  • A Most Violent Year
    A MOST VIOLENT YEAR Yönetmen J.C. Chandor Yapımcılar J.C. Chandor Neal Dodson Anna Gerb Türü Suç, Aksiyon Oyuncular Oscar Isaac Jessica Chastain Albert Brooks Elyes Gabel Catalina Sandıno Moreno Alessandro Nivola David Oyelowo Yapım Yılı 2014 İthalat/Dağıtım Pinema Vizyon Tarihi: 10 Temmuz 2015 SİNOPSİS Akademi ödüllü J. C. Chandor’un yönetmenliğini ve yapımcılığını üstlendiği “A MOST VIOLENT YEAR”, 1981 kışında New York’ta geçen dokunaklı bir suç filmi. 1981, istatistiklere göre şehrin tarihindeki en tehlikeli yılıdır. Abel Morales ( Oscar Isaac); şiddet dolu bu şehirde, Amerikan rüyasının peşinde olan bir Latin Amerikalı göçmendir. Abel, Brooklynli eşi Anna’nın (Jessica Chastain) gangster babasından satın aldığı küçük bir kalorifer yakıtı işini büyütmeye çalışmaktadır. İşini kurallara uygun şekilde yönetmeye kararlıyken, başarıya çıkan merdivenlerin eğri olduğunu fark eder. Bu sırada meydana gelen rekabetler ve nedensiz saldırılar işini, ailesini ve hepsinden önemlisi, yolunun doğruluğuna olan inancını tehdit etmektedir. YAPIM HAKKINDA J.C. Chandor son filmi “A MOST VIOLENT YEAR” ile izleyiciyi bir kez daha tehlikenin ve ahlaki kasvetin eşiğine getiriyor. Film, New York’un kayıtlara göre en şiddetli yılı olan 1981’de beş ilçesinde geçiyor. 1920’lerin yükselen metropolü olan, 1970’lerdeki petrol krizinden çıkan şehir, dramatik bir süreç geçirmiş ve bütçe kesintileri yüzünden duraklama dönemine girmiştir. Bu arada suç oranı ve siyasi yolsuzluklar artmıştır. 80’lerin başı güvenli çevre banliyölere doğru yapılan “Beyaz Göç”ün zirvesiydi. Göçmenler fırsat arayışıyla kasabalara akın ederken şehrin dokusunu ciddi düzeyde değiştiriyorlardı. Gerilim ve karmaşa yüzünden, kapitalizmin merkezinde ticaret yapmak endişeli bir hâl almıştı. Belediye, mafya ve iş dünyası arasındaki kuralların işlediği günler geride kalmıştı. Daha yüksek endüstri ve ticaret düzeyine çıkmaya çalışan küçük iş sahipleri, her ayrıntıdan kendileri sorumlu olacaktı.

    Boy George (George O'Dowd) (b. 1961) by Tina Gianoulis Boy George performing Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. in London in 2001. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Photograph by Jessica Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Hansson. Image appears under the Boy George is, like many middle-aged queers, a survivor. And, like many pop icons, Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike one of the main trials he has had to survive is his own fame. License Version 2.5. The Boy George persona, which came to international attention with the success of the band Culture Club in the early 1980s, threatened to overshadow completely Boy George the performer. However, George's talent, resilience, and genuine affability have seen him through his band's breakup, his own drug addiction, an unexpected solo comeback, and a 1998 reunion with Culture Club. Retaining his sense of style and eclecticism throughout, George has proved he is not merely a stage persona, but also a real original and a gay pioneer. Born in Bexleyheath, a cheerless section of South London, on June 14, 1961, George Alan O'Dowd was the third of six children born to working class Irish parents. His father, a builder and boxing coach, and his mother, who worked in a nursing home, had little attention to spare to give emotional support to their children, especially little George, who showed signs of being "different" from a very early age. He often showed up at church in outlandish hats and platform shoes. Indeed, the eccentric clothes he wore to school got him assigned to a class for incorrigibles.

FRANNY'S CANDIES “I roll the Kettledrum candy in my mouth.” Franny pictures herself chewing on Boston Fruit Slices and her jaw flexes automatically. “Chewy wedges taste lemon and lime and go BOOM-bah-BOOM when I bite into one.” She adds, “When I unwrap a second Kettledrum out of its tight parchment, I examine the sour and sugar-copper rind. They are better enjoyed in pairs. Tomás, why aren’t Kettledrum candies hard? Like Lifesavers or Butterscotches? When they clink against your teeth, they could sound like a snare or a top hat. I can hear a soft bass rumble a tympani symphony deep within me. I swear, the Kettledrums make my voice go baritone when I sing BOOM-bah-BOOM after eating one. It’s true: I’ve tried it!” Franny confesses this to me under her gummy-bear breath and I agree unconditionally the way a best friend must. We come here because most of her schoolmates do not make their way down the block to Doña Dolce.

Still her mother brought her halfway around the world to UC Davis, where four years of treatments and surgeries took their toll on her body and her childhood, but ultimately reversed the disease. Azadeh might have turned away from her grueling past. Instead she chose to embrace it. Today, as a volunteer for support programs at UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, she helps other young people facing similar cancer challenges. Here, she offers others not only access to practical resources, but also something more profound: a survivor’s understanding and empathy.
