we ' re sure friendly cumbrians rose to this challenge ! some things were not quite as swanky as they had been in 1928 . for example , wartime ' make do and mend ' was still part of everyday life as clothes rationing persisted but on the whole , this pageant was every bit as successful and as much fun as before .
originally , this decorative tin would have contained biscuits made by the well - known firm of carr ' s that was based in carlisle . during the mid - nineteenth century , this was one of the largest bakery businesses in the uk . the company was bought over by mcvities in 1931 ; this was the end of an era for carlisle because carr ' s had always been locally owned . however , when united biscuits acquired mcvities in 1972 , they retained the name of carr ' s for its most famous product - carr ' s water biscuits . these had been the firm ' s signature recipe and the biscuits were originally intended for sailors . made without any fats , the water biscuits stayed fresh on long voyages . of course , it didn ' t take long before they were enjoyed beyond the high seas !

according to aliperti , twelvetrees was an
unexpectedly modern woman .
her independent attitude led to whispers of temperament , and that along with typecasting , studio realignment and a changing industry led to a loss in momentum in the actress ' career . twelvetrees made a film in australia in 1936 before closing out her career in hollywood in 1939 . the faded star then left films for the stage .

few directors have been as derided as maurice elvey . for some , he represents all that ' s bad about british films . yet he holds the record for the number of british films he directed and his reputation is undergoing something of a renaissance . he must have done something right .
he was born william seward folkard in stockton - on - tees . his family was poor and he was working as a hotel pageboy by the age of nine . he took to the stage as an actor at 17 and moved from stage directing to films , directing his first feature in 1913 .
the 30s meant business as usual , and he was handed some of the most prestigious productions of the era as well as the more ordinary . the 40s were harder ( only 9 features ) but it ' s his work in the 50s which gave him such a bad reputation . he made a succession of low - budget stinkers for obscure companies . his total professionalism made him a safe pair of hands for on - time , on - budget completion , but it also made him incapable of struggling against the appalling scripts he was handed . only the loss of an eye forced him into retirement .

one of the first things jesse bright did after being pulled over by police on a recent sunday afternoon was turn on his phone and begin filming .
bright was driving for uber to make some extra cash , but he works full - time as criminal defense attorney in north carolina . as a lawyer , he said , he believes strongly that when people record their interactions with police , it helps reduce confusion if their cases end up in court .
as he aimed his phone in the direction of officers and recorded , bright was surprised to hear wilmington police sgt . kenneth becker tell him that there was a new state law that prohibited him from recording police .
bright told the washington post that he knew better - no such law exists in north carolina .
hey , bud , turn that off , okay ?
becker said .
a tense exchange followed , with becker telling bright to step out of his car , calling him
a jerk ,
then warning him that he
better hope
officers didn ' t find something in his vehicle .
bright told the post that he is working for uber to help pay off his law - school loans . he said he had been hired to take his passenger on a round trip from the man ' s home to a location several miles away where , the man said , he was picking up a paycheck on the final sunday in february .
after the passenger returned to the car holding a piece of paper , bright said he was pulled over moments later .
officers searched the passenger and told bright that he ' d brought the man to a drug house that was under surveillance .
they said i should have known it was a drug house , and i tried to tell them i was an uber driver ,
bright said .
they thought it was some sort of cover .
wilmington police chief ralph evangelous said in a statement this week that his department has
launched an internal investigation
into the feb . 26 incident .
the chief added that
a copy of this statement will be disseminated to every officer within the wilmington police department .
bright said officers eventually searched him and his car but didn ' t find anything . he said both he and his passenger were told they were free to go and neither man was charged .
in a statement sent to the washington post , uber said :
we encourage all riders and drivers to follow the law .
he said becker ' s command to stop recording and the searches - to which he didn ' t consent - were a violation of his constitutional rights . he noted that suppressing video is in an officer ' s best interest because it allows police to dictate the narrative later if a case arises .

and this time there were even more performers with a cast of 5000 taking part ; at the time this was estimated to mean that an incredible 1 in 20 of the local population were involved with the pageant and almost every family had at least one member playing a role . all of which meant that the 1951 pageant was an even bigger spectacle than its predecessor had been , and demonstrated the tremendous faith carlisle had in its ability to put on a good show of its history .
big audiences were expected and they came ! after years of wartime rationing and post war shortages , during which people in carlisle had probably gotten used to keeping calm and being patient , this was again demanded during pageant week when the compact city of carlisle must have been overflowing . the cumberland news told its readers that :
' all good citizens should help to make visitors comfortable and at home . . . be helpful if asked questions ; and show consideration in the queues and in the crowds . . . '
rationing or not , 1951 was a big year for celebrations . as is well known , this was festival of britain year and events were held up and down the uk . these festivities were meant to herald the arrival of a new age in british scientific and technological innovation , and in cultural success . with the dark days of the second world war behind it , the festival was to be the start of britain ' s recovery . but history and the achievements of the past were not left entirely behind and many historical pageants were held that year .
it is often forgotten that the civic week and the pageant held in carlisle that year were the city’s contributions to the nationwide festival . here is our interviewee , bill scott , talking about the excitement of that year when he was just eighteen years old , just click on the arrow to hear him :
the iconic image of edward i , which is now forever associated carlisle’s pageants ( even the most recent pageant parades ) , has the festival of britain logo printed on the bottom right hand corner ; but it is easy to overlook this small detail .
the famous image of edward i arriving in carlisle in 1307 , which was used to advertise the 1951 carlisle pageant .
the artist responsible for this image was frederick george meekley who worked as a graphic artist for the metal box company in carlisle . he was also a prolific and talented painter whose watercolours were regularly exhibited in the city and elsewhere . his best - known works were landscapes of cumbria .
meekley ' s well - known poster image of edward was , very sadly , one of his last creations as he died later that year . his work can also be seen on a souvenir tin produced in tandem with carlisle ' s 1951 civic week and pageant . this item is now very collectable ( check out ebay and see for yourselves ! )
the visit by princess margaret to carlisle during civic week is well documented . her photograph and descriptions of her fashion choices during the week were splashed all over the local press . her attendance in carlisle also meant that the city ' s festivities made it into the national newspapers , spreading the news about carlisle ' s festival contribution even wider . however , those people who recall her time in carlisle can tell us some little known or at least , often - forgotten facts about this time .
princess margaret photographed visiting the industrial exhibition . carr’s biscuit tins can just be seen in the background on the display .
carlisle really went to town with evening festivities during the 1951 civic week . every evening there was a searchlight display by the armed services with massed bands , displays of physical training , riding exhibitions by cavalry officers and even ‘cutlass swinging displays’ performed by men from h . m . s . nuthatch . the war may have been over , but people were still keen to see the forces in action , albeit from a comfortable seat in the grandstand !

is not billed as a children ' s film , like many of kragh - jacobsen ' s earlier works . it is instead
a film for everybody , with a child in the lead .

an interview with writer / director boots riley about his incendiary new film ,
sorry to bother you .
i first watched this on tv many years ago and it was one of those films that stuck in your mind . i decided to try and get hold of the dvd to watch with my family and was so glad to find in on amazon . it is a wonderful film and your heart goes out to alex left to fend for himself in a hostile environment - it begs you to ask the question what would you do in that situation ? could you survive ?
in this context , i find it particularly interesting to note that uri orlev ' s novel , on which the film was based , won the hans christian andersen award . rather than being an honour , this to me is more of a satirical comment on the story ' s faults . do we really want world war ii reduced to a fluffy fairy - tale in which good appears to unfailingly triumph just because of its essential goodness ? it didn ' t , and we should never lose sight of that .

this is an utterly wonderful film about a young jewish boy surviving in the ghetto during ww2 ; there is an outstanding performance by jordan kiziuk , and patrick bergin as his father is excellent . the story follows the boy as everything is taken from him - his home , his relatives - all he has to give him hope is his copy of robinson crusoe and his pet mouse . the film breaks your heart and inspires you at the same time : everyone should watch this movie .

life in a turkish old folks home is ostensibly the subject of shevaun mizrahi’s film , but that is only the entry point into this beautifully layered observational documentary . the residents spend their days taking elevator rides to nowhere , and remembering better , more interesting days . one elderly man recounts the parisian sex parties of his youth , while another talks about his glory days as a photographer . meanwhile , just outside the windows of the facility , progress gallops along , fed by the relentless pace and appetite for development .
what ' s more , in real life , orlev did agree to be hidden by a polish family and unlike the romanticised version of his story , he , in fact , was unable to escape detection by the germans and was sent to the bergen - belsen concentration camp . by good fortune , he was able to survive for two years until the us army liberated the train which was carrying him on from belsen to an unknown destination .

the film ' s message is that alex survives the war because he is good and loyal to this over - inflated father and his father is good to him . we should never forget that , in reality , those who survived this foul war did so because they were plain lucky and that the good died along with the evil . anyone who tells you otherwise is peddling fairy - tales for children or , worse still , for themselves .
he then chooses to wait in the midst of danger when he has the opportunity to escape to a safer place , all for his belief that his father has not , despite all signs to the contrary , been shot by the germans . i ' m all for sentimentality , but come on ! it ' s almost impossible to watch these scenes without feeling that alex is a living suspension of the rules of darwinian natural selection and that , in reality , anyone attempting to put such noble sensitivity into practice would quickly meet with a nasty end .
wonderful movie about family promises , survival and trust . it was hard to believe it was based on a true story considering what this young child had to do to survive during such a terrible time as wwii . . . . if you like anything about the war , you will like this one
, although a well - executed film in technical terms with a convincing performance from its twelve - year - old lead actor jordan kiziuk , stretches the bounds of credibility beyond their breaking point . my ire is particularly directed to one of the worst cinematic cliches : the depiction of a character who , in a life - threatening situation has more concern with saving their pet than their own skin .
