TIME 1947 to 1949 “No Entry” is a historically based fictional drama that takes place In a displaced persons camp in Germany after WWII. It focuses on a group of Polish Jewish refugees with nowhere to go trying to rebuild their lives, uncertain of what their futures hold. Lena, a camp committee official, whose hidden desires and tragic past are known to no one, are revealed when she meets Eva, an older German woman, with whom she begins a clandestine relationship. But their association becomes more and more jeopardous when anti-semitic feelings of both Germans and Americans begin to resurface Best friends Basia and Tola are starting fresh with new husbands and babies, both of them looking forward to a new life in Palestine. But for one of them, an unexpected discovery will forever alter her future. Beautiful Cesia, emotionally scarred from her experiences, keeps to herself and wants to live Germany as soon as possible. But when she finally opens her heart to a resident who swears he’ll protect her, he betrays her trust in him and leaves her with a frightening choice. ACT ONE SCENE ONE Early September, 1947. The middle of the afternoon. A converted Army barrack, one of many living quarters in the Bayerndorf Displaced Persons camp. BASIA runs in, her face flushed with excitement. BASIA Tola! Tola! She opens the door of the barracks. (Calling inside) Tola, are you there? There’s no answer. LENA enters, carrying a newspaper. Lena, have you seen Tola? LENA No. BASIA I have such wonderful news, and I wanted to tell her. LENA What is it? BASIA Myer asked me to marry him. Lena opens her arms and Basia rushes in for a hug. LENA I’m very happy for you, Lena. BASIA We went on a picnic by the river and he handed me a sandwich and told me he loved me and wanted to marry me. LENA That must have been some sandwich. 2. ELZBIETA comes out of the barracks. She walks with a noticeable limp, and sits on a nearby chair. ELZBIETA (to Basia) Your yelling woke me up from my nap! BASIA I’m sorry! Elzbieta lights a cigarette. LENA Basia is engaged. ELZBIETA So is half of the population of this place. Last week Rabbi Leszczynski married seventeen couples. BASIA After so much suffering and loss, can you blame them? ELZBIETA Even so, we won’t be here in this camp forever. When they get back to the outside world, they may regret it. BASIA I won’t regret it. I love Myer. LENA I know you do. TOLA enters, and spots Basia. TOLA Basia! She runs up to her. BASIA I have to tell you something. 3. TOLA Me, too! I’m getting married! BASIA What? TOLA Itzhak just asked me and I said yes. Tola hugs Basia, who’s stunned. Isn’t that wonderful? I’m so happy! BASIA Tola... Tola looks at her. Myer just proposed to me... TOLA No! BASIA I’m engaged, too! They hold hands and jump up and down, squealing with delight. Oh, Lena, Elzbieta, can you believe it? LENA It’s a happy coincidence. ELZBIETA Will wonders never cease. TOLA Let’s go tell everyone we know. BASIA Yes, let’s! Bye! TOLA See you later! They run off, hand in hand, as CESIA enters. Her mood is much more subdued. 4. ELZBIETA You just missed the big news, Cesia. Basia and Tola are engaged. CESIA That’s nice. I’m happy for them. Hello, Lena. LENA Hello. You look tired. CESIA I am. Very. I haven’t been sleeping well for days now. The new pills the doctor gave me aren’t working. LENA I’m sorry. CESIA Anyway, I wanted to tell you that I finally received a small shipment of nail polish in today. It goes so fast when I do, that I put some aside for you. If you could come for a manicure tomorrow morning? LENA That’s really thoughtful of you, Cesia. How’s ten o’clock? CESIA That would be fine. I’m going to go to my room now and see if I can get in a nap before dinner. Cesia walks into her barracks. When she’s out of earshot... ELZBIETA Now, there’s one who isn’t going to get married so fast. LENA No. Cesia has a long way to go before then. Elzbieta light up another cigarette. You smoke too much. ELZBIETA I know. But it tastes like freedom. 5. SCENE 2 That night. The camp dining hall. Cesia is eating dinner at a table with two DP RESIDENTS a few chairs down, talking to each other. KARL enters, carrying his food tray, looking for somewhere to sit. KARL (to Cesia) May I sit here? Cesia nods. Karl sits, and begins to eat. Cesia ignores him. Karl tries to make conversation. You know, this soup isn’t half bad. The food where I was you wouldn’t give to a pig. Not that I wasn’t grateful, mind you. But this is a definite improvement. Cesia continues to eat in silence. Karl extends his hand. My name’s Karl. I just moved here from the Finkenschlag camp. Cesia shakes his hand weakly. CESIA Cesia. KARL How long have you been here, Cesia? CESIA About nine months. KARL I hear they have several schools here, including a Yeshiva. And a vocational center. And two synagogues. CESIA Three. There are three synagogues. KARL Which one do you prefer? CESIA I don’t go to services. Not right now. 6. KARL Well, I’ve never been that big on services myself. My family was quite reform. I’m originally from Frankfurt. Where are you from, originally? CESIA A small town outside Warsaw. KARL I’ve never been. Cesia nods. CESIA Though it’s not my home anymore. KARL I understand. They eat in silence for a bit. Maybe you could take me around the camp after dinner. Show me where everything is. CESIA No, I can’t. I’m very tired and going to bed early. KARL Perhaps another time, then. They are joined by BRUNO, who takes a seat on the other side of Cesia. BRUNO How’s the soup tonight, Cesia? CESIA It’s okay. Bruno grabs a chunk of bread from the plate in front of them, and dips it in the soup. BRUNO Well, I’ve spent all day on the Moehlstrasse and I could eat a horse, but it wouldn’t be kosher. 7. He laughs at his own remark, then reaches out to shake Karl’s hand. I’m Bruno. KARL Karl! Nice to meet you. BRUNO Karl, huh? You a yekke? KARL I am. BRUNO How does it feel being around all these lowly Polish jews? KARL I don’t mind. BRUNO If you don’t mind then... (to Cesia) So Cesia - what’s the difference between a virgin and a yekke? CESIA What? BRUNO A yekke will always be a yekke. He laughs loudly to himself again. Cesia gets up to leave. CESIA Good-night. BRUNO Hey, you’ll give me that manicure soon like you promised. CESIA Whenever you like. KARL Nice to have met you, Cesia. 8. Cesia gives him a faint smile and leaves. Karl watches her go. BRUNO Listen, you ever need anything on the Black Market, you come see me. I know all the dealers, and I’ll make sure you won’t get ripped off. KARL Thank you. I might take you up on that. BRUNO Anytime you like. For a small referral fee, of course. KARL Of course. 9. SCENE 3 A few days later. Camp committee office. Lena is looking over a document at her desk. There are two other COMMITTEE MEMBERS at work as well. Lena has REBBE FRENKEL, a Chasid with a long beard, at her desk. LENA So I have news for you, Rebbe. We were finally able to locate your sister, Sonia. She’s in a sanitarium in the South of Italy recovering from tuberculosis. REBBE (gasps) Praise God! Praise God! He begins to weep. LENA (handing him the document) Here is where to write to her. REBBE (through tears) Yes, yes! It’s a miracle! My dear Sonia is alive! Lena pours him a glass of water. LENA Here, have some water! He takes a sip. Now, I’m sorry, but I have to go post this other list of survivors I have.

    EVERLYPEDIA (formerly The Everly Brothers Index – TEBI) Coordinated by Robin Dunn & Chrissie van Varik EVERLYPEDIA PART 2 E to J Contact us re any omissions, corrections, amendments and/or additional information at: [email protected] E______________________________________________ EARL MAY SEED COMPANY - see: MAY SEED COMPANY, EARL and also KMA EASTWOOD, CLINT – Born 31st May 1930. There is a huge quantity of information about Clint Eastwood his life and career on numerous websites, books etc. We focus mainly on his connection to The Everly Brothers and in particular to Phil Everly plus brief overview of his career. American film actor, director, producer, composer and politician. Eastwood first came to prominence as a supporting cast member in the TV series Rawhide (1959–1965). He rose to fame for playing the Man with No Name in Sergio Leone’s Dollars trilogy of spaghetti westerns (A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly) during the 1960s, and as San Francisco Police Department Inspector Harry Callahan in the Dirty Harry films (Dirty Harry, Magnum Force, The Enforcer, Sudden Impact and The Dead Pool) during the 1970s and 1980s. These roles, along with several others in which he plays tough-talking no-nonsense police officers, have made him an enduring cultural icon of masculinity. Eastwood won Academy Awards for Best Director and Producer of the Best Picture, as well as receiving nominations for Best Actor, for his work in the films Unforgiven (1992) and Million Dollar Baby (2004). These films in particular, as well as others including Play Misty for Me (1971), The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976), Pale Rider (1985), In the Line of Fire (1993), The Bridges of Madison County (1995) and Gran Torino (2008), have all received commercial success and critical acclaim.

  • Custer's Last Stand Program Transcript
    Page 1 Custer's Last Stand Program Transcript Narrator: The news flashed across telegraph wires on July 6th, 1876. George Armstrong Custer and 261 members of his 7th Cavalry had been massacred by Cheyenne and Lakota warriors, near a river called the Little Bighorn, in Montana Territory. There were no survivors. Nathaniel Philbrick, Author, The Last Stand: This was a thunderbolt. The West was won, how could this happen? It's like the sinking of the unsinkable Titanic, you know, it just doesn't compute. Narrator: All across the nation -- in big cities and small towns, word of Custer's death was greeted with stunned disbelief. Richard Slotkin, Historian: It's shocking; it's astonishing. It's not the way the script was written. It was not supposed to end that way. Narrator: In Philadelphia, at the Centennial International Exhibition, an exuberant celebration of America's 100th birthday, was in full swing. As they marked their first century, Americans were in an expansive and optimistic mood. The nation had survived the Civil War, built a railroad across the continent, and was settling the vast spaces of the interior. Richard Slotkin, Historian: It's two days after the happy birthday of America. A century of incredible progress and achievement has just been celebrated. And then comes news that Custer, this representative of the victorious military of the Civil War, of railroad building, of pushing back the frontier has been wiped out by a bunch of savages. Nathaniel Philbrick, Author, The Last Stand: He embodied so much of America. And, and not just our good impulses, but very many of our worst impulses.

In this entire opening scene, we only see DEZ, TONI, and DAZZY through a medium POV of the web cam that is mounted on the top of his computer. POV SHOT (low-rez distressed image) FROM A MINI DV CAMERA MOUNTED ON TOP OF THE COMPUTER. SHE REACHES FOR IT AND ADJUSTS. A SERIES OF STATIC, OUT OF FOCUS SURGES OCCUR, THEN WE GET A CLEAR PICTURE. TONI (CONT'D) I’m still burnin’ this CD. (she adjusts it into place) There we go... We finally see TONI HARLAND (30s), seated at her computer workstation (two PCs). Sassy, cute, conservative, but still a little on the dark side. She's trying to keep an eye on the progress of the CD-ROM she's burning, but the VIDEO CONFERENCE she's immersed in is providing plenty of distraction. TONI (CONT'D) -- Don't bullshit me, Dez... INTERCUT TONI AND DEZ 2 INT. DEZ'S APARTMENT - SAME 2 The unshaven face of DEZ DRAVEN (20s). A few twigs of black hair dangle like greasy spider legs in front of his sharp, dark eyes.

  • The Real Inspector Hound.Pdf
    2786 / TOM STOPPARD characters, Stoppard celebrates the gaiety and perverse vitality that can be generated from despair. Stoppard frequently uses plays by other playwrights as launching pads for his own: Roscncrantz and Guildenstern step out of the shadows of Shakespeare's Hamlet, and the plot of Stoppard's Travesties (1974) is entwined with that of Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest. Past and present are again entwined, though not inter- textually, in his masterpiece, Arcadia (I993), which explores the nature of Nature, Classical and Romantic theories of landscape gardening, literary history and histori- ans, truth and time, and the disruptive influence of sex on human orbits-"the attrac- tion which Newton left out." Stoppard's most recent plays have been Indian Ink (I993) and The Invention of Love (I997), which brings together in one galaxy A. E. Housman, Moses Jackson, Oscar Wilde, and a sparkling constellation of High Vic- torian worthies. In a different but no less witty mode, The Real Inspector Hound (1968) parodies the classic country-house murder-mystery play. Stoppard's hilarious spoof parallels Agatha Christie's play The Mousetrap. An extra theatrical dimension is added by the subplot satirizing the pomposities of theater critics. When the lives of Birdboot and Moon become entangled with those of the characters in the play they are supposedly reviewing, we are treated to a brilliant demonstration of one of Stoppard's recurrent themes, the indistinct frontier between Life and Art.He has said: I write plays because writing dialogue is the only respectable way of contradicting yourself. I'm the kind of person who embarks on an endless leapfrog down the great moral issues.I put a position, rebut it, refute the rebuttal, and rebut the refutation.

  • We Hereby Recommend That the Thesis of Trevor Dawson Entitled I Feel
    We hereby recommend that the thesis of Trevor Dawson entitled I Feel Gone be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts. __________________________________________ Director, Sarah Shotland, MFA __________________________________________ Reader, Ben Gwin, MFA ___________________________________________ Reader, Sheila Squillante, MFA I FEEL GONE A Thesis in Fiction Writing By Trevor Dawson Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Fine Arts Chatham University April 2019 ii Special Thanks There are so many people responsible for the existence of this manuscript that sometimes I don’t even think I wrote it myself. We’ll start with my wonderful thesis board. Ben — you’re the writer I want to be when I grow up. Sheila — I have rarely met anyone with your compassion and warmth. Sarah — where to start? Without exaggeration, I can say that this manuscript literally would not exist if you weren’t my director. You talked me down from so many ledges, and in the end helped me produce something I’m actually proud of. To all three of you, I want to say how inadequate the words “thank you” are in print, but I’ll still say: thank you. There are a few other professors I need to mention: Marc Nieson, Dr. Sheryl St. Germain, Teague Bohlen, Drew Bixby, Dr. Nicky Beer, Dr. Joanna Luloff. It was an honor to work with all of you. Marc, thanks in particular for making us write so many hundred-word stories. “The Lord of Dragon Island” is one of my favorites. Amanda Berney — somehow, during all this, you kept me sane.
