Snelling Wins Best of Staffing Client Award – Snelling Snelling Corporate Office https://www.snelling.com Snelling Wins Best of Staffing Client Award - 2017 ...but that is not all Categories : EMPLOYER HOT TOPICS Date : February 16, 2017 Do you know what Katherine Hepburn, Jack Nicholson, Ingrid Bergman, Daniel Day Lewis, Walter Brennan, Meryl Streep and Snelling all have in common? Well, obviously the first 6 people listed are movie actors. However, they are not just actors. They are part of an elite group of actors. These 6 people are – in fact – the greatest Academy Award winners of all time. Hepburn leads the pack with 4 Oscar wins; Nicholson, Bergman, Day Lewis, Brennan and Streep have all won 3 times. But no matter how you cut it, all 6 are in a class of their own. But even as we prepare to watch the Academy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 26, to see if Casey Affleck beats Andrew Garfield or if Meryl Streep beats Emma Stone (and joins Ms. Hepburn in the 4x winner club), be aware that none of these actors have achieved what Snelling has. You see, actors have the Oscars; musicians have the Grammy’s; writers have the Pulitzer. Staffing firms have the Best of Staffing award – handed out to those elite staffing firms who have received “remarkable” reviews from the clients they serve. Best of Staffing Here at Snelling, we are honored to announce that we are (again) the winner of Inavero’s Best of 1 / 2 Snelling Snelling Corporate Office https://www.snelling.com Staffing® Client Awards for 2017. But the news gets better, for Snelling has achieved what none of the actors above have. We have won this award 5 times in a row, making us a Best of Staffing Diamond Award winner. Like Oscar winners, we are in elite company. We made it to the stage by providing superior service to our clients year in and year out. Client satisfaction in the staffing industry hovers around 4%. Client satisfaction based on Best of Staffing winners (for 2017) averages 68%. So our clients like us; they really really like us! And we feel the same way about them. But we do not plan to rest on our laurels; we plan to do bigger and better things in the future, so we want your continued feedback. If you have an idea for something we can do better, just let us know . We would love hear from you! For more information on our win, click here 2 / 2 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

  • Casablanca by Jay Carr the a List: the National Society of Film Critics’ 100 Essential Films, 2002
    Casablanca By Jay Carr The A List: The National Society of Film Critics’ 100 Essential Films, 2002 It’s still the same old story. Maybe more so. “Casablanca” was never a great film, never a profound film. It’s merely the most beloved movie of all time. In its fifty-year history, it has resisted the transmogrifica- tion of its rich, reverberant icons into camp. It’s not about the demimondaines washing through Rick’s Café Americain – at the edge of the world, at the edge of hope – in 1941. Ultimately, it’s not even about Bogey and Ingrid Bergman sacrificing love for nobility. It’s about the hold movies have on us. That’s what makes it so powerful, so enduring. It is film’s analogue to Noel Coward’s famous line about the amazing potency of cheap music. Like few films before or since, it sums up Hollywood’s genius for recasting archetypes in big, bold, universally accessible strokes, for turning myth into pop culture.

Looking By Donald Dewey ER G This is where Humphrey Bogart delivers the classic line to Ingrid Bergman in Casablanca (1942). at You, Kid GRAN 30 SCANDINAVIAN REVIEW SCANDINAVIAN REVIEW 31 Ingrid Bergman at 26 HAT IS THERE LEFT TO SAY ABOUT INGRID BERGMAN? Journalists and biographers and film historians have been dipping W into Bergman’s life (1915–1982) so relentlessly for so long that it is easy to forget that it wasn’t always in the public domain. The woman’s career, off and on screen, started being dissected so minutely so many decades ago that just about the only survivors from all those labors are her children and a hand- ful of actors from the already-41-year-old Murder on the Orient Express. In short, and though many of us are loath to admit it, the world of Ingrid Bergman seems to have warp-sped away from us to distances we might not have thought possible. It may not be as remote as Planet Garbo, but it is still out there, back in that century they used to call the 20th with an air of self-satisfaction making it sound like the tiniest of steps before infinity. (“My God, man, it’s the 20th century!”) There is, of course, the record of her many performances—filmed, kinescoped, taped, digitized, hologrammed, whatever technical development preserves them next.

Focusing on the Italian popular magazine «Oggi»’s coverage of these stars’ scandals, my article aims to investigate popular discourses of sexuality and motherhood in relation to historical and social change in postwar Italy, in particular the interconnectedness of media scandals, star’s textual and extratextual images, and the symbolic construction of motherhood. Keywords Ingrid Bergman; Sophia Loren; star scandals; motherhood DOI 10.13130/2532-2486/13385 Negli anni Cinquanta, due sono gli scandali divistici legati alla sfera dell’intimità e della famiglia che vengono maggiormente discussi sulle pagine dei rotocalchi popolari: la relazione adulterina tra Ingrid Bergman e Roberto Rossellini, poi sfo- ciata in un matrimonio per procura e nella nascita di tre figli, e quella tra Sophia Loren e Carlo Ponti, sui quali i rotocalchi popolari costruiscono uno storytelling melodrammatico tra accuse di bigamia, rifugi all’estero e maternità mancate.

    CINERGIE il cinema e le altre arti 9 RECENSIONI 2015 New York Film Festival The Biographical Impulse The centerpiece of the 53rd New York Film Festival (September 25–October 11) was Danny Boyle’s biopic Steve Jobs, a Universal Pictures release, starring Michael Fassbender and Kate Winslet. This feature deals with the entrepreneur who launched the fi rst Macintosh, the NeXT work station, and the iMac. On the strength of this and other great selections, the 2015 NYFF demonstrated a biographical impulse in today’s cinema which is worth commenting upon, and possibly explaining. With the expression “biographical impulse,” I mean that it is as if the recent cinema of the 21st century had decided to tell the life story of its photographic, analogical predecessor by devoting fi ction and nonfi ction productions to the biography of the cinema itself. Closing night, for instance, was graced by Miles Ahead. Written, directed, and interpreted by Don Cheadle, it is a wonderful biopic of trumpeter Miles Davis (1926–1991). Although the narrative focuses on the 1970s, it explores how the musician invented his artistic persona. When he started the era of “cool jazz,” Miles Davis was also one of the fi rst sounds of the incipient French Nouvelle Vague. How can anyone forget Louis Malle’s Ascenseur pour l’échafaud / Elevator to the Gallows (1958), with Jeanne Moreau walking alone and wondering where her lover might be? Miles Davis happened to be in Paris when Malle was going through the rushes of Moreau’s nocturnal walk. The young Malle, a former assistant of Jacques Cousteau during the oceanographer’s expeditions on his legendary Calypso, invited the young Davis to play his trumpet and improvise in front of the screen.

More information about this work at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu/gc_pubs/146 Discover additional works at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu This work is made publicly available by the City University of New York (CUNY). Contact: [email protected] Out of Africa (Blu-ray) (Universal, 4.27.2010) When people complain about the films undeservedly receiving the best-picture Oscar, Out of Africa is one of the frequent targets. As with The English Patient and Shakespeare in Love, Sydney Pollack’s film is the kind of lush, romantic drama that drives some, especially fanboys, nuts. Often dismissed a slick piece of Hollywood kitsch, Out of Africa succeeds in part because it’s a slick piece of Hollywood kitsch, with echoes of The Letter, Casablanca, The African Queen, and Lawrence of Arabia. One could easily imagine Katharine Hepburn or Ingrid Bergman playing Danish writer Karen Blixen, aka Isak Dinesen, but Meryl Streep is much better. Regardless of how you feel about the rest of Out of Africa, its main asset is Streep. I’m not sure how accurate her Danish accent is, but while some actors use accents as a crutch, even Streep herself at times (“A dingo ate my baby”), here it is simply one of several tools helping her to explore a complex character. Certainly Streep’s mannered, but when is she not? Her mannerisms are actually much subtler than usual.
