this is one of 20 zane grey stories , filmed by paramount in the 1930s , which they sold to favorite films for re - release , circa 1950 - 1952 . the failure of paramount , the original copyright holder , to renew the film ' s copyright resulted in it falling into public domain , meaning that virtually anyone could duplicate and sell a vhs / dvd copy of the film . therefore , many of the versions of this film available on the market are either severely ( and usually badly ) edited and / or of extremely poor quality , having been duped from second - or third - generation ( or more ) copies of the film .
you can savor the performances of james stewart and john wayne , co - starring alongside each other in a western for the first time , or lee marvin , a man seemingly born to play ruthless and brutal heavy types ; you can relish the supporting efforts by the film’s excellent secondary cast , which includes the likes of woody strode , john carradine , lee van cleef and edmond o’brien . but the names , big and small alike , all fall under the umbrella of ford , who asserts himself as the film’s true principal with the authority of his peerless craft . —a . c .
rudolph maté’s the violent men breezes by , but it isn’t exactly a breeze . the film falls under the same umbrella as movies like forty guns and johnny guitar , where the cattle baron is replaced with a cattle queen . those comparisons are intrinsically unfair , though , as maté is neither samuel fuller nor nicholas ray ; the violent men suffers in the shadow of its relatives in this particular genre niche . the good news is that the film is over the top enough to be worth checking out , particularly as it concerns barbara stanwyck , who plays the ruthless and calculating martha wilkinson with just the right amount of percolating menace , as well as glenn ford , playing a fairly prototypical western hero type with burly brio . ( if you get flashes of double indemnity at the presence of edward g . robinson , well , that’s just to be expected . ) maybe this film is done better elsewhere in the western canon , but the violent men is certainly done well enough . —a . c .
“looks can be deceiving , ” says michael madsen to kurt russell upon first introduction in the hateful eight . no four words could be more appropriate to the moment , or to the movie , a sprawling film with an intimate core . more so than most marquee movies and tent poles claiming to be “epic , ” it actually lives up to the word . there’s a pomp and grandiosity to the weight of the film—the cast is stupendous , the dialogue dazzles , disgusts and delights in equal measure , and the craftsmanship is peerless . quentin tarantino is chiefly interested in the exchanging of barbs and threats more than he is in action . make no mistake , the hateful eight is insanely violent , but it’s fixated around violent talk and violent reverie before physical violence . frontier justice does quench our thirst , but the themes of social justice that drive the film are more satiating by far . it all adds up to a towering work , as profound as it is profane . —andy crump
there are bleak westerns , and then there’s the culpepper cattle co . , a movie so goddamn bleak it makes mccabe and mrs . miller look like it’s a wonderful life . where to start with this film ? at the beginning , where gary grimes’ wide - eyed fanboy ben seeks out his start in the profession by joining up with a cattle drive ? the film’s quick progression into the decline of ben’s romanticized notions of what “cowboyin‘” actually means ? or the climax , which leaves everyone but grimes and anthony james on the proverbial slab ? the culpepper cattle co . is about as grim and unsparing as they come , and it makes no apologies for either . —a . c .
just a couple years after working with his buddy dennis hopper on the landmark indie film easy rider , peter fonda decided to take a spin in the ol’ director’s chair himself with the hired hand . unlike hopper , though , fonda didn’t meet with immediate runaway success ; critics pooh - poohed its hippie - dippiness and its religious symbolism , and audiences didn’t care enough to go see it . for a time , the hired hand remained filed under “failure . ” but time heals all wounds , and around the early 2000s , the hired hand enjoyed a new restoration and , upon reexamination , heaps of critical praise . so it goes . for what it’s worth , the hired hand is absolutely a better movie than its initial response allowed , a laid - back and poetic bit of existential musing about the unglamorous side of the cowboy way , brutal when it needs to be but mostly defined by its overarching sense of pining . —a . c .
during the first scene between randolph scott and buster crabbe , the shadow of the boom mike is clearly visible on both actors .
douglas dumbrille played a lot of villains and pompous targets for comics , but in one or two westerns , he got to play a good guy . in the mysterious rider , from a zane grey story , he ' s pecos bill , who ' s heading back to his old stomping grounds . he ' s working under a fake name , because he ' s wanted for murder . it takes half an hour for the details of this story to come out , and another half hour to settle matters , but he ' s surprisingly warm and straightforward and competent here . there are also a few people playing roles that will surprise you . sidney toler shows up as dumbrille ' s amiable and nasty sidekick who turns out to be a cook , and russel hayden takes a break from the hopalong cassidy franchise . some good location shooting in the arizona dessert caps off this harry sherman production for paramount . doubtless he got to spend more money than a poverty row b producer , but it shows on the screen .

with true grit , joel and ethan coen remake one of the better cowboy films of the 1960s , a film that influenced countless other films , including clint eastwood ’s unforgiven . they also take on the genre’s biggest star—john wayne , who played the irascible marshal rooster cogburn in the original ’69 adaptation of charles portis’ straightforward and engaging novel . casting , however , has never been a coen weakness , and jeff bridges wholly reinvents the role for which wayne received an oscar . there is a simplicity about the performances here that jives well with the rich landscapes and the authentically recreated , urban settings of 19th - century arkansas and indian territory . that , and the genuine attire of the times , allows the coens to create a world where the actors can play real characters , not caricatures of reality . it’s a talent that keeps begging the question , “what’s next ? ” —tim basham

unlike monte hellman’s previous western , ride in the whirlwind , the influence of myth and surrealism carefully encroaches upon these proceedings . the shooting is much more enigmatic affair , although period detail and an unromantic streak pervade this one as well . a bounty hunter ( warren oates ) agrees to lead a mysterious woman ( millie perkins ) through a hellish desert to a desolate town . but following them is a dandyish gunslinger ( jack nicholson ) who’s fast on the trigger and seems to have a strange bond with perkins . what perkins’ and nicholson’s real motives are is confounding to oates , until the bizarre truth of their quest is fully revealed . the shooting is a hypnotic affair , fatalistically leading to one of the great head - trip finales of all time . —d . h .
leave it to kelly reichardt to reclaim the western for women . western movies tend to be seen as “guy” affairs , less so now in 2016 than in years past ; they are manly products about manly men doing manly things and pondering manly ideas , though that’s an oversimplified critique that erases the impact women have had on westerns in front of and behind the camera . what reichardt does in meek’s cutoff is shunt the men to the side and confront the bullshit macho posturing that is such an integral component of the western’s grammar ; the only man here worth his salt is stephen meek ( bruce greenwood ) , and even he is kind of an incompetent , entitled scumbag . so it’s up to emily tetherow , played by the great and luminous michelle williams , to challenge his self - appointed authority and take responsibility for the people in the caravan he has led so far astray from their path . meek’s cutoff is a stark , minimalist film , which is to say it’s a kelly reichardt film . the stripped - down , simmering austerity of her aesthetic pairs perfectly with the sensibilities of western cinema . —a . c .
there’s a pervasive melancholy to this fulci spaghetti western that most may not anticipate from either its creator or its genre . fulci is , after all , the guy who brought us such gory gems as the beyond , city of the living dead , the black cat and zombie flesh eaters , and the western and all its subgenres tends to be a place of high values , higher gestures and little room for ennui . but four of the apocalypse is , in a word , sad , a real downer of a film about a card shark , a pregnant prostitute , a drunkard , and a disturbed man who claims to see dead people , each on the run from a pack of murderers . maybe that sadness is just a reflection of the era : the 1970s saw the inevitable heat death of the spaghetti western realized , and four of the apocalypse ’s mournful tone feels like a concession of sorts to the demise of its category . —a . c .

to describe the film as a journey of obsession would be putting it mildly . john wayne’s ethan edwards is popularly described as an ahab type , but the truth is that ethan is his own character . here is a man whose need to rescue his nieces from a band of comanche indians does not drive him so much as it consumes him ; his compulsions blend with his rage and justify casual moral atrocities . such is the power of racism and prejudice as ford depicts them . both qualities invite us to act against our better natures , though it is not clear until the end whether ethan has one—and even then , just as in the beginning , he remains an outsider , the kind of guy you just do not ask into your home . ethan is as quintessential a wayne character as the searchers is a ford film , and 60 years ago , they left an impression on cinema that is still seen throughout the medium to this very day . —a . c .

what’s the saying ? if you’re going to steal , steal from the best . that’s what sergio leone did back in 1964 , when he released a fistful of dollars upon the world and in doing so reinvigorated a whole genre under the “spaghetti western” tag . the film is a straight - up rip - off of akira kurosawa ’s masterpiece , yojimbo , and unapologetically so . but leone proves that lifting a story out of its setting and populating it with a whole new cast of characters works as a narrative tactic . he made stronger movies throughout his career , but a fistful of dollars , for all of its influence over the western from the 1960s forward , is arguably his most important . —a . c .
when you think of western movies , you probably picture the grandeur of the american frontier : big , open expanses of land capped off with an endless blue sky , a rugged panorama rife with as much danger as opportunity . you probably don’t think of intimacy of setting . in that respect , johnny guitar is an anomaly of sorts in a genre that is routinely vast in its physical scope and scale : the film takes place almost exclusively in a saloon that stands just two stories high . you can chalk all of this up either to invention or , more realistically , to budgeting snafus , but johnny guitar ’s small stature doesn’t hold it back from being a solid western . ever notice the homoerotic tensions that crackle between the good guys and the bad guys in western films ? johnny guitar plays with that by channeling the energy back and forth from joan crawford to mercedes mccambridge—their characters loathe each other , but not as much as crawford loathed mccambridge and vice versa . that little reversal is enough to make the film feel special despite being so scant . —a . c .
is the western the most american of movie genres ? you can make an argument for the western film’s internationality on the names of the directors who have contributed to its iconography : you have your john fords and your anthony manns , your sam peckinpahs and your samuel fullers , but over in europe you also have filmmakers like sergio leone , enzo g . castellari and sergio corbucci , among many , many others , as authors of western offshoots that influence filmmakers even today . ( and of course there are those great entries in the western canon that were lifted wholesale from akira kurosawa ’s filmography . ) hell , let’s flash from the western’s glory days to the last decade , where kim jee - woon and takashi miike have put their individual stamps on its tropes and motifs . for these reasons , there’s certainly an argument to made that the western is truly “universal . ”

arguably the greatest of the italian westerns , but also one of the finest westerns ever made . leone’s penchant for turning the genre’s sacred themes and obsessions inside out goes full tilt here . clint eastwood and lee van cleef are back for this third dollars movie , but the addition of eli wallach adds a significant amount of caustic humor and even more cynicism to the mix . set during the civil war , though in a dry , barren landscape resembling the surreal panels of a krazy kat cartoon more than historical reality , leone’s epic is the sublime , gloriously cinematic creation that he was always gunning for . composer ennio morricone’s score ties it all together , particularly in the orgasmic “ecstasy of gold” finale . the director may have gone even more baroque with his subsequent once upon a time in the west , but this is still his greatest achievement . pop culture and the genre were never the same . —d . h .

but no matter where western movies are made , no matter what subgenre classifications they are individually accorded , and no matter who makes them , the films always engage with symbols , eras and images that are quintessentially “american . ” the western is the domain of the cowboy , the solitary hero . it’s a place where law and chaos are ever in conflict with one another and where the difference between survival and death usually comes down to who is faster on the draw . it’s a testament to the rich , awesome power of the western as a narrative mode that filmmakers from around the planet have found stories worth telling within its purview , but even the italian maestros simply added their own unique ( and significant ) flourishes to a cinematic tradition that is american in its dna .
greed is a recurring theme throughout the western , whether in the scheming cynicism of vera cruz , the landowner conflicts of once upon a time in the west and shane , or in the naked spur , where greed is a divisive force . in john huston’s the treasure of the sierra madre , greed is corruptive . greed corrodes your soul and poisons you against your comrades . greed persuades you to yank your prospecting partner out of bed and shoot him in the dead of night . all that and more for bags of gold that wind up being tossed to the wind like so much chaff . it isn’t all ugliness and gloom—in one particularly noble gesture , walter huston’s howard saves a kid’s life—and there are even a few laughs along the way ( most of them huston’s ) , but the treasure of the sierra madre ’s morality tale about the taint of avarice is deeply sobering as an anti - capitalist screed . —a . c .

you know rancho notorious has to be pretty damn great if mel brooks felt comfortable using its female lead as the basis for blazing saddles ’ lili von shtupp . you also know it has to be pretty damn great because it’s a fritz lang film , and fritz lang films generally tend to be high - caliber affairs . that’s as true of rancho notorious as most anything in lang’s body of work , but by consequence of its creator , it’s probably better categorized as a lang movie than as a western . sure , rancho notorious boasts all of the standard tropes and details we like about western films—gunfights , fistfights , bank robberies , jailbreaks—but it’s also replete with the standard thematic interests you’ll find peppered across all of lang’s productions , summed up best by the last line of the film’s introductory song : “hate , murder , and revenge ! ” lang likes inflicting endurance - level suffering on his protagonists , and rancho notorious , a noir - grim yarn in which a ranch hand tracks down his fiancée’s killer to an outlaw hideout disguised as a saloon , is no exception . —a . c .
one of the finest non - leone italian westerns . it’s also , along with a bullet for the general and the great silence , the best of the so - called marxist westerns . lee van cleef is hired by a railroad baron to track down a mexican outlaw , played by the seedily charismatic tomas milian , accused of raping a teenaged white girl . but van cleef’s firm belief in right and wrong and just use of corporate power are challenged once he’s on the hunt . there are some marvelously eccentric touches , e . g . , wild torture sequences , and a knife vs . gun duel . ennio morricone’s score is one of his grandest . but what makes the big gundown one of the truly great westerns is the central , complex relationship between van cleef’s bounty hunter and milian’s revolutionary fugitive , and the pair’s brilliant performances . —d . h .
lawrence kasdan’s winning homage benefited from a sterling ensemble cast ( scott glenn , kevin costner , kevin cline , danny glover , brian dennehy , john cleese , jeff goldblum , rosanna arquette ) , keen pacing—both in action and humor—and an all - in approach to the classic western . the traditional motifs are all there as a quartet of cowboys treks to the film’s namesake town and helps its citizens fight back against corrupt powers that be . from fraught duels to wagon trains and cattle stampedes , silverado is neither revisionist nor original , but it’s terrifically energetic and fun , not to mention beautifully polished in production . —a . s .
a john ford movie without henry fonda or john wayne is like a birthday cake without candles , or the fourth of july without fireworks . but wagon master finds more than suitable replacements in ben johnson and harry carey jr . , who play , as you might expect , wagon masters hired to help a mormon wagon train make it to utah in one piece . that they are imperilled along the way by a pack of dastardly bandits is par for the western course . that the film exudes so much warmth and general good feeling is , perhaps , far more surprising , not just for its genre but for its creator . ford is not widely regarded as sentimental , or gentle , or even the least bit cuddly , but wagon master is such a good - tempered romp that you might not expect to see his name on the marquee whatsoever . —a . c .

for those who need to be cajoled into watching day of the outlaw , consider the presence of burl ives , and robert ryan , and andre de toth . and if you worship at the altar of tarantino , consider day of the outlaw as required viewing—it’s a clear predecessor to and influence on the hateful eight , one of the best films of 2015 , though de toth’s noir - forward approach to the western genre makes this tale of snowbound frontier justice worth your time and our collective admiration on its own merits . a minor classic is still a classic , after all . —a . c .

the spaghetti western is a subgenre of the western , and the zapata western is a subgenre of the spaghetti western . it’s a subgenre within a subgenre , a subgenre inception , or not . what really matters here is that a bullet for the general is a great flick whether or not you care about categorizations ; if you do , it’s probably important to note that this is one of the better known and more influential westerns of its make . most important to know is that klaus kinski plays a grenade - lobbing idealist priest and gian maria volontè plays his profiteering bandit brother . their philosophical differences throw a spanner in the works as they fight to support revolution in mexico . kinski is most often remembered for his roles in westerns like the great silence , but the gusto and relish he shows in a bullet for the general is equally unforgettable . —a . c .

maybe hondo is the quintessential john wayne film , maybe it isn’t . it’s certainly his best performance , though there are strong arguments to be made for true grit and the searchers . but leaving those arguments for another time , hondo is a definitive western . it is undoubtedly a definitive john wayne western , one that sees the great american cowboy refining and honing himself as a performer , sculpting his image as well as the figure of archetypal manhood he played throughout his career . he’s a man’s man , that hondo , but he’s sensitive , too , the kind of guy who’ll teach your son , bereft of a present father , how to fish and how to swim , and instruct him on the importance of good axe maintenance ; later , he’ll tell you that you smell “all over like a woman , ” and maybe he’ll make poetic pronouncements about the failures of human language . hondo’s layers make him an enduring character even in wayne’s storied filmography , and by consequence elevate hondo from a good western to a great one . —a . c .

it is and always has been the fashion to criticize actors for so - called vanity projects , when they dare to get in the director’s chair while keeping their faces in front of the camera . if you want to accuse kevin costner of being vain , by all means . but don’t conflate perceived vanity with caliber of filmmaking . maybe open range is a vain movie . it does , after all , end with an explosive and extended gun battle in which costner transforms from a broken - down ex - soldier into the whirlwind of death he is framed as in whispers and through innuendos that pepper the film’s script . call that a naked ego boost if you like . open range confidently takes its time building to a violent crescendo . it earns its gunplay . there’s no vanity in that whatsoever—just good old - fashioned storytelling know - how , capped off with a technical display of real - time action that proved a necessary tonic in a post - matrix moviegoing era . —a . c .

maybe it’s more accurate to say that they made the western their own . spaghetti westerns are , after all , a cousin to american westerns in terms of style , content , themes and morality . the italian westerns are literally gritty where american westerns are polished and clean ; they deal in ambiguity instead of black and white . the average spaghetti western hero looks like a total bastard next to the clean - cut heroes of american westerns , who uphold all of the best and most commonly accepted standards of heroism as we know them . who would you rather save the day for you ? will kane , or the man with no name ? there’s a divide separating the westerns made by europeans and those shot by americans , but if you can sort these movies out by their varying approaches , you can’t keep them all from standing under one umbrella . ( a better point of debate : did the spaghetti western become a thing in 1958 or 1964 ? )

it ' s not too bad , but the good cast builds up expectations for this western that are not really fulfilled . the story is just fair , and only the occasional good action scenes keep it going . it stars randolph scott , and has a good supporting cast that includes the likes of harry carey , buster crabbe , and more . the story has quite a bit going on , most of it focusing on rival groups of buffalo hunters . a lot happens , but much of the time it doesn ' t seem to fit together that well , and there are some slow stretches that could easily have been shortened or omitted . it ' s worth a look for the cast if you like older westerns , but don ' t expect too much .

a strange , troubled , underrated , masochistic western . the production was problematic to say the least , compounded when the original director , stanley kubrick , was fired after butting heads with his star one too many times . marlon brando took over the directing duties , and it’s his vision and obsessions that permeate every tortured frame … not always to good effect . it’s certainly riveting in its psychological dimensions , however , and even when brando is at his most excessive , the result is always fascinating and weird . brando plays a tortured , revenge - minded gunslinger who goes up against his old friend who once betrayed him , played by karl malden . the movie’s seaside monterey locale adds a distinctive presence to the otherwise angsty proceedings . freud would have had a field day with this one . —d . h .

ah , django . who can say no to that soundtrack ? who can pass up the grizzled mug of franco nero , or the filmic stylings of sergio corbucci ? quentin tarantino certainly couldn’t , and thus we have django unchained as a delightfully violent relic of 2012 ( see no . 85 ) . more importantly , we have django and we have django , a righteous , coffin - dragging , gunslinging , erstwhile union soldier wandering the united states - mexico border who winds up caught between tattered remnants of the confederacy and mexican revolutionaries . django cuts a figure of cool reserve , the kind we’ve come to associate with the spaghetti western’s antihero archetype ; he’s out for a cause , his own cause , and he sees his cause realized through the subterfuge and manipulation favored by his forebears ( a fistful of dollars , and by extension yojimbo ) .

if you’re a gunfighter , you schedule your life around shootouts in the wide - open streets of dusty old frontier towns . it’s what you do . but what happens when you leave that life and that life refuses to leave you ? what do you do when you are the sum of your reputation , a target for the latest young quick drawin‘ upstart on the block to challenge , and nothing more ? well , you kill those young quick drawin‘ upstarts as they come at you , albeit with a healthy dose of reluctance . the gunfighter is a doleful little ditty , quick , to the point , jam - packed with incident , and shaped by its tone as much as its action—plus gregory peck’s jawsome , bitter , remorseful leading performance . it’s darwin’s kind of western , a movie where the fastest survives but in which surviving and living don’t exactly line up with one another . —a . c .
the movie’s opening scenes are startling and mesmerizing : missouri farmer eastwood is unable to save his wife and child from being murdered by a band of ruthless jayhawkers , led by the nasty bill mckinney ( deliverance ) . having survived the assault and with nothing left to lose but his life , wales joins a bunch of confederate - allied bushwhackers and enters the civil war , hoping that he will again run into mckinney’s captain terrill and his gang . upon refusing to surrender after the war , wales goes rogue and meets up with a number of outsiders—an old indian chief and young woman , and an elderly woman and her granddaughter—in an attempt to remake his family down in texas , far from the violence that has consumed his life . at once adventurous and even comical at times , the outlaw josey wales is also cast with elegiac tones via cinematographer bruce surtees . it’s a triumph and one of eastwood’s career highlights . —d . h .

director budd boetticher is one of the greatest pulp poets the american western genre ever produced . as with anthony mann’s 1950s work in the genre , boetticher’s productions are narratively taut and sizzling with undercurrents of sex , violence and sadism . it’s great stuff . his best movies were those starring matinee favorite randolph scott , a standard , chiseled hollywood hero , going toe - to - toe with neurotic , psychopathic heavies , like james best in this one . boetticher builds up tension to a feverish degree , though the finale is unexpected in its moral weight and thoroughly satisfying . essential . —d . h .

ritter has said that she is “excited to see what happens next for jessica” .
showrunner melissa rosenberg has been speaking in vague enough terms about what to expect from jessica jones season 2 . ms . rosenberg told deadline back in november about what shape things might take .
jones : … twenty - odd . but what’s gonna happen when they don’t leave : : . i hope that they could leave … but what’s gonna happen when they don’t leave ?
so what have the original cast been up to since the first movie . . .
if i did not know what i was talking about . is there any way to call
he didn’t say a lot . obviously , he’s got to handle his legal proceedings ,
white said .
his lawyer didn’t have him say much . what we wanted to find out is what the facts were . there’s a lot of things that are being said out there about what happened that day , a lot of them are untrue , a lot of them are speculation , and we wanted to hear jon’s side of the story and we wanted to hear what his lawyer had to say about it .
van fossan said she’s “listening with ears wide open” to what native activists will want to do next . she’s convinced that what’s happening at standing rock is the beginning of a “cultural transformation . ”
what ' s the difference between england , britain and the u . k . ?
you say that you want people to remember the good parts of jonestown . what were the good parts ?
“you know i had become the home secretary in june . perhaps if i’d started it that first day that i became home secretary , something might have happened to save rhys’s life .
what happened to adam jones , though , isn’t only a boston problem , and singling out boston allows 250 million or so white americans to let themselves off the hook for behavior with which we’re all to some degree stained . by making this a boston issue , everyone from outside the city sidesteps our own complicity in the hundreds of years of american history that led to this moment .
we wrote about the shape the season might take and what stories it might explore right here .
bridger had admitted killing the schoolgirl , but claimed it had happened accidentally when he hit her with his car . he claimed he placed her body in his land rover and went for help , but then had no recollection of what he had done with the body .
if they’ll take us in immediately . otherwise we die . i don’t know what else you say to these people .
“in the lost cause mythology , the south was united , and secession had nothing to do with slavery , ” said moulds . “what happened in jones county puts the lie to that , so the lost causers have to paint newt as a common outlaw , and above all else , deny all traces of unionism . with the movie coming out , they’re at it harder than ever . ”

“they won’t be monitoring him all the time . we know what he’s like . he and the others showed us absolutely no respect during the trial – sitting there laughing and joking in the dock . so what’s to say he will respect this ?
thank you again nina for your comments on what to me is a cherished footnote in personal and local history . i enjoy the dialogue .
i don’t now what’s going to happen ,
white said candidly .
we have suspended him indefinitely . obviously he needs to focus on his legal matters .
christine : well , i say let’s make an air - airlift to russia , that’s what i say . i : : don’t think nothing is impossible
the crowd becomes more vocal in their denunciation of christine . she responds to jones but must also respond to the shouts of temple members . she unintentionally supports jones’ authority in trying to parry the comments from the crowd . rather than respond , she asks jones to identify a speaker . she asks jones to “let her or let me talk . ” she asserts that jones has the command , and he allows the speakers their turn . although she is an individual , she must continue to ask jones for permission to speak . she is angry , and she emphasizes words such as sit down . her anger is clearly directed at the comments of the crowd , which are not the civil protestations of jones . she is respectful to jones but curt in her answers to women in the crowd .
the shocking murder of 11 - year - old schoolboy rhys jones is being reexamined by itv in the murder of rhys jones : police tapes .
jones :  i haven’t seen anybody yet that didn’t die : : . and i’d like to choose
white said he finally spoke to jones on tuesday to get his side of the story before the promotion took any action against him .
jones agrees with christine that children deserve to live but then insidiously includes the phrase “what’s more . ” he states that the children should live , but more importantly they deserve peace . christine inadvertently assists jones in his argument by claiming that they all have come here for peace . this statement allows jones to counter with the phrase “have we had it ? ” the crowd responds no and even christine must concede that they have not .
the show will see the legal and personal ramifications of rhys jones ' death .
as far as jones’ future with the ufc , that remains up the air .
jones : call the russians and tell them and see if they’ll take us .
jones : mm - hmmm . i’m not criticizing , i’m not ( incoherent )
jim jones is described as “charismatic” and “manipulative , ” but these labels are applied without clear understanding of the strength of his speech ; they are presented as an end to the discussion rather than areas to be explored . the word “charismatic” is vague and evokes a sense of commanding charm , attraction , and gravity . charisma is used to describe jones without fully identifying what drew his followers to him . the adjective “manipulative” is not defined either . how was jones able to persuade his followers to have sex with him , to relinquish their property , and ultimately to commit suicide by drinking poison ? to end with these descriptions disrespects the victims . vague adjectives offer no understanding of the hold jones had over his community .

unidentified woman ( in background ) : she talks like she wants to leave us , well , she can go ahead … they’re our individual lives , that’s what you’re saying .

jones allies himself with the community , posing as a christ - figure who assumes the sins of his people . he does not separate himself from the community even if he is not directly responsible for the murders . similarly , jones expects the community to assume this responsibility . as communists , they are all guilty for what has occurred beyond the gates of jonestown .
: ( ( so sad to see houses that once had life , people , children , love , gone . but that is what is need to bring it back ! life , people , love , and christ !
* the murder of rhys jones : police tapes airs on thursday on itv at 9pm .
“there was no free state of jones , ” he concluded . “it never existed . ”
jones : > no , they didn’t . they gave us the code that they’d let us
mugabe , never a great romantic , took a practical approach . “it was necessary for me to look for someone and , even as sally was still going through her last few days , although it might have appeared to some as cruel , i decided to make love to [ grace ] . she happened to be one of the nearest and she was a divorcee herself . and so it was , ” he said in the same interview .
jones : > maybe the next time you’ll get to go to russia ( . 5 ) the next time ‘round ( 1 ) × hh this is , > what i’m talking about to now is in the dispensation of judgment . this is the revolutionary su , sui … this is revolutionary suicide council , ( . 5 ) i’m not talking about self , self - destruction . ( 1 ) i’m talking about what , we have no other road : : . i will take your call : : . we will put it to the russians
then : gemma jones played mrs . pamela jones , bridget’s sharp - tongued , exasperated mother . her tasteless christmas jumpers , that she gifts to bridget and mark , deserve their very own billing , and she is desperate for bridget to settle down .
obviously he’s very disappointed ,
white said .
he’s upset , he wanted to go down as one of the greatest ever , but it is what it is . it was the decision we had to make .
according to state data , attendance at jones beach dipped to about 2 . 8 million people in 2013 , down from about 3 . 4 million in 2012 .
jones takes this opportunity to further alienate christine . he has dispensed with compliments and chides christine on the way she has spoken to him . he states that she is behaving improperly by attempting to tell him how to act . christine was asking for an audience free from crowd interruptions , but jones twists her request into a demand she makes of him . he then returns to her questions about russia and expresses his exasperation with what he sees as a foolish request . he aligns the two questions to portray christine as an agitator making incessant and unreasonable demands . he asks christine “what more do you suggest” conveying his exasperation to the crowd that has become more involved , breaking in to these exchanges with unintelligible but angry outbursts . jones assumes the role of an exasperated father who has exhausted all options to appease a child . christine’s request was foolish , but he entertained it for a bit . now he is done .
and if people did defect , jim said he ' d send them things that had poison on them . at least , that ' s what he told us he was doing . it ' s really hard to tell what he was actually doing . in the long run , jim gave in to drugs and he got himself boxed into a corner . and his paranoia got completely out of control .
she’s been praised for talking openly about her eldest son ollie who was born with down’s syndrome . we should celebrate children with the condition , she says , and even appeared with her family in an episode of cbeebies mr tumble . she said : “having ollie has taught me what really matters in life and what is of value . ”
jones hasn’t spoken publicly since the incident outside of a message he released on twitter on tuesday .
jones : i’m not taking it from ¯ you . < i’m not taking it from you .
under the ufc’s code of conduct policy , the promotion has the right to suspend jones indefinitely for behavior detrimental to the organization . ufc officials haven’t placed a time limit on how long jones will remain suspended or indicated if he’ll ever fight in the octagon again .
a military base builds a ray gun to take over and / or destory the world . what is needed to power this gun is a sheep , when a sheep of a small country farm is chosen it escapes to a nearby city and the chase is on . . .
new york ( cbsnewyork / ap ) — world - famous jones beach state park is about to get a major face - lift .
only one member of the jonestown community speaks out at any length against him . christine miller presents alternatives to suicide , arguments contrary to the focus of jones’ commands . the exchange between jim jones and christine miller is crucial to comprehending the tragic events that followed . christine represents the loudest voice opposed to jones . her opposition seemingly represents hope to those preparing to die . she does not convince the members that suicide is unnecessary , but if she had attracted others , momentum might have shifted and the catastrophe averted .
recently i decided to take the vaughan exit off i - 55 to see how this little hamlet was doing . it’s been a while since i was through , maybe 2004 or 2005 , but even then it seemed like things were slipping away . vaughan was never a big town–maybe it would have qualified as a “ village ” back when that designation was still an official one . vaughan’s primary claim to fame was the train wreck that killed engineer casey jones and that was made famous in “ the ballad of casey jones . ” the wreck , which happened in 1900 , occurred about a mile north of the vaughan downtown .
the district attorney from bernalillo count has 60 days to take jones’ case before the grand jury to seek an indictment against the fighter . the felony charges carry a penalty of up to three years in prison .
breaks had beaten his sister ' s boyfriend simon sutton to death , and forced her sons to stamp on his dying body . the killer believed sutton had
grassed
on him over a scheme to blackmail hsbc , and later invited his mother and friends around to show them the corpse , telling them :
that is what happens to grasses .
jones : we win : : , ( . 5 ) we win when we go down . > tim stoen has nobody else to hate
marvel’s jessica jones will return to netflix following the release of the defenders . here is everything you need to know about season 2 including its release date , cast and more .
here was only one moment in the trial which proved too difficult to watch . melanie jones fled the courtroom before a crucial piece of evidence was presented – the eight - second cctv clip which showed the moment of rhys jones ' s death .
jones remains in control . he is responsible for issuing peace to his followers ; they cannot find it elsewhere . the remainder of the passage is a bit muddled as speakers away from the microphone are talking with jones , but the tape does not record their voices . jones concludes this passage by again blaming others for what has occurred . he blames tim stoen , the people temple’s former lawyer , and now chief antagonist . he enunciates that they have done this . he pauses , then slowly belabors his message : they have destroyed us .
christine is now defensive and must ally herself with jones and the congregation . she explains that her protests are not born of fear . she emphatically states that “by no means” is she “afraid to die . ” she clarifies to jones and the assembled that her protestations are not based on fear or self - preservation . she then appeals to the basic love the community has for its children . she emphasizes babies in an attempt to remind the congregation what will actually result from their decision to commit suicide . christine reminds the community that this act of revolutionary death involves the killing of children .
mike mcclain , fox 5 news director , provided this statement : “constance jones has left ‘good day atlanta’ to return home to south florida . we wish her the very best . ”
once white got the information he required , the ufc moved swiftly to strip jones of his light heavyweight title while suspending him indefinitely . jones was set to face anthony johnson in the main event of ufc 187 before he was suspended . now , jones’ hated rival daniel cormier will take his place in the may 23 fight as the new main event with the light heavyweight title on the line .
april jones vanished five years ago and former slaughterman mark bridger , 47 , was convicted of her murder .
the murder of eleven - year - old rhys jones is still felt throughout the nation ten years later .
filming is now underway on season two of jessica jones , which krysten ritter has called a “serious undertaking” .
i’m here in jones county , mississippi , to breathe in the historical vapors left by newton knight , a poor white farmer who led an extraordinary rebellion during the civil war . with a company of like - minded white men in southeast mississippi , he did what many southerners now regard as unthinkable . he waged guerrilla war against the confederacy and declared loyalty to the union .
according to the police report , jones was identified at the scene of the accident by an off - duty police officer who witnessed the three - car crash . paperwork belonging to
jonathan jones
was found in the vehicle he was driving along with a marijuana pipe with marijuana in it .
jones : i know : , but he’s no , he’s no > different to me than any of these children  here : . he’s just one
jones stammers in his response to christine . he stumbles over the word it five times before regaining composure . although unintelligible , the crowd is strong in its support of jones and derisive in their response to christine . with the crowd solidly behind him , jones makes a definitive statement on the possibility of emigrating to russia . he claims that after the murder of the congressman and others on the port kaituma airstrip , they will not be welcome in russia .
jones : i , i , < peace , peace , peace , peace , peace , peace , peace .
while the job itself is not that high - profile — special adviser on green jobs — jones’ departure from the position is the first real scalp claimed by the republican right , which stoked much of the criticism of jones .
“i can never know if that’s the case , but what i do know is that i hope i paid honour to rhys and his family by putting a real focus for the government on tackling that sort of violence after his death . ”
early on , robot jones ' s voice was a robospeak voice . his voice was changed to a human , and was dubbed over the old episodes .
victoria bynum traces the origins and legacy of the jones county uprising from the american revolution to the modern civil rights movement . in bridging the gap between the legendary and the real free state of jones , she shows how the legend reveals a great deal about the south ' s transition from slavery to segregation .
speaking about kilgrave ' s comeback to jessica jones , showrunner melissa rosenberg told entertainment weekly : “he’s such a part of her construction and her dilemma . ”
renee had already come to people’s attention for her role in jerry maguire alongside tom cruise’s slick sports agent but bridget jones gave her her first oscar nomination .

jim jones founded peoples temple with seemingly noble principles . he supported racial equality during a time when many americans were opposed to integration . these principles drew people to him , people who existed on the margins of society or who had grown antipathetic to established intolerance . these ideals obscured the troubled psychology of jones , a man seemingly unable to resist the trappings of power and his own nefarious drives .
as o ' shea tells it , jones ' s idealism was a large part of what made him so lethal . he tapped into the zeitgeist of the late 1960s and 1970s , feeding on people ' s fears and promising to create a
rainbow family
where everyone would truly be equal . he was charismatic enough to lure hundreds of people to a south american jungle , where he cut off all their ties with the outside world .
christine is defiant , and the emphasis on her words indicates her willingness to counter jones’ argument . she emphasizes the word that to firmly assert her independence . she is quick to return the argument to russia . it seems that christine is not terribly concerned with the attack on the airstrip . she understands jones’ intent and struggles to find an alternative . this differs from jones as he presents the attack at the airstrip as pivotal for the mass suicide . in this manner , christine attacks his goal by dismissing his reasoning as unimportant . jones’ main argument for suicide rests on his belief in communal culpability ; christine is not even giving the argument credence . she acknowledges the need to leave but presents options against death .
what was good about jonestown was not jim jones . it was the people he attracted . they came from every walk of life , from the very well educated to the totally uneducated . some had lots of money . some were living off of social security , and some didn ' t even have that . it could have been you . it was me .
ufc light heavyweight champion jon jones has been stripped of his title effective immediately and is suspended from the promotion indefinitely .
much as ross wanted to shoot the movie in jones county , there were irresistible tax incentives to film across the border in louisiana , and some breathtaking cypress swamps where various cast members were infested with the tiny mites known as chiggers . nevertheless , ross and mcconaughey spent a lot of time in jones county , persuading many county residents to appear in the film .

george gorman , a spokesman for the state office of parks , recreation and historic preservation , said a public meeting will be held to discuss the plans for jones beach and to seek the public’s input .
christine continues to press the idea of an emigration to russia . she remains undeterred and insists that jones address her suggestions before moving forward . jones has an agenda , and her comments are causing him to stray from his intent , but they require a response , as she is presenting options that , as unlikely as it seems , might take hold in the pavilion .
jones has already invited “anyone that has any dissenting opinion , please speak , ” an attempt to convey an appreciation for those who feel differently . christine miller seizes this opportunity and uses jones’ own language to counter his argument . peoples temple had allied themselves with the communist party , and there existed a vague idea the community could emigrate and thrive under the aegis of the soviet union ( hall 249 - 250 ) . miller is using jones’ former plans to create an alternative to suicide . she is not defying jones ; she is presenting options . this is not a direct confrontation ; it is a calm and logical discourse of alternatives . she speaks quickly and with an emphasis on russia to express her belief in an alternative , an alternative jones had seemingly espoused . this is not her idea ; it is his .
“he ' s an extraordinary actor , and one of the loveliest people you ' d ever want to work with - but the show is called jessica jones . ”
mother jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and the wealthy wouldn’t fund the type of hard - hitting journalism we set out to do .
i was fortunate that i had an opportunity to escape and i took it . even then , i thought jim jones would find me and kill me . i had to get to the point where i didn ' t care if i died . i just wanted to have my own life , however short it might be . my goal , in fact , was that i wanted to live to be 30 so i could have a rich and full life . now i have a daughter who ' s 29 , and i ' m 60 . i ' ve had double what i wished for .
there were loudspeakers all over the compound , and jim jones ' s voice was on them almost 24 / 7 . he couldn ' t be talking all the time , but he ' d tape what he said and then play it back all day long . and the rule was that we couldn ' t talk when jim jones was talking . so on the loudspeakers , he ' d suddenly call out ,
white night ! white night ! get to the to the pavilion ! run ! your lives are in danger !
everyone would rush to the pavilion in middle of the encampment .
jones was sought as a
person of interest
in the hit - and - run accident , but the albuquerque police eventually upgraded him to a suspect before issuing a warrant for his arrest on felony charges for leaving the scene of an accident . jones eventually surrendered to police on monday before being released on $ 2 , 500 bond .
jones came to atlanta from miami late last summer , effectively replacing karen graham , who is now pursuing her own on - line tv network targeting those who are deaf .
speaking with nerdist , melissa rosenberg wouldn ' t commit to the idea of getting trish walker into her hellcat alter ego just yet . “you have to earn secondary character stories ,
she said .
you have to flesh them out enough so that they can eventually carry stories of their own , which is very much what season one was about . ”
ormer slaughterman mark bridger , 47 , who lived locally , was arrested the day after she vanished and later convicted of her abduction and murder . he told police who detained him : “i know what it is about . ”
one of jones ' s football coaches heard about the shooting , and drove his mother melanie to the car park where he lay dying . paramedics spent an hour and a half trying to resuscitate him , but were unable to save the boy ' s life .

the whole russia thing is a big nothing - burger . there is nothing you can do - -

max j . rosenthal was a reporter at the mother jones dc bureau covering national security , surveillance , and occasional sports shenanigans .
christine then appeals to jones’ love of john stoen , the paternity of whom has been claimed by two men who are now desperate adversaries : jim jones and tim stoen . christine asks jones if he would be comfortable with the death of a child he considered his own son . the crowd answers before jones can sufficiently respond . they are angry , and jones eventually tries to settle the crowd by slowly chanting peace seven times . he places himself within the community and claims that no one life is more valued than another . he then places himself as the community’s protector , a protector that would stand with christine if she had committed a crime . an unidentified man from the crowd summarizes the majority opinion stating that they are ready to die , and “if you tell us we have to give our lives now , we’re ready . ”
but that ' s not what i was talking about . i have been consistently pushing my fellow democrats to deal with bread and butter issues - - and not just hope and believe trump will be impeached and gone tomorrow . i have been beating this drum for weeks now .
so with that in mind , i have my own theories on who ms . mcteer might be playing , but revealing them here could be considered a spoiler . on the other hand , jessica jones herself ( well , whoever plays her on twitter at least ) , offered this clue , which doesn ' t necessarily line up with what i ' m thinking :
on the night of october 5 , major mclemore was staying at his friend amos deason’s mansion in ellisville , when someone—almost certainly newt knight—burst in and shot him to death . soon afterward , there was a mass meeting of deserters from four piney woods counties . they organized themselves into a company called the jones county scouts and unanimously elected knight as their captain . they vowed to resist capture , defy tax collectors , defend each other’s homes and farms , and do what they could to aid the union .
howell’s book was published in 1988 , so obviously the museum wasn’t even enough to keep the few “downtown” buildings going if he was already describing it as a “ghost town . ” i’m not sure how successful the museum was , since casey jones’ hometown , jackson , tennessee , has its own casey jones museum . not to be left out , water valley , up the mainline , has a casey jones museum too , housed in a reconstructed railroad building on the old railroad line in downtown .
and brian f . o’byrne . sean mercer and rhys jones are played by two young liverpudlian actors , paddy rowan and sonny beyga .
he is the only lead actor from the original cast who won’t be a part of the sequel “bridget jones’s baby . ” sob .

please remember to always ask for written permission of a landowner before visiting an archaeological site on private property . never take anything from a site or disturb it in any way unless the landowner has given permission and you know how to keep a careful record of what is removed . it can be a trespassing violation to gather artifacts on private property without the written permission of the landowner .
got a lot of soul searching to do . sorry to everyone i ' ve let down .
a synopsis for the second run reads :
new york city private investigator jessica jones ( krysten ritter ) is beginning to put her life back together after murdering her tormenter , kilgrave .
returning home , they found their wives struggling to keep up the farms and feed the children . even more aggravating , the confederate authorities had imposed an abusive , corrupt “tax in kind” system , by which they took what they wanted for the war effort— horses , hogs , chickens , corn , meat from the smokehouses , homespun cloth . a confederate colonel named william n . brown reported that corrupt tax officials had “done more to demoralize jones county than the whole yankee army . ”
jones : × hhh well , someday everybody dies : : : , someplace that hope runs out . ‘cause everybody dies : : : .
it was a combination of that and finding out little by little what was real and what wasn ' t . the turning point for me was in the jungle one day , when one of the aluminum roofs slipped off one of the cottages and made this loud bang . jim jones went out of his skin . he was terrified . and i thought , wait a second - - - why hasn ' t he been terrified all these other times when people were supposedly attacking us with guns ? now a tin roof falls and he ' s scared ? that ' s when i realized that the guns weren ' t real .
there were a number of lawsuits going on in united states , calling on jim jones to come back . jim ' s lawyer , mark lane , had come down to guyana and told him there was a conspiracy against him . so jim sent mark back to the united states to handle the lawsuits and take care of the situation .
after leaving school with six cses , he enrolled at croydon college to study engineering , but in an early sign of his failure to commit to anything properly , he failed to finish the course .
by tuesday morning , major league baseball commissioner rob manfred condemned the fan or fans who shouted at jones , as did red sox manager john farrell and the mayor of boston . red sox owner john henry and team president sam kennedy also met with jones and orioles manager buck showalter .
then he would tell us that in the united states , african americans were being herded into concentration camps , that there was genocide on the streets . they were coming to kill and torture us because we ' d chosen what he called the socialist track . he said they were on their way .
on him and trying to break up this family and they’ve all agreed to kill us by any means necessary . you think i’m going to deliver them
no , when the final time came , i think people were aware it was real thing . it had been a very , very bad day . congressman ryan had come to investigate the compound and people were leaving with him . people argued with jim , but anyone who didn ' t want to commit suicide was held down and shot with needles filled with potassium cyanide . unless you were one of the lucky ones who happened to sneak off into the jungle , you were dead . they went around with stethoscopes , and if you still had a heartbeat , you ' d be shot .
in the preceding exchange , christine and jones debate the possibility of escaping to russia seeking the protection of the communist party . in his response to christine , jones is insidious . she is “a very good agitator , ” he says , hoping to quell christine’s protest by complimenting her . praise from the leader of the community surely resulted in feelings of pride and appreciation . rather than directly deny christine’s claims , jones validates her but continues to dismiss her argument . she is good , but her argument is flawed . he then reiterates the lack of alternatives . he claims that owing to the lies of defectors and the ensuing investigation , we must commit suicide . his offers nothing else .
james o ' keefe and his distorted videos are just another weapon in trump ' s war on the truth . i don ' t know what the antidote is for this kind of civic poison . but trump ' s biggest supporters , who claim to love both god and country , should demand better .
“it’s great for jones beach , ” said beachgoer ted barnes . “i think great for long island . it’s been a long time coming . ”
if you take any one line of my argument out of context , you can use it to pull off a hoax . that ' s what o ' keefe ' s minions did . the notion that i think trump is innocent of all wrongdoing in russiagate is ludicrous . but perhaps the people on team trump can afford to live in a fantasy world .
he was very charismatic and attracted people who were feeling vulnerable or disenfranchised for whatever reason . most of them were african - american , but there were also white people , jewish people , people of mexican descent . there were religious christians and communists . if you wanted religion , jim jones could give it to you . if you wanted socialism , he could give it to you . if you were looking for a father figure , he ' d be your father . he always homed in on what you needed and managed to bring you in emotionally .
something to consider is that the early alias comics ( which jessica jones is based on ) were focused on relatively shorter cases , and the first attempt to bring jessica jones to the small screen ( on the abc network , which we have more details on right here ) would have seen the show take a more traditional detective show / procedural approach . perhaps the netflix series could play with and subvert that formula a little bit this time around .
the preceding passage is notable for jones’ use of repetition . throughout the exchange , christine has been repeating the previous plans made by jones concerning a possible trip to russia . jones now reiterates his murky logic and his denials of culpability . jones repeats the phrase never five times in describing the community’s persecution . he has never before seen people abuse the law in the manner that they provoked the jonestown community and in the murder of their children . it is repetition preceding a bizarre leap in logic . he includes the phrase , “murder of children , ” a significant expansion of his argument : none of the children in jonestown had yet been murdered . none would be murdered by forces outside of the community . he egregiously lies to further his proof of persecution . he repeats the word never to emphasize the magnitude and exceptionality of the threat to jonestown . this intrusion is unprecedented . jones has referenced history throughout the address to the crowd , so this passage is key in promoting the idea of their precedent and the uniqueness of the response to their experiment .
jones : not going . i can’t live that way . i cannot live that way . i’ve lived for all and i’ve died for all . …
jones : to rus : : : sia ? × hh do you think russia’s gonna want . . no they’re not gonna it , it , it , it , it do you think russia’s gonna want
when secession fever swept across the south in 1860 , jones county was largely immune to it . its secessionist candidate received only 24 votes , while the “cooperationist” candidate , john h . powell , received 374 . when powell got to the secession convention in jackson , however , he lost his nerve and voted to secede along with almost everyone else . powell stayed away from jones county for a while after that , and he was burned in effigy in ellisville .
the parents wanted to show just how close mercer was to getting away his crime , after he was helped by friends and family to cover up the murder .
during my final interview , across a brightly colored plastic table in the mcdonald’s in laurel , there were moments when my brain seized up altogether , and i would sit there stunned , unable to grasp what i was hearing . the two sisters sitting across the table were gently amused . they had seen this many times before . it was , in fact , the normal reaction when they tried to explain their family tree to outsiders .
christine is resolute and reminds him of what he has said in the past about a possible code . jones then explicitly and through his emphasis on specific words , devises a step - by - step progression to their mass suicide . they would let jonestown know , we cannot create a problem for them , check for a code , if a code does not exist , we must die . the > represents a marked increase in jones’ rate of speech . he rushes through the phrase “otherwise we die” and then slows down as he attempts to confound his audience with the logic that death is good and living is treacherous . he rushes through this phrase to avoid a direct focus on the word death . he wants it said , but he does not want the audience to linger on the word .
good day atlanta
host constance jones left waga - tv ' s fox 5 station abruptly last friday without explanation after less than a year there .
in the spring of 1864 , the knight company overthrew the confederate authorities in jones county and raised the united states flag over the county courthouse in ellisville . the county was known as the free state of jones , and some say it actually seceded from the confederacy . this little - known , counterintuitive episode in american history has now been brought to the screen in free state of jones , directed by gary ross ( seabiscuit , the hunger games ) and starring a grimy , scruffed - up matthew mcconaughey as newton knight .
we didn ' t know he was a drug addict . drugs were anathema at the temple ; we weren ' t supposed to do that kind of stuff . i learned after the massacre that he drugged people on the outpost there to keep them from trying to leave , to keep them from trying to dissent , to control them in different ways , all unbeknownst to the masses .
in 2017 kelly and james yates , a fellow defendant in the rhys jones case , were both cleared of any involvement in an alleged drug ring . prosecutors dropped charges after no witnesses came forward to identify them .
jones : tired of people’s lives in my > hands and i certainly don’t want your life in my hands and i’m going to tell you , christine , without me , ( . 5 ) life has no meaning–
jones : oh well , some people do : : . but then … some people do . put it that way . i’m not hostile . ( 5 . 0 ) you had to be honest and you stayed
the white house , in an unusual pre - dawn announcement sunday , said its “green jobs czar” van jones would resign after fierce criticism from republicans about some of his statements and associations prior to joining the administration .
i suggested that i go back with mark and work as his secretary . i told them they shouldn ' t hire an outside secretary who couldn ' t be trusted . so jim sent me back . i went to san francisco and packed up my stuff - what little i had - - and said i was going to the dentist . then i got the next plane out to new york . i changed my name to kim jackson for the longest time , until the fbi finally found me .
hello terrell . not a problem at all . can you provide me an email address to send them to ?
well , one possibility would seem to be adding multiple villains to the show instead of one big bad . when entertainment weekly asked jessica jones season 2 showrunner melissa rosenberg how they top kilgrave she responded ,
or antagonists , plural . no one is ever going to beat david tennant as kilgrave , so you don’t do that . the biggest mistake would be to try to repeat that . you just go , “ok , we’re not doing that , so we have this open to us . ”
christine is silent excepting three statements she makes to plead for the life of another member . she ends her final statement with “and i appreciate you for everything . ” she is now thanking jones for his service to peoples temple . she has relinquished her former protests and is prepared to die with her community , which she does .
o ' shea , who escaped just three weeks before the massacre , recently published a collection of poems and photographs called jonestown lullaby . i spoke to her this morning about her memories of jim jones , including the mass suicide rehearsals he called white nights . she described her dawning realization that jones was going to kill her . and she explained why jonestown should be remembered not as an american curiosity but a cautionary tale for everyday people .
jones parries her argument by returning to his original thesis : we are a community , and as a community we are all complicit in the deaths that have occurred at the airstrip . there is no asylum for murderers .
if you’d have wanted to run , you’d have had to run with them because anybody coulda run today , they would have wanted to . i know you’re not a runner
unlike the random shouting and applause , jim mcelvane speaks into the microphone to support jim jones . his first audible statements definitively end the possibility of alternatives . he states “it’s over , sister , it’s over” and ceases any possibility of objection . another leader from the church has come forward and agreed with jones . the rush is insurmountable as the crowd is inexorably pulled to the side of jones and mcelvane . he continues in jones’ rhetoric claiming the day will be beautiful . jones follows mcelvane with an impassioned summation of his former arguments . he states “we win when we go down” reiterating that their deaths are not defeats but a form of revolutionary suicide . he again blames tim stoen . tim stoen has done this , they have done this ; jones bears only the responsibility he has for his church . once again , he claims he is not guilty , but they all must atone for the attacks . he again claims that he is a prophet , a supernatural emissary who knows the future . lastly he invokes community . he cannot separate from his people , and , he concludes , neither can christine .
