A film produced by GET IN THE PICTURE PRODUCTIONS and co-produced by MANTAR FILM - CINE CHROMATIX - REC FILMS BASED ON BLOOD WEDDING THE BRIDE FROM FEDERICO GARCÍA LORCA and I follow you through the air, like a straw lost in the wind. SYNOPSIS THE BRIDE - Based on “Blood Wedding” from F. García Lorca - Dirty hands tear the earth. A woman’s mouth shivers out of control. She breathes heavily, as if she were about to choke... We hear her cry, swallow, groan... Her eyes are flooded with tears. Her hands full with dry soil. There’s barely nothing left of her white dress made out of organza and tulle. It’s full of black mud and blood. Staring into the dis- tance, it’s dicult for her to breathe. Her lifeless face, dirtied with mud, soil, blood... she can’t stop crying. Although she tries to calm herself the crying is stronger, deeper. THE BRIDE, alone underneath a dried tree in the middle of a swamp, screams out loud, torn, endless... comfortless. LEONARDO, THE GROOM and THE BRIDE, play together. Three kids in a forest at the banks of a river. The three form an inseparable triangle. However LEONARDO and THE BRIDE share an invisible string, ferocious, unbreakable... THE GROOM looks at them... Years have gone by, and THE BRIDE is getting ready for her wedding. She’s unhappy. Doubt and anxiety consume her. She lives in the middle of white dessert lands, barren, in her father’s house with a glass forge. -

Born in 1899 in Oak Park, Illinois He was the second of six kids Hemingway's mother, a music teacher and director of the church choir, spent her time with the kids educating them on music, art, concerts, and operas His father, a physician, taught them of the joy of being in nature, Hemingway took this knowledge and love of nature everywhere he went. After high school, he worked as a writer for the Kansas City Star for six months Hemingway wished to sigh up for the war, but due to a glass eye was denied After witnessing a man stranded at the union station, left to die because of small pox and nearby peoples fear to approach him, Hemingway took up the path of an ambulance driver. Lived the life of a celebrity Minimalist Hemingway employed a distinctive style which drew comment from many critics At the beginning of his career Hemingway did not give way to lengthy geographical and psychological description. Though later he used he vividly described nature. His style had been said to lack substance because he avoids direct statements and descriptions of emotion. Later he began to write more deeply into emotions, mostly discussing death and providing a detailed picture in the readers mind Style seen as direct and simple He used his senses as the center for his writing Believed the mind was “treacherous and abstract” Wrote in an unconventional style, with the problems of war, violence and death as their themes, presenting a symbolic interpretation of life. While working in Michigan, Hemingway met Elizabeth Hadley Richardson, an inexperienced and naïve girl, educated at an all girls school. -
False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen
False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen by Nicholas Vick November, 2012 Director of Thesis: Amanda Klein Major Department: English Woody Allen is an auteur who is deeply concerned with the visual presentation of his cityscapes. However, each city that Allen films is presented in such a glamorous light that the depiction of the cities is falsely authentic. That is, Allen's cityscapes are actually unrealistic recreations based on his nostalgia or stilted view of the city's culture. Allen's treatment of each city is similar to each other in that he strives to create a cinematic postcard for the viewer. However, differing themes and characteristics emerge to define Allen's optimistic visual approach. Allen's hometown of Manhattan is a place where artists, intellectuals, and writers can thrive. Paris denotes a sense of nostalgia and questions the power behind it. Allen's London is primarily concerned with class and the social imperative. Finally, Barcelona is a haven for physicality, bravado, and sex but also uncertainty for American travelers. Despite being in these picturesque and dynamic locations, happiness is rarely achieved for Allen's characters. So, regardless of Allen's dreamy and romanticized visual treatment of cityscapes and culture, Allen is a director who operates in a continuous state of contradiction because of the emotional unrest his characters suffer.

Metaphorical Illness in Hemingway's Works Abstract Hemingway, through his characters, illustrates the many different genres and functions of disease. More than just inflictors of sadness and pain, disease and injury are part of the human condition. They are undeniable truths that give life to humanity, Hemingway’s characters, and Hemingway himself. As Hemingway writes in Death in the Afternoon, “…all stories, if continued far enough, end in death, and he is no true storyteller who would keep that from you.” Part of Hemingway’s art is acknowledging that there is no true cure. Vitality and death, contentedness and pain, disease and survival all coexist in Hemingway’s writing as one: life.

Critics Discuss
10 CRITICS DISCUSS “Big Two-Hearted River” (1925) Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) “I’m trying to do the country like Cézanne and having a hell of a time and sometimes getting it a little bit. It is about 100 pages long and nothing happens and the country is swell…isn’t writing a hard job though? It used to be easy before I met you….” [Letter to Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas, 15 August 1924] “It is much better than anything I’ve done. What I’ve been doing is trying to do country so you don’t remember the words after you read it but actually have the Country. It is hard because to do it you have to see the country all complete all the time you write and not just have a romantic feeling about it.” [Letter to Edward J. O’Brien, 12 September 1924] Ernest Hemingway Ernest Hemingway: Selected Letters, 1917-1961 Carlos Baker, ed. (Scribner’s 1981) “I went there [Musee du Luxembourg, Paris] nearly every day for the Cézannes and to see the Manets and the Monets and the other Impressionists that I had first come to know about in the Art Institute at Chicago. I was learning something from the painting of Cézanne that made writing simple true sentences far from enough to make the stories have the dimensions that I was trying to put in them. I was learning very much from him but I was not articulate enough to explain it to anyone.” Ernest Hemingway A Moveable Feast (Bantam 1964) 13 “Here the plot, or foreground of the plot, is simply a fishing trip in the northern peninsula of Michigan. -

A Moveable Feast is the novel through quantitative analysis. The focus will be upon one such work where Hemingway combines occasions of the conceptual metaphor, where meaning is derived from his interactions with some of the most vital twentieth everyday language and thought.Hunger can be seen as a positive creative force for Hemingway and he wishes to return to his century social figures with perceptions about the subtleties youthful days at Paris and revive the vivaciousness that was of his daily life. present in him.A list of food and drink items used by the author is identified and represented as a chart, depending upon its occurrence in the novel, against the various hunger forms identified to form a statistical analysis.

“Old Sport” Is Jay Gatsby's Way of Life: Familiarity, Snobbery, Ridicule
東洋大学人間科学総合研究所紀要 第21号(2019)27‐4327 “Old Sport” Is Jay Gatsby’s Way of Life: Familiarity, Snobbery, Ridicule, and Failure* Tomoyuki ASAKAWA** 1. Introduction F. Scott Fitzgerald gave Jay Gatsby certain characteristics in The Great Gatsby (1925). One of them is his “smile,” another is “old sport.”1 “[In] Gatsby, Fitzgerald made the smile a chief part of the character’s makeup. The smile becomes as synonymous with Gatsby as the use of ‘old sport’” (Dubose, 90n). Since Fitzgerald was aware of the importance of the phrase, he increased its usage in the narrative―it appeared only 4 times in the manuscript (Bruccoli, Introduction xxix-xxx), 38 times in the galleys, and 45 times in the published edition.2 His use of “old sport,” drastically increased through the revisions, contributes to making Gatsby conspicuous― “The ‘old sport’ phrase [. .] fixes Gatsby as precisely as his gorgeous pink rag of a suit” (Eble 90). Gatsby him- self uses “old sport” 42 times out of 45 uses. “Old sport” is not a mere term of address. It was originally an “early twentieth-century British upper-class slang term” (Randall III 191) and a sophisticated phrase used among students at Oxford in those days.3 Jay Gatsby, however, is neither an alumnus of Oxford nor a member of the upper class. Moreover, the inconsistency of the novel makes “old sport” more difficult to comprehend. In Gatsby, a person from a certain class does not necessarily exhibit behaviors, language, or a manner of speech suited to their class. The man whose “parents were shiftless and unsuccessful farm people” (Gatsby 76; henceforth GG ) in the Middle West does not act in tune with his origin. -
