  • 600 Graphic Link Words for Remembering Names and Faces
    600 Graphic Link Words for Female and Male First Names and Faces by Ron White and Lew Toulmin These are names and images to be used to remember names and faces. Focus on the person whose first name you are trying to remember, select a feature (“the file”) on his/her face that is distinctive, then place the image below onto the file, “seeing” it clearly in your mind’s eye. These images are drawn from my (Lew Toulmin’s) background and interest in history, aviation and foreign travel; you may wish to develop images of your own that link to the name of the person. Many of these images come from or were modified from Ron White’s excellent “Black Belt Memory” course, which is recommended. The most popular names are marked on the right with a number sign (#) and the relevant ranking.

  • Press Kit Falling Angels
    Falling Angels A film by Scott Smith Based on the novel by Barbara Gowdy With Miranda Richardson Callum Keith Rennie Katherine Isabelle RT : 101 minutes 1 Short Synopsis It is 1969 and seventeen year old Lou Field and her sisters are ready for change. Tired of enduring kiddie games to humour a Dad desperate for the occasional shred of family normalcy, the Field house is a place where their Mom’s semi-catatonic state is the result of a tragic event years before they were born. But as the autumn unfolds, life is about to take a turn. This is the year that Lou and her sisters are torn between the lure of the world outside and the claustrophobic world of the Field house that can no longer contain the girls’ restless adolescence. A story of a calamitous family trying to function, Falling Angels is a story populated by beautiful youthful rebels and ill-equipped parents coping with the draw of a world in turmoil beyond the boundaries of home and a manicured lawn. 2 Long Synopsis Treading the fine line between adolescence and adulthood, the Field sisters have all but declared war on their domineering father. Though Jim Field (Genie and Gemini winner Callum Keith Rennie ) runs the family house like a military camp, it’s the three teenaged daughters who really run the show and baby-sit their fragile mother Mary, (Two-time Oscar ® nominee Miranda Richardson) as she quietly sits on the couch and quells her anxiety with whiskey. It’s 1969 and beneath suburbia’s veneer of manicured lawns and rows of bungalows, the world faces explosive social change.

  • Amazing Grace
    AMAZING GRACE UK, 2006, d. Michael Apted It is said that the hymn Amazing Grace is the best known in the English- speaking world. Most would not know that it was written by a ship’s captain, heavily involved in the 18th century slave trade, who experienced a conversion and devoted his later life to prayer and reparation. His name was John Newton – and he is played most movingly here by Albert Finney. However, the focus is on the anti-slavery campaigner, William Wilberforce. He is played with intensity and conviction by television’s Captain Horatio Hornblower, Ioann Gryffudd. And he is supported by a fine and extensive British cast including Michael Gambon as Lord Fox, Benedict Cumberbatch as the young Prime Minister, William Pitt, Rufus Sewell as the activist the Rev. Thomas Clarkson, Ciaran Hinds as the arrogant Lord Tarleton of Liverpool and Romola Garai as Barbara Spooner who eventually married Wilberforce. Most audiences will find Amazing Grace a significant cinema experience. Its style is very much the British heritage recreation of a period, a meticulous presentation of period, costumes, décor and the atmosphere of the times – which culminates in a moving brass band rendition of Amazing Grace. But, what will be important for audiences is the theme of the inhumanity and injustice of slavery and the fact that the plantations of the West Indies and the Americas depended for their prosperity on slave labour and the urban wealth of the 18th century metropolises, especially those in Britain and America, was based on slavery. 2007 sees the 200th anniversary of the Act for Abolition of the Slave Trade throughout the British Empire, although the final Slavery Abolition Act was not passed until 1833, the year of William Wilberforces’s death.

    SPIES, REAL AND IMAGINED Coordinators: Lucy Kirk, Rena Shagan, and Maureen Sullivan "I've got a story to tell you . about spies," says Ricki Tarr in Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. Stories about spies raise many issues - morality, patriotism, recruiting, betrayal, conspiracy. They also tell us what motivates people to become spies - love of danger, ideology, money, blackmail . We investigate the matrix of issues and motivation through five books, both fiction and non-fiction, concentrating on the Cold War. We discuss the intelligence organizations, their spycraft, and the believability of the characters. Background material includes the history of the Cold War, its participants and events. Some of the best spy fiction is written by former case officers. Coordinator Lucy Kirk shares her experience constructing her own spy novel, including what a career officer can disclose about operations and how to fictionalize former colleagues. Readings: NOTE: Low cost used books are available from BookFinder.com. Any edition can be purchased. Please read entire book prior to first week's discussion of that book. 1.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.
