# Colin Bennett (film critic)

John Colin Monash Bennett (1929 – 23 February 2022) was an Australian film critic, best known for his long tenure at The Age newspaper. He was a critic at The Age from 1955 until 1980 and was thus very influential in cinema culture of Melbourne. Bennett played a key role in the Melbourne International Film Festival and Australian Film Institute.

## Biography

Bennett started his career as a cadet at The Age. He worked for a number of years in England where he began reviewing films. When Bennett returned to Australia he resumed work at The Age and became its film critic. After leaving The Age Bennett set up a riding school with his wife.

## Australian films

Bennett was highly critical of Australian films throughout his career. He called Dust in the Sun "barely competent technically and dreadfully leaden in its pace" and said "as the only feature film Australia can show in years, it will not do."
Bennett took part in a famous feud with Tim Burstall where he criticised Burstall's debut feature Two Thousand Weeks. Fellow critic David Stratton wrote Bennett's "attitude was unbearably righteous and helped create a climate in which a good film could be destroyed."
Bennett wrote that Wake in Fright was "the strongest and most savage comment on Australia ever put in film" but felt it "had no finesse, few nuancies or subtleties."
Bennett called the film Don's Party "very funny" but felt "there was nothing very much at its centre" in which the characters "emerge largely as types." He admired the "professionalism" of The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith but qualified, "one is still left questioning this particular story's relevance today, apart from the spreading of guilt and self loathing amongst its white audiences."

## Appraisal

Fellow critic David Stratton called Bennett "inflexible in his standards and makes few allowances for the specific problems of Australian film making". Anthony Ginnane called him "very much a proponent of the Sight and Sound school of English criticism which pre-dated Movie and the auteur theory". David Williamson wrote that Bennett "dislikes intensely anything vulgar, escapist, ocker or entertaining, and wishes he hadn’t been born in Australia, hoping that we'll all transform ourselves as rapidly as possible into small-'l' liberals like himself so that he can cease being ashamed of his origins... There is such a strong correlation between a good Colin Bennett crit and disaster at the box-office that certain Australian film producers get very nervous if he views their product favourably."
# George Cockerill (journalist)

George Cockerill (1871 – 3 June 1943) was an Australian journalist and writer. He was born in Bendigo, Victoria, and worked all his life as a journalist, starting on The Bendigo Independent then as Chief of Staff for the Ballarat Star before moving to the Melbourne Age where he covered the Federation campaign 1898–1901, and Federal Parliament 1901–10. He was their chief of staff and chief leader-writer 1914–26, in which position he was reckoned as one of Australia's most influential writers on fiscal policy, particularly in his support for protectionism.
He was editor of the Sydney Daily Telegraph from 1926-28.
From 1929–39, when he retired because of ill health, he was chief of publicity for the Commonwealth Development and Migration Commission and also leader writer for the Melbourne Herald. He died at Mercy Hospital, Melbourne.
He was president of the Melbourne Press Club from 1909.

## Private life

# Como–Brunate funicular

The Como–Brunate funicular (Italian: Funicolare Como-Brunate) is a funicular railway that connects the city of Como with the village of Brunate in Lombardy, Italy. The line has operated since 1894, and is used by both tourists and local residents.

## History

The funicular was opened in 1894 and was originally operated using a steam engine. In 1911 the traction system was converted to use an electric motor. The line was refurbished in 1934/5 and again in 1951, when new cars were provided.
In 1981 ownership of the funicular was transferred from the private Società Anonima Funicolare Como/Brunate to the government of the region of Lombardy. In 2005 the management of the funicular, along with Como's local bus service, was transferred to a local company, the Consorzio Mobilità Funicolare & Bus. The Consorzio further subcontracts the operation of the funicular to the Azienda Trasporti Milanesi S.p.A..
In mid-August 2011, the funicular reopened after an overhaul costing €800,000. New cars were constructed for the line by Gangloff at a cost of €1 million each. The new cars are air-conditioned, 12 metres (39 ft 4 in) long and 2.1 metres (6 ft 11 in) wide, and carry 81 passengers. The cars are painted in contrasting colours, one being lilac and the other red.

## Route

The lower station is situated adjacent to the Lake Como quayside to the north-east of Como city centre. It is some 400 metres (1,312 ft) north of the Como Lago railway station served by Trenord train services to Milan and 1.4 kilometres (0.87 mi) east of the Como San Giovanni railway station on the main Zurich to Milan railway.
The line is 1,084 metres (3,556 ft) long, of which the lower 130 metres (427 ft) are in tunnel. The remainder of the line is at or above ground level, with extensive views over the lake and city. There are two intermediate stops, served on request.
The upper station is situated in the centre of Brunate, with entrances and exits at both upper and lower levels. At the upper level, a piazza separates the station from the machine room, which has a gallery allowing public viewing of the haulage machinery. The surrounding area has vistas over Como and the lake, and is the starting point of many trails into the surrounding hills.

The line has the following parameters:
| Number of cars | 2 |
| Number of stops | 4 (2 terminal, 2 intermediate) |

## Reception
### Critical response

The show has received mixed reviews.
John Doyle of The Globe and Mail, wrote that the show is "startlingly original and it has a plain but profound theme – everybody's weird, so let's just make peace with that and see life and the world as one long, amiable comedy." Doyle had a warm reaction to the show and its co-creator, Mike Clattenburg, best known for Trailer Park Boys, saying "It is nobody's idea of a family sitcom and the better for that. Trailer Park Boys was nobody's idea of a comedy at first."
Norman Wilner of Now was more critical of the series, calling the first three episodes not remotely funny.

The line will likely begin at the existing Nairobi railway station along an existing line to and a 2 km extension to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
There are number of stations and stops along the current rail route to Embakasi:
* Makadara railway station - existing station
* Donholm rail stop - minor stop
* Stage MPYA rail stop - minor stop

# Stone House (Bridgton, Maine)

The Stone House is an historic house located on Burnham Road in Bridgton, Maine, United States. Built 1828–1830, it is a rare example in Maine of a Cape style house built out of stone in the English masonry style. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.

## Description and history

The Stone House stands in a rural part of southern Bridgton, on the north side of Burnham Road, a short way west of its junction with Willis Park Road. The house is built on a sloping lot, and presents a single story to the south and two stories to the north. It is built out of slabs of granite hand-quarried from a local quarry, with a timber-frame half story. It has a gabled roof and a central brick chimney, and modern ells extend the building to the west. Its main facade is five bays wide, with a center entrance framed by sidelight windows.
The house was built in 1828-30 by John Mead, Sr., an Englishman who settled here in the early 1800s. In 1828, his house was destroyed by a freak windstorm, and he decided to build a house that was capable of withstanding such events. It is the only house known in western Maine that uses English masonry methods. Mead was also one of a small number of farmers in Maine who engaged in planting mulberry trees for the purpose of cultivating silk worms.
# Stone House (Taunton, Massachusetts)

The Stone House is an historic house at 15-17 Plain Street in Taunton, Massachusetts. Built in 1847, this 2+1⁄2-story stone structure is one of only two stone houses built in Taunton in the 19th century. Its walls are fashioned out of coursed granite, and it has a single-story porch across its front facade, supported by stone piers. It was operated as a hostelry for seamen in the employ of some of Taunton's shipping magnates.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
# Stone Plantation

The Stone Plantation, also known as the Young Plantation and the Barton Warren Stone House, is a historic Greek Revival-style plantation house and one surviving outbuilding along the Old Selma Road on the outskirts of Montgomery, Alabama. It had been the site of a plantation complex, and prior to the American Civil War it was known for cotton production worked by enslaved people.
It was added to the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage on September 28, 2000; and listed as one of the National Register of Historic Places for architecture on December 31, 2001.

## Early history and the Stone family

The Stone Plantation was built by Barton Warren Stone (March 24, 1800–January 14, 1884), the son of Warren Henley Stone of Poynton Manor in Charles County, Maryland and Martha Bedell of Alamance County, North Carolina. His parents established a plantation, "Magnolia Crest", in Lowndes County in the 1830s, and it still survives a few miles west of this plantation. Barton Stone's plantation house, known to his family simply as the "Home Place," was one of three plantation houses that he owned. His other two houses were "Duck Pond" and "Prairie Place."
By 1860, Stone owned 83 enslaved people, and 5,000 acres (2,000 ha) in Montgomery County, with an additional 2,000 acres (810 ha) in Autauga County. The Stone Plantation was known for cotton production, and contained one cotton gin. Barton Warren Stone died in 1884, he was survived two wives and all but one of his sons.
The property was acquired by L.C. Young in 1901, and then by Jesse D. Baggett in 1933.

## Architecture

The two-story brick masonry house, fronted by a monumental Doric hexastyle portico, was built circa 1852, for Barton Warren Stone. It was built in a Neoclassical Greek Revival style, with some influence by Italianate style. The grounds of the property included a fruit orchard, and mature camellias and azaleas. It retains the exterior smoke house.
# Baek Minseok

Baek Minseok (Korean: 백민석) is a modern South Korean writer.

## Life

Baek Minseok was born in 1971, in Seoul. In 2004, Baek suspended all writing activities.

## Work

Baek Minseok wrote his first work of fiction in 1995 with "I Loved Candy" (내가 사랑한 캔디). Characterized by gory and graphic images, Baek's work often makes direct reference to the bizarre - such as in the case of his representative novel Cotton Field Bizarre Story - and his work has been classified as bizarre fiction.
Boys are often the main characters in Baek's work, such as in the stories "The Errand Boy at the Manor" and "Poor Boy Hans". Even the psychologies of his adult characters are closer to that of children. For example, the main character of "Farm for Dead Owls" is a 30-year-old man-child who only talks to dolls. In these works, characters seek growth and development but the final outcome is far from what is regarded as healthy maturity. Through these characters who go against the tide, Baek criticizes the power of influence and questions what we consider to be the “norm.”
Ghosts also make regular appearances in the collection The Errand Boy at the Manor, but they are not the kind that appear in fairy tales and fantasy; they, in fact, represent our everyday reality and here lies the true terror—to become an adult means to become a member of a depraved society; therefore, the everyday reality that adults dominate is in itself terrifying. In Cotton Field Bizarre Story, this quotidian terror manifests itself in kidnappings, murders, violence, perverse sexual acts, and sadomasochistic practices. In Rusher, the same terror is expressed in surreal descriptions about a dystopian society. Through these works, Baek seems to be suggesting that the real world is nothing more than perhaps a somewhat exaggerated fictional space that disregards ethics, morals, and common sense.
