  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • Dean Martin, La Voce Di “That’S Amore”
    Dean Martin, la voce di “That’s amore” Dean Martin, pseudonimo di Dino Paul Crocetti (Martin deriva da Martino, cognome della madre molisana), nasce a Steubenville, nello stato dell'Ohio, il 7 giugno 1917. Abbandonata la scuola a sedici anni, compie diversi lavori, compreso il pugile e il benzinaio, fino a quando, con il nome d'arte di Dean Martin, s'impone come cantante a New York. E' il 25 luglio 1946 quando Dean Martin si esibisce per la prima volta in coppia con Jerry Lewis al "Club 500" di Atlantic City. I due artisti danno vita ad un duo comico di successo, che dura per un decennio esatto, realizzando anche quindici film di successo, da "La mia amica Irma" di George Marshall (1949) a "Hollywood o morte!" (1956), passando per "Irma va a Hollywood", "Il sergente di legno", "Quel fenomeno di mio figlio" e "Attente ai marinai", tutti di Hal Walker, tra il 1950 e il 1951, quindi "Il caporale Sam", "Il cantante matto", "Occhio alla palla", "Più vivo che morto", "Il nipote picchiatello" e "Mezzogiorno di fifa", tutti di Norman Taurog, tra il 1952 e il 1955. Ancora: "Morti di paura" e "I figli del secolo" di George Marshall (1953-54), "Il circo a tre piste" di Joseph Pevney (1954), "Artisti e modelle" e "Hollywood o morte!" di Frank Tashlin (1955-56). La coppia è legata anche a programmi televisivi, come il varietà di successo "The Colgate Comedy Hour" (1950), di cui diventano anche conduttori. Il sodalizio artistico s'interrompe il 24 luglio 1956. La carriera di Martin, nonostante la rottura della coppia, continua a mietere successi.

  • John Woo's Face/Off : a Lesson in Moral Ambiguity
    Journal of American Studies of Turkey 6 (1997) : 77-78. Film Review John Woo’s Face/Off : A Lesson in Moral Ambiguity Michael Oppermann The history of quality film is closely linked to the concept of moral ambiguity. Except for a number of experimental films that question the cinematic means of expression or enlarge the canon of cinematic language, moral ambiguity has remained a landmark feature of narrative film. The term itself, though, as applied to the world of “moving images,” is multi-layered. It might refer to silent movies such asNosferatu (F.W. Murnau 1922) or The Phantom of the Opera (Rupert Julian 1925) in which Max Schreck and Lon Chaney respectively transform their supposedly horrible film characters into touching entities beyond an established binary opposition between good and evil. It might also refer to the bleak world of American or French film noir in which gangsters and cops alike are neither black nor white; they represent the same colour as Al Pacino in Harold Becker’s superb City Hall (1995), the colour of gray. Pacino’s part is also a fine example of another basic feature of moral ambiguity film; very often, famous actors are cast against their established role profiles. Other recent examples of such casting strategies include John Cusack as killer in Grosse Point Blank (George Armitage 1997), Robert De Niro as gangster in Heat (Michael Mann 1996) and Kris Kristofferson as corrupt sheriff in Lone Star (John Sayles 1996). The most outstanding moral ambiguity film of recent years, however, is John Woo’sFace/Off (1997), an action movie which redefines an entire genre.
