Taboo: Why are Real-Life British Serial Killers Rarely Represented on Film? Antony Robert Earnshaw Sheffield Hallam University MA English by Research September 2017 1 Abstract This thesis assesses changing British attitudes to the dramatisation of crimes committed by domestic serial killers and highlights the dearth of films made in this country on this subject. It discusses the notion of taboos and, using empirical and historical research, illustrates how filmmakers’ attempts to initiate productions have been vetoed by social, cultural and political sensitivities. Comparisons are drawn between the prevalence of such product in the United States and its uncommonness in Britain, emphasising the issues around the importing of similar foreign material for exhibition on British cinema screens and the importance of geographic distance to notions of appropriateness. The influence of the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is evaluated. This includes a focus on how a central BBFC policy – the so- called 30-year rule of refusing to classify dramatisations of ‘recent’ cases of factual crime – was scrapped and replaced with a case-by-case consideration that allowed for the accommodation of a specific film championing a message of tolerance. -

80S Movie Trivia Questions and Answers
80s Movie Trivia Questions From: conversationstartersworld.com/80s-movie-trivia 1. Which 80s movie was the highest grossing film of the decade? E.T. The Extraterrestrial The 1982 movie surpassed Star Wars to become the highest grossing film of all time. The movie held that record for 11 years until it was surpassed by Jurassic Park in 1993. 2. Which 80s movie was Alan Rickman’s first feature film role? Die Hard The 1988 film grossed over $140 million worldwide and turned Bruce Willis into an action star. Before then he had been known only as a comedy actor. Willis filmed the comedy television series Moonlighting at the same time as Die Hard. Beethoven’s Ode to Joy is the terrorist’s theme song in the movie, and Rickman can be seen humming the song during his elevator scene with Mr. Takagi. 3. Which 80s movie spawned 6 sequels and a T.V. series? Police Academy The comedy film grossed $146 million worldwide and became the sixth highest grossing film of 1984. The film was inspired by real life police cadets. During the filming of The Right Stuff Paul Maslansky witnessed a diverse group of police cadets ineffectively doing crowd control for the filming. He found the situation humorous, and that night he wrote up two pages to give to the Ladd Company. They loved the concept and agreed to develop the movie. 4. Which 80’s movie was the first to become a hit largely due to MTV? Flashdance The 1983 film had a decent opening weekend but the soundtrack was what catapulted the film to success. -

20Th Century Masters Press Release
1 SMOOTH FUNK SHINES BRIGHT ON THE BEST OF ATLANTIC STARR Atlantic Starr had the smooth funk thang down. One of funk-soul’s stellar acts, Atlantic Starr claimed Top 20 R&B hits in the ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s, and is still heard today at the funkiest gatherings. A cool dozen of those Top 20 hits, from 1978’s “Stand Up” to 1987’s #1 R&B/#1 pop “Always,” each digitally remastered, have now been brought together on The Best Of Atlantic Starr edition of 20th Century Masters/The Millennium Collection (A&M/UME), released July 17, 2001. Formed in upstate New York in 1976 by the brothers Lewis (guitarist-vocalist David, trombonist Jonathan and keyboardist-vocalist Wayne), Atlantic Starr soon headed west to Los Angeles. With singer Sharon Bryant, a surprisingly rare female lead vocalist for a funk band, Atlantic Starr hit the ground running after signing to A&M. It was Wayne, however, who sang lead on the group’s first R&B Top 20, the showtime anthem “Stand Up” from its self-titled 1978 debut album. From 1980’s Radiant, its third album, Bryant’s dusky-to-gutsy lead on the cautionary “When Love Calls” sent the song to #5 R&B while Wayne sang lead for the Top 20 R&B “Send For Me.” With Bryant up front, the sunny “Circles” (#2 R&B, Top 40 pop) and come hither “Love Me Down” (Top 20 R&B) rocketed 1982’s Brilliance to #1 Soul for three weeks. Bryant also led the coy, teasing “Touch A Four Leaf Clover” (#4 R&B) and joined Wayne for the love duet “More, More, More” (#11 R&B), both from 1983’s Yours Forever.
