according to tvsa , hlelo said she was not surprised because of his alias ( naked dj ) . “but they are married . . . isn’t it what married people supposed to do ? ” she asked on the show .
again the fairy lights are fully exposed but with a curtain behind . sometimes you want to hide a certain something that is directly behind the head table . again you will have naked lights experiance with the reflections on the cloth to add to the effect and hide the unwanted .

the night in question , due to take place on october 24th , will be the first leg of a month long european tour that will see the dj bare all in front of crowds as far afield as reykjavik and st . petersburg and will have more dj flesh on display than seth troxler’s birthday party .
his latest film ' naked dj ' follows underground musician / cultural icon x ' ho on a trip to china which x ' ho visits for the first time . throughout his journey , we hear x ' ho ranting about repression in singapore and making comparisons between lee kwan yew and hitler .
the naked backdrop is just that . fairy lights fully exposed to give a glow over the head table and to light up the wall behind . ideal for highlighting features like open brickwork etc . windows and arch ways . sometimes just to have the light to bounce of the wall to give an all over ambient glow . the full fairy light experience .
yoh i couldn’t believe she said that on tv and the twinz were as shocked like “okay bulelwa you’re over sharing” . but hlelo said she was not surprised because his name is the naked dj so it says it all . she even said “but they are married” and asked , “isn’t it what married people supposed to do ? ”
l think there is nothing wrong with the dj , if he doesn ' t get it from the wife where must he get it . . . ? the reason l think why some man cheat its because they are sexually starved , l will do it 3 times a dayif given the opportunity . or l just have to admit that l am a sex addict as the dj .

it’s so sad that relatives and friends of a dj who lives in south africa failed to warn him about ma - 14 from gabs recently when he visited the country .
clearly offended by this , dj warras dragged his beef all the way to his radio slot , undisputed , which airs on yfm every weekdays between 18 - 21hrs pm .
however , the naked dj seems to have made up for his wives joke with a follow - up post dedicated to naledi . he said :
i believe if you ' re going to occupy someone ' s time you need to make it worth it [ email protected ] this was the moment you came to tell me the great news , it ' ll be forever engraved in my heart # love . ( sic ) .

if you ' re hiring professional entertainment for your reception , choosing between a live band or dj is the first big decision , and it mostly comes down to the vibe you ' re looking for and your budget .
naked don ' t need no psychologist he needs bulelwa ' s gauva everyday all day nd she shud shut her mout nd open her ass . . sum of us woudnt mine sex 24 / 7
bulelwa even said she gets tired sometimes because she doesn’t like having sex all the time . she is a woman she gets to be busy with other stuff so she gets tired but naked wants to do it anyway . the twinz were like “he is a sex addict” and laughed .
the housewives go to cannes but , unsurprisingly , drama follows them across the ocean .
last night the subject continued . this time , dj warras told his co - host that the lady in question telephonically confronted him about the matter . i was frustrated by the fact that his co - host , who also happen to be a woman , allowed him to speak about women in such a disrespectful manner . if she had any depth or at least some sense of opinion in her , she would have called warras to order . unless if warras has also seen her naked ( that’s another possibility ) .

in an exclusive interview with wunderground the always idiosyncratic guy , pictured djing without pants , espoused on his naturist tendencies behind the decks . “it’s just so freeing and liberating , ” he enthused . “have you ever danced naked , moonlight shimmering against your bare buttocks as your penis cavorts to its own cosmic cadence ? ”
yeah ! paris hilton , the award - winning dj / musician , is releasing a new song titled “high off my love .
my best guess is that it’s about being high off her love .
uhuru is a newly formed group under kalawa jazmee stable which comprises of maphorisa , dj clap and celimpilo , it ' s with no doubt t . . .
she said it was because the dj wanted sex multiple times a day and one couldn ' t forget such a moment because this was long before south african ' s were comfortable with the idea of openly discussing sex , and on a reality show of all places .
a series of videos from the party , believed to have been held in toronto , ontario , shows a violent fracas in the middle of the venue .
one twitter user said the fracas was sparked by the bride ' s ex - partner littering the tables with lewd photographs of her performing a sex act .
keep in mind that the band or dj is almost always responsible for playing the emcee role as well , making announcements and transitioning between events .
fifty percent of the job is helping to keep things running smoothly ,
dantzer says .
i ' m not the planner , i ' m not in charge , but i have the microphone . you should look for someone who is organized , prompt and responds to you .
while most fans and followers seemed to be in on the joke , the humor was lost on many .
guy claimed that the practice of djing bottomless is a popular one and that “it’s why you never see below a dj’s waist during a set . they’re always hidden behind a bulky desk or , if the desk is smaller , there’ll be a felt covering” and that it’s also “why the crowd during boiler room performances are staring hypnotically ahead , mouths agape , they’re not looking at the camera” .
craft contributions are hip and slick for such a small project . the husband - wife team of lume and wonowidjoyo have organized a staggering amount of visual material into sophisticated montages and image superimpositions of such emotive power and abstract beauty , they sometimes speak more persuasively than ho’s verbal outpourings . in fact , a second viewing with the sound turned off may elicit a different response , and even unearth fresh insight . following its win at the yogja - netpac asian film festival in indonesia , “the naked dj” will have its domestic premiere at the singapore film festival . that it passed censorship with an r21 rating ( suitable for audiences 21 and older ) perhaps proves there’s still breathing room for creative , dissenting voices in the so - called nanny - state .
whether you consider yourselves music people or not , the music at your wedding is super important , and a great band or dj can be the difference between a pretty fun wedding and an unforgettable one . avoid these mistakes and you ' re guaranteed to have truly amazing wedding music .
one of the most innovative and versatile hip - hop acts in the country kwesta dakar is about to start the year with a banger , with his . . .

why are watch hands always at 10 and 2 in advertisements ? have you ever noticed that advertisements for watches always seem to show the hands at 10 : 10 - - that is one hand at the 10 position and the other at the 2 position ? an old myth says that this is in honor of the time of day when president lincoln was assassinated ( but he was actually shot at 10 : 15 pm ) . the real reasons are simpler and readily understandable . consider the following : this is the perfect position to frame a company ' s logo it creates the appearance that the watch smiling ( emotional marketing ) aesthetically it ' s the best place for the hands it keeps the hands clear of signatures , subsidiary dials , and date windows it ' s been the industry marketing standard since watches went mainstream in the 1920s
with a dj , you get access to virtually any music and your guests will hear familiar , popular recordings . that familiarity can be a big plus if you want a lot of guests to dance , as people prefer to dance to music they recognize . a good wedding dj will work with the couple to understand their musical tastes and what they want out of the evening . if an epic dance party is a priority , you may need to lure guests out onto the dance floor with at least a few well - known hits .
nothing sets the tone of your reception quite like music . you may agonize over your wedding colors and centerpieces , but you shouldn ' t overlook entertainment in the process . how do you choose the best option , though ? should you hire a dj or a live band ? is a diy playlist ever a good idea ? it all depends on your priorities and the kind of reception you ' re planning .
in xhosa they say
umfazi akazithethi izinto ezenzeka e embhedeni wakhe i dont understant this bulelwa why he got married to this dj and now she is telling us tht he is a sex addict , ufuna senze ni thina ? bulelwa u married the guy so just do your job as a wife stop your attitude otherwise sizakumthatha thina , we dont mind at all , . . ask bigmama , * asking for dj ' s no . *
whether you choose to go with a dj or a band , it ' s important to be realistic about how much to budget for entertainment . skimping on the entertainment can lead to a lackluster reception .
these days , it ' s very easy and relatively inexpensive to buy some equipment , set up a craigslist ad and say , hey i ' m a dj ,
ryan says .
$ 400 or $ 500 can seem like a good deal , but it ' s wasted . and it can ruin the entire reception .
while many factors affect pricing , you should expect to spend roughly $ 1 , 000 to $ 1 , 500 for an experienced wedding dj .
. maybe quinton is the kind that just rolls over and says
letha
. lol . mara seriously , maybe he just wants to go straight to the cake without preparing bulelwa . kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ! the show is the beeessst shem !
you dear reader just sit tight and wait until the time is right and i will deliver the pictures to you .
guests are seen throwing punches and hurling chairs at one another over the tables as the fight spirals out of control .
that user said in the exchange : ' brides [ sic ] brother thought it was one of the groomsmen . '
which songs are practically guaranteed to get even your most reticent guests out on the dance floor ? the answer ( like it or not ) is line dances .
people have strong opinions about the songs they hear again and again at wedding receptions ,
says matt ryan of mobile dj entertainment .
but when you think about the go - to songs , the reason they have that reputation is that they work !
you may be tired of hearing
cupid shuffle
but according to ryan , see how quickly it fills the dance floor .
according to exhibitionist skream , seen here browsing the classified ads for toilet paper on a quiet tuesday , the dj hospice will provide specially curated gigs for the in - patient djs , thought to include such luminaries as jeremy healy , dr . neil fox and howard from take that , to play sets that which will be exclusively populated by ravers over 35 , former big beat fans and people who still use the phrase “ave it large” .

dj khaled’s “wild thoughts” featuring rihanna and bryson tiller is one of those song that’s so cheesy that it’s hard to believe it exists . guitar sampled from carlos santana’s 1999 schmaltzy smash “maria maria” wails over an itchy destiny’s child - esque rhythm while rihanna , seeming to smack her lips , delivers this bit of crass babytalk : “know you wanna see me nakey , nakey , naked . ” all of which , you may have guessed , produces a near - perfect piece of pop that may well become the cookout jam of this july or of this century .
i must say i loved it , the father should have his own show . i like hlelo ' s narration , she is a natural . i must say that i am addicted . when the brother tried to explain that playboy want them to pose for them and he couldn ' t say it and the dad asked how much they were getting . i can actually imagine my mother saying that if i were to tell her that i was going to pose naked in some magazine .
skream , real name oliver jones , spoke to wunderground about the upcoming tour , “i’m a little bit nervous about the whole thing to be honest with you . i haven’t got my nuts out in public since the time benga dared me to dj at a twenty first birthday party with no keks on but that was years ago and my balls have aged a lot since then , as you can tell from how they dangle and also the wet musky scent . ”
kwaaaaaaaaaaaa carino that father is a comedian lol ! ! he is super cool while mama wabo esitsha . yoh the mother just shouts nje and the father will be busy cracking jokes and laughing on the side . and the way hlelo just laughs out loud .
logistically speaking , bands take up more space than a dj . you ' ll also need to plan around the band taking a few breaks throughout the evening . another deciding factor is cost . a band is often more expensive simply because there are more people and equipment involved . but for couples who want that unique , high - energy atmosphere , many believe it ' s worth the higher price tag .
al , punctual and most of all fun . he felt the crowd out and played all the perfect tunes . i wouldn ' t have changed a thing about our music selection for the wedding .
this mix compilation is a true hidden gem in the om records catalogue . i bought it back in ' 98 and it gathered dust for over 4 years in my collection . so when i gave it a first proper listen in 2002 i was immediately hooked on it . although naked music nyc ' s ' if i fall ' track appears four times in different mixes the whole plot strangely enough gets lifted to a higher level . the terra deva tracks are just top notch and all the other tracks seem to be custom fit for this compilation . dj fluid ' s mixing is just that excellent that one can hardly notice one track flowing into anther . one day i found myself listening to this mix six times in a row . you ' ll never get tired of this one . smoother than silk , deeper than the ocean , pure perfection .

jones has revealed that the entire cost to build the hospice , set to be named progressive house old timers retreat , will be close to one and a half million pounds , although half of that sum has already been donated by an anonymous dj who claims “it’s a small price to pay” if it means paul oakenfold won’t be calling around to his house everyday .
you won ' t be able to please everyone , but ask that your dj or band keep it at least pg - 13 during the reception . when it ' s just you , your college besties and adult cousins at the after - party , feel free to play the songs that weren ' t appropriate while your grandparents and baby nieces and nephews were around earlier in the night . music must : beyond blatant profanity , really consider the song ' s lyrics and meaning . there may be a very innocent inside joke behind your choice of a raunchy song , but most guests will be on the outside—including your cute little flower girl .
your reception isn ' t the place for nightclub - level volume . it ' ll only frustrate your older family members and make it tough for them to talk to one another and enjoy the party . and you don ' t want your guests to wake up with sore throats from having to yell to each other all night . music must : when going over your timeline with your dj , you can make volume requests . ask for low volume during cocktail hour and dinner ( like instrumentals and soft ballads ) and louder for dancing and the final song ( yes , you can go all out for
sweet caroline
) . on the wedding day , ask a bridesmaid or your day - of consultant to keep volume on their radar and alert the band or dj if there are any issues .

appropriately for a country obsessed with rules , systems and figures , the film is punctuated with a stream of national statistics ( singapore ranks rock - bottom in the world happiness index , below iran and afghanistan ) , most of which make one simultaneously crack up and despair . the sheer ability to accumulate such data betrays the mindset of a bred - in - the - bone singaporean .

it was at our first meeting where we discussed the possibility of escaping singapore to make the film . i had already done films in south east asian countries and when i discovered that chris was curious about china , i probably decided there and then it was the right place to go . china became the perfect ironic location for us to walk around and talk about repression . one of my favorite moments in the film happens at the end of “singapore fucker” , after we learn that singapore was ranked most miserable country in the world and seeing images of singaporeans fighting over petty issues . we then cut to chris walking down a sidewalk near tiananmen , lined with beggars with missing limbs . that juxtaposition really places our “misery” into perspective .

malnourished children , particularly those with severe acute malnutrition , have a higher risk of death from common childhood illness such as diarrhoea , pneumonia , and malaria . nutrition - related factors contribute to about 45 % of deaths in children under 5 years of age .
45 years may be annoyingly precise in its execution , but it ' s nuanced enough that it doesn ' t always matter , skillfully evoking literary antecedents like james joyce ' s the dead and virginia woolf ' s mrs . dalloway without being too fussy about it .
45 years ’ fleshed - out plot stays faithful to constantine’s fictional interpretation of these real - life events : painting a similarly haunting portrait of the marriage of the mercers , a comfortably - off childless couple , in the five days leading up to their 45th wedding anniversary celebrations .
but the first day can still be plenty enriching , as evidenced by one of thursday’s biggest draws , 45 years , a favorite in berlin this winter . written and directed by andrew haigh , of weekend and looking fame , 45 years is a quiet , deceptively simple story of an older couple , rendered in finely detailed performances by charlotte rampling and tom courtenay , contemplating their titular anniversary as a ghost from the past comes wafting up through the floorboards . haigh is a delicate filmmaker , averse to chunky scenes of emotional exposition or thematic telegraphing , but 45 years fairly quickly gets into the meat of its story , unsettling the semi - rural serenity enjoyed by kate and jeff , a childless couple in their late 60s and mid - 70s , respectively . a few days before his and kate’s big anniversary party , jeff receives word that the body of an old love of his , who died in a hiking accident in the alps , has , 50 years later , finally been found .
in early old age ( 65 - 75 years ) , there may be a modest increase of physical activity , in an attempt to fill free time resulting from retirement ( 8 ) . by middle old age ( 75 - 85 years ) , many people have developed some physical disability , and in the final stage ( very old age , over 85 years ) they become totally dependent . a typical expectation is of 8 - 10 years of partial disability , and a year of total dependency ( 5 ) .
leading causes of death in children under - 5 years are preterm birth complications , pneumonia , birth asphyxia , diarrhoea and malaria .
45 years also picked up a further award for best performance in a british feature film for rampling , which she shared with veteran scottish actor james cosmo . cosmo won for playing a retired boxer in the pyramid texts , directed by ludwig and paul shammasian , in which he acted virtually singlehandedly .
the organization also listed its top ten films of the year in alphabetical order : “45 years , ” “the big short , ” “bridge of spies , ” “brooklyn , ” “carol , ” “max max : fury road , ” “sicario , ” “ spotlight , ” “steve jobs” and “trumbo . ”
the most talked about film of the week sounds an unsettling choice for bank holiday viewing : focusing , as 45 years does , on the silently crumbling relationship between a supposedly happily - married couple , after the body of his first love is found , preserved in ice for half a century .
every once in a while a film comes along that is so natural , so real , that you forget that you’re watching a film , but rather become the proverbial fly - on - the - wall . heneke’s heartbreaking amour is a recent example . 45 years is just such a film .
in a way , the filmmakers of 45 years used this dynamic of the holistic thinker in a timelock to act as a sort of meta - analysis of her life . so unprepared for this moment was she , that kate had no other alternative than to play into her own personal tragedy .
but above all he has taken the woman’s part . in the story mrs mercer is mean - minded and unimaginative and all our sympathies are invited for mr mercer’s anguish . contrariwise , 45 years is kate’s story . it is in the best sense a woman’s film , albeit made by a man .
in citing it as its unanimous choice for the award , the jury ( which was chaired by la times critic kenneth turan ) said 45 years was “a quietly explosive film which represents classic film - making at its best . . . a measured yet provocative film , a masterclass in understated acting . ”
years since i read a word of german , he said . funny how it starts coming back to you when you see it again .
brie larson was voted best actress for room . next in the voting were cate blanchett for carol ( 2 ) , saoirse ronan for brooklyn ( 3 ) , charlotte rampling for 45 years ( 4 ) and a tie between charlie theron for mad max : fury road and carey mulligan for suffragette ( 5 ) .
other films heading to the awards with multiple nods include justin kurzel’s adaptation of macbeth ( six nominations , including best actor for michael fassbender ) , andrew haigh’s drama 45 years ( six , with one for charlotte rampling in the best actress category ) and alex garland’s sci - fi thriller ex machina ( five ) .
young adulthood typically covers the period from 20 - 35 years of age , when both biological function and physical performance reach their peak . during young middle - age ( 35 - 45 years ) , physical activity usually wanes , with a 5 - 10 kg accumulation of body fat . active pursuits may be shared with a growing family , but it becomes less important to impress either an employer or persons of the opposite sex with physical appearance and performance . during later middle - age ( 45 - 65 years ) , women reach the menopause , and men also substantially reduce their output of sex hormones . career opportunities have commonly peaked , and a larger disposable income often allows energy demanding domestic tasks to be deputed to service contractors . the decline in physical condition thus continues and may accelerate .
roger ebert was born on this day in 1942 , and died a little over five years ago . i owe a good part of my success…
5 . 6 million children under the age of 5 years died in 2016 . this translates into 15 000 under - five deaths per day .
throughout 45 years , pop songs , heard on muted radios , provide bitterly ironic commentary — i only want to be with you by dusty springfield , for example , while kate snappishly turns off young girl by the union gap . the film plays out , almost unbearably , to the full extent of the moody blues’ go now , though .
45 years
speaks of the hazards of coming to terms with aging , but also of the hazards of the ghosts of a partner ' s unfinished emotional business . the film features a week in the lives of kate ( charlotte rampling ) , a retired teacher , and goeff ( tom courtenay ) , a retired manager of an engineering company , as the couple prepares for their 45th anniversary celebration . ( their celebration of 40 years of marriage had been abruptly cancelled because geoff required coronary bypass surgery . )
the director of 45 years is andrew haigh , only 42 himself , whose first feature , greek pete ( 2009 ) was about a year in the life of a london rent boy , debuting at the london lesbian and gay film festival . his second , the much admired weekend ( 2011 ) , was about two men in their twenties meeting in a gay bar in brighton and spending the weekend together , becoming tentative lovers despite one of them being about to head off to the states for a couple of years .
there are shades of mike leigh here , that great chronicler of quotidian british life , but haigh , who is only in his early 40s , lacks some crucial bit of leigh’s maturity and wisdom . 45 years gets many things right , in all its sharply calibrated intimacy , but by the shivery final scene , some of the alluring mystery of the film is lost . the film is best when it’s trading in ambiguity , but haigh chooses to end the film with something approaching definitive . ( as definitive as this murky , withholding film gets , anyway . ) haigh is ultimately too eager to answer his many provocative questions , which , as 45 years shows us in its strongest moments , is not always how life works .
this last one is particularly interesting as it represents the dynamics of narrative at work in 45 years . kate is a married woman who continues to maintain the balance in her marriage even as she becomes more and more aware of her husband’s hidden past . in addition , she faces the deadline of their 45th wedding anniversary set to take place at the end of the week .
strength peaks around 25 years of age , plateaus through 35 or 40 years of age , and then shows an accelerating decline , with 25 % loss of peak force by the age of 65 years . muscle mass decreases , apparently with a selective loss in the cross - section if not the numbers of type ii fibers . it is unclear whether there is a general hypotrophy of skeletal muscle , or a selective hypoplasia and degeneration of type ii fibers , associated with a loss of nerve terminal sprouting .
holidaying in france some 15 years ago , constantine heard of the discovery of a twenty - something mountaineer who had fallen down a glacial crevasse in chamonix in the 1930s .
written by haigh and david constantine , 45 years stars charlotte rampling and tom courtenay as a married couple whose relationship is thrown into turmoil on the eve of their 45th wedding anniversary . described by guardian critic peter bradshaw as “a wonderfully acted minor - key study in anxiety and regret” , it is haigh’s third feature . previous winners include penny woolcock’s one mile away , duncan jones’ moon and anton corbijn’s control .
but that was in another country , / and besides , the wench is dead . ” after a silent start , 45 years , the most devastating portrait of a long marriage hollow at its heart , accompanies its sober opening credits with an instantly recognisable sound , the whirring and clicking through of photographic slides in a projector : a sound that only later will we know as the herald of terminal revelation .
as the film begins , geoff and kate are planning a big party for their wedding anniversary . from a distance , and perhaps to their friends , they seem to fit the profile of the archetypal old married couple , comfortable with each other’s flaws and tangled in each other’s habits . 45 years immediately and skillfully establishes the pair’s peaceful , august - years lifestyle—walks to town and through nature , doting on the dog—while also immediately destroying that illusion of total contentment with the arrival of the letter . building to the impending celebration , 45 years counts off days of the week , not unlike a more literal ghost story , the shinin g . over this brief time frame , geoff will become more and more withdrawn , disappearing into his memories . kate , meanwhile , does what the heroine of any actual spectral mystery does : she begins poking around in the past , discovering not just the traits she shares with the woman she effectively “replaced , ” but also the numerous hints of said woman’s presence throughout their home .
but
45 years
is also a story of how couples can be blind to each other ' s truths , once finally recognized . when geoff toasts his wife and weeps , kate is sure he is weeping for his lost love and that she remains but a convenient replacement . sadly , this couple ' s inability to confront truths earlier has make it impossible for kate to see that the tears are really because geoff sees his unfairness to her and the pain he has inflicted through the years . he sees finally that kate has always been his deepest love . his regrets are authentic and profound .
make no mistake . “45 years” is no polite tea - and - toast domestic drama , even if the central ( and virtually only ) characters onscreen are a childless retired couple , kate and geoff ( played by the beyond - superb charlotte rampling and tom courtenay ) . their marital contentment among the green pastures of the english countryside will soon be disrupted when an unexpected letter arrives a week before their wedding anniversary party .
following his youthful gay - themed films “greek pete” and “weekend , ” and hbo’s “looking , ” british writer - director andrew haigh ventures onto fresh ground with his maturely assured third feature , “45 years . ” depicting a retired rural norfolk couple questioning their relationship in the run - up to their titular wedding anniversary , this admirable berlin competition entry will inevitably draw comparisons , at least for its somewhat privileged milieu , with [ … ]
in his previous feature , the wondrous “weekend , ” mr . haigh showed how a brief sexual encounter between two young men could contain a lifetime’s worth of feeling . after 48 hours together , the lovers had somehow arrived at a complete and perfect knowledge of one another . “45 years” points its inquiry into the ways of love in the opposite direction , and suggests that even after decades together , two people can remain perfect strangers .
the movie just made me feel lost and bored . like i get they ' ve been together forever ( 45 years ) and we ' re supposed to be sad that his past is ruining their present but i just didn ' t care . the movie to me was geoff ( the husband ) still obsesses over his young love ( katya ) who died tragically 50 years ago and his wife ( kate ) gets upset . she snoops around and finds out katya was pregnant during the incident . . . . . . . then they dont solve anything , they reinforce that their marriage was a facade , and the movie ends .
missing out in the best film and director races , but scoring writing and acting nods , are a pair of british entries that performed well with bifa earlier this week : andrew haigh’s “45 years” and alex garland’s “ex machina , ” for which swedish star alicia vikander received a best actress nod . bifa preferred her in the efa - ineligible “the danish girl” ; between the two films , vikander looks set for a busy red - carpet season .
the british writer - director andrew haigh came to wide attention with his 2011 film weekend , about a one - night stand between two men that potentially marks the start of a more serious relationship . based on a short story by david constantine , haigh ' s follow - up , 45 years , is almost a mirror reflection of its predecessor : the main characters have spent most of their lives together , yet remain further from true intimacy than either might think .
and as for the notion of becoming famous in his 71st year for something he wrote nearly 15 years ago , well , he accepts with a shrug , the past will always hold the capacity to surprise .
in 45 years it is the letter received from switzerland and the conflict involved in figuring out what to do about katya ( story driver : action , story goal : conceptualizing , overall story problem : inequity ) . subtle manipulations , dysfunctional interactions with friends and co - workers , and the tender balance employed as kate plans out their 45th wedding anniversary with event planners assume the brunt of conflict within this throughline ( overall story throughline : psychology , overall story concern : conceptualizing ) .
45 years has the clarity of outline you might find in a film from germany or scandinavia : the action unfolds over a week , with intertitles marking each new day . through the repetition of mundane events – strolls , cigarette breaks , shopping trips – haigh builds up a picture of the couple ' s life and of how things stand between them . for instance , we see that kate handles most of the practical tasks of the household , including preparing for the anniversary party planned for the weekend .
the terrifying persistence of the past is the theme , and the tendency of the past to seem so much more real and more vivid than anything in the present . the repressed returns – and makes the repressor look weak . this is the second time i have seen 45 years since it made its bow at the berlin film festival earlier this year , and it has grown in my mind , a commanding , contemplative movie from director andrew haigh , adapted by him from a short story by david constantine .
the calcium loss can begin as early as 30 years , and in women the process accelerates for some 5 years around the menopause . in later old age , the bones become so weak that a mild fall , a bout of coughing , or even a vigorous muscle contraction can cause a
pathological
fracture . a fracture of the hip quite commonly initiates irreversible bed rest and death . a deterioration of the vertebrae also contributes to senile kyphosis .
modestly paced , carefully composed and emotionally curbed though it may be , “45 years” is permitted a major element of dramatic underpinning . genial geoff mercer ( tom courtenay ) receives a letter that sets his mind racing : the body of his ex - fiancee , katya , who disappeared into a crevasse while the pair were on a swiss walking holiday in 1962 , has been revealed inside a melting glacier . since geoff had been marked as next of kin on her death certificate , will he come to switzerland to identify the corpse ?
while british stories featuring characters of retirement age , such as “the best exotic marigold hotel” and “quartet , ” are resonating with large audiences at home and abroad , “45 years” shirks many of the pandering pleasures that have helped define the genre . and lacking any of the cast members that have proved consistent winners with this market — rich assets maggie smith , judi dench and helen mirren — haigh’s compassionate but hardly sentimental film is more likely to reside within an arthouse niche . strong critical approbation will be needed to break it out very far .
the last shot of “45 years , ” andrew haigh’s sensitive and devastating portrait of a long , happy marriage in sudden crisis , is one such frozen moment . everything is paused , suspended in curious limbo . a wife — i’m treading cautiously to avoid revealing too much — looks at her husband as if seeing him for the first time , as if seized by a sudden and unwelcome new understanding . what will she do with her knowledge ? we may think we’ve reached the end of the story , but maybe this is just the beginning .
inside out was already on the best animated feature , so why then you guys had to put it in the best picture too ? you could have nominated another movie – steve jobs ( c’mon , the box office means nothing ! ) or 45 years . also the performances from both rooney mara and alicia vikander are clearly not supporting , you all missed a opportunit to nominate others two actresses today . except for these two things , i loved the list . mad max , the martian , carol , brooklyn , ex machina… hope to see the others soon 🙂
this is not the average domestic drama . movies about marriage can be bitter and / or perceptive , but it’s rare to stumble upon one that presents a situation as complicated as geoff and kate’s , where what appears to have been a long , fulfilling relationship is reframed by uncomfortable new information . a small film of big insights , heavy on dialogue but light on speeches , 45 years often seems closer in spirit to a ghost story : nothing goes “boo” or rearranges the furniture , but there’s a unmissable sense that we’re watching two people haunted by a specter from another lifetime .
first established in 1973 , the london evening standard film awards are the only ones that celebrate british and irish talent in cinema which are judged by a panel of top uk critics . their record over the years of spotting rising stars has been pretty remarkable .
as the drama begins , kate and geoff are organising a huge party to celebrate their 45th wedding anniversary . earlier preparations for a 40th anniversary bash were cancelled because of a medical crisis that may or may not have had a psychosomatic element , and from the first there seems something ominously contingent and wrong about the number 45 .
where 45 years is staid , victoria , another standout from berlin , is sleek and showy . the film , from director sebastian schipper , has an insane hook : it’s a two - hour - and - 20 - minute film , about a bank heist gone wrong , all shot in one take . which is technically dazzling , a mind - boggling feat of planning and ingenuity . schipper , and cinematographer sturla brandth grøvlen , have pulled off something marvelous , it’s just a shame that their prodigious technical work is muddied by plot contrivances and a lopsided , at times nonsensical emotional arc .
“45 years” is far from a supernatural melodrama , but mr . haigh allows the spookier implications of the story to hover around the edges . geoff and kate are rational , practical - minded people . the news about katya comes into their house like a visitation from another dimension of experience , a reminder of the uncanny , irrational power of memory and desire . mr . courtenay , a naturally demonstrative actor , registers a convincing blend of longing , confusion and shame . ms . rampling , a stiller , deeper - running pool , conveys emotions so strange and intense that they don’t quite have names .
this topic is still of great interest to behavioral and nonbehavioral readers . this interest can be inferred from the number of references and articles devoted to this subject . a search in psycinfo , with the terms “chomsky” and “skinner , ” identified 340 results for the years 1996 to 2005 and 72 for the years 1966 to 1995 . these findings suggest the unresolved nature of this polemic and the merit of further elaboration on this topic . this interview clearly portrays chomsky ' s current views on behaviorism when confronted with recent developments in behavior analysis . it highlights and provides significant detail of chomsky ' s account of the circumstances surrounding the publication of his revision . this interview is the result of 2 years of contact with chomsky , and it is the first in its subject area conducted by a behavioral interviewer .
first published in 2001 in literary magazine , the reader , and later in a collection of short stories , in another country first came to the attention of cult director andrew haigh a few years ago , who sent word he wanted to turn it into a film .
an appropriately graded aerobic training program can augment the aerobic power of 65 year old subjects by as much as 10 ml . kg - 1 . min - 1 over a 3 month period , effectively reducing the biological age of the oxygen transporting system by 20 years . a lack of aerobic power thus should not limit the independence of a well - trained , active individual unless she or he survives to the unlikely age of 100 years . aerobic training eliminates premature disability , but has little influence on survival beyond the age of 80 years . rather , it induces a
squaring
of morbidity and mortality curves , so that good health is preserved until shortly before death ( 4 ) . activity patterns in late middle age are quite strong predictors of the likelihood of dependency as a senior ( 11 ) .
in terms of filmmaking skill , 45 years is a decided advance on weekend , yet it feels less original , and not only because the subject is a heterosexual couple instead of a gay one . indeed , it ' s hard to say how much difference this really makes : while we ' re asked to ponder how far the gap between geoff and kate reflects broader differences between men and women , haigh arrives at no firm conclusion . more significant is the way that both hide their emotions beneath a facade of stoic respectability , as many heroes and heroines of british cinema have done since the days of brief encounter .
above all , “45 years” is a drama of quiet restraint . the camera observes while kate takes her dog max for walks in the misty autumnal countryside , goes for excursions “into town” ( norwich ) , or joins friends on a riverboat trip in the norfolk broads — the scars left after the occupying romans dug for peat are a neat echo of both the deadly swiss crevasse and the fissure opening in the mercers’ marriage . at home , the couple enjoy an intimate moment as they dance to an old favorite ( “stagger lee” by lloyd price ) and then attempt to rekindle their sex life . it’s a touching and very believable depiction .
45 years is based on a 12 - page short story by david constantine called in another country and to read it is to realise how radically , how thoughtfully , haigh has revised the drama . he has moved it from wales to norfolk ( perhaps influenced by norfolk - favouring producer tristan goligher ) and moved the couple up the social scale a little . he has added the anniversary party subplot ( a complete inversion of all those romcoms that climax in all - singing and dancing joyousness , mamma mia ! upwards ) . he has lowered the characters’ ages from their eighties to their late sixties to make it more contemporary and change more possible .
seventy years on , the retreating ice released its hold on the guide’s body , which the son he had fathered before his death was taken to identify . the shocking sight of his father - perfectly preserved in his prime , while he himself approached his eighties - tipped the son towards insanity .
the london critics’ circle today announced the nominations for their 36th annual film awards — and while there’s a certain british accent to the roster , their choices largely confirm the critical favorites anointed by their u . s . counterparts . todd haynes’ “ carol ” leads the field with seven nominations , including film and director of the year , plus a pair of leading actress bids for cate blanchett and rooney mara . close behind , with six nods , is another intimate two - hander : in addition to citations for veteran stars charlotte rampling and tom courtenay , andrew haigh’s homegrown “ 45 years ” is mentioned for film , british / irish film and director of the year .
kate’s inability to see the deadline of her own life ties into her most personal of issues . she was so busy balancing out the most important relationship in her life throughout all these years that she failed to take time to do those things that truly make her happy . like playing the piano .
like the final shot of the long good friday , which lingers upon bob hoskins’s face as he revisits the events that brought him to this sorry pass , 45 years shows us the past materialising in the expressions of those trapped in the present , staring into an uncertain future . as geoff and kate dance to the platters’ plaintive smoke gets in your eyes , we see their history laid bare , well - rehearsed moves made unfamiliar , embraces separated by distance – physical and temporal . viewers will decide for themselves what the film’s parting shot means ( another hanekean trope ) , but i suspect most will agree about the haunting quality of this deceptively simple and richly disorienting glance into the abyss .
following his youthful gay - themed films “greek pete” and “weekend , ” and hbo’s “looking , ” british writer - director andrew haigh ventures onto fresh ground with his maturely assured third feature , “45 years . ” depicting a retired rural norfolk couple questioning their relationship in the run - up to their titular wedding anniversary , this admirable berlin competition entry will inevitably draw comparisons , at least for its somewhat privileged milieu , with the english middle - class dramas of joanna hogg ( “archipelago” ) . and by arriving so soon after guy myhill’s venice entry “the goob” and martin radich’s rotterdam premiere “norfolk , ” it also completes a surely coincidental trilogy of current british indie features set in england’s flattest county .
from the kaleidoscopic shards of this slender story , haigh , who describes 45 years as a “companion piece” to 2011’s affectionate weekend , wrings a tale of remarkable complexity , depth and darkness . while accepting that she can hardly resent a relationship that happened before they met , rampling’s watchful kate struggles to make sense of her childless marriage in the new knowledge of this perfectly preserved interloper . as for courtenay’s bamboozled geoff , the discovery of katya’s body turns him into a man out of time ( “she looks like she did in 1962 and i look like this ” ) , his spirit spiralling back toward distant youth , his memories clearer and more vivid than his foggy - eyed vision of the present .
i first saw 45 years at the berlin film festival , where rampling deservedly won the silver bear for best actress , and praised it highly , rating it at four stars . on seeing it again , i realise i undervalued it nonetheless , finding it , perhaps because of that context , just all a bit too english in comparison to michael haneke’s masterpiece about late marriage , amour ( it’s true , there are a few overwritten alan bennetty moments , such as geoff boring on about fixing a broken ballcock ) . moreover , i thought rampling simply outshone courtenay , whereas his mutedness and churlishness is actually necessary to his part , a great performance of vulnerability too , equally deserving of his silver bear .
additionally , three identical strangers , the incredible true story of three triplets separated at birth and reunited years later , received the audience award for documentary , while two short films tied for audience award honors : runner , written and directed by chicago - based filmmaker clare cooney , and we forgot to break up .
this is the scene i recalled at the opening moments of
45 years ,
the intense film directed by andrew haigh about a couple and their lives in a village in the english countryside . it is not to be missed , except by those faint of heart or those who have no patience with slow , but brilliant character development . here one finds the same foreboding sense of grey found in bergman ' s marital examination . yes , the grey is a matter of age , but far more , a matter of a malignant secret and its marital impact . ( spoiler alert : to develop this perspective , i will discuss plot development . what i see , however , as the pivotal turning point of the film is omitted . )
the source material is david constantine’s enigmatic short story in another country , in which an ageing married man receives a letter telling him that the body of his previous girlfriend has been found , perfectly preserved in the ice of the alps where she fell 50 years ago . this news gets a chilly reception from his wife , who is alarmed by the frozen spectre of a former love . “into the little room came a rush of ghosts , ” writes constantine , the vision of “my katya” , who has aged not a day since her death , creating an icy fracture as tangible as that into which the poor soul tripped and fell all those years ago .
maximal heart rate decreases mainly because of a decreased responsiveness to circulating catecholamines . the classical equation [ peak rate = ( 220 - age in years ) ] implies a maximum of about 155 beats . min - 1 at age 65 years ( 1 ) . more recent research suggests that a well - motivated 65 - year - old can attain a rate of 170 beats . min - 1 or more during uphill treadmill running , although muscle weakness may lead to somewhat lower maxima during cycle ergometry ( 10 ) . peak values are further reduced if the subject experiences breathlessness ( in chronic pulmonary disease ) or develops myocardial ischemia ( in the sick sinus syndrome ) .
it seems very odd to say that i would prefer to watch a conventional love story after viewing this film , but i whole - heartedly believe that . this is a very frustrating picture .
45 years
follows an elderly couple about to celebrate their forty - fifth wedding anniversary , and while they are deeply in love , what comes into their lives is devastating for one of them . as a story is uncovered about a past lover , geoff begins to recall everything they did together before he married his current wife . explaining his past to her , emotions being to fly and the performances are what drive the rest of the film . aside from great direction , a brilliant cast in charlotte rampling and tom courtenay , and dialogue that will have you believing what is being presented , this film feels a little unfinished . i do understand the praise around this film , but by the end , i felt myself wanting so much more , and most reviews do not touch on that . this couple is about to reach the peak of the their marriage and everything in the last frame was off for me . it was trying to give a huge emotionally payoff , but i was left empty and wanting to understand their feelings . that is the main plot of the story , and i do not feel it was explored enough . in he end ,
45 years
flows at a good pace and it ' s 97 minutes running time is the perfect length for this story . it is a nice watch , but nothing more .
the defining decision of the mercers’ relationship — the fact that they opted not to have children , and thus now have no family at all in their lives — is barely alluded to by the couple , as is reasonable in a weeklong snapshot of a 45 - year marriage . this childless state serves the drama , raising the stakes of the couple’s interdependence and mutual absorption , while offering no natural outlet for kate’s pressure - cooker feelings .
kate and geoff mercer are planning to celebrate their 45th wedding anniversary with dozens of friends . the event is to take place soon in the community hall of norwich , the town near which they live . a week before the party , geoff receives a letter which , although he tries to hide it , obviously troubles him . when his wife asks him what is going on , geoff tells her that the body of katya , his first great love who disappeared fifty years before in the alps , has just been found in a melting glacier . from then on , geoff starts behaving more and more strangely and for the first time after so many years kate asks herself who the man she married so long ago really is .
it is hard to empathize with someone faced with a problem they don’t see . holistic thinkers don’t see time the same way linear thinkers do . time is fluid to them ; seven days came seem like seven seconds , or seven years . so how then can one justify the overwhelmingly positive critical response to the film and a 97 % rating on rotten tomatoes ?
preterm birth , intrapartum - related complications ( birth asphyxia or lack of breathing at birth ) , and infections cause most neonatal deaths . from the end of the neonatal period and through the first 5 years of life , the main causes of death are pneumonia , diarrhoea and malaria . malnutrition is the underlying contributing factor , making children more vulnerable to severe diseases .
kate ( charlotte rampling ) and geoff ( tom courtenay ) are norfolk retirees awaiting their 45th wedding anniversary . their lives are cosy and seemingly content – until the past rises to the surface , in a strangely literal sense . years before the two met , we ' re told , geoff was involved with a german woman , katia , who died in a hiking accident .

the film is exceptionally beautifully and tactfully photographed , serving this wrenching story calmly and even peacefully . and the casting is tremendous . we all know that rampling is great , so formidable and stern , yet implying such depth of feeling and eroticism , hardly any the less now that she is 69 . but what makes this film work so specially is our constant awareness of both her and tom courtenay , now 78 , as having been such icons of youth in their day , a bit more than 45 years ago , as it happens . rampling was 20 when she burst into film in georgy girl in 1966 , while courtenay was still in his twenties too in the loneliness of the long distance runner ( 1962 ) and billy liar ( 1963 ) . we’re always aware of what they were as we look at what they are , handsome as they may be in old age . these are brave acknowledgements .
looked at one way , the most significant character in 45 years hasn’t a single line of dialogue , appears only in still photographs , and died a half - century before the events of the film . her name is katya , and she was young and beautiful when she plummeted to her demise in the swiss alps . geoff ( tom courtenay ) , the man she was with when she fell , hasn’t mentioned her since he married kate ( charlotte rampling ) , his wife of four - and - a - half decades , not long after the tragedy . but mere minutes into the film , a letter arrives , like an intruder from the past : a body has been discovered , perfectly preserved in the ice . and for the 90 minutes that follow , geoff and kate will do little else but talk about or around katya . she is the elephant in every room of their cozy norfolk home .
injuries ( including road traffic injuries , drowning , burns , and falls ) rank among the top causes of death and lifelong disability among children aged 5 - 14 years . the patterns of death in older children and adolescents reflect the underlying risk profiles of the age groups , with a shift away from infectious diseases of childhood and towards accidents and injuries , notably drowning and road traffic injuries for older children and adolescents .
it’s the start of the week in which the couple are preparing for their 45th wedding anniversary party , their 40th having been put off when geoff needed a heart bypass . the film takes us through that week , day by day , each starting with an expansive view of the misty east anglian landscape , while at the same time reaching right back over the years — this being a study in time , how it makes us what we are and how it ruins us .
exercise training cannot restore tissue that has already been destroyed , but it can protect the individual against a number of the chronic diseases of old age . more importantly , it maximizes residual function . in some instances , biological age is reduced by as much as 20 years . life expectancy is increased , partial and total disability are delayed , and there are major gains in quality - adjusted life expectancy . exercise is thus a very important component of healthy living for the senior citizen .
considering what is contained in that missive , the situation that rocks their world is akin to when glenn close ’s stalker in “ fatal attraction ” shockingly bursts out of the water with knife at the ready after presumably drowning in a bathtub . initially , the news that the ice - encased body of geoff’s german first love , katya , who died more than 50 years ago after falling through a crack in a glacier as they hiked in the swiss alps , feels oddly random yet innocuous .
film is an art that plays tricks with time . a movie is a fixed , finite , relatively short experience — a hundred minutes or so in a given viewer’s life — that can span years , even centuries . the phrase “real time , ” sometimes applied to movies that match their internal and external chronologies , expresses a wish and a delusion . in reality , as on screen , time compresses , expands , doubles back on itself and even , now and then , appears to stop .
a child ' s risk of dying is highest in the first 28 days of life ( the neonatal period ) . improving the quality of antenatal care , care at the time of childbirth , and postnatal care for mothers and their newborns are all essential to prevent these deaths . globally 2 . 6 million children died in the first month of life in 2016 . there are approximately 7 000 newborn deaths every day , amounting to 46 % of all child deaths under the age of 5 - years .
