Batman & Dracula trilogy
The" Batman& Dracula" trilogy consists of three American graphic novels —" Batman& Dracula: Red Rain"( 1991)," Bloodstorm"( 1994), and" Crimson Mist"( 1998) —written by Doug Moench and penciled by Kelley Jones.
The books were published by DC Comics as a part of its" Elseworlds" line of comics.
Moench created the concept for the first installment and convinced Jones, of whom he was a fan, to join the project.
" Red Rain" s eventual popularity resulted in DC commissioning sequels.
Set outside the DC Universe canon, the trilogy begins with Batman discovering Count Dracula and his minions feeding off the homeless of Gotham City.
Batman becomes a vampire to gain the necessary strength to defeat Dracula, and does so by impaling him to a tree.
Despite trying to use his powers for the benefits of his vigilante and vampire- hunting activities, Batman finds himself unable to control his desire for human blood and brutally murders the Joker before forcing Alfred Pennyworth and Commissioner Gordon to stake him.
The stake is later removed by Alfred during a crime wave and Batman slaughters almost all of his old foes, after which survivors Two- Face and Killer Croc attempt to get rid of him once and for all.
The" Batman& Dracula" books were among the earliest and most popular titles of the" Elseworlds" line, with each listed on the Diamond Comic Distributors bestsellers list.
Journalists have praised the books for their story and artwork.
Since the trilogy's conclusion, several other DC comics have featured stories set within" Batman& Dracula" s world, and the vampire Batman has appeared in some non-comic book media.
N.U. (film)
N.U.( short for" Nettezza urbana", Italian municipal cleansing service) is a short 1948 documentary film directed by Michelangelo Antonioni.
The film examines a weekday morning of Italian janitors, captured at work on the streets of post -World War II Rome.
Although undoubtedly neorealistic in its style, this documentary does foreshadow some of Antonioni's own future trademarks, such as slow- moving camera that is enamoured with alienated and deserted urban landscapes and inanimate objects of architecture, nature, etc. and seemingly less than concerned with sweepers, washers and cleaners( almost indistinguishable from bums, and sometimes behaving much in the same way).
The film's narration consists of barely several phrases; musically soundtrack alternates classical- like piano improvisations with jazzy pieces.
In 1948" N.U." won Antonioni Nastro d' Argento Best Documentary award.
So did his" L'amorosa menzogna" next year.
Mr. Right (2009 film)
Mr. Right is a 2009 British film directed by David Morris and Jacqui Morris.
The jointly- made gay- themed film is the debut for both directors.
