Biography Birthplace Antoni Gaudí was born in the province of Tarragona in southern Catalonia on 25 June 1852. While there is some dispute as to his birthplace – official documents state that he was born in the town of Reus, whereas others claim he was born in Riudoms, a small village 3 miles (5 km) from Reus,7 – it is certain that he was baptized in Reus a day after his birth.

    Starring David Suchet to Tour Perth & Brisbane in 2014

    MEDIA RELEASE: TUESDAY 26TH NOVEMBER 2013 ‘THE LAST CONFESSION’ STARRING DAVID SUCHET TO TOUR PERTH & BRISBANE IN 2014 Internationally acclaimed British actor David Suchet will reprise his role on stage in the conspiracy thriller, ‘THE LAST CONFESSION’, in Australia in 2014. The international production will play in Toronto and Los Angeles before arriving in Australia for seasons at Perth’s His Majesty’s Theatre and in Brisbane at QPAC’s Lyric Theatre. Making his Australian stage debut, David Suchet is an Olivier and Emmy Award winner and BAFTA and Tony Award nominee. He is best known for playing Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot having starred in all 74 television movies over 25 years. This is an iconic role that has taken him into the lounge room of millions around the world. Further to his role in Agatha Christie’s renowned series, Suchet has enjoyed an extensive theatre career and starred in numerous films and television series around the world. In ‘THE LAST CONFESSION’ he will play the role of Cardinal Giovanni Benelli. Tony Award winner Brian Bedford, most recently acclaimed for his direction and performance as Lady Bracknell in ‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ on Broadway, will star as Pope John Paul I. Sure to ignite controversial debate, ‘THE LAST CONFESSION’ is set within the corridors of power in the Vatican and explores the circumstances surrounding the sudden death of Pope John Paul I in 1978. He died only 33 days after being elected and before he could set his liberal reforms into place. Suspicions are aroused when it is revealed that the new Pope had warned three of his most influential but hostile Cardinals that they would be replaced on the evening before his death.
  • San Francisco Silent Film Festival

    San Francisco Silent Film Festival

    True art transcends time. SAN FRANCISCO SILENT FILM FESTIVAL JULY 18–21, 2013 CASTRO THEATRE SAN FRANCISCO SILENT FILM FESTIVAL elcome to our 18th summer festival. The San Francisco Silent Film Festival is a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating the public about silent film as an art form and as a cul- turally valuable historical record. Throughout the year, SFSFF produces events that showcase important titles from the silent era, often in restored or preserved prints, with live musical accompaniment by someW of the world’s finest practitioners of the art of putting music to film. Each presentation exemplifies the extraordinary quality that Academy Award-winning film historian Kevin Brownlow calls “live cinema.” Silent-era filmmakers produced masterpieces that can seem breathtakingly modern. In a remarkably short time after the birth of movies, filmmakers developed all the techniques that made cinema its own art form. The only technique that eluded them was the ability to marry sound to the film print, but these films were never meant to be viewed in silence and it is often obvious that music was a part of the production as well as the exhibition. The absence of recording on the set, though, meant that the camera was free to move with a grace and ele- gance that allowed visual storytell- ing to flourish and made film more than just an adjunct to the stage. It is through these films that the world first came to love movies and learned how to appreciate them as art.
