Nor will you, because Patrick's relation is played by one of Hollywood's grandest dames. Reprising her Broadway triumph, Rosalind Russell received her fourth Oscar® nomination and third Golden Globe Award as the marvelous madcap woman who lives life to the hilt. Auntie Mame brings to bubbly life the mayhem Mame and her cronies create while guiding Patrick's fortunes. "Life is a banquet," Mame says, "and most poor suckers are starving to death!" With wit, style and a seasoned cast to dish humor and heart with gusto, Auntie Mame is a full-course meal of entertainment magic.

But Miss Ethel Barrymore's invitation goes instead to Miss Ethel "Dynamite" Jackson, a very blonde, very brassy chorus girl. And she's going to give Paris an Eiffel! Doris Day and Ray Bolger star in this musical bonbon highlighted by the Vernon Duke/E.Y. Harburg title tune and a high-kicking, bell-ringing rendition of the Jule Styne/Sammy Cahn "I'm Gonna Ring the Bell Tonight." Day is pure TNT as Dynamite, and Bolger's rubbery comic artistry ideally complements her. He's the stuffy bureaucrat who mismailed the Barrymore missive - and now has a stateroom full of Dynamite on his hands for a Paris-bound ocean voyage." Doris Day; Ray Bolger; Claude Dauphin; Eve Miller; George Givot; Paul Harvey; Herbert Farjeon; Wilson Miller; Raymond Largay; John Alvin; Jack Lomas 11/28/2017 888574551377 Doc Hollywood [Blu-ray] 1991 ""Beverly Hills. The most beautiful women in the world. Plastic surgery. What do these three things have in common?" asks Dr. Ben Stone (Michael J. Fox). "Me, in less than a week!" It turns out to be an eye-opening week. And Doc Hollywood turns out to be a witty charmer. Stone is a newly minted MD whose medical fast-lane cruise takes a small-town detour. Grady, South Carolina, Squash Capital of the South, is home to salt-of-the-earth folks (Julie Warner, Woody Harrelson, Bridget Fonda, David Ogden Stiers, Barnard Hughes) who give the West Coast-bound hotshot the seasoning he lacks. Doc Hollywood is a surefire prescription for comedy cheer!" Michael J.

Lorelai (Lauren Graham) still runs the Dragonfly Inn, and now lives with Luke (Scott Patterson). Her daughter, Rory (Alexis Bledel), now 32, juggles career complications and ex-boyfriends, while matriarch Emily (Kelly Bishop) adjusts to widowed life. In four memorable chapters studded with drop-ins by quirky Stars Hollow friends, the Gilmores confront long-standing unresolved issues, going head-to- head with passionate heart-to-hearts. This stirring, smart and emotional revival is both familiar and full of surprises. It's good to be home. Lauren Graham; Alexis Bledel; Scott Patterson; Kelly Bishop 11/28/2017 888574535414 Renegades of the West 1932 Western star Tom Keene plays old West ex-con Tom Bagby, newest addition to the cattle rustling gang headed by Curly Bogard (Rockcliffe Fellowes). Concerned about Tom's cough, Curly sends Tom to see Dr. Fawcett (Rosco Ates), where Tom captures the eye of the Doc's daughter, Mary (Betty Furness). Doc Fawcett quickly tumbles to Tom's jailbird background and forbids Betty from associating with the probable owlhoot. Unbeknownst to all, Tom is secretly undercover as a cattle rustler, looking to tie Curly to his father's murder. Before Tom can get the dirt on Curly and crew, Tom surprises townfolk and desperado alike when he unexpectedly adopts a child (Roland Southern). As Curly warms to the child, Tom discovers the true culprit, only for his old cell-mate, Blackie (Jim Mason), to come calling...What's a six-shooter single dad to do? Tom Keene; Roscoe Ates; Betty Furness; Jim Mason; Carl Miller; Max Wagner; Rockliffe Fellowes 11/28/2017 888574566739 Starlift 1951 It takes someone a lot more important than a studio mogul to get Doris Day, Gordon MacRae, James Cagney, Gary Cooper, Ruth Roman, Gene Nelson, Virginia Mayo, Jane Wyman, Randolph Scott and more Hollywood celebrities to costar in the same movie. It takes an Air Force corporal from Youngstown, Ohio! A charming tale of a noncom with a crush on a filmland ingenue is the backdrop for this spirited flag-waver featuring screen greats performing for - or just shooting the breeze with - starstruck flyboys in uniform. Songs by the Gershwins, Cole Porter and more legendary composers plus a hilarious Western production number with Cooper whoopin' it up as a steely Texas Ranger add to the red-white- and-blue fun. Doris Day; Gordon MacRae; Virginia Mayo; Gene Nelson; Ruth Roman; James Cagney; Gary Cooper; Virginia Gibson; Phil Harris; Frank Lovejoy; Lucille Norman; Louella Parsons; Randolph Scott; Jane Wyman; Patrice Wymore; Janice Rule; Dick Wesson; Ron Hagerthy 11/28/2017 888574575014 The Kid from Texas 1939 Yarn-spinning yokel William Quincy Malone (Dennis O'Keefe) is unique among the cowpuncher roustabouts working a ranch in Texas - he does it with a croquet mallet and a tennis ball, with the help of a hundred-trick pony by the name of Lone Star. Unlike his fellow Texan ranch riders, Malone dreams of the East, and the greatest horse show of all: polo. When a brother-sister pair of dilettante debutantes (Anthony Allan and Florence Rice) purchase Lone Star with an eye toward the polo pitch, Malone transforms himself into Wild Bill Malone, the greatest polo player in Texas, with the aid of a press-agent pal (Jack Carson). Soon making his official polo debut, Malone's fast mouth and faster fists make a mess of things, and he leaves the field in disgrace. Heading east to Queens, NY and a Wild West show with ranch buddy Snifty (Buddy Ebsen), Wild Bill gets a shot at redemption and romance when he brings polo to the rodeo. 11/28/2017 888574564827 The Old Maid 1939 ""She's just a sour old maid who hates me because I'm young and attractive and in love!" Headstrong, beautiful Tina has nothing but disdain for her Aunt Charlotte. What could she know of a young girl's heart? A great deal, in fact. For unloved, unlovable Aunt Charlotte is really Tina's mother, whose romance with a Civil War soldier who didn't return resulted in Tina's birth...and a lifetime of maternal sacrifice.As Charlotte, Bette Davis gives one of her most nuanced performances, aging from wide-eyed girl to gray-haired martinet. Miriam Hopkins provides effective counterbalance with her portrayal of Charlotte's effusive cousin, who raises Tina. Two women, one child - and a brilliant example of melodrama as art." Bette Davis; Miriam Hopkins; George Brent; Donald Crisp; Jane Bryan; Louise Fazenda; James Stephenson; Jerome Cowan; Cecilia Loftus; Rand Brooks; Janet Shaw; William Hopper 11/28/2017 888574564834 The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex 1939 Bette Davis and Errol Flynn made The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex fascinatingly public, striking sparks in this lavish Technicolor® tale of the ill-fated love between the aging Elizabeth I and the dashing Earl of Essex. Thoroughly unglamorous here - eyes and hairline shaved, face painted chalky white - double Academy Award® winner* Davis exudes such intelligence, energy and ardor that her romance with the decades-younger Essex (Flynn at the peak of his remarkable good looks and athletic verve) is completely believable. Based on Maxwell Anderson's play Elizabeth the Queen and directed by Michael Curtiz, this nominee for five Oscars® takes liberties with historical accuracy, but none with dramatic impact. Long may these tempestuous, titled lovers reign! Bette Davis; Errol Flynn; Olivia de Havilland; Donald Crisp; Alan Hale; Vincent Price; Henry Stephenson; Nanette Fabray; Ralph Forbes; Robert Warwick; Leo G.

  • Investigating Vocabulary in Academic Spoken English
    INVESTIGATING VOCABULARY IN ACADEMIC SPOKEN ENGLISH: CORPORA, TEACHERS, AND LEARNERS BY THI NGOC YEN DANG A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Applied Linguistics Victoria University of Wellington 2017 Abstract Understanding academic spoken English is challenging for second language (L2) learners at English-medium universities. A lack of vocabulary is a major reason for this difficulty. To help these learners overcome this challenge, it is important to examine the nature of vocabulary in academic spoken English. This thesis presents three linked studies which were conducted to address this need. Study 1 examined the lexical coverage in nine spoken and nine written corpora of four well-known general high-frequency word lists: West’s (1953) General Service List (GSL), Nation’s (2006) BNC2000, Nation’s (2012) BNC/COCA2000, and Brezina and Gablasova’s (2015) New-GSL. Study 2 further compared the BNC/COCA2000 and the New-GSL, which had the highest coverage in Study 1. It involved 25 English first language (L1) teachers, 26 Vietnamese L1 teachers, 27 various L1 teachers, and 275 Vietnamese English as a Foreign Language learners. The teachers completed 10 surveys in which they rated the usefulness of 973 non-overlapping items between the BNC/COCA2000 and the New- GSL for their learners in a five-point Likert scale. The learners took the Vocabulary Levels Test (Nation, 1983, 1990; Schmitt, Schmitt, & Clapham, 2001), and 15 Yes/No tests which measured their knowledge of the 973 words. Study 3 involved compiling two academic spoken corpora, one academic written corpus, and one non-academic spoken corpus.

  • Live on the Sunset Strip
    robert landau Excerpt: Live on the Sunset Strip The street that made music history Robert Landau’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Billboards of the Sunset Strip was published in October 2012 by Angel City Press. Downloaded from http://online.ucpress.edu/boom/article-pdf/2/4/79/381413/boom_2012_2_4_79.pdf by guest on 28 September 2021 The Sunset Strip is that 1.7-mile stretch of Sunset Boulevard that is now part of the city of West Hollywood, connecting Hollywood on the east (where funky Laurel Canyon descends to Sunset and meets Crescent Heights) with Beverly Hills to the west (where Doheny Road climbs to the posh mansions of 90210-land). There are actually many Sunset Strips—versions that live in real time and space, and versions that live in our collective fantasy. The actual landscape of the Strip is typical of Los Angeles, featuring buildings of every imaginable architectural style, a look captured perfectly by artist Ed Ruscha in his 1966 book Every Building on the Sunset Strip. Outdoor advertising permeates the vista, ready to capture the attention of the steady stream of eyeballs that comes with continuously heavy traffic. Billboards of varying sizes are sandwiched between and above colorful hotels, restaurants, offices, gas stations, sleazy strip malls, and trendy retail shops. Now, thanks to digital technology, billboards engulf entire buildings and cover whole city buses, adding even more visual congestion to an already over- saturated urban scene. By day, the Sunset Strip was where the business of the music industry was conducted in the Sixties and Seventies. Both high-rise luxury offices and older, cottage-style buildings have long housed record companies, producers, talent scouts, business managers, personal managers, public relations executives, advertising agencies, design firms, and even a few film, photo, and recording studios.

Le service de presse du studio les a fiancés pour des raisons publicitaires. L’écervelée Lina croit que leur amour est réel, alors que Don la déteste et ne joue le jeu du couple que pour la galerie et les magazines.
