(Reese Morissette II) DISCLAIMER | DMCA R8BUZZDIPL8R // Doc Straight from the Horses Mouth: Ronald Neame, an Autobiography STRAIGHT FROM THE HORSES MOUTH: RONALD NEAME, AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY Scarecrow Press. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Paperback. 328 pages. Dimensions: 8.5in. x 5.5in. x 0.9in.Now in Paperback! Ronald Neames autobiography takes its title from one of his best-loved films, The Horses Mouth (1958), starring Alec Guinness. In an informative and entertaining style, Neame discusses the making of that film, along with several others, including In Which We Serve, Blithe Spirit, Brief Encounter, Great Expectations, Tunes of Glory, I Could Go on Singing, The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, Scrooge, The Poseidon Adventure, and Hopscotch. Straight from the Horses Mouth provides a fascinating, first-hand account of a unique filmmaker, who began his career as assistant cameraman on Hitchcocks first talkie, Blackmail, and went on to direct Maggie Smith, Judy Garland, Walter Matthau, and many other prominent performers. The book includes tales of the on-and-o-the-set antics of comedian George Formby, and original accounts of his experiences working with Noel Coward and David Lean. This is not simply an autobiography, but rather a history of British cinema from the 1920s through the 1960s, and Hollywood cinema from the 1960s through the present.

    BECTU History Project - Interview No. 221 [Copyright BECTU] Transcription Date: Interview Dates: 8 November 1991 Interviewer: John Legard Interviewee: Teddy Darvas, Editor Tape 1 Side A (Side 1) John Legard: Teddy, let us start with your early days. Can you tell us where you were born and who your parents were and perhaps a little about that part of your life? The beginning. Teddy Darvas: My father was a very poor Jewish boy who was the oldest of, I have forgotten how many brothers and sisters. His father, my grandfather, was a shoemaker or a cobbler who, I think, preferred being in the cafe having a drink and seeing friends. So he never had much money and my father was the one brilliant person who went to school and eventually to university. He won all the prizes at Gymnasium, which is the secondary school, like a grammar school. John Legard: Now, tell me, what part or the world are we talking about? Teddy Darvas: This is Budapest. He was born in Budapest and whenever he won any prizes which were gold sovereigns, all that money went on clothes and things for brothers and sisters. And it was in this Gymnasium that he met Alexander Korda who was in a parallel form. My father was standing for Student's Union and he found somebody was working against him and that turned out to be Alexander Korda, of course the family name was Kelner. They became the very, very greatest of friends. Alex was always known as Laci which is Ladislav really - I don't know why.
  • CUL Keller Archive Catalogue

    CUL Keller Archive Catalogue

    HANS KELLER ARCHIVE: working copy A1: Unpublished manuscripts, 1940-49 A1/1: Unpublished manuscripts, 1940-49: independent work This section contains all Keller’s unpublished manuscripts dating from the 1940s, apart from those connected with his collaboration with Margaret Phillips (see A1/2 below). With the exception of one pocket diary from 1938, the Archive contains no material prior to his arrival in Britain at the end of that year. After his release from internment in 1941, Keller divided himself between musical and psychoanalytical studies. As a violinist, he gained the LRAM teacher’s diploma in April 1943, and was relatively active as an orchestral and chamber-music player. As a writer, however, his principal concern in the first half of the decade was not music, but psychoanalysis. Although the majority of the musical writings listed below are undated, those which are probably from this earlier period are all concerned with the psychology of music. Similarly, the short stories, poems and aphorisms show their author’s interest in psychology. Keller’s notes and reading-lists from this period indicate an exhaustive study of Freudian literature and, from his correspondence with Margaret Phillips, it appears that he did have thoughts of becoming a professional analyst. At he beginning of 1946, however, there was a decisive change in the focus of his work, when music began to replace psychology as his principal subject. It is possible that his first (accidental) hearing of Britten’s Peter Grimes played an important part in this change, and Britten’s music is the subject of several early articles.

    BBC Book Selections 2011-2012

    BBC Book Selections 2011-2012 Unbroken (Laura Hillenbrand) - September This World War II story of survival, resilience and redemption, comes from the author who gave us the popular Sea Biscuit. It’s the true story of Louie Zamperini, a rough and tumble kid, a wit, prankster, and reformed juvenile delinquent who survived the sharks of the Pacific to refine his thieving skills in Japanese POW camps. Not only that – but the story also takes readers to places as disparate as the 1939 Olympics in Berlin, and to Billy Graham’s 1949 Los Angeles Crusade. Yes, it is also a story of faith.. My Reading Life (Pat Conroy) October The popular author shares stories and thoughts about books that shaped his life and literary career, the people who encouraged him along the way. In many ways, it is a book about books for people who enjoy books. This is not a voluminous tome, but it is a serious reflection on how a lonely young boy with little opportunity to make friends because his military family was constantly moving from base to base, a boy tormented by an abusive father, was able to find both an escape and a calling in books. Caleb’s Crossing (Geraldine Brooks) November In 1665, a young man from Martha's Vineyard became the first Native American to graduate from Harvard College. Upon this slender factual scaffold, Brooks has created a tale of love and faith, magic and adventure. The narrator, Bethia Mayfield, lives in a tiny settlement amid a small band of pioneers and Puritans. At twelve, she encounters Caleb, the young son of a Wampanoag chieftain, and the two forge a tentative secret friendship.
  • Bill Wrobel's DVD Collection, Review & Music Analysis

    Bill Wrobel's DVD Collection, Review & Music Analysis

    Bill Wrobel’s DVD Collection, Review & Music Analysis A man is often known by the company he keeps. I suppose this applies not only to people routinely around him but also to the specific kinds of music and dvds he purchases as a personal collection to enjoy. As John Burroughs wrote in his poem, Waiting : “My own shall come to me.” This is the law of attraction (like attracts like). Now: Food for the soul to me includes music. Music for most people is obviously a pleasure, refined or not, ridiculous or sublime. Music can calm ones nerves in the stresses of life; reminds you of the heavenly; reminds you of beauty while sometimes involved in the ugliness or drudgery of daily life; helps you feel better when life gets you down, and restores harmony and peace (if only temporarily). I happen to love Golden Age and Silver Age music (music that I grew up with), and of course this includes Romantic era classical music especially (Tchaikovsky, Delibes, Wagner, etc.). As most people who read my site already know, my top favorite film composers are Bernard Herrmann and Max Steiner. Then I like Jerry Goldsmith in most cases, Miklos Rozsa, Dimitri Tiomkin, John Barry, and so forth. So obviously I will buy dvds (and cds) that contain their music. I tend to buy more dvds than cds because the music was intended to be paired with the images on the screen. I enjoy both mediums but music married with film is the best or most effective expression since it was meant for that particular art medium.
