<P0-S0> Anna of Brooklyn is a 1958 comedy film by Italian directors Vittorio De Sica and. <P0-S1> It stars Gina Lollobrigida and Vittorio de Sica. <SEP> <P1-S0> Four of the films he directed won Academy Awards: "Sciuscià" and "Bicycle Thieves" (honorary), while "Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow" and "Il giardino dei Finzi Contini" won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. <P1-S1> Indeed, the great critical success of "Sciuscià" (the first foreign film to be so recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences) and "Bicycle Thieves" helped establish the permanent Best Foreign Film Award. <P1-S2> These two films are considered part of the canon of classic cinema. " <P1-S3> Bicycle Thieves" was cited by Turner Classic Movies as one of the 15 most influential films in cinema history. <P1-S4> De Sica was also nominated for the 1957 Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for playing Major Rinaldi in American director Charles Vidor's 1957 adaptation of Ernest Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms", a movie that was panned by critics and proved a box office flop. <P1-S5> De Sica's acting was considered the highlight of the film. <P1-S6> Vittorio De Sica (7 July 1901 – 13 November 1974) was an Italian director and actor, a leading figure in the neorealist movement. <SEP> <P2-S0> It is based on the story by Rudyard Kipling. <P2-S1> Without Benefit of Clergy is a 1921 American silent drama film directed by James Young and featuring Boris Karloff. <P2-S2> A print of the film still exists. <SEP> <P3-S0> Anna of Mecklenburg( 14 October 15334 July 1602), was a Duchess consort of Courland by marriage to the Duke of Courland, Gotthard Kettler. <P3-S1> She was the daughter of Albrecht VII, Duke of Mecklenburg and Anna of Brandenburg. <P3-S2> Anna is the first woman in Livonia whose life story is entirely historically confirmed. <SEP> <P4-S0> Before films Young had a successful career as a stage actor appearing on Broadway and throughout the country, and was the author of a notable 1905 book on theatrical makeup. <P4-S1> James Young (January 1, 1872 – June 9, 1948) was an American film director, actor and screenwriter of the silent era. <P4-S2> His first wife was librettist Rida Johnson Young who often composed with Victor Herbert. <P4-S3> Turning to silent films he directed 93 films between 1912 and 1928. <P4-S4> He also appeared as an actor in 62 films between 1909 and 1917. <P4-S5> He was born in Baltimore, Maryland and died in New York, New York. <P4-S6> His second wife was film actress Clara Kimball Young, 18 years his junior, who kept his surname after they divorced. <SEP> <P5-S0> Mary Aggie was an African- American slave known for taking part in a trial that resulted in a change in Virginia's statute law that allowed slaves to claim benefit of clergy. <P5-S1> In the late 1720s Aggie tried to sue for her freedom. <P5-S2> The attempt was unsuccessful, but managed to catch the attention of Lieutenant Governor William Gooch, who presided over the trial and believed that Aggie had made a good case of establishing her belief in Christianity. <P5-S3> This proved to be beneficial when, in September 1730, she was indicted for stealing goods valued at forty shillings from her owner, Annie or Anne Sullivan. <P5-S4> The value of the goods was enough to make it a felony, which was punishable by death during this time period, and Aggie was brought to trial in York County, Virginia. <P5-S5> Upon hearing of her predicament Gooch sent an attorney to monitor the trial. <P5-S6> Aggie again tried to plead for benefit of clergy, but was denied and Gooch appealed the decision. <P5-S7> The appeal was divided and the case was referred to England for a final ruling. <P5-S8> On May 6, 1731 Aggie was pardoned on the condition that she leave Virginia and on July 1, 1732 the Virginia General Assembly ruled that" any Negro, mulatto or Indian whatsoever" could claim benefit of clergy. <P5-S9> While this was a victory for Gooch, the new law was also restrictive since it limited the amount of instances where slaves, blacks, or Indians could use this plea. <P5-S10> The law also had other detrimental effects, as these people would now be unable to give testimony in court for any reason other than a slave being brought up for a capital offense and would also enable courts to use other forms of corporal punishment other than death.
