each other . they also stick to the walls of blood vessels . clumps of sickled red blood cells can collect in a vein or artery and block it . this condition can cause pain , weakness , and , in extreme cases , death .\nsometimes curable by bone marrow transplant , but potentially fatal , aplastic anemia is characterized by decreased production of red and white blood cells and platelets ( disc - shaped cells that are a key component of blood coagulation ) . this disorder may be inherited or acquired as a result of the following :\nit\u2019s certainly a relief to see an attempt at the grotesque reality of violent death rather than the diluted depictions of some film portrayals . but , again , with all due respect to catholicism , there has in the past and to an extent still is a virtual blood cult within it . the medieval church was obsessed with gore , and even today in southern europe we see quite repugnant fetishes with sacred blood , holy blood , miracle - giving blood . if it\u2019s european medievalism we\u2019re seeing rather than death - dry , god - drenched ancient judea , we could be in trouble . (\na cbc result that shows low iron levels in the blood yet normal measures of iron stores in the body is a hallmark of ai / acd .\niron deficiency anemia . the onset of iron deficiency anemia is gradual and , at first , there may not be any symptoms . the deficiency begins when the body loses more iron than it derives from food and other sources . because depleted iron stores cannot meet the red blood cell ' s needs , fewer red blood cells develop . in this early stage of anemia , the red blood cells look normal , but they are reduced in number . then the body tries to compensate for the iron deficiency by producing more red blood cells , which are characteristically small in size . symptoms develop at this stage .\nmichael fury ( chakiris ) arrives in los angeles to investigate a series of mysterious high - profile murders where the victims have been completely drained of blood .\npatients with thalassemia usually do not require treatment . however people with a severe form may require periodic hospitalization for blood transfusions and / or bone marrow transplantation .\nanemias caused by a decreased production of red blood cells are also called hypoplastic anemias , and many different conditions and disorders can cause this kind of anemia .\nai / acd is easily confused with iron - deficiency anemia because in both forms of anemia levels of iron circulating in the blood are low . iron in the body is found both circulating in the blood and stored in body tissues . circulating iron is necessary for red blood cell production . low blood iron levels occur in iron - deficiency anemia because levels of the iron stored in the body\u2019s tissues are depleted . in ai / acd , however , iron stores are normal or high . low blood iron levels occur in ai / acd , despite normal iron stores , because inflammatory and chronic diseases interfere with the body\u2019s ability to use stored iron and absorb iron from the diet . ai / acd is the second most common form of anemia , after iron - deficiency anemia . 1\ncytomegalovirus ( cmv ) is a virus that may be present in blood products . although it has no effect on individuals with normally functioning immune systems , cancer patients often have a diminished ability to fight infection . these patients may be at risk for cmv if they are cmv negative and receive cmv - positive blood .\nblood clotting problems . this is due to low levels of platelets . this can cause easy bruising , bleeding from the gums and other bleeding - related problems .\nchildren with aplastic anemia are especially susceptible to infection . treatment for aplastic anemia may involve blood transfusions and bone marrow transplantation to replace malfunctioning cells with healthy ones .\nmore serious forms of anemia may require surgery . bleeding ulcers and certain types of stomach disorders are examples of anemias that may be treated surgically . in some cases , blood transfusions may be required . people who have lost large numbers of red blood cells may require a transfusion in order to avoid serious complications of anemia .\nthere are three broad categories of causes of anemia . first , when someone is injured and loses a great deal of blood , anemia can develop because the body\ns total blood volume is lost faster than it can be replaced . in the second category , the process of making red blood cells in the body is not working normally : bone marrow does not make enough erythrocytes , the erythrocytes do not contain enough hemoglobin , or the hemoglobin does not function correctly . in the third category , red blood cells are destroyed faster than the marrow can replenish them . some of the most common types of anemia in each category are described below ."]}

reaching conspiracy that allows h0eg to do much more than simply spin out a thrilling detective tale . smilla\u2019s mixed heritage provides h0eg with the opportunity to comment critically on the historical maltreatment of the inuit natives of greenland by the danes . furthermore , the novel contains a subplot about a wondrous meteorite that may be alive , through which h0eg engages in an examination of the ethics of contemporary science and scientists .\nmr . august , the director whose films include ' ' the best intentions ' ' and ' ' pelle the conqueror , ' ' does a fine job of conveying such details in quick , economic fashion . but with a plot that grows increasingly far - fetched , his ' ' smilla ' s sense of snow ' ' has as much to do with glossy good looks as with real information . the film ' s smilla changes costumes with a frequency that rivals evita ' s , and she suggests a stevedore envisioned by helmut newton by the time she stows away on a boat . the film ' s final confrontation is remarkable not only for spectacular glimpses of greenland ' s lonely white scenery and for an actor gutsy enough to play a scene in freezing water but also for conspicuous product plugs on the characters ' parkas .\noh my , this book is bad . the premise is an interesting enough hook - a boy has fallen off a snow laden roof . the police file it as an accident , but smilla , with an extraordinary feeling for snow , thinks not . smilla ' s intuition that a banal letter found in the boy ' s apartment about his mother ' s pension might hold a clue to the boy ' s death leads her to elsa lubing , signee of the letter . elsa gives smilla the key and secret code that allow her to break into the cryolite corporation ' s archives holdi\nsmilla ' s mother , although dead for many years , continues to play an important role in smilla ' s life . how has ane influenced her daughter over the years ? how do you think smilla will come to terms with her mixed heritage ?\na recent oscar winner , alexandre desplat\u2019s beguiling score for \u201cthe grand budapest hotel\u201d continues wfmt\u2019s exploration of the sound of cinema .\nupon its english -

seller smilla\u2019s sense of snow has largely overshadowed his other four books , none of which enjoyed the same degree of near - unanimous critical praise or commercial success . although he was hailed as a rising literary star when he published smilla\u2019s sense of snow at the age of 34\u2014at which point he had already published the novel forestilling om det tyvende arhundrede ( the history of danish dreams ) and the collection of stories fortallinger om natten ( tales of the night ) \u2014h0eg has not published a novel since 1996 , when his kvinden og aben ( the woman and the ape ) was released to mixed reviews . as a result , his status within world literature is still rather ambiguous , although he remains very popular in his native denmark .\none snowy day in copenhagen , six - year - old isaiah falls to his death from a city rooftop . the police pronounce it an accident . but isaiah ' s neighbour , smilla , an expert in the ways of snow and ice , suspects murder . she embarks on a dangerous quest to find the truth , following a path of clues as clear to her as footsteps in the snow .\nas the neighbor of little isaiah and someone who naturally understands footprints in the snow , smilla never believes that this child accidentally fell off a roof . ( incidentally , one unsung genius behind the popularity of this thriller is the person who decided that its british title , ' ' miss smilla ' s feeling for snow , ' ' could use some alliterative improvement . ) she begins inquiring into the circumstances of his death even as she stumbles onto a conspiracy elaborate enough to recall john le carre .\nphotography is a fiction . it\u2019s a frame of a film which hasn\u2019t been made , or a line from a forgotten poem . i always create in camera as much as possible , because it is also about the experience of what is in front of you at the time .\na truly outlandish twist that would be more at home in a no - brainer hollywood action film than in what purports to be an intelligent adult thriller .\nthe smilla mega movie page provides evidence of the mechanic\u2019s power with an array of videos , including the trailer and fan vids , dialogue and quotes from the film , promotional images , an interview , reviews , additional resources , a drink recipe ( a good alternative to that hot chocolate ! ) , posters , and a stunning set of screencaps .\nperhaps the most profoundly felt theme running through smilla ' s sense of snow is that of alienation . when a people , or a person , lose ( s ) a sense of meaning in life or a separation from that which has formerly nurtured them , the result is both a cultural and personal sense of alienation . in many ways , smilla exemplifies both . clearly , smilla is alienated both from her father and danish society . she often pulls her telephone from its jack and disconnects her doorbell so that she does not have to interact with others in copenhagen . the root of this alienation is in her forcible transfer from greenland to copenhagen after the death of her mother . that she runs away more times than she can remember between the ages of seven and twelve speaks to this deeply felt sense of cultural isolation . by the time she is an adult , smilla has resigned herself to living at least partially within danish culture :\ni no longer make an effort to keep europe or denmark at a distance . neither do i plead with them to stay . in some way they are part of my destiny . they come and go in my life . i have given up doing anything about it .\nhowever , this is the voice of resignation , not integration ; even as an adult , smilla remains alienated from and unable to find meaning in denmark or europe .\nthe best movie i have seen for the month of march , ranks as an all time high . smilla is a star . the suspense will keep you on the edge of your chair . i can ' t believe that this film didn ' t get more awards , its a sleeper . other then the berlin international film festival i don ' t think it showed up anywhere else . the young boy played a good part . a must see must add to any collection , starts in greenland then to denmark , my type of film , one that shows anything but america . 5 stars . thank you .\nin a segment almost too cool for human ears , we glide from sweet smell of success to elevator to the gallows to anatomy of a murder to breathless in this salute to jazz film scoring par excellence .\nthe notion of\ncolonialism ,\nhowever , is tied up with much more than the history of one nation claiming another as a colony . rather , it is an exploration of the effects of this relationship on both the colonizer and the colonized . in smilla ' s sense of snow , the days of greenland as a colony have passed ; at the time of the writing of the novel , greenland was under home rule . however , two centuries of colonial exploitation , as well as the two decades of\nmodernization\nthat occurred in the 1950s and 1960s , have changed the way that both greenlanders and danes think and live .\nthe trailer for this was on a vhs copy of one of my favourite films back in the late 90s . couldn ' t tell you what the film was , i just know that the trailer for smilla is one of the trailer ' s i ' ve seen the most times in my life because of it . at no point during or after seeing that trailer was i remotely fussed about watching the film . my memory says it looked like the kind of film\nold women\nmight like . of course i was about 15 so who the hell knows what i thought\nold\nwas . anyway , i ' ve since sold the book in my retail career many times and even the book jacket looked a bit book club / white\u2026\npeter h\u00f8eg was born in copenhagen , denmark . before becoming a writer , he worked variously as a sailor , ballet dancer , and actor . he published his first novel , a history of danish dreams ( 1988 ) , to positive reviews . however , it was smilla\u2019s sense of snow ( 1992 ) , a million - copy best seller , that earned h\u00f8eg immediate and international literary celebrity . his books have been published in more than th\nh0eg\u2019s seeming inability to please his most outspoken critics seems to stem from his unwillingness to accommodate the expectations of those who want him to write either conventional genre fictions or highbrow philosophical novels . h0eg is equally comfortable ( and interested in ) writing about the complexities of theories concerning the nature of time\u2014a subject that shows up in most of his books\u2014as he is making allusions to popular culture , from thrillers in the vein of john lecarre to b - movie science fiction like king kong . although this combination won him millions of readers in smilla\u2019s sense of snow , it has not resulted in similarly broad acclaim for his subsequent efforts .\nbut the most seductive\nsign\nof all for smilla is her beloved snow . smilla authoritatively announces early on ,\njeg synes bedre om sne og is end om kaerligheden\n(\ni think more highly of snow and ice than love\n) . equally authoritatively h\u00f8eg cautioned readers not to trust her .\nshe should not be relied on , because she ' s hidding her sensitivity and feelings under a rough surface\n( lyall ) . both statements are misleading , for it is not so much a matter of snow versus love , but of snow as smilla ' s disguised obsession with the loss of love . smilla herself makes the connection , if she disguises the nature of the loss , when , at the end of her reminiscence about her mother ' s intimate embrace , she muses ,\nm\u00e5ske er jeg allerede d\u00e9r begyndt at \u00f8nske at forst\u00e5 isen . at ville forst\u00e5 er at pr\u00f8ve at generobre noget vi har mistet\n(\nperhaps i had even then begun to want to understand the ice . to want to understand is an attempt to recapture something we have lost\n) .\nzeal is a virtue when it is put into practice as service of others . the clever , cerebral , and reclusive heroine of smilla ' s sense of snow is a copenhagen scientist who cherishes her independence and privacy . the one exception to her preference to stay way from people is isaiah , a young eskimo neighbor , who wins his way into her heart . when he mysteriously falls to his death from their building ' s rooftop , smilla is convinced that he as murdered . using the same reserves of courage and tenacity that fueled her mother ' s career as an inuit hunter , she comes up against the unusual activities of a mining corporation headed by a nefarious man called tork ( richard harris ) .\npeter h\u00f8eg was born in copenhagen , denmark . before becoming a writer , he worked variously as a sailor , ballet dancer , and actor . he published his first novel , a history of danish dreams ( 1988 ) , to positive reviews . however , it was smilla\u2019s sense of snow ( 1992 ) , a million - copy best seller , that earned h\u00f8eg immediate and international literary celebrity . his books have been published in more than thirty countries .\nit\u2019s surprising to see a lot of people\u2019s living spaces of a certain age \u2013 what they surround themselves with and how they decorate their houses . they\u2019re like living museums . it\u2019s often an incredible level of chaos and madness that they live amongst\nfor smilla snow is the substance that preserves form , like isaiah ' s tracks . it is the substance of connection , associated in her mind with winter , her mother ' s favorite season , and the visiting of others .\nvinteren var en tid til samvaer , ikke til jordens undergang\n(\nwinter was a time for community , not for the end of the world\n) . snow is the substance of certainty . it is the substance of perfection . like all who mourn , smilla longs for something that can contain the essence of what is lost , keats ' s grecian urn , dinesen ' s blue vase . smilla has found it in her ability to imagine snow .\ni den ydre verden vil der aldrig eksistere en fuldendt dannet snekrystal . men i vores bevidsthed ligger den glitrende og lydefri viden om den perfekte is\n(\nin the external world a perfectly formed snow crystal would never exist . but in our consciousness lies the glittering and flawless knowledge of perfect ice\n) . smilla seems to find in the ice all that she longs for , life , wildness , beauty , change , and eternal permanence . nearing greenland , she describes in the most sensuous terms the creation of the ice cover :\nbut , of course , snow is as impermanent as life , the quintessence of impermanence . touched by the human hand it disappears , as suddenly and completely as smilla ' s mother . only in smilla ' s mind is it a constant . even in its physical construction it is made up of wholes and holes , as illusive a substance as smilla could have found for her passion , and thus , in essence , the perfect\nsign\nfor her mother , both in her presence and her absence . it is the substance in which she is both to be lost and to be found . yet , as long as smilla continues to romanticize snow , she can avoid facing the loss that it hides . she need never lose again .\nfirst , there is a lot of snow . a great deal of snow . snow on the ground . in the air . everywhere . and there is ice . and cold water . and icebergs . and even full - blown , life - sized glaciers . if the weather is warm where you are at the moment , it will feel much , much colder once the opening scene rolls by , so grab a blanket and some hot chocolate .\nthe term\ngenre\nrefers to the category of a given literary work in either form or content . in terms of content , certain genres carry with them certain conventions . for example , detective fiction requires both a crime and someone trying to solve the crime . thus , while a book such as smilla ' s sense of snow is clearly generically a novel , it does not easily fall into any one generic category in terms of content and convention . indeed , it is almost as if h\u00f8eg is playing with the notion of genre itself in his creation of this novel .\nthe last section of the novel takes place on the ice of greenland . again , h\u00f8eg evokes the bitter cold and the alien strangeness of the frozen land . smilla , however , finds herself on surer footing here . not only does she have the scientific knowledge of snow and ice that she has learned in europe , she has the intuitive knowledge of her upbringing . in the final desperate scene , it is smilla ' s familiarity with the setting that promises her survival :\nshe thinks more highly of snow and ice than she does of love . she lives in a world of numbers , science and memories - - a dark , exotic stranger in a strange land . and now smilla jaspersen is convinced she has uncovered a shattering crime . . . it happened in the copenhagen snow . a six - year - old boy , a greenlander like smilla , fell to his death from the top of his apartment building . while the boy ' s body is still warm , the police pronounce his death an accident . but smilla knows her young neighbor didn ' t fall from the roof on his own . soon she is following a path of clues as clear to her as footsteps in the snow . for her dead neighbor , and for herself , she must embark on a harrowing journey of lies , revelation and violence that will take her back to the world of ice and snow from which she comes , where an explosive secret waits beneath the ice . . . .\nkenneth lonergan wrote and directed the film\nyou can count on me ,\nfor which he won the waldo salt screenwriting award , the sundance film festival ' s top award for best screenwriting , and the new york film critics ' circle , l . a . film critics ' circle , writers guild of america , and national board of review awards for best screenplay . he was also nominated for an academy award for best original screenplay . lonergan ' s plays include\nlobby hero ,\nthe waverly gallery\nand\nthis is our youth .\nhis theater work has been performed in new york at naked angels , second stage , the atlantic theater company , and h . b . playwrights foundation . in los angeles his work has been staged at the coast theatre , and in london at the royal court theater and at the battersea playhouse .\nmy hunch , moonshadow , is that you likely have little or no experience of snow and ice . if you had , you might relate better to this book , and enjoy the near mystical sense that smilla has of it . but do try to soldier on , as this is an exceptionally good story . and no , it would not be fair to give away the ending to you . sorry . margaret ( less )\nlagermann is a forensic medicine expert who first examines isaiah ' s body . he reveals to smilla that a muscle biopsy has been removed from the body sometime after the child ' s death .\nwas given an indifferent critical reception when it came out , much of which seemed based on the story\u0092s taking a turn into science - fiction at the ending ( an aspect that comes direct from the book ) , but it is a strong and underrated film that is worthy of reconsideration .\nthis cult classic has a lot of things going for it . miss smilla is a stylish , engaging heroine with terrific dress sense , dark wit , courage under fire and fluency in greenlandic . ( i believe it ' s west greenlandic if you care about that kind of thing ) . at one point , she performs an imaginative sex act that i ' ve never seen described in any other place . there ' s a brooding sense of menace and a weird conspiracy that gradually comes together . . . i don ' t know why i ' m so bothered by the fact that the stor\nbrendan gleeson most recently co - starred in steven spielberg ' s\nai : artificial intelligence\nand is currently shooting anthony mingella ' s ' cold mountain .

opening , the killing of america is a documentary that has taken too long to make it to our screens , not necessarily because of its quality as a story - telling device , nor necessarily for the political angle its filmmaker\u2019s have presented , but more because of the truth of the story that makes this at once relevant to its intended early 80s release date audience and indeed our contemporary landscape . this movie may have been banned from release in 1981 , but chieko & leonard schrader\u2019s documentary passion project has finally managed to find distribution and , like any good documentary , still successfully entices an audience and questions their moral values and principles all at once .\nno wonder then that , underneath the paranoia and shock that reverberate through the killing of america , there\u2019s also curiosity , even sadness , about the unspoken connection between americans\u2019 thirst for violence and the easy availability of powerful weapons . \u201c [ violence ] is a discussion which is part of the american character\u2014that\u2019s how deep it is , \u201d renan says . \u201cwe have done terrible things in building this country , and then we paper over it . we don\u2019t think about it . we don\u2019t think about the violence that we ourselves experience and grow up in . we don\u2019t think about the fact that at least one in every four women is raped . it\u2019s just astounding what we don\u2019t think about . \u201d\nstereotypes are peculiar things . they make targets out of those who are different , be it in language or traditions . and it appears appalachia remains the last minority population in america for which it is socially acceptable to question intelligence , speech pattern , the way people dress . their uniqueness .\nthis is not an unforeseen or coincidental result of forces beyond our control ,\no ' brien said .\nit is a direct consequence of actions of the parties and supporters of the conflict .\nfour years ago , for a moment , there was considerable interest in the fact that large numbers of americans were being fatally shot . on 14 december 2012 , 20 -

( the addition of the scene also suggests , for reasons that i won\u2019t go into , that the american series might change the identity of the killer , a shift that wouldn\u2019t be too difficult given the unusually large cast of characters and abundant red herrings . )\nperhaps the most striking difference between the two productions is their respective emotional temperatures : danish cool versus american heat . not that there isn\u2019t the same amount of grief , anger and shame in \u201cforbrydelsen\u201d as there is in \u201cthe killing\u201d ; it\u2019s just expressed with greater reserve . the children who act out do so more politely ; adults who scheme and fight do so with more compunction . some of this may be national temperament and some of it , again , may be the exigencies of short - season character development . as the victim\u2019s mother , the danish pernille larsen starts out shell - shocked and gradually builds to anger while the american mitch larsen starts out in a rage and stays there .\nlook past the rage , though , and it becomes clear that winograd has an important case to make . in peta ' s response to me , schinke wrote ,\nwinograd dishonestly and viciously attacks all open admission shelters , those that do not shut the door to any animal , even those for whom peaceful release is a mercy .\nthis is another way of saying that because peta accepts so many dire cases , cases in which euthanasia may very well be justified , it should be excused for killing over 99 percent of the animals under its care . winograd , however , argues persuasively that peta euthanizes far more than just the unadoptable cases . in the following excerpt from his blog , he reveals that newkirk admits to killing animals that are\nadoptable\n:\namericans only got them selfs to blame . why not try to get rid of all the guns oohh nooo its in the constitution so you\nneed\nthem i dont feel sorry for anyone getting murdered there you chose to have the right to weapons every attempt to remove that right is attacked and stoped then live with the consequences . im just happy i am not an american living in america\nin an effort to reassure the public , the law established the assassination records review board to consider all decisions of whether to postpone the declassification of the records . by the time it concluded in 1998 , the board had forced the release of thousands of previously secret documents from the cia , fbi , secret service and other federal agencies , as well as congressional investigations into the assassination . some of these documents showed that evidence had in fact been withheld from the warren commission , presumably to hide the failure to detect\u2014and prevent\u2014a plot to kill kennedy ."]}

' that ' s only for entertainment . here it would be like a musical . you go to relax and laugh and be entertained . but there is also in france , since the 1950s , an idea of working in a company , where the text is only part of the show , where the design , costumes , movement and actors are linked . this theater is not realistic . this is my passion .\ni like that the book tries its best to represent comics from all over the world , there ' s a lot of interesting stuff here that a lot of people won ' t have heard of . based on my own experience with us / japanese / uk comics i feel that it does a good job of covering the most important us and japanese releases but only does a reasonable job with british comics ( it covers most of the major stuff but not the more obscure releases ) . i don ' t know enough about french and italian comics to comment .\nthe placings are set out in chronological order , with each entry being given either a page , or half a page of write - up , and some info on writers and artists as well as the original publishers is included .\ni tend to go through phases , i ' m trying to mix things up a bit at the moment tbh .\ni started theater as a hobby ,\nrousselet , age 46 , says ,\nand more and more i had a passion . and the more i knew , the more it became obvious that this would be my life .\ni ' m not keen on the way that some entries are writer / artist runs ( eg lee / ditko spider - man ) , whilst others are focused on a singular story , seems kind of like cheating to me . the layout can also be a bit confusing at times .\ndidier rousselet is le neon ' s founder . he is sitting inside the theater , wondering if he ' ll get his $ 15 , 000 back . that ' s what he spent to open the doors in 1991 . he had to gut a television repair shop and put in a bathroom , heating and proper egress . to call the results spartan would be a compliment . he is sanguine , but not about retrieving his money .\nwe have detected that you do not have javascript enabled . the heritage auctions web sites will not function without javascript , so we recommend enabling it .\nlast fall , in\nl ' amour medecin\n(\nlove is the best medicine\n) by moliere , two performances a week were in french , and two in english . rousselet is hesitant to try it again .\nthe problem is that when we staged it in french , we discovered that english rhythms are different . we had to change many subtle details with the second cast . it was really like doing two plays .\nhave not read the first two but i will shortly . i have read shade though , it was great , not as good x static or human target though .\nsince you seem to be in sort of a manga kick , try bakune young if you like over the top action . this scan is pretty mild , though .\nnot sure i would ' ve put ultimate spider - man on the list , probably would ' ve gone with a jm demateis story to round off spider - man .\nthe single greatest criticism rousselet receives is that his work is too slow . his outlook is the reverse : life is too fast .\npeople in the united states are hypnotized by television , that river of rushing images - - news , commercials , soap operas flowing into one . this is not what i want . i want something simple . a piece of fabric that an audience can dream on . our theater is not action - packed . some look at what we do and don ' t understand it , because there is no crime . . .\nfruit basket , tokyo zombie , uzumaki , tdksa and golgo 13 ?

8v over the fm composite signal wire and this switches the module into fm mode . the antenna module takes signal from the front antenna and mix that signal with the signal from the rear antenna . the antenna module amplifies both signals and sends the combined signal to the radio . the fm composite signal also provides a feedback signal to the antenna module , which indicates the quality of the signal . diagnostic aids poor am and fm radio reception is dependent on multiple influences , some of which may not be vehicle related . areas which have high rf traffic or block the signal path may cause a degradation in radio reception . radio reception may also be influenced by items within the vehicle , but not part of the radio system . such examples are aftermarket electrical accessories or other items which may generated noise in the vehicle electrical system .\nthe signal itself -

all the way to the very end .\nhave really taken this warning to heart . the team of david bruckner , dan bush and jacob gentry has created a film where an electronic signal sent through the television , the radio , phones , etc . changes normal people into raging homicidal maniacs . the mysterious signal distorts perceptions and scrambles receptors in the brain so people\u2019s logic is skewed and they do things they normally wouldn\u2019t do\u2026like kill everyone in sight .\nsilsila is the\nmanager\nof one traffic signal , that is he collects the\nhafta\n( protection tax ) from each signal squatter plying his trade . there ' s tsunami , a little scavenger boy , there ' s . . . see full summary \u00bb\nthe blu -

- a series of staccato , punctuated episodes and incidents about folk living around a traffic signal . when you hear of it , it sounds like an interesting concept . but however you may try stretching it , it just does not have enough meat for a full length feature film .\nthe signal is a decent horror flick that had the potential of being a great film . the problem with this film is that it starts off promising enough , but halfway through it loses its strength , and becomes a decent flick . what could have been an effective horror flick is brought down by a weak second half . the film is watchable , but it could have been reworked a bit because there are some good ideas on - screen . the films cast do a pretty decent job here , and the plot is pretty interesting as well . the films faults lie in the second half of the film where it falls apart . i think it ' \\ s a shame because this could have been a memorable horror flick with an effective plot . unfortunately , the signal leaves you wanting a bit more from the story , and as a horror film . this is a low - budget psycho slasher film that almost gets it right . the script was good , but like i previously stated , if only there could have been a bit more effort put into the second half , it would have made the signal a much more memorable ride . there are some elements that work well , but most of them don ' t quite get there . however you do see the potential of a very good horror film here , it ' s just too bad that some ideas fell flat . overall a decent horror flick that is worth watching , but it leaves a lot to be desired as well . for a low - budget film , this is a decent try ; if only the script would have been reworked a bit , then the signal would have been a terrific film .\nthe signal is a high concept film with big production value and an intimate character story , completed on relatively low budget \u2014 under $ 4 million . the low - fi fx work not only looks great , but feels unique . the practical fx that was done by legacy , formerly the stan winston studio . the film also features beautiful , incredibly artful cinematography , and compositions that you wouldn\u2019t expect from a genre film of this budget level . its no surprise that director william eubank is a former cinematographer .\n: the signal messes with peoples ' perceptions . several scenes are re - shot with a different character to show how the perceptions of the infected are warped . in particular ,\n. a very funny slasher / horror film , a electronic signal is being transmitted on the phones , tv and radio which make people kill each other there are only a few sane people left , very comical scenes . this film changes the course of infectious zombie movies . opens like a 1970 drive in movie and turns to pure fun . 4 1 / 2 stars\nthe tomatometer score \u2014 based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics \u2014 is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans . it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .\nwe find someone embracing the strange ; dedicating not just a film to it , but letting it , for the most , and brilliant , part letting that strangeness move and alter the film in frustrating , tantalizing , and often unknown and unknowable ways .\npremiered at sundance film festival last year , it generated a lot of buzz . it follows three different perspectives ( broken down into segments or \u201ctransmissions\u201d in the film ) that are each written and directed by three different people .\nwhat saves this film is the cast that has given noteworthy performances . kunal khemu manages to shoulder the film , and neetu chandra is graceful and watchable . sudhir mishra , with his towering personality and evocative eyes , looks every part the enigmatic mafia don .\nmade in 2007 ( shot in less than 2 weeks and on a $ 50 , 000 budget ) , the signal was released in 2008 after the filmmakers needed to find a song to replace an unlicensed cover of lou reed\u2019s \u201cperfect day\u201d ( they settled on a joy division cover instead ) . the film\u2019s plot is simple \u2013 a signal , transmitted via phone , radio , and television , is inexplicably turning people into psychopaths . not mindless zombies , ( not even semi - mindless like the tool - wielding ones in the crazies ) but rational , resourceful , conversational psychos who genuinely believe they should be killing the people they\u2019re killing . no other crimes \u2013 no theft , rape , jaywalking , white - collar crime ; just murder . set in the ( i believe , fictional ) city of terminus , the film revolves mainly around mya ( anessa ramsey ) , her husband lewis ( a . j . bowden ) , and her boyfriend ben ( justin welborn ) .\nin 2002 , alien was deemed\nculturally , historically or aesthetically significant\nby the national film preservation board of the united states , and was inducted into the national film registry of the library of congress for historical preservation alongside other films of 1979 including all that jazz , apocalypse now , the black stallion , and manhattan . in 2008 the american film institute ranked alien as the seventh - best film in the science fiction genre as part of afi ' s 10 top 10 , a cbs television special ranking the ten greatest movies in ten classic american film genres . the ranks were based on a poll of over 1 , 500 film artists , critics , and historians , with alien ranking just above terminator 2 : judgment day ( 1991 ) and just below ridley scott ' s other science fiction film blade runner ( 1982 ) . the same year , empire magazine ranked it thirty - third on its list of the five hundred greatest movies of all time , based on a poll of 10 , 200 readers , critics , and members of the film industry .\nthat strange signal , however , is coming not just from the television , but from radios , phones , and every other connected device \u2013 and as mya makes her way back home to lewis , perhaps for the last time , she bears witness to the signal\u2019s unsettling effects on its human receivers . deranged servants to their own primal impulses , victims of the signal suffer hallucinations that play out their anxieties and desires , even as they remain utterly , forcefully convinced of their own sanity .\nthe opening sequence is an excerpt from\nthe hap hapgood story ,\na winning entry in the 48 - hour film festival directed by jacob gentry .\nthe name of the city in the film is terminus . the movie was filmed entirely in atlanta , georgia which was originally called terminus when it was settled in 1837 .\noriginally , no film companies wanted to make the film , including 20th century fox . they stated various reasons , most being that it was too bloody . it was not until walter hill came on board that 20th century fox agreed to make the film , on the condition that the violence was toned down ; even after agreeing to make the movie , fox still rejected the first cut for being\ntoo bloody\n.\ntraffic signal also has a major drawback in that it ' s been dubbed , where a story like this was asking for the more - real sync sound .\nthat strange signal , however , is coming not just from the television , but from radios , phones , and every other connected device \u2013 and as mya makes her way back home to lewis , perhaps for the last time , she bears witness to the signal ' s unsettling effects on its human receivers . deranged servants to their own primal impulses , victims of the signal suffer hallucinations that play out their anxieties and desires , even as they remain utterly , forcefully convinced of their own sanity .\nin some ways the signal reminds me a lot of pontypool . the stories and very different , but the tone and atmosphere are very similar , and both can be considered \u201cthinking man\u2019s horror\u201d .\ni don ' t know about those series ( classic , comfort , pinnacle ) . they sound like llumar films . i wouldn ' t use a dye - based film . i like 3m films because of the daily experience with their film and adhesive products . the 3m colorstable is a nano - carbon , non - metallic film . it ' s better than dye - based for not much more . $ 350 is probably for a ceramic based film ( pinnacle ? ) . and if they are selling the pinnacle then the price should be ok . the question would be if you want the extra heat rejection but the film may be thicker ( distortion ) .\ngm\u0092s update to the document earlier . both are off gm\u0092s website antenna system important : radio systems with the antenna ( s ) in the glass are subject to posssible interference when an aftermarket window tint is applied . diversity antenna the diversity antenna system may use both front and back windows with an integral antenna built between the glass layers of the windshield and as an appliqu\u00e9 to the rear glass . any damage to the antenna requires replacing the glass . this system is designed to deliver the best radio signal reception possible . two antennas are used to form a diversity system . the primary antenna is part of the rear window and looks similar to the defogger grid . this antenna receives both am and fm signals . the secondary antenna is part of the front windshield and receives only fm signals . the antenna reception signals are sorted out by the radio antenna module . the radio antenna module is enabled when the radio is turned on . when the am or fm band is selected on the radio , the antenna module connects the rear window antenna directly to the radio . in addition , when the fm band is selected an enable signal is sent to the antenna module . superimposed on this enable signal is the strength of the signal being received by the radio tuner . the antenna module switches between the antennas , monitoring the radio signal strength and combines the signals and phase aligns them to create one strong signal\nan interview with writer / director boots riley about his incendiary new film ,\nsorry to bother you .\nleads many to compare it with the philosophy of many zombie films . the sudden violence of the film certainly lends itself to the comparison , as does the brutal scenes of gore . still ,\nno one knows for sure what exists in the signal . although many people have heard newscasts ( possibly about murder or terrorism ) and have seen faces and woodlike structures within the transmission of the signal . some people also believe that the signal is the 70 ' s style opening sequence of the movie , shown on ben ' s tv in the beginning , that has been scrambled . the scrambled version of the broadcast has created a superfear of paranoia that subliminally enters the mind and makes some people think everyone is out to get them , but basically the signal just makes people become utterly confused and unable to distinguish between what ' s real and what ' s unreal and between normal behaviour and unusual behaviour . the only problem with this theory is that not everyone was tuned into the same channel that was on ben ' s tv . ( although that really wouldn ' t matter because the signal was on every channel plus all radio stations and even mobile phones ) .\nthe success of alien spawned a media franchise of novels , comic books , video games , and toys , as well as three sequel and two prequel films . it launched weaver ' s acting career by providing her with her first lead role , and the story of her character ripley ' s encounters with the alien creatures became the thematic thread that ran through the film sequels aliens ( 1986 ) , alien 3 ( 1992 ) and alien resurrection ( 1997 ) . the film also led to two crossover films with the predator franchise , alien vs . predator ( 2004 ) and aliens vs . predator : requiem ( 2007 ) , as well as a prequel series comprising prometheus ( 2012 ) and alien : covenant ( 2017 ) .\ntheir movie premiered at 2007 ' s sundance film festival , but its homemade feel is of a piece with the pseudo - do - it - yourself horror philosophy of\ncloverfield\nand\ngeorge a . romero ' s diary of the dead ,\ntwo current horror movies that suggest the genre ' s prerogatives have undergone a paradigm shift . the subtexts are visibly close to the surface .\nthe signal\nis like a romero zombie movie in which the zombies aren ' t dead , they ' re just really temperamental . evil here is technology - born . maybe our cellphones and satellite dishes are giving us all the crazy . if the message is ,\nturn off your tv , put your phones away , and watch more movies ,\nyou ' ll get no argument from me .\nthere will be blood establishes itself as a film of darwinian ferocity , a stark and pitiless parable of american capitalism .\na behind - the - scene book was released to accompany the film , titled the book of alien , containing many concept sketches and production photographs , as well as details on the making of the film . topps released a set of trading cards based on the film . a soundtrack album was also released on vinyl featuring selections of goldsmith ' s score , and a single of the main theme was released in 1980 . heavy metal also produced an alien calendar for the 1980 year .\nthe epic game franchise is getting a huge film adaptation , directed by duncan jones ( moon ) . it\u2019s the war between humans and orcs over the future of azeroth , with good and bad people on both sides of the conflict . everything we\u2019ve seen from this film so far looks just jaw - dropping , and we were excited to hear how many practical effects the film has . fingers crossed that jones can actually pull this off .\nwith a strong focus on characters and dialogue , the film offers a cast of unknowns and non - professional actors , making the audience feels like it is participating in a discovery on multiple levels . forgoing jump scares and the traditional horror tropes , the film provides a surreal , primal , unexpected and unsettling journey through a society gone mad . we hesitate to tell you more because the signal , which is currently streaming on netflix , is something you need to experience for yourselves .\none thing that really impressed me with this movie was the ending . there is no definite answer as to how the movie ends . the signal has affected everyone in some manner , and the movie seems to end in a few different ways before the actual ending . the final ending leaves the film wide open as to closure , but not in a way that you would be expecting a sequel .\nalien garnered both critical acclaim and box office success , receiving an academy award for best visual effects , saturn awards for best science fiction film , best direction for scott , and best supporting actress for cartwright , and a hugo award for best dramatic presentation , along with numerous other award nominations . it has remained highly praised in subsequent decades , being inducted into the national film registry of the library of congress in 2002 for historical preservation as a film which is\nculturally , historically , or aesthetically significant\n. in 2008 it was ranked as the seventh - best film in the science fiction genre by the american film institute , and as the thirty - third greatest movie of all time by empire magazine .\nif transmission one slowly raises the film\u2019s horror to a pitch of explosive intensity , then jacob gentry\u2019s transmission two : the jealousy monster disorients the viewer even further with a violent swing in mood . this time showing the insanity that has afflicted terminus from the deluded perspective of the insane themselves , the film\u2019s middle section plays itself out as high farce \u2013 with a bodycount .\nthe signal ( 2007 ) official trailer # 1 -

rate film , and said that he was secretly glad that he didn ' t\nget a fair mention in the screen credits .\nthe film rambles on with a series of disconnected happenings - - an executive and his wife fight in their luxurious car at the signal , a regular believes giving money to beggars will help his prospects , flower girls fight in the middle of the road , a beggar boy lies about his father being dead , just when the ' dead ' man sits up behind him .\n\u2019the signal\u2019 features a competent 1080p / avc - encoded transfer that does a decent job handling a variety of gloomy interiors and heavy shadows . colors have been intentionally robbed of deep reds , but the resultant palette doesn\u2019t suffer from the abundance of blue and brown tones left in their place . skintones look fairly natural , blacks are inky , and contrast is spot - on for a film drenched in murky set design and lighting . while there is a bit of crushing and noise in the darkest shots , there isn\u2019t any significant artifacting , edge enhancement , or dnr . detail is also impressive , especially when considering the film\u2019s meager budget - - the film\u2019s textures and edges may not be as sharp as those in the most expensive flicks on the market , but close - ups and exterior shots are quite crisp and three dimensional . better still , \u2018the signal\u2019s hdv source generates the same rickshaw atmosphere as the sd dv - captured footage in \u201928 days later\u2019 without falling prey to that film\u2019s pesky resolution and clarity issues .\n: not where the signal came from , what it ' s supposed to do , or how to stop it . . . but how you spend your last day when the apocalypse rolls around .\nlike many of the best comedies and tragedies , this weimar - era silent film understands how each mode is often a hair ' s breadth from the other .\n, although is not as effective . the episode does however offer up the film\u0092s single most demented moment \u0096 where scott poythress announces that he can electrically stimulate life back into sahr nguajah\u0092s severed head and then proceeds to have a conversation with the decapitated head , which even demands a cigarette from him . scott poythress gives a rather funny performance while under the influence of the signal .\njonathan liebesman ( ninja turtles , battle los angeles ) directs this remake of the popular book turned into a 1995 robin williams film . we don\u2019t know how it\u2019ll differ from that film but i\u2019d expect bigger effects and a slightly different story , enough to warrant its existence .\n\u2019the signal\u2019 may not be the latest and greatest evolution of horror to invade your home theater , but it\u2019s a surprisingly solid , well - crafted thriller that offers a great cast and story . despite the low - key , low - budget nature of the production , magnolia has released the film on blu - ray with a faithful video transfer , an excellent dts hd ma audio track , and a heaping portion of supplemental features . while it can\u2019t go head to head with more expensive flicks on the market , \u2018the signal\u2019 manages to defy its straight -

[ 4 ] as a result , o ' bannon filed a complaint with the writers guild of america , who eventually ruled in his favor . despite an appeal by hill , the film ultimately credited its story to o ' bannon and shusett , and the screenplay to o ' bannon ; hill and giler were not mentioned at all . however , despite this official ruling , it is certain hill and giler contributed at least some aspects to the finished film .\nthat\u2019s too bad because the film feels truest when michael is grappling with his contradictions . his struggle , as well as the film\u2019s moody thoughtfulness , the lumet touches and the agreeable presence of sydney pollack in a small role , overtly invokes 1970s american cinema . but mr . lumet and mr . pollack didn\u2019t give hollywood its social conscience , which comes and goes and depends on the audience to sustain it . in some ways , michael is a grimmer , compromised version of erin brockovich , the freewheeling legal clerk in the short skirts who leads the charge against social injustice in mr . soderbergh\u2019s populist 2000 drama . ( michael has to be dragged . ) the main difference is that the earlier film\u2019s optimism feels like a faded signal from a faraway land .\nthe third transmission falls along the lines of a horror / love story where both interested parties find the wife , and the final twisted showdown comes to a peak . even in the ending , the line between what is actually happening and what is being fed into their minds by the signal is blurry .\n. given how obsessed with sex he is ( he has almost no lines not revolving around women ) he may have been affected by the signal as well and become obsessed to the point of not noticing the chaos around him .\nwith so many horror flicks out there to watch , it\u2019s completely understandable that one or two of the really good ones may have escaped your netflix queue . the signal , written and directed by david bruckner , dan bush and jacob gentry , is one of those . a film about a group of citizens living in the seemingly quiet fictional metropolis of terminus , the narrative is divided into three segments\u2014crazy in love , the jealousy monster and escape from terminus . the film provides an almost indefinable blend of genres\u2014horror , science fiction , comedy and the deep , dark relationship drama .\n: jim parsons maintains a supernatural level of obliviousness to the situation around him . this adds some great comedy to the film ' s second act , but unfortunately leads to\nlean budget does creep in , the sound design is still pretty solid . the broadcasts of the signal itself are backed by a hellish amount of bass , and even if the surrounds are used a little unevenly , they ' re really effective at ratcheting up the tension . the film ' s dialogue can sound kind of strained at times , but that ' s not all that surprising for a lower - budgeted flick .\nif transmission one slowly raises the film ' s horror to a pitch of explosive intensity , then jacob gentry ' s transmission two : the jealousy monster disorients the viewer even further with a violent swing in mood . this time showing the insanity that has afflicted terminus from the deluded perspective of the insane themselves , the film ' s middle section plays itself out as high farce - with a bodycount .\nthe hap hapgood story ( sd , 9 minutes ) - - glimpsed for a few , brief moments at the beginning of the film , the directors\u2019 2003 slasher short is available here in its full glory . i found myself shrugging my shoulders on this one , but completists and fans of the \u201c48 hour film project\u201d will get a kick out of its inclusion .\ndirectors\u2019 commentary - - directors david bruckner , dan bush , and jacob gentry sit down for a unique discussion about the trials and tribulations of bringing a $ 50 , 000 production like \u2018the signal\u2019 to life . however , instead of patting each other on the back for their individual contributions to the film , each transmission\u2019s director is kicked out of the room so his two remaining comrades can talk about his portion of the film behind his back . it\u2019s a small but crucial decision that easily makes this track worth a listen . to my relief , i found that the directors have a wonderful report with each other as well as a knack for avoiding technical chit - chat in favor of engaging accounts of the low - budget production . they discuss their casting process , their work with the actors , the genesis of the film , and the areas in which they succeeded and failed in their final visions . in the end , if you even remotely enjoyed \u2018the signal , \u2019 be sure to listen to this excellent commentary .\nsilsila is the\nmanager\nof one traffic signal , that is he collects the\nhafta\n( protection tax ) from each signal squatter plying his trade . there ' s tsunami , a little scavenger boy , there ' s rani - a gujrati girl selling ethnic clothes on the sidewalk , and there ' s dominic - a drug addict and the prostitute who feels for him . then there ' s silsila himself , who ' s an orphan , and reports to jaffer bhai the local goon . jaffer bhai in turn reports to haji the leader of the local mafia . and the hafta , from each traffic signal and territory haji controls , seeps upward to the politicians . life is routine , until silsila and jaffer bhai get caught up in a chain of events which threatens the very source of their livelihood - the traffic signal itself , and silsila must either remain mute with fear or protest . . .\nthe ballad of narayama\nis a japanese film of great beauty and elegant artifice , telling a story of startling cruelty . what a space it opens\u2026\nvampire clay a\nfilm of eerie earthenware and earthworms - that - turn . . . with enough idiosyncrasy to earn itself the s\u2026 urltoken 2 hours ago\nit ?

guy shorthand that calls back to bogart and other classic film leads , but it\u2019s pretty behind the times in the \u201980s . as feminist as claremont seems to be in other places , i\u2019m really surprised that none of the females in his life ever called wolverine out for his condescension .\nhtml public\n- / / w3c / / dtd xhtml 1 . 0 transitional / / en\nurltoken\nakshay kumar seems to be completely influenced by regional content . so after making oh my god ! , which was based on a gujarati play , he is now working on a full fledged marathi film .\nsays ashwini yardi , akshay kumar ' s partner in their production house , grazing goat pictures ,\nmaking a marathi movie was my idea . i am a maharashtrian and i wanted to do a film in my mother tongue in memory of baburao pai , my grandfather , who was one of v . shantaram ' s partners in prabhat film company in the 1920s .\nset in the 50s and 60s , it has been shot entirely in satara during may and june . for the period look and feel , props like old buses and other such vehicles have been used . directed by rajeev patil of national award winning marathi film , jogwa fame , the film is currently in the post -

factor run where she has any agency of her own in any story .\nonly tangentially related to this episode \u2014 the wildfire smoke basically blanketed large chunks of western canada this entire past week after the episode recording .\ni suddenly want to go back and re - read mutant x . havoc has been one of my favourite characters since i started reading comics with peter david\u2019s x - factor run , and i was really excited that he was basically going to get his own corner of the multiverse as his private playground .\ni remember the first 12 issue arc being not terrible and having some interesting concepts \u2014 i also really liked that the universe where havoc was one of the premiere heroes was a lot more peaceful and had less mutant prejudice \u2014 but it quickly went off the rails following that story\u2019s conclusion . perhaps not coincidentally , the book had originally only been pitched as a 12 issue mini - series , and it\u2019s initial sales were good enough for the editors to push howard mackie to expand it into an on - going .\nalso , the juggernaut may be a jerk , but he\u2019s great at being a jerk . has there been a cold open i\u2019m forgetting explaining his powers ?\nbased on a couple cameo appearences ( ie rick redfern and joanie caucus in days of future past , as well as a lot of other drop ins ) the doonsbury characters exist in the marvel universe . so how many are actually mutants themselves ? i seem to recall mike doonsbury making one of his summer daydreams come true\u2026which sounds a lot like franklin richards level reality warping to me .\nso i\u2019m curious about the view of gender identity in the dazzler / juggernaut situation . i think you\u2019re right 90 % of the time on this . but i read this juggernaut thing really differently .\ni saw it as juggernaut saying , the next person you randomly attack for no reason might kill you , especially if you insist on picking fights way outside your weight class . condescending ? totally . paternalistic ? definitely . but he\u2019s also not wrong . had she done that with sabertooth , the beyonder , or any one of a dozen other hardcore villains , she\u2019d be a corpse . especially if he\u2019s a fan of the music , i can totally see him saying that .\ni\u2019m all for no - limits feminism , and there\u2019s a lot that really troubles me about some of the sexist coding in comics . but this struck me as a small dog picking a fight with a big dog , and the big one telling him to knock it off . rather than a \u201cwomens should know their place\u201d thing .\nactually , i shouldn\u2019t have said no reason . as you\u2019re correct nearly taking people out with cars is horrible , still . the rest stands .\nthe whole thing would read as less condescending and sexist if he wasn\u2019t calling her things like \u201cdoll\u201d and \u201cfrail\u201d the whole time . incidentally , was there a time in human history when people actually referred to women as \u201cfrail\u201d ? i\u2019ve literally never heard that time used outside of a claremont comic .\nthat last sentence should read \u201cthat term , \u201d not \u201cthat time . \u201d word press really needs an edit button .\ntouche\u2019 sam . \u201cfrail\u201d is pretty bad . but i think condescending is definitely supposed to be the point here . while i don\u2019t think sexism is appropriate , from a villain like juggernaut it\u2019s at least not a surprise . nor portrayed as something to be emulated .\nyeah , this moment gave me pause too . i mean , we\u2019re talking about what claremont intended juggernaut to express . i think he was trying to show juggernaut as a ) confused that dazzler , who is a pop singer as far as he knows , is trying to fight him \u2013 and b ) conflicted because this is someone who he really likes and has positive feelings for and she\u2019s fighting him . he doesn\u2019t want to hurt her .\njuggernaut just wants her to stop , and to not be involved in this world . reading sexism out of it needs us to assume that claremont intended this scene to show juggernaut as a sexist . why would he suddenly do that ? he certainly hasn\u2019t been portrayed that way up till now . or we have to assume that claremont himself is being sexist by writing \u201cnormal\u201d dialogue which reflects his internalized misogyny . the gender politics of the x - men up to this point don\u2019t give me much confidence in this theory .\ni can easily imagine juggernaut behaving roughly the same way if he had come up against a male celebrity mutant part time superhero of whom he was a big fan .\nyeah , i agree with this sentiment . i can picture him saying the same thing after beating the shit out of josh guthrie .\nso you guys are getting pretty close to fall of the mutants , eh ? you\u2019ve covered up to uncanny x - men 219 ( fall of the mutants omnibus starts at 220 ) , new mutants up to 54 ( fall starts at 55 ) , and x - factor up to 15 ( fall starts at 18 ) . obviously this event is huge , so i\u2019m curious as to how you plan to cover it . thanks !\nespecially as it\u2019s less \u201cone big story\u201d and more \u201cthree stories united thematically . \u201d\n. . . i also want them to cover the daredevil issues somewhere in there , because the notion that daredevil of all books , had crossovers for this and inferno is just . . . awesome .\nthe fact that daredevil had crossovers is pretty self - explanatory \u2013 ann nocenti was writing daredevil at the time . however , she did a really good job at making the stories tangential . they weren\u2019t necessary to understand the x - men world , but the backdrop usually did a good job of making the daredevil story richer . daredevil 252 ( ground zero ) is a very good example in a very nocenti - an way .\ni know the background of them and the nocenti / claremont relationship and they\u2019re loose , tangential relationship , but they\u2019re still wonderful comics .\nreally enjoyable little surrealistic digressions and really go in some fun directions . inessential , sure . but nocenti gets a lot out of dd fighting a vacuum and a truck - eating dentist .\nthank you for making me care for havok . i\u2019v always seen him as rather blend character before hearing this episode . also , i would vote for this era\u2019s psylocke any day of the weak instead of the later sexified psylocke .\nmagneto should not needle wanda about having grandkids , as that might lead to her rewriting all of reality again .\nthis episode reminded me of havok\u2019s \u201chow about alex\u201d speech ( where he advocated rejecting all labels instead of being called a mutant ) . while it was certainly problematic , i thought it felt like something he would say . the character here is someone who isn\u2019t necessarily hateful of his powers ( like rogue ) , but is someone who wants to reject all the responsibility that goes with them . his goal is normalcy . so , as long as you don\u2019t read into the speech an editorial belief that it\u2019s the correct thought , i thought it was a good addition to that issue .\nyou know , the \u201cm - word\u201d speech always struck me as something alex would say , too . not just because of his personality , either . he is a good - looking , white , cis - gender male who expects to be treated as an individual \u2013 not a member ( or representative ) of a \u201cgroup . \u201d someone like that has been raised to believe that they , as an individual , are only an individual . then throw in alex\u2019s individual psychology ( as you mention , \u201cnormalcy\u201d being his big goal ) . then throw in his leading an avengers team , the ( nominal ) point of which was to show mutant - human cooperation ( and specifically to show how mutants were heroes just like the avengers ) and i agree that it\u2019s a natural thing for him to say . like you say , so long as you don\u2019t read it as the editorial position ( which didn\u2019t occur to me on my first read of it , honestly ) , it reads as a very reasonable thing for someone with alex\u2019s particular background , personality , and experiences to say .\n\u201cheads up\u2013 if havok\u2019s position in ua # 5 really upset you , it\u2019s time to drown yourself hobo piss . seriously , do it . it\u2019s the only solution . \u201d\ni think any attempt at subtley is out the window . ( the tweet was later deleted , but too many sites picked up on it for it to be ignored )\nsee also the later issue where rogue objects to havok\u2019s comments and instead of a potentially interesting debate , it become a sequence of wanda telling rogue she\u2019s wrong , without offering any proper justification . of course , the fact that alex can pass as a blond white guy ( and rogue and wanda are both human norm too ) gives a very\u201d off\u201d feel to the whole thing .\nkitty\u2019s rebuttal in either uncanny or all - new \u2013i don\u2019t recall which off the top of my head\u2013remains the gold standard for on - page smackdowns as far as i\u2019m concerned .\nit is interesting to watch the different writers provide commentary via the mouths of their respective current characters to \u201csmack down\u201d commentary from other writers in a shared universe with which they disagree . reminds me of those \u201cheroes texting\u201d memes only more\u2026 fulfilling and relevant and , even , less cringe worthy ? maybe ? but when it comes to them bickering / commenting in real - life social media shit gets awkward .\noh , and in light of this sort of thing , i really find it interesting that in the pre - inferno new mutants issues where they riff with the hellions they proudly accept being called \u201cthe muties\u201d by emma\u2019s students .\nwell , i\u2019m not arguing that the guy handles criticism well , just that it\u2019s something that fits what alex summers would say . maybe i\u2019m too charitable towards mr . remender , but i\u2019m fine with the speech existing for exploring his character ( and the whole idea of mutants \u201cpassing\u201d and how that affects mutant politics ) . and , as pointed out below , it set up kitty pryde\u2019s rebuttal , which is also very much in character ( except that she actually managed to make a point without resorting to racial slurs this time ! ) .\ni could be wrong , but i thought that there might have been some notice somewhere that places \u201cx - men versus avengers\u201d miniseries in the first trip to new york that havok took .\nhmmm . it was coming out the same time , and according to the marvel wikia , havok and dazzler are in every issue .\ni hated these issues when they came out . of course , it\u2019s been three decades , and i\u2019ve never wanted to reread them , so i can\u2019t say in hindsight if it would have been better rereading with later context . but at this point :\n1 ) my favorite x - men are all off the team . ( though hey , this arc was actually coming out the same time as excalibur started , meaning that i could read about many of those favorites somewhere else ! )\n2 ) the characters replacing them are all characters i have no connection to whatsoever . with the possible exception of dazzler\u2019s origin story back in the byrne days , i\u2019d never read any comic with these characters in it before they showed up in x - men around this time . ( it does seem surprising to me that i hadn\u2019t read anything with havok in it\u2026 does he maybe show up at scott\u2019s wedding or something ? ) ( how cool would it have been if a couple of the new mutants had graduated up to the x - men instead ? )\n3 ) these issues are just a random jumble of things . different art ( mostly dodgy ) every issue . plot that revolves around arbitrary crap happening . i mean , two issues in a row things are set off by our \u201cheroes\u201d being nearly run over / run off the road completely by accident ? !\n4 ) twice in two issues we have the gimmick of \u201ci recognize this from my time reading the x - men\u2019s files . \u201d right\u2026\n5 ) the issues are driven by the stars acting stupidly . dazzler taking on juggernaut by himself , when he wasn\u2019t obviously doing something dangerous ? that\u2019s freaking insane . then there\u2019s pretty much everything havok does . also\u2026\n6 ) wiping havok\u2019s mind of his knowledge of meeting the x - men is completely insane and unethical . i mean , beyond the fundamental questions about wiping someone\u2019s mind in any circumstances , isn\u2019t the knowledge that someone has been targeting x - men and related mutants literally a matter of life and death for havok ? there\u2019s every reason to think that he and lorna will be targets of the marauders , and of course as this issue reveals they actually are targets .\n8 ) finally , the brood on earth is not a subplot you can forget about for a year ! so at the end of # 218 alex knows it\u2019s vital to contact the x - men about the brood . at the beginning of # 219 he\u2019s visited the x - men and had his mind erased . why didn\u2019t he just call them ? if if alex somehow forgot to tell the x - men why he came to visit them , why didn\u2019t betsy at least notice it in his mind when she was heavily editing it ? this is a potential extinction event for the human race , two of the heroes know about it and realize how serious it is , yet it is completely dropped without a word .\nhonestly , i\u2019ve always assumed this represented some sort of editorial interference in plotting . something like \u201csorry chris , you\u2019ve got to drop everything instantly and start a crossover next month ! \u201d\nwhoops , got confused about the timeline . this was still a year before excalibur , so my favorite x - men were all completely sidelined rather than appearing elsewhere .\ni think plan omega\u2019s intent was that the x - men could stop reacting to everything and begin to go after their enemies . unfortunately , it was never really stated that way and we won\u2019t see it implemented until the australia period , with some mixed results ( i think about half of those issues were the x - men reacting to some situation ) .\nwhen you put it like that it sounds like a good idea , but what they actually do is leave as large as possible a target for those enemies to attack and force them to react yet again . ( or just hang their friends out to dry , as they did with havok and polaris . )\na good episode that actually seems to tie these issues together than the issues themselves ever did .\ncoming out of the massacre into this prolonged dirge of an arc ( if it can be called that ) was the start of the issues where i started to lose interest , not only because that was a very stupid thing to ignore , but because the main x - team as they\u2019d lost kitty and kurt and the increased focus on wolverine didn\u2019t interest me that much . ( the casual ignoring of the space shark didn\u2019t help as it was just too big a thing to ignore lightly )\nwhilst technically betsy might be captain britain\u2019s little sister ( which you mention at least twice ) , it\u2019d be more accurate to say she\u2019s his twin sister , i\u2019m not even sure who the older of the two actually is , nor by how many minutes , but someone else might i\u2019m sure .\noh and the \u201clet\u2019s kill him\u201d bit again ? ? i\u2019ve said it before , i\u2019ll say it again , psylocke is frighteningly keen to kill people since her introduction , generally a little too kill - happy for my tastes , or at least for someone else not to pull her up on it .\nthe third doctor was employed as \u201cscientific advisor\u201d to unit whilst stuck on earth and was officially under the brigadiers command , though the doctor cheerfully ignored him when it suited him , but respected him immensely , and the doctor has never officially resigned his position .\nwhen the much loved actor who played the brigadier died in 2011 , the series producer and showrunner steven moffatt said in his tribute \u201c\u2026 out of all the people the doctor has met , in all of space and time , nicholas courtney\u2019s brigadier alistair gordon lethbridge - stewart was the only one who was ever his boss . \u201d\nand in a later episode , the then current scientific advisor , the brigadiers daughter kate , says of the 12th doctor ; \u201cwelcome to the only planet in the universe where we get to say this : he\u2019s on the payroll . \u201d\nsorry , i\u2019ve been a doctor who nerd a lot longer than i\u2019ve been an x - men nerd . i\u2019ll try to get it out of my system before your excalibur coverage starts .\nmarvel has a pretty spotty history with scientist characters , but sometimes they really hit something dead - on . havok and polaris as phd students who only want to be left alone to do their research , but instead have to constantly deal with real - world crises and being possessed , is such a perfect plot set - up for me . i wish it had been explored further ( or revisited in a drs . havok and polaris secret wars miniseries ) .\ni just got back from pax prime and am still catching up on work , but i\u2019d like to write a piece for the blog about exactly that sometime . keep an eye out ; hopefully i\u2019ll get to that before too long ! ( and thanks for asking ! )\ni hope it will at least take a moment to have a jerry seinfeld style \u201cwhat\u2019s the deal with ultimate longshot ? \u201d because i\u2019m still trying to recover from that .\nit was a radical upside - down , indeed . i\u2019ve got to admit i liked him a lot , though \u2013so shocking !\noh , man . we are now up to where i started collecting x - books on my own , instead of borrowing from a friend . \u2013 the havok issue was the first one i bought for myself , and it made a halfway decent jumping - on point . this , x - factor 17 and whatever issue of classic x - men came out that month ( think it was the reprint of 99 ) were where i started , and ran straight through until the 90s happened to the entire line .\ni didn\u2019t get to these issues until i was far down the rabbit hole of x - men addiction ; actually i think i got them as reprints of \u201csabertooth classic\u201d in the \u201990s\u2026 ick\u2026 but getting to my point , the bit about psylocke suggesting they just outright murder alex always struck me as the most important bit for this period . her transformation in \u201cacts of vengeance\u201d just seems to be a natural progression over the post \u201cmassacre\u201d era that her battle with creed hinted at , but truly came to the fore , with this arc .\ni have also noticed her brother , brian , was a bit of an epic , hard drinkin\u2019 fist full o\u2019 assholes around this time in excalibur . toss in jamie and we have an extremely interesting dynamic of a family of mostly heroes that is still , generally , a bunch of jerks . their interactions with the summers clan has depths that have shamefully not yet been explored .\n\u2026and sorry to keep commenting but this is totally an amazing piece of david wynne\u2019s art and just listened to his spots on fantasticast . fuckin\u2019 love that dude and thank you all for introducing me to his work\njust realized i put this in the as mentioned in thread by accident . powers that be , feel free to delete that ! ( sorry . )\npsylocke\u2019s suggestion that havok needs to be killed is pretty bonkers . ( havok is an auxiliary x - man and she presents basically no good reason for killing him ! ) despite that , it seems to indicate an interesting mandate for the character that claremont never totally got around to fleshing out : that despite those prissy pink pajamas she\u2019s meant to be ruthlessly pragmatic and actually kind of shady . we\u2019ll see this expressed again again from time to time \u2014 like when she mentally pushes the team through the siege perilous against their wills\u2013 but it never quite develops into a real story . ( this , to me , is related to but separate from the more often explored but somewhat less interesting notion that she longs to be more physically imposing . )\nthe dark turn the book seems to be taking at this point is actually pretty exciting on an issue by issue basis . it\u2019s too bad that it 1 ) ends up amounting to not all that much and 2 ) makes hardly any sense if you think about it too hard .\ni think juggernaut\u2019s skull - cap first appeared in marvel team - up # 150 , which was also the last issue of that run of the series . the story has juggy giving black tom the crystal gym of cyttorak and tom not appreciating becoming all big and juggernauty . it\u2019s set while rachel was still on the team as just rachel , not phoenix . haven\u2019t read it in ages , and sadly it\u2019s not available on marvel unlimited .\nthe juggernaut secondary skull - cap actually made its first appearance in marvel team - up # 150 ( which happens to be my first exposure to an x - men story ever ! woot ) . it\u2019s actually quite ingenious . since his helmet is the one thing protecting him from those pesky telepaths and every battle with the x - men essentially boils down to everyone trying to get his helmet off so that a telepath can knock him down , why not provide an added level of protection , with a second , even more tightly fitted helmet underneath the first one ? \ud83d\ude42\nif you havent read this mtu story , you should , i think it also bleeds into the main book continuity at some point . in this story rogue absorbs juggernaut\u2019s powers turning into juggerrogue , which i distinctly remember getting referenced later on .\nsave my name , email , and website in this browser for the next time i comment .\nart by david wynne . prints and cards available until 8 / 30 / 2015 at the shop , or contact david to purchase the original .\nthe opening gimmick who cried wolf .

the buried giant of the title is an allegory for the buried hatchet ; the repression of hatreds , resentments and the desire for violent redress . it prevents justice being attained , but also impedes the never - ending cycle of tit - for - tat .\nif there are rare moments in the buried giant when the plot does teeter into pastiche , and the swords and sorcery can seem a tad silly , then these are more than compensated for by a power and a strangeness that are , in the shakespearean sense of the word , weird . \u201cthere\u2019s a journey we must go on , and no more delay \u2026\u201d it is surely no coincidence that these words of beatrice to her husband , displayed prominently on the book\u2019s jacket , should echo the haunting final lines of kent in king lear : \u201ci have a journey , sir , shortly to go . / my master calls me ; i must not say no . \u201d old age and memory loss , suffering , love and war : what shakespeare explored in the eerie setting of pre - roman britain , ishiguro explores in the context of a period of history barely less mysterious . for all the deconstruction the buried giant performs on its manifold sources and inspirations , the ultimate measure of ishiguro\u2019s achievement is that his novel is more than worthy to take its place alongside them . the quest undertaken by axl and beatrice is not merely a search for their son , but one that follows in the footsteps of sir gawain , and tennyson\u2019s king arthur , and frodo . the novel\u2019s parting assurance is affecting precisely because it is so hard - won : \u201cbut god will know the slow tread of an old couple\u2019s love for each other , and understand how bleak shadows make part of its whole . \u201d\nit was a large lovely garden , with soft green grass . here and there over the grass stood beautiful flowers like stars , and there were twelve peach - trees that in the spring - time broke out into delicate blossoms of pink and pearl , and in the autumn bore rich fruit . the birds sat on the trees and sang so sweetly that the children used to stop their games in order to listen to them .

' for on the palms of the child ' s hands were the prints of two nails , and the prints of two nails were on the little feet .\nwhat i feel , confronted with these photos , is not just a deep kinship , but also a form of continuity . we are here together and the only way to make ourselves at home is to share the land with these others , the animals which , as shepard remarked , make us human . this was a view held by many berliners back in the time of the wall , as von reiswitz recalled when we spoke at his studio : \u201cduring the time of the wall , the zoo was a sort of local recreational area for people from west berlin . this zoo was like a zoo inside a zoo during that time . so , people living in berlin were very close to these animals , because everybody was in a zoo . \u201d\nthere are many instances of that scar in barker\u2019s remarkable documentary , an intensely moving account of the arab spring that focuses on the stories of prominent revolutionaries across three different countries : there is osama ben - sadik , a libyan man and virginia - resident whose son , american - born muhannad , leaves behind his life in the united states to join in the fight against muammar gaddafi . in syria we meet motaz murrad and ghassan yazzin , leaders of peace movements , both of them convinced that non - violent protests could inspire reform in the assad regime . then there are sisters maryam and zainab alkhawaja , who join their human activist father abdulhadi alkhawaja to fight against the dictatorship of the al khalifa family in bahrain by utilizing pacifist methods .\neven when people are aware of their past misdeeds , can they expect forgiveness ? in a scene in a monastery , wistan challenges a monk on the religious belief that prayer and self - flagellation will absolve crimes .\nthe self - sacrificing sense of moral necessity felt by the principals here is stirring , as are the numerous frightening sequences of street combat .

' i believe the spring has come at last , ' said the giant ; and he jumped out of bed and looked out .\nas someone who has read all of ishiguro ' s previous works i was of course more than excited to finally get my hands on a copy of the buried giant . oh boy , if only that excitement hadn ' t been sourly crushed by the actual contents of this novel . the buried giant is very different from all of ishiguro ' s other novels . in fact it ' s so different that i can ' t even compare it to any of his previous novels . the main difference is of course that this is essentially a fantasy novel . now i ' ll be the first to\nuntil 2015 the skeleton was hung alongside a model whale in the mammals gallery and wasn\u2019t in full view , but in her stunning new home , where you are able to walk underneath and see her from all angles , she is even more spectacular .\noh boy , this is the book that caused such uproar among ishiguro fans ! before you pick up this novel , please believe me when i say this is going to be nothing like any of his previous work . so if you are resistant to change , you might want to skip this one . don\u2019t expect it to be the remains of the day , and definitely don\u2019t think this is going to be the next never let me go . in fact this book won\u2019t even be set in our own time or even plane of reality . on the surface of it all , the buried giant is\nyet are you so certain , good mistress , you wish to be free of this mist ? is it not better some things remain hidden from our minds ?\nit may be so for some , father , but not for us . axl and i wish to have again the happy moments we shared together . to be robbed of them is as if a thief came in the night and took what ' s most precious from us .\nwrapped around the three accounts are slickly produced graphics ( scored with soaring music ) that invoke popular uprisings before and beyond the arab spring , from the american revolution to more recent upheavals in poland , south africa , china , burma and other countries . though the filmmakers rather dubiously intermix quotes from tyrants and murderers such as lenin and che guevara with others from democratic and non - violent figures including nelson mandela and martin luther king , jr . , the implicit point that all revolutions stem from a universal hunger for freedom is nicely offset by the specificity of the three stories we witness , which illustrate not just the commonalities but also the differences among recent revolts in the arab world .\nnevertheless , ishiguro is too subtle and complex a novelist to rest content with such a message . the memory loss that may serve a troubled people as a blessing cannot help but threaten the individual with the dissolution of his or her self . at the heart of the buried giant , luminous amid all the dragons and warring knights , is a deeply affecting portrait of marital love , and of how even the most precious memories can end up vulnerable . axl and beatrice are an aged couple who , in the grip of the mysterious amnesia that has afflicted the whole of britain , abruptly decide to visit a son that they had forgotten so much as existed . in the course of their journey , they meet a boatman in the ruins of a roman villa , whose duty it is to ferry people to an island of the dead . only if a couple can convince him of their devotion will he allow them to travel together . from that moment on , axl and beatrice are haunted by a dread that they would fail such a test , and be separated for ever . \u201caxl and i wish to have again the happy moments we shared together . to be robbed of them is as if a thief came in the night and took what\u2019s most precious from us . \u201d\none day the giant came back . he had been to visit his friend the cornish ogre , and had stayed with him for seven years . after the seven years were over he had said all that he had to say , for his conversation was limited , and he determined to return to his own castle . when he arrived he saw the children playing in the garden .\nyou ' ve long set your heart against it , axl , i know . but it ' s time now to think on it anew . there ' s a journey we must go on , and no more delay . . .\nthe buried giant begins as a couple set off across a troubled land of mist and rain in the hope of finding a son they have not seen in years . sometimes savage , often intensely moving , kazuo ishiguro ' s first novel in nearly a decad\nthen the spring came , and all over the country there were little blossoms and little birds . only in the garden of the selfish giant it was still winter . the birds did not care to sing in it as there were no children , and the trees forgot to blossom . once a beautiful flower put its head out from the grass , but when it saw the notice - board it was so sorry for the children that it slipped back into the ground again , and went off to sleep . the only people who were pleased were the snow and the frost . ' spring has forgotten this garden , ' they cried , ' so we will live here all the year round . ' the snow covered up the grass with her great white cloak , and the frost painted all the trees silver . then they invited the north wind to stay with them , and he came . he was wrapped in furs , and he roared all day about the garden , and blew the chimney - pots down . ' this is a delightful spot , ' he said , ' we must ask the hail on a visit . ' so the hail came . every day for three hours he rattled on the roof of the castle till he broke most of the slates , and then he ran round and round the garden as fast as he could go . he was dressed in grey , and his breath was like ice .\nin itself , this promiscuous mixing of influences and periods within a fantasy novel is hardly original to ishiguro . george rr martin , for instance , has always performed it with particular aplomb , fusing plot lines drawn from the wars of the roses with locations that plainly draw on hadrian\u2019s wall or the steppes of genghis khan . the buried giant , though , unlike a song of ice and fire , makes play with the gaps and the seams . they are designed to show . the shimmering of literary influences within ishiguro\u2019s prose is like that of memories within a fading mind : fragments shored against ruin . yet always , haunting the novel , lurks the possibility that the memories themselves may be false . the buried giant cannot help but exist in the shadow of the near - total oblivion that has claimed the period ishiguro is writing about . one character worries that god himself may be afflicted by amnesia \u2013 \u201cand if a thing is not in god\u2019s mind , then what chance of it remaining in those of mortal men ? \u201d ishiguro is less certain than tolkien that what has been forgotten can be redeemed .\nfor the title sequence itself i worked with a very small team . the mill ' s team consisted of three animators \u2013 justin sucara , victor duncan , and greg park \u2013 who did a brilliant job of bringing the designs , textures , and concept to life , two producers , and myself as the sole designer and director . i also worked with the film ' s editor , josh altman , who was a fundamental shorthand . we were all eager to make the best of this project as we knew what a great film this is . everyone gave it their best and we made an extremely demanding delivery of 13 : 22 minutes of full - on design and animation in roughly 4 weeks . with a project like this , it ' s a true labor of love with all involved !\nbut the immediacy of such scenes isn\u2019t really helped by all the filigree barker imposes to provide a big - picture perspective . there are innumerable overly fussy black - and - white graphics interludes ( by vfx outfit the mill ) mashing up imagery and headlines from practically every historical freedom struggle imaginable . adding yet more onscreen text are too many quotes encompassing everyone from jesus to che guevara , mao tsetung , martin luther king jr . , nelson mandela and joseph stalin . of course the issues involved in arab spring uprisings are universal , but so much extraneous material seems to suggest that viewers won\u2019t grasp that unless they\u2019re hammered with reminders of more familiar , similar fights closer to home . at the same time , the pic provides little of the specific backgrounding that would make it more accessible to those not already well versed in contemporary middle eastern politics .\n' my own garden is my own garden , ' said the giant ; ' any one can understand that , and i will allow nobody to play in it but myself . ' so he built a high wall all round it , and put up a notice - board ."]}

profile , gently sloping sides , the cast iron crepe pan makes a unique and decorative addition to any stovetop . ideal for preparing traditional crepes or pancakes , the smooth cooking surface of this crepe pan helps batter spread thinly and heat evenly .\nwhether topped with rich chocolate and powdered sugar for dessert or filled with fruit for a weekend breakfast , crepes have become a dish internationally identified with france as a whole , though the thin pancakes originated in the region of brittany .\nenameled cast iron is a remarkable and robust material that performs well with modern requirements for food preparation and cooking . whether you choose to stir - fry , slow - cook a casserole , sear a steak or bake a cake , there is a shape that is suitable . cast iron performs well for either slow cooking or high - temperature searing .\ncast iron can be used reliably on any heat source , including induction , and with any oven or grill . it has the ability to retain heat efficiently , which allows for use of lower heat settings in stovetop and oven cooking . on the table , a hot covered dish will keep food hot for second servings .\ncast iron can also be used to keep foods cold . a chilled dish becomes an ideal cold food server on a hot summer day . it can also be placed in the freezer for food storage or advanced food preparation .\nremove all packaging and labels . wash the pan in hot , soapy water , then rinse and dry thoroughly . your pan is now ready to be used and does not require any further preparation .\nle creuset cast iron cookware can be used on all heat sources including gas , electric solid plate or radiant ring , vitro - ceramic glass , induction , and ovens fired by gas , oil , coal or wood . when using any glass - topped stove , always lift the pan when moving it ; never slide it , as this may damage the stovetop or the base of the pan .\nalways match the pan\u2019s base size to the stovetop heat zone to maximize efficiency , and to prevent overheating of the pan sides or damage to the handles .\ngas flames must always be confined to the base area , and must never extend around the sidewalls of the pan . long handles should be positioned safely where they do not hang over the front of the stove or other heat zones .\nmedium or low heat will provide the best results for cooking , including frying and searing . allow the pan to heat gradually and thoroughly for even and efficient cooking results . once the pan is hot , almost all cooking can be continued on lower settings .\nhigh heat temperatures should only be used for boiling water for vegetables or pasta , or for reducing the consistency of stocks or sauces . high heats should never be used to preheat a pan before lowering the heat for cooking . cast iron retains heat so efficiently that overheating will cause food to burn or stick .\nwith the exception of grills , the enamel surface is not ideal for dry cooking .\nyour choice of liquid , oil , fat or butter should completely cover the base before heating begins . do not leave the pan unattended , and do not allow a pan to boil dry , as this may permanently damage the enamel .\nfor deep frying , the maximum oil level must not exceed 1 / 3 full . this depth allows sufficient height above the oil for it to rise once foods are added . an oil frying thermometer should be used for safety , and a lid should be readily available in case of overheating or flaring .\nthe vitreous enamel surface is impermeable and therefore ideal for raw or cooked food storage , and for marinating with acidic ingredients such as wine .\nfor stirring comfort and surface protection , le creuset silicone tools are recommended . wooden or heat - resistant plastic tools may also be used . metal tools , spoons or balloon whisks may be used , but require special care \u2013 they should not be scraped over the enamel surface . do not knock these on the rim of the pan .\nhand - held electric or battery - operated beaters should not be used . their blades will damage the enamel . knives or utensils with sharp edges should not be used to cut foods inside a pan .\ncast iron handles , stainless steel knobs and phenolic knobs will become hot during stovetop and oven use . always use a dry thick cloth or oven mitts when lifting .\nalways place a hot pan on a wooden board , trivet or le creuset silicone mat\u2014never on an unprotected surface .\nthe black phenolic lid knobs on our signature range of enameled cast iron are heat - resistant to 480\u00b0f / 250\u00b0c . the black phenolic lid knobs on our classic range of enameled cast iron are heat - resistant to 375\u00b0f / 190\u00b0c . products with integral cast iron handles or stainless steel knobs can be used at any oven temperature . pans with wooden handles or knobs must not be placed in the oven .\ndo not place any cookware on the floors of ovens with cast iron linings . this will increase the cooking temperature inside the oven , resulting in an increased cooking rate with detrimental effects on food . do not drag cookware across the floor of the liners . for best results always place on a shelf or rack .\ngrills may be preheated to reach a hot surface temperature for searing and caramelization . this advice does not apply to any other products .\nfor correct grilling and searing , it is important that the cooking surface is sufficiently hot before cooking begins . sear lines from ribbed grills will not be produced if the pan surface is too cool , or if the food is too wet . place the empty pan on medium heat and allow it to heat for several minutes . do not add oil to the cold pan\u2014the oil may become too hot and smoke .\ntake a few drops of water on your fingers and scatter over the hot surface . if they sizzle and evaporate almost immediately it is hot and ready for use . if the water produces steam and has no sizzle , heat the pan a little longer and repeat the water test again . when the surface is hot enough , lightly oil it with cooking spray or brush it with oil using a le creuset silicone basting brush . vegetable , ground nut or corn oils are recommended . olive oil may cause excessive smoking .\nonce a patina covers the cooking surface very little oil will be necessary . for distinct sear lines , leave the food undisturbed on the surface for several minutes . if the food is moved too quickly the lines will be poor , and steam from the food may be released onto the surface .\nany food for grilling or searing must be quite dry before it is placed on the hot surface . wet foods will not achieve good sear lines and may result in a steamed appearance and flavor . use paper towels to pat off excess moisture from foods . oil can then be brushed over the food if desired . foods that have been marinated should also have excess moisture removed with paper towels .\nfor frying and sauteing , the fat should be hot before adding food . bring the pan and fat or oil to the correct temperature together .\noil is hot enough when there is a gentle ripple in its surface . for butter and other fats , bubbling or foaming indicates the correct temperature . if either begins smoking , or if butter begins browning , it is too hot and should be cooled slightly before proceeding . the quickest way to do this is to remove the pan from the heat source for a few moments . for longer shallow frying a mixture of oil and butter gives excellent results .\ndo not plunge a hot pan into cold water . while le creuset\u2019s enamel is designed to be the most durable on the market , thermal shock may still occur , resulting in cracking or loss of enamel .\nif there are food residues , fill the pan with warm water and let soak for 15 to 20 minutes before washing . a brush can be useful for removing small food deposits , or for cleaning between the ribs on grills . do not use scourers or abrasive cleaners on the cooking surface . nylon or soft abrasive pads or brushes can be used to remove stubborn residues . to avoid damaging the enamel , do not use metallic pads or harsh abrasive cleaning agents .\nlight stains or metal marks caused by metal tools can be removed with le creuset cookware cleaner . an occasional cleaning with this product will also retain the new appearance of your pans . it can be purchased on this website or from your local retailer .\nnever store pans while they are still damp . store pans in a dry cupboard or airy space away from steam .\nmaintain the tightness of all handles and knobs by checking and retightening them regularly .\nle creuset enameled cast iron is extremely durable but it may be damaged if accidentally dropped or knocked against a hard surface . please note that this is not covered by our lifetime warranty .\nall pans with integral cast iron , phenolic handles or stainless steel knobs can be washed in the dishwasher . however , constant dishwashing may lead to some dulling of the enamel finish . this is not harmful and will not impair performance . when using the dishwasher always allow the cycle to finish before opening the door . this will ensure the pans are dried thoroughly .\npans with metal handles can be washed in the dishwasher , but this greatly reduces the development of a patina ; as a result , grills and skillets will require oiling for a longer period . pans with wooden handles are not dishwasher - safe .\nsatin black enamel can be found on skillets , grills , frying pans , saute pans , woks , tagines and a number of round and oval casserole dishes . satin black enamel has a smooth feel but is not as glossy as other light - colored interior enamel finishes . it has been specially designed for higher surface temperature cooking , which is not the same as simply using a piece on a high heat .\nwith cast iron , higher surface temperatures can be achieved by allowing any piece to heat thoroughly on a medium setting . this makes the satin black interior ideal for frying , grilling and searing .\nsatin black enamel will keep its good looks and allow a patina to build on its surface with continued use . a patina is the result of the natural oils and fats from foods baking on to the hot surface . the patina should not be cleaned off , as it enhances the cooking performance and the release of foods . it also reduces the need for surface oiling .\nwith the higher surface temperatures achieved during frying , grilling and searing , sugars and some enzymes will cause caramelization . this not only aids in the retention of moisture and flavor , but also produces the sear lines and crusty exterior on grilled meats .\nsince 1925 , le creuset cast iron has been recognized for its strength and durability . cast individually in sand molds , then hand - inspected by french artisans , each piece represents a rich heritage and continues a tradition of lasting , authentic design .\ncast iron distributes heat slowly and evenly over the entire vessel , making it ideal for all forms of cooking , whether slow - cooking , roasting , searing , stir - frying or baking .\nthe glass - like finish in our ovens and braisers promotes caramelization , resists staining and prevents sticking to make cleanup easy .\nthe black interior of our skillets is specially formulated for high -

molina ' s my only u , because of the circumstances surrounding its release , but there ' s more to it than suspicions of exploitation or discomforting underpinnings . it ' s all good .\nno , rain is not overacting here . it just happened that he needs to act like the deceased husband of shin da hye , who ' s got a unique personality , he ' s got to be different also , not the usual rain . remember that the body in him is shin da hye ' s husband , and look at the first few episodes , how shin da hye ' s husband act . maybe it was shown in the same time slot of dots which is very well accepted by viewers , just happened that you guys prefer the story of dots . by the way , i watched both this drama and dots . this is my only opinion . . thank you\ngreat story . . . . interelated plots & characters . rain & oh yeon seo did well & carried the right sense of humour when playing their roles . felt the warmth , pain , hurt as well as the anger with every episodes . lmj da hae is beautiful here but a lot more fun as da ran in big with gong yoo . rain to me is even better here than in full house . all in all . . . i like this drama . . .\nboth were shocked to see the boy apparently float after their mother had been subject to months of scepticism when she claimed her home in gary , indiana , was haunted and all three of her children were possessed by demons . listen to exclusive audio of the demon here\nof course , while da possessed is essentially navarro ' s show , the movie would not have been as convincing if it were not for his support . beverly salviejo , who has been relegated to mostly minor roles in previous films , is utterly delightful as navarro ' s mischievous mom . joy viado , who plays anna ' s strict aunt , proves to be the perfect match for salviejo ' s mix of physical comedy and wit . smokey manaloto , matet de leon , and joey marquez add further color to the bunch .\ndirector joyce bernal makes the most of her cast ' s various styles in comedy , and turns da possessed into a spectacle of sorts , with low - brow humor interspersing with slapstick and other types of jokes that are certain to tickle moviegoers . a lot of the jokes are effective , thanks largely to the cast . the movie only loses steam when it decides to abandon its atmosphere of reckless fun for some degree of logic and the off - putting and totally unnecessary moral lesson that seems to be a requisite for filipino comedies .\nda possessed wastes most of its screen time dragging its feet through its murky story , hinging on hit - or - miss punchlines and elaborate visual gags . despite the film\u2019s mile - a - minute puns , vhong navarro is given very little to do . as a character , ramon fails to bank on the usually sharp - tongued and outgoing navarro . the result is a vhong navarro that feels restrained , closed off , and uncharacteristically shy . but the real disappointment here is that there are remnants of a far better story buried underneath the film\u2019s under - baked crust .\nthe real shame here isn\u2019t that da possessed fails to live up to its potential , but that there\u2019s a wasted opportunity here for vhong navarro . whatever you might think of navarro\u2019s brand of comedy , he is arguably one of the more exciting and underutilized stars of star cinema . unlike the studio\u2019s other big name superstars , navarro\u2019s filmography is as unpredictable as his onscreen personas . from the smooth - operating mr . suave , the quirky superspy agent x44 , to a charming romantic in my only u , navarro\u2019s career has allowed him a level of diversity few other actors appreciate .\nlee hae - joon ( rain ) is a perfect man with good looking appearance . he works as a section chief in the women\u2019s apparel section at a department store . his body is actually possessed by the spirit of kim young - soo ( kim in - kwon ) who was worked to death .\n( spot . ph ) it would take a special kind of callousness to watch the entirety of joyce bernal ' s da possessed without even acknowledging the suspicious circumstances behind its being made . just a few of months prior to the movie ' release , its main star , dancer - turned - actor vhong navarro , was mauled inside a condominium unit . speculations were made by the public , who were incessantly bombarded with every bit of news about the sensationalized but most unfortunate event . navarro , with the help of his enterprising handlers , has turned into some sort of crusader , using the country ' s legal system for retribution .\ncan i get a respond before watching please please coz im confused : will da - hye fall in love with the spirit of her husband but in the body of lee hae joon or what ? if this is the story i ' ll not watch it . . i want the real lee hae joon to be with her\noh yeon seo is killing it here . . . her acting is superb ! ! ! i love hong nan , yi yeon and tae hwan story . as for rain a . k . a hae joon story , it just felt messy . why bother to make da hye fall in love to him when he only have 2 months to stay on earth . rain acting is really good when he is with hong nan . both of them really funny . but when it comes to da hye scene , i get really frustrayed seeing min jung acting . same face expression and no soul at all . after all , im curious to see the ending .\nda possessed , for all the inanity in display , echoes a lot of the themes of navarro ' s present predicament . beneath the jokes and gags , the movie predominantly tackles revenge against an individual who has eluded the law despite his propensity for violence . navarro , of course , plays his character with indisputable charm and affect , showcasing his trademark talents , whether it be his comedic timing or his dancing moves , to ensure that the actor does not get lost in the character . navarro , by donning ramon ' s clothes and quirks , becomes the unlikely hero who will pave the way for justice to triumph , despite such an immense desire for the more traditional type of vengeance .\nis adidam ' s unique version of the traditional guru purnima celebration . during this celebration , the great and divine guru - function of the divine avatar , adi da samraj , is honored .\npurnima\nmeans\nfull\n. guru purnima is traditionally celebrated during the brightest full moon of the year , usually occuring in july .\nafter watch 10 episodes of this drama i slowly get into the story line . however i have to say that i hope hope and hope that they do not mess up or this drama is going to flop xd . i really like oh yeon so ' s acting ( she is hella funny ) and i kinda ship her with everyone ( lee tae hwan especially , but also rain and even ha nui or yoon park xd ) i think i love her because she still act like han gi tak while rain sometimes kinda creep me out because he is so diffrent then young - soo . the fact is that he surely end up with da hye because i cannot imagine that he will let da hye go and built up a new life on her own ( even if i ship da hye with ji hoon ) . but i ' m kinda curious how hong nan will end up , because i ship her soo much with seungjae but i can never imagine that she will end up with him because she still is han gi tak inside xd\nto sum up i really felt in love with the new side of rains acting , however i cannot feel the chemistry of hae joon and da hye . however i really love this drama since there are some scences that are hilarious and intense and also i love nearly every character , that have a certain image . really refreshing and hopefully a good drama with a good ending\nwhen he was possessed , religious artifacts began flying off the walls and people could hear footsteps and dripping inside his home . scratches also began appearing over his body , which levitated and contorted . his family contacted a catholic priest and an exorcism was performed more than 30 times , sometimes injuring the priest before they were eventually successful . doe went on to have a normal life , according to reports .\nwow ! it ' s a promising drama ! the casts are great . . three of my favorite actors and actresses . . rain , oh yeon - seo , and lee min - jung . . and ! the plot is daebak ! i can ' t even imagine oh yeon - seo acting a tough guy ( since she ' s possessed ) . . i can ' t wait for this drama . . : )\nl actually hope that da - hye would give ji - hoon a chance rather than shove him away that hard , but unwillingly give chance to hae - joon . feel pity for ji - hoon . seung - jae and hong - nan ( gi - tak ) will not happen unless the real hong - nan appears . l hope real hong - nan appears and be a couple with seung - jae , while gi - tak reborn and coupled up with yi - yeon .\non july 10 , 2007 ( fiji time ) , avatar adi da ' s impulse to continue working in the manner of self - submission conclusively vanished , leaving only the sign of his divine self -\nemergence\nwork . only his divine self - revelation , and not any address to the ego in its presumed separateness , enables the process of transcendental spiritual awakening . this event is now celebrated as the great sovereign - avataric holy day of parama - sapta - na sannyas .\nthe charitable assessment here is that west is just trolling , which , with the best will in the world , is still hardly the most edifying sphere of human activity for an apparently time - pushed polymath to indulge in . if he is possessed of the kind of self - awareness occasionally suggested by tlop\u2019s lyrics ( \u201ci love you like kanye loves kanye\u201d he offers on a brief a cappella freestyle ) , he might take a minute out of his pressing schedule to consider that one thing setting him apart from the kind of geniuses he compares himself to is that picasso , galileo , steve jobs and leonardo da vinci seem to have had better things to do with their time than waste it going \u201cyeah , your mum lol\u201d . the uncharitable assessment is that he\u2019s a deluded pillock who actually believes what he\u2019s saying . listening to famous , you do find yourself wondering if anyone else has ever managed to seem so brilliant at what they do and such a thundering cock and balls of a man at exactly the same time .\n@ karin : like rain said , there is no lead characters here . everyone has their own portion and story , so you can ' t pick a or b as the lead . for me , as the story involved around young - soo and gi - tak , they are the leads ( the characters , not the actors ) . you could say that the female leads are da - hye and yi - yeon , as hong - nan is actually gi - tak in female form . then the 2nd male leads are ji - hoon and jae - kook .\nquotations from and / or photographs of avatar adi da samraj used by permission of the copyright owner : \u00a9 thisyear copyrighted materials used with the permission of the avataric samrajya of adidam pty ltd , as trustee for the avataric samrajya of adidam . all rights reserved . none of these materials may be disseminated or otherwise used for any non -

ups , vhong ' s wit and his supporting cast manages to make the movie bearable to watch . but there ' s nothing new to see in this movie , the cast is poorly presented and the story is loses it ' s sensibility halfway across the movie . the script is boring and the plot sequence is too rushed and unbalanced . though the movie does live up it ' s name by presenting it ' s genre the right way ; it shares a decent amount of jokes that can surely make you laugh . it ' s enjoyable not because of the jokes shared within the script , it was enjoyable because of the witty acting and funny actions the actors do ( specifically the supporting actors ) . but also , the director forgets an important aspect in movies : consistency . the movie attracted viewers because of it ' s solid first 1 -

< 3 i so love all the cast . .\nbest storyline for porn all of 16 episodes . what left was just doing it .\ni am a kdrama fanatic and there are very few dramas that have made me actually cry and laugh and scream all within 1 episode . i would highly recommend it . the cast is great , the chemistry between all the characters is amazing , and the the storyline is so refreshing , heartwarming and sad at the same time . definitely one of my favorite kdramas .\nis that it ? i don ' t know but i felt a great sense of emptiness after watching it . something inside me is disturbed and i don ' t know what to do or what to think . i felt like the drama ended contently but i want more and i don ' t know what more do i want . i feel like crazy for this drama and i cannot explain it . this is the first time i watched a drama and felt empty afterwards like i ' m a hollow shell with no sense of purpose . the ending is happy but somehow i felt it lacking and wtf am i talking about ? i don ' t know . mix of emotion for this drama and this is really underrated . this should be one of the most wonderful , beautiful , splendid and well - wrote drama of all times . highly recommended . and if you really feel what i feel , i guarantee you that you will not regret watching this . i cried really hard for the ending . i want a season 2 for a starting love story of oh yeon seo and rain . plssssssssssss . . . . . .\nthank you to the writers who created the story and the splendid actors who brought their characters to life , and to every part of the creative team .\nthis drama had everything ; it is now one of my top all time favorite dramas .\noverall a good drama . not one of my favorites though . i would rate this 6 / 10 . and with that rating , i still think this is way better than dots .\nthis is definitely worth watching . . . made me cry a couple of times too ! it wasn ' t even about how good looking the actors are but it was how they portrayed the characters in the story . very touching but funny as well . great job guys !\nit ' s such a shame that this drama was up against descendants of the sun . imo this drama has a more interesting plot and oh yeonseo and honey lee ' s acting was amazing . i live for the womance between the two .\nto tncdel , i just want to say that rain is handsome and his wife didn ' t marry him because he ' s a good actor / handsome / artist . . she married him because she loves rain . . that ' s all . . ; )\ndon ' t get me wrong when i say this , because i liked rain in this and in full house . but , to be frank , although i think he is basically a good looking guy , i have never thought him especially handsome . and i think that his musical career paved the way for him in dramas . that may also explain how he managed to marry his gorgeous wife . because , without his music celebrity , i could not imagine her being attracted to him if he had been a store clerk . : )\nokay guys first of all , rain didn ' t write the story . and i think this drama is quite funny . everyone played their role perfectly . there ' s a moral in this drama , enjoy your life and try to be a good person . . . and everything else . it wasn ' t a bad drama so i hope people will stop blaming rain . - . - '\nargg rewatching my fav eps . . . can ' t believe that when i first began to watch it i thought it was a bit weird and almost gave up on it . i ' m so glad i didn ' t ! to this day it ' s one of my favorite dramas !\ni ' ve seen 3 episodes of this dramas , and i think it ' s horrible i really didn ' t like it , i expect more from rain b because i ' m one of his biggest fan and he disappointed me actually . . . rain b , i love you so much but it was really bad choice . . tank you\napril 7 , 2017 and still re - watching , this k - drama is so so good . worth it to watch , will make you laugh and cry . i hope people will have a time to watch this it teaches a lot of moral lesson . all i want is season 2 . sbs plsssssssss .\ni always check the comment box if there ' s still commenting i thought i ' m the last one but i saw few , this is my favorite k drama and i ' m so grateful every time i see a positive comment , i was loved by this kdrama . thanks !\none of the best dramas of 2016 ! ! just re - watched it and im loving it even more than the first time . the ratings are low just because it was aired at the same time as descendants of the sun . such a pity because in my opinion this is way better than dots !\nitssss really gooood i bawled my eyes out on the final episode ! ! i love the fake lee hae joon and his\npedo - smile\nhahahaha ! ! i love the fake hong nan who appears pretty outside but gangster inside and the way she walks tho . . . . i really love all the cast and this time i ' m in love with side characters too !
