Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 The Representation of Reality and Fantasy In the Films of Powell and Pressburger: 1939-1946 This thesis will examine the films planned or made by Powell and Pressburger in this period, with these aims: to demonstrate the way the contemporary realities of wartime Britain (political, social, cultural, economic) are represented in these films, and how the realities of British history (together with information supplied by the Ministry of Information and other government ministries) form the basis of much of their propaganda. to chart the changes in the stylistic combination of realism, naturalism, expressionism and surrealism, to show that all of these films are neither purely realist nor seamless products of artifice but carefully constructed narratives which use fantasy genres (spy stories, rural myths, futuristic utopias, dreams and hallucinations) to convey their message. -

Adventures in Film Music Redux Composer Profiles
Adventures in Film Music Redux - Composer Profiles ADVENTURES IN FILM MUSIC REDUX COMPOSER PROFILES A. R. RAHMAN Elizabeth: The Golden Age A.R. Rahman, in full Allah Rakha Rahman, original name A.S. Dileep Kumar, (born January 6, 1966, Madras [now Chennai], India), Indian composer whose extensive body of work for film and stage earned him the nickname “the Mozart of Madras.” Rahman continued his work for the screen, scoring films for Bollywood and, increasingly, Hollywood. He contributed a song to the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s Inside Man (2006) and co- wrote the score for Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). However, his true breakthrough to Western audiences came with Danny Boyle’s rags-to-riches saga Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Rahman’s score, which captured the frenzied pace of life in Mumbai’s underclass, dominated the awards circuit in 2009. He collected a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award for best music as well as a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for best score. He also won the Academy Award for best song for “Jai Ho,” a Latin-infused dance track that accompanied the film’s closing Bollywood-style dance number. Rahman’s streak continued at the Grammy Awards in 2010, where he collected the prize for best soundtrack and “Jai Ho” was again honoured as best song appearing on a soundtrack. Rahman’s later notable scores included those for the films 127 Hours (2010)—for which he received another Academy Award nomination—and the Hindi-language movies Rockstar (2011), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), and Beyond the Clouds (2017). -

1905 Arlington Journal
The ARLINGTON JOURNAL, Arlington, Texas. 1905 Thursday January 5, 1905 I WONDER. I wonder what would come to pass if every married man Took home a bunch of flowers tonight, or took some other plan To show his wife he‘d not forgot that still his love was true— I wonder what would happen. I wonder now, don‘t you? I wonder what would come to pass if every wife tonight Should meet her husband at the door for once with visage bright. And, if she let, without complaint, him get his supper through, I wonder what would happen. I wonder now, don‘t you? --Boston Traveler. Nay, nay, indeed; I wonder not a teeny, weeny mite; If ev‘ry married man took home a bunch of blooms tonight She‘d sniff suspiciously, she would, this partner to his vow, And think; ―I wonder what on earth the brute‘s been up to now!‖ And, if tonight each wife would greet her husband with a grin, (unreadable) and supper, and would stroke his hair where it was thin, (unreadable) all as meekly as a married fellow will, (unreadable) ―Good Lord, I‘m up against a millinery bill!‖ --J.
