  • Hbo Premieres the Third Season of Game of Thrones
    HBO PREMIERES THE THIRD SEASON OF GAME OF THRONES The new season will premiere simultaneously with the United States on March 31st Miami, FL, March 18, 2013 – The battle for the Iron Throne among the families who rule the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros continues in the third season of the HBO original series, Game of Thrones. Winner of two Emmys® 2011 and six Golden Globes® 2012, the series is based on the famous fantasy books “A Song of Ice and Fire” by George R.R. Martin. HBO Latin America will premiere the third season simultaneously with the United States on March 31st. Many of the events that occurred in the first two seasons will culminate violently, with several of the main characters confronting their destinies. But new challengers for the Iron Throne rise from the most unexpected places. Characters old and new must navigate the demands of family, honor, ambition, love and – above all – survival, as the Westeros civil war rages into autumn. The Lannisters hold absolute dominion over King’s Landing after repelling Stannis Baratheon’s forces, yet Robb Stark –King of the North– still controls much of the South, having yet to lose a battle. In the Far North, Mance Rayder (new character portrayed by Ciaran Hinds) has united the wildlings into the largest army Westeros has ever seen. Only the Night’s Watch stands between him and the Seven Kingdoms. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen – reunited with her three growing dragons – ventures into Slaver’s Bay in search of ships to take her home and allies to conquer it.

    Tea & Coffee Selection Morning menU Food with Friends Cocktails Wines by the Glass Spirit Selection Local Drinks CHARLIE CHAPLIN n 1921 Charlie Chaplin checked in to the Slieve Donard. His first marriage to Mildred Harris had ended in an Iacrimonious divorce and he was seeking rest and solace. To add to his woes he had recently learned of the death of his first love Hetty Kelly who hailed from County Down and he was hoping to find something of her spirit on his visit. He signed the hotel register giving his address as simply New York City and for a while, he was taken to the hearts of Newcastle people as their very own link to the wonderful world of the movies. Sir William Hastings, Chairman of the Hastings Hotels Group, is very proud of the hotel’s Chaplin link. “ I suppose not everyone can be a Charlie Chaplin, but at our hotel we like to think we give everyone the movie star treatment.” So if you catch the essence of a spirit, perhaps gazing out to sea, or at the majestic Mourne Mountains when next you visit Chaplin’s Bar, don’t be surprised.

Mierzejewska: Charlie Chaplin: The Genius Behind Comedy Charlie Chaplin: The Genius Behind Comedy by Zuzanna Mierzejewska (English 1102) he quote, “A picture with a smile-and perhaps, a tear” (“The Kid”) is not just an introduction to Charlie Chaplin’s silent film, The Kid, but also a description of his life in a nutshell. Many Tmay not know that despite Chaplin’s success in film and comedy, he had a very rough childhood that truly affected his adult life. Unfortunately, the audience only saw the man on the screen known world-wide as the Tramp, characterized by: his clown shoes, cane, top hat and a mustache. His humor was universal; it focused on the simplicity of our daily routines and the funniness within them. His comedy was well-appreciated during the silent film era and cheered soldiers up as they longed for peace and safety during World War I and other events in history.

  • Film Essay for The
    The Kid By Jeffrey Vance “The Kid” (1921) is one of Charles Chaplin’s finest achievements and remains universally beloved by critics and audiences alike. The film is a perfect blend of comedy and drama and is arguably Chap- lin’s most personal and autobiographical work. Many of the settings and the themes in the film come right out of Chaplin’s own impoverished London child- hood. However, it was the combination of two events, one tragic (the death of his infant son) and one joyful (his chance meeting with Jackie Coogan), that led Chaplin to shape the tale of the abandoned child and the lonely Tramp. The loss of three-day-old Norman Spencer Chaplin undoubtedly had a great effect on Chaplin, and the emotional pain appears to have triggered his creativ- ity, as he began auditioning child actors at the Chap- lin Studios ten days after his son’s death. It was dur- ing this period that Chaplin encountered a four-year- old child performer named Jackie Coogan at Orphe- um Theater in Los Angeles, where his father had just performed an eccentric dance act. Chaplin spent more than an hour talking to Jackie in the lob- by of the Alexandria Hotel, but the idea of using Jackie in a film did not occur to him. After he heard that Roscoe Arbuckle had just signed Coogan, Chaplin agonized over his missed opportunity. Later, Charlie Chaplin as The Tramp sits in a doorway with the he discovered that Arbuckle had signed Jack orphan he has taken under his wing (Jackie Coogan).

I tried to compose elegant and romantic music to frame my comedies in contrast to the tramp character, for elegant music gave my comedies an emotional dimension. Musical arrangers rarely understood this. They wanted the music to be funny. But I would explain that I wanted no competition, I wanted the music to be a counterpoint of grave and charm, to express sentiment, without which, as Hazlitt says, a work of art is incomplete. (...) Nothing is more adventurous and exciting than to hear the tunes one has composed played for the first time by a fifty piece orchestra.“ - Charles Chaplin 3 WELKOM De magie van Charlie Chaplin blijft ook na bijna 100 jaar fantastisch indrukwekkend, ontroerend en hilarisch. De sympathieke zwerver, die ondanks zijn goede bedoelingen toch steeds weer in de problemen raakt, laat ons allemaal, klein én groot, lachen en nadenken.
