  • Spring Breakers” Was Pure Gold, but for Some Reason, Tye Sheridan’S Passionate Line-Reading from “Mud” Stands Out
    SATURDAY, JANUARY 4, 2014 14. ‘Mud’ Sure, everything that came out of James Franco’s blinged-out mouth in “Spring Breakers” was pure gold, but for some reason, Tye Sheridan’s passionate line-reading from “Mud” stands out. You can hear the pain and betrayal in his teenage voice, as well as the sound of broken prom- ises and unmet expectations. It’s a simple line of dialogue from writer-director Jeff Nichols but it packed one hell of a punch. 15. ‘Blackfish’ It was a pretty good year for villains, with The Animals from “You’re Next” giving Michael Fassbender (“12 Years a Slave”) and Woody Harrelson (“Out of the Furnace”) a run for their money. But for my money, the villain I’d hate to be locked in a dark room with is Tilikum the Whale from the terrifying documentary “Blackfish.” It used to be a dream to go to SeaWorld, but now, it’s a nightmare. 16. ‘Upstream Color’ Even the people who like and defend this movie seem to have no idea what it all means. I don’t need a movie to answer all my questions, or for my cinematic narratives to be tied up with a bow, but this movie doesn’t make a lick of sense and Shane Carruth’s refusal to explain it is that much more frustrating. This self-distributed art house sen- sation is more “art” than “movie.” 17. ‘World War Z’ Remember when the press wrote off this zombie epic 24. ‘American Hustle’ great about his nearly wordless performance? Stick me on a sight unseen, months before its release? Well guess what - I’ll bet most of you didn’t see Melissa Leo’s villainy in boat all alone in the Indian Ocean and I could deliver an it was actually pretty damn good.

    !1 of !6 Giles Foreman Centre" for Acting A LEADING PROFESSIONAL ACTING STUDIO, "BASED IN THE HEART OF SOHO " " " ACTOR TRAINING | FILM & TV PRODUCTION | CORPORATE" COMMUNICATION LONDON | NEW" YORK | PARIS "" What" makes the GFCA 16-month advanced Professional Intensive " Acting/Acting-Directing Programme unique? Our Advanced course is equivalent in level to Post Graduate study. However, the training is designed for those creative individuals - from any background - who have the capacity, ability and motivation to enter the Industry. The programme involves 30+ hours of intensive classes and rehearsal exercises per week, taught by top- level specialist coaches, each with extensive professional experience. There are in-house showings throughout the course, and plays are presented to the public and Industry during the final two terms. During the final term, as well as advanced-level classes, students may join the Spotlight Casting Graduate scheme; scenes are filmed for showreel, there are Industry events, and a range of further performance opportunities. These continue after the conclusion of the formal training. We take only a single cohort of Intensive-Route acting students each year, to provide a focussed training designed to bring out individual strengths, and we welcome applications from people from a wide variety of previous backgrounds and experience. The programme is tailored towards the unique mix of talent drawn to our centrally-located Studio from across the UK, Europe and beyond. We have excellent links with UK and European Casting Directors, as well as a base in New York, and ofer many opportunities to showcase talent to European casting directors, largely due to the strong connections formed by our Director, Giles Foreman and his extensive work as a film acting-coach.

  • Philosophy Goes to the Movies
    PHILOSOPHY GOES TO THE MOVIES ‘Philosophy Goes to the Movies is very clearly and engagingly written. It has a particular claim on the attention of those preparing students for a systematic study of philosophy, one that distinguishes it from any other introductory book I know of.’ Stephen Mulhall, University of Oxford ‘I think this is an excellent text. Falzon is in control of his material. He writes clearly and at a level that undergraduates can understand. He seems as comfortable describing films as he is explaining the nature of a philosophical problem. It will make an outstanding text to use in introductory philosophy classes.’ Thomas Wartenburg, Mount Holyoke College, USA Philosophy Goes to the Movies is a new kind of introduction to philosophy that makes use of film to help us understand philosophical ideas and positions. Drawing on art- house movies like Cinema Paradiso and Hollywood blockbusters such as The Matrix, Christopher Falzon introduces and discusses central areas of philosophical concern, including: • the theory of knowledge • the self and personal identity • ethics • social and political philosophy • science and technology • critical thinking. Falzon draws from the ideas of a diverse selection of thinkers, from Plato and Descartes to Marcuse and Foucault. Ideal for the beginner, this book guides the student through philosophy using lively and illuminating cinematic examples including Total Recall, Crimes and Misdemeanors, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Antz and Wings of Desire. It will also appeal to anyone interested in the philosophical dimensions of cinema. Christopher Falzon is Lecturer in Philosophy at Newcastle University, Australia. He is the author of Foucault and Social Dialogue (Routledge, 1998).

  • Again: Vowels Or Colors? by Victor Ginsburgh &Stamos Metzidakis
    Athens Journal of Philology - Volume 6, Issue 4 – Pages 225-234 On Rimbaud’s "Vowels," Again: Vowels or Colors? † By Victor Ginsburgh & Stamos Metzidakis Arthur Rimbaud’s sonnet Vowels presents a poetic vision based ostensibly on a quasi- psychedelic or synesthetic experience. It has inspired writers, critics, painters, and singers for over a century mainly because of its often obscure form and content. From the first verse of the text, for instance, the author juxtaposes each of the normal five French vowels printed in capital letters with what appears to be a random choice of an "appropriate" color. As a result, the majority of readers assume that these colors somehow correspond, semantically speaking, to the selected vowels. In making such connections, however, our poet suggests that his specific fusion of basic colors and sounds is capable of generating not just one but multiple significations, be they religious, erotic, aesthetic, even anthropological. Yet the poem itself - an irregular French sonnet - already derives much of its obscurity from another odd feature: the faulty order of French vowels used by Rimbaud: A to O instead of A to U or Y. Formal explanations are often cited to justify this so-called "mistake." This paper demonstrates that his poem hides a different interpretation of the words used to expand upon these sound/color combinations. After all, vowels are metonymically linked to sounds, since they constitute the minimal elements of the latter. Contemporary linguists have discovered, however, that in almost all languages, colors come in the same fixed order of words - Black, White, Red, Green and Blue - that Rimbaud proposes.

    through FILMS 70 years of European History through films is a product in Erasmus+ project „70 years of European History 1945-2015”. It was prepared by the teachers and students involved in the project – from: Greece, Czech Republic, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Turkey. It’ll be a teaching aid and the source of information about the recent European history. A DANGEROUS METHOD (2011) Director: David Cronenberg Writers: Christopher Hampton, Christopher Hampton Stars: Michael Fassbender, Keira Knightley, Viggo Mortensen Country: UK | GE | Canada | CH Genres: Biography | Drama | Romance | Thriller Trailer In the early twentieth century, Zurich-based Carl Jung is a follower in the new theories of psychoanalysis of Vienna-based Sigmund Freud, who states that all psychological problems are rooted in sex. Jung uses those theories for the first time as part of his treatment of Sabina Spielrein, a young Russian woman bro- ught to his care. She is obviously troubled despite her assertions that she is not crazy. Jung is able to uncover the reasons for Sa- bina’s psychological problems, she who is an aspiring physician herself. In this latter role, Jung employs her to work in his own research, which often includes him and his wife Emma as test subjects. Jung is eventually able to meet Freud himself, they, ba- sed on their enthusiasm, who develop a friendship driven by the- ir lengthy philosophical discussions on psychoanalysis. Actions by Jung based on his discussions with another patient, a fellow psychoanalyst named Otto Gross, lead to fundamental chan- ges in Jung’s relationships with Freud, Sabina and Emma.
