Six years later, with her marriage in serious difficulty, Alfred Hitchcock offers her the chance to return to Hollywood to play the role of Marnie in his next film. But France is also threatening to annex Monaco, the tiny principality where she became the Princess. Grace is torn and forced to choose between the creative flame that still burns within her and her role as Her Serene Highness, Princess of Monaco. INTERVIEW WITH OLIVIER DAHAN “I was interested in telling how a torn woman finds it impossible – or at least very hard – to find the right balance between her life as a wife, a mother and a woman and her career” What did you find appealing about GRACE OF MONACO? Is it particularly difficult to direct an actress like her? Apart from anything else, it is the fact that she was an actress and an artist who had to give up on her career.

  • Opinions Libres - 1 / 10 - Edition PDF Du 6 Septembre 2020 2
    1 Un mariage risqué, suite Je me suis exprimé sur l’annonce par Microsoft de son souhait d’acquérir Yahoo le jour même où elle a eu lieu. C’était à chaud, mais je m’étais déjà posé la question auparavant. Cette annonce a depuis généré un nombre absolument incroyable de commentaires tant aux USA que chez nous en France. L’histoire est loin d’avoir démarré puisque Yahoo esquive la fusion, ou tout du moins en négocie le prix. Parmi les réactions, il y en avait quelques unes d’intéressantes commecelle de Louis van Proosdij, montrant comment Microsoft pourrait organiser son “branding” en séparant clairement la partie entreprise (“Microsoft”) et en affichant sous la bannière “Yahoo” tout ce qui relève du grand public chez l’éditeur. Et je dois reconnaitre que ma réaction à chaud n’était pas très constructive, listant à l’envie les raisons pour lesquelles une telle fusion ne pouvait pas fonctionner. Depuis, je n’ai pas vraiment changé d’avis, mais j’ai cherché à l’étayer par une petite perspective historique sur les succès et les échecs de Microsoft. Et ils sont nombreux, dans toutes les catégories, bien au delà des classiques Windows et Office. Dans une approche classique que l’on retrouve dans les études de cas des business schools, j’ai d’abord fait l’inventaire de l’existant. Sous forme d’un tableau, bien évidemment! J’en ai tiré quelques conclusions sur le pourquoi Microsoft a réussi et pourquoi il s’est gauffré ailleurs. Il s’agit presque toujours d’une course à l’innovation, au sens littéral du terme: à savoir, qui est le premier à diffuser largement une nouvelle technologie et si possible, durablement, jusqu’à ce qu’elle pénètre le marché au delà des “early adopters”.

Colvin is an utterly fearless and rebellious spirit, driven to the frontlines of conflicts across the globe to give voice to the voiceless, while constantly testing the limits between bravery and bravado. After being hit by a grenade in Sri Lanka, she wears a distinctive eye patch and is still as comfortable sipping martinis with London’s elite as she is confronting dictators. Colvin sacrifices loving relationships, and over time, her personal life starts to unravel as the trauma she’s witnessed takes its toll. Yet, her mission to show the true cost of war leads her -- along with renowned war photographer Paul Conroy (Jamie Dornan) -- to embark on the most dangerous assignment of their lives in the besieged Syrian city of Homs.

    EMBARGOED UNTIL 8:35AM PT ON JULY 16, 2015 67th EMMY® AWARDS NOMINATIONS For Programs Airing June 1, 2014 – May 31, 2015 Los Angeles, CA, July 16, 2015– Nominations for the 67th Emmy® Awards were announced today by the Television Academy in a ceremony hosted by Television Academy Chairman and CEO Bruce Rosenblum along with Uzo Aduba from the Netflix series Orange Is The New Black and Cat Deeley, the host of FOX’s So You Think You Can Dance. "This was truly a remarkable year in television,” said Rosenblum. “From the 40th Anniversary of Saturday Night Live, to David Letterman’s retirement and the conclusion of Mad Men, television’s creativity, influence and impact continue to grow and have never been stronger. From broadcast, to cable to digital services, our industry is producing more quality television than ever before. Television is the pre-eminent entertainment platform with extraordinarily rich and varied storytelling. The work of our members dominates the cultural discussion and ignites the passion of viewers around the world. All of us at the Academy are proud to be honoring the very best in television.” This year’s Drama and Comedy Series nominees included newcomers as well as returning programs to the Emmy competition: Transparent and UnBreakaBle Kimmy Schmidt in the Outstanding Comedy Series category and Better Call Saul in the Outstanding Drama Series competition. Additionally, Parks And Recreation returns to vie for Outstanding Comedy Series while Homeland is back in the running for Outstanding Drama Series. Orange Is The New Black is nominated for its second consecutive season, but in the drama category, following an Academy- sanctioned switch from last year’s comedy nomination.
