Disconcerting as it may be, all ill feelings are forgotten when I watch an auditorium of eighteen- to twenty-one-year-olds transported by the emotions, the humor, and the compulsions of his cinema.

  • Winter Olympics Code Breaker
    Winter Olympics Code Breaker Amazing Winter Olympic Stories • In the 1988 Winter Olympics, Jamaica entered its first team in the bobsleigh, which was amazing as they had to practise without snow in Jamaica! It was such a great story that it inspired the 1993 film ‘Cool Runnings’. • From 1929 until 1988, Team GB had no ski jumpers; that was until Eddie ‘The Eagle’ Edwards came along in the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Canada. He came last but was a British ski jump record holder, going on to become a TV personality and stunt skier. In 2016, the film ‘Eddie the Eagle’ was released telling his story. • Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are two of Team GB’s most famous Winter Olympic stars, having won the gold medal in 1984 with their ‘Bolero’ ice dance. They were world champions three times, British Champions seven times and both have MBEs. They now underpin the TV show ‘Dancing on Ice’.

    Triple 9 (2016). Directed by John Hillcoat [film]. USA. Worldview Entertainment and Anonymous Content. Atlanta, Georgia. Word count: 1491 Reviewed by Susanna Menis, School of Law, Birkbeck, University of London, Malet Street, London WC1E 7HX, [email protected] Abstract: This film review addresses the social perception of crime as represented in this crime film. Although a ‘popcorn movie’, it exemplifies a number of socio-criminological concerns. The review critically considers the role of the heroes and the nature of the outlaws within a context of police corruption. The review argues that not only does the film reflect stereotypical understandings of certain social groups, but its complete elimination of all the ‘bad’ characters reveals the ease with which our society is prepared to dispose of certain individuals. Key words: crime films, heroes, organised crime, police corruption, marginalised social groups 1 Triple 9 (2016). Directed by John Hillcoat [film]. USA. Worldview Entertainment and Anonymous Content. Triple 9 is an expression which stands for ‘an officer down’, implying that a police officer has been shot and therefore all police units need to attend the scene. This does not reveal, however, that the film is really about police corruption. In Atlanta, Georgia, a crew of five gang men – including two police officers – are collaborating with the Russian Mafia to retrieve files which will allow the early release from prison of the Russian Mafia boss. This is done through a heist in which a police officer is shot on the other side of town, allowing the rest of the crew to complete the robbery while all police units attend the 999 call.

  • The Road to Emmy.Pages
    The Road To Emmy, Part 6: Feedback From Directors and Cinematographers Director Jarrold Earns Nomination For The Girl; LOS ANGELES, September 06, 2013, Robert Goldrich --- This is a tale of two first-time primetime Emmy Award nominees: director Julian Jarrold, and DP John Pardue both nominated for The Girl, an HBO telefilm. The Girl depicts the obsession of director Alfred Hitchcock (portrayed by Toby Jones) with actress Tippi Hedren (played by Sienna Miller). When his romantic overtures are rebuffed by Hedren, Hitchcock turns abusive and sadistic towards her during their collaborations on the movies The Birds and Marnie. The Girl earned a total of six Emmy nominations: Jarrold for Outstanding Directing for a Miniseries, Movie or a Dramatic Special; Jones for Lead Actor in a Miniseries or Movie; Imelda Staunton (as Alma Hitchcock) for Supporting Actress; John Pardue for Cinematography; Philip Miller for Music Composition; and Diana Cilliers and Melissa Moritz for Costumes. (DP Pardue is profiled in ‘The Road To Emmy’, Part 6.) Jarrold said being an Emmy nominee is "incredibly exciting. We made a small film that's received fantastic exposure and response." Among the biggest challenges posed by The Girl, reflected Jarrold, were physically suspending disbelief for Jones' portrayal of Hitchcock and recreating the attack sequence in The Birds. On the former front, Jarrold described Jones as "a wonderful comedian and actor who transformed himself into Hitchcock. Toby spent a lot of time in makeup every morning. We didn't want a wax look, he had to be real and lifelike in character. Toby perfected the voice.
