  • Pioneer Concierge Celebrates 25 Years
    Pioneer concierge celebrates 25 years October 17, 2007 By SANDY THORN CLARK Back in the ‘70s when Olga Pierce was fulfilling the ego-driven requests of celebrities including Pavarotti, Sophia Loren, Rex Harrison, Paul Newman, Robert De Niro, Robert Redford and Patrick Swayze, she didn’t envision turning her skills as a concierge at the now-defunct Whitehall Hotel & Club into a successful business. Now, the founder of Concierge Unlimited International, with offices in the Opera House in the West Loop, is celebrating her 25th year as president of the 50-employee firm that provides independent concierge services in the private, corporate and residential sectors. Fostering unique relationships and performing good deeds are key elements to CUI’s success, says Pierce, enjoying a breakfast of poached eggs and an English muffin in Zest, the second-floor restaurant in the Mag Mile’s Intercontinental Hotel. A pioneer in the concierge industry, Pierce launched her concept - the first in the world - following the 1982 closing of the exclusive, members-only Whitehall. At the insistence of her faithful clients, she continued her role as problem-solver extraordinaire with a private client base that included executives from USG, Storck USA, Standard Oil (now BP America), Donahue & Associates, Frain, Camins & Schwartzchild, John Phipps & Associates, and Smith Barney. Olga Pierce Corporate real estate accounts with Fifield Companies and Bennett & Kahnweiler followed. By 1989, Pierce placed the world’s first corporate concierge at the Time-Life Building, with Time, Life, People and American Hydrotech among the clients. CUI’s corporate client roster has grown to include AT&T, Baker & McKenzie, Boeing, Citicorp, Citadel, Clifford Law Offices, Energy BBDO, General Electric, JF McKinney & Associates, J.P.

  • PIPER-HEIDSIECK RETURNS for the 92Nd OSCARS®
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PIPER-HEIDSIECK RETURNS FOR THE 92nd OSCARS® The French Champagne House Celebrates 100 Years Since Prohibition with Special Limited-Edition Bottle Hollywood, CA (January 14, 2020) – Piper-Heidsieck, the revered French Champagne house known worldwide for its red label, is thrilled to announce its return as the sole Champagne to be served during the 92nd Oscars® awards season. This marks the sixth year of a long-term partnership between Piper-Heidsieck and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. One hundred years since the Eighteenth Amendment banned the sale of alcohol in the United States, Piper-Heidsieck is paying tribute to cinema in the Roaring Twenties with a limited-edition magnum to be served at this year’s Oscars. Featuring the House’s signature Cuvée Brut, the label will be a replica of the one used during the Prohibition era. “In the 1920s, bootleggers would smuggle Piper-Heidsieck into the United States where it would be secretly served in speakeasys throughout New York City. Now, Hollywood’s biggest stars will get to enjoy the same Piper-Heidsieck Brut during the biggest awards show of the year,” declared Benoit Collard, General Manager for Piper-Heidsieck. Piper-Heidsieck will be poured exclusively at the awards ceremony and Governors Ball, the Academy’s official Oscars after- party. In addition to the awards ceremony on February 9, Piper-Heidsieck champagne will be poured at Academy events in Los Angeles, New York and London, including the Oscar Nominees Luncheon on January 27. Get red carpet ready for Oscars night with Piper-Heidsieck! #PiperHeidsieck #PiperCinema #PiperRed #PiperProhibition For more information, please visit: http://Piper-Heidsieck.com or follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Frappé d’amnésie, il entreprend, avec l’aide d’un spécialiste, d’exhumer son passé. Mais ce qu’il découvre n’est pas vraiment agréable. Marié à une ravissante et tendre femme, il comprend avec effroi que ce passé est bien trouble et que marié maintes fois, on le recherche activement... pour polygamie ! LE REGARD DE CHARLOTTE GARSON Le miroir brisé de la masculinité Alors que l’Amérique a tricoté pendant les années 1930 et 40 les comédies « de remariage », resserrant les liens d’une institution discréditée à coup de brillantes scènes de ménage où époux et épouses s’éduquent mutuellement, le cinéma britannique d’après-guerre conclut film après film qu’il y aura toujours quelque chose de pourri au royaume matrimonial. Plaçant un amnésique face à ses mariages successifs, Un mari presque fidèle met en scène un Candide qui découvre différents ménages – l’un bourgeois et moderne, le suivant populaire et sentimental – sans y trouver la moindre promesse de bonheur. Le contraste entre les deux côtés de l’Atlantique est frappant : dans La Huitième Femme de Barbe Bleue d’Ernst Lubitsch (1938), Claudette Colbert donne du fil à retordre à Gary Cooper dont la fortune lui a permis d’enchaîner sept mariages avant de lui demander sa main, mais les Anglaises de cette comédie de Sidney Gilliat sortie en 1955 sont toutes prêtes à rempiler avec l’homme qui leur cachait sa sextuple vie.

  • Anna and the King: Digesting Difference
    Anna and the king: digesting difference Penny Van Esterik Abstract: This paper explores the relationship between food and national identity in ancient Siam and modern Thailand, as represented in the texts and films linked to Anna Leonowens, particularly Anna and the King and The King and I. While the fictional romantic relationship between the Indo–British governess and King Mongkut (Rama IV) has been critically analysed, little attention has been paid to the state banquet organ- ized by the king. In 1860s Siam, state banquets provided an opportunity to demonstrate the civilized status of the Siamese monarch, and hence the kingdom. Developing and building on the concepts of political commensality and culinary colonialism, the paper explores the importance of demonstrating civility through food. Keywords: state banquets; colonialism; nutritional anthropology; Western film performance; Siam Many readers have no doubt seen one or more of the films, Anna and the King of Siam (1946), The King and I (1956) and Anna and the King (1999), and it is equally likely that many readers have eaten some variety of Thai food. This paper draws these two experiences together by discussing the state banquet depicted in the texts and films related to Anna Leonowens’s diaries of her years in Bangkok (1862–67). To do this, I will look briefly at 1850s and 60s Siam during the reign of King Mongkut (Rama IV, r 1851–68), and then examine the textual and film representations of that historical period in twentieth century Thailand. History and its representations – we choose our fictions. For Westerners who have never visited Thailand, their image of the country may well come from seeing The King and I on stage or screen.
