    THE STRONGHOLD Directed by Cédric Jimenez INTERNATIONAL MARKETING INTERNATIONAL PUBLICITY Alba OHRESSER Margaux AUDOUIN [email protected] [email protected] 1 SYNOPSIS Marseille’s north suburbs hold the record of France’s highest crime rate. Greg, Yass and Antoine’s police brigade faces strong pressure from their bosses to improve their arrest and drug seizure stats. In this high-risk environment, where the law of the jungle reigns, it can often be hard to say who’s the hunter and who’s the prey. When assigned a high-profile operation, the team engages in a mission where moral and professional boundaries are pushed to their breaking point. 2 INTERVIEW WITH CEDRIC JIMENEZ What inspired you to make this film? In 2012, the scandal of the BAC [Anti-Crime Brigade] Nord affair broke out all over the press. It was difficult to escape it, especially for me being from Marseille. I Quickly became interested in it, especially since I know the northern neighbourhoods well having grown up there. There was such a media show that I felt the need to know what had happened. How far had these cops taken the law into their own hands? But for that, it was necessary to have access to the police and to the files. That was obviously impossible. When we decided to work together, me and Hugo [Sélignac], my producer, I always had this affair in mind. It was then that he said to me, “Wait, I know someone in Marseille who could introduce us to the real cops involved.” And that’s what happened.

  • By Gwyn Conger Steinbeck the Story
    For Immediate Release Lawson Publishing LTD. Discovered--GWYN CONGER STEINBECK. New book relates love and adventures of the "forgotten wife," muse to the Nobel Prizewinning author of American classics MY LIFE WITH JOHN STEINBECK: by Gwyn Conger Steinbeck The Story of John Steinbeck's Forgotten Wife Who was Gwyn Conger Steinbeck? Unlike Steinbeck's first and third wives, she's unmentioned in standard editions of classics, such as The Grapes of Wrath and Of Mice and Men. But that's about to change with the publication of MY LIFE WITH JOHN STEINBECK: by Gwyn Conger Steinbeck, The story of John Steibeck's Forgotten Wife. (Lawson Publishing Ltd. Sept. 6th.). The ms, lost since 1972, was recently discovered in Wales. The book includes her introduction, that of journalist Douglas G. Brown and the acclaimed John Steinbeck biographer, Jay Parini. The book reveals the missing voice of Gwyn, "the forgotten wife," mother of his two sons, during a 6-year marriage that included the tumult of World War 2.. When she met Steinbeck in 1939, Gwyn was a professional singer, working for RKO radio and CBS in L.A. She was an independent young woman, lively and radiant in her love for the great man wooing her--14 years her senior. He was impressed by her beauty and magnetic presence. For women of her era, many of whom had to leave jobs after the war, marriage was considered a woman's true career-- love was life. This journal is her story of that adventure, often "on the road" with a restless Steinbeck, criss-crossing continents and making homes.

The Plaintiffs have filed a motion for partial summary judgment in which they principally argue that the lyrics and melody in the first verse and its identical fifth verse (“Verse 1/5”) of the Song are not sufficiently original to qualify for copyright registration as a derivative work.1 For the reasons that follow, that portion of the Plaintiffs’ motion for summary judgment is granted.

Where the Past Begins: A Writer’s Memoir presents Amy Tan, a master of storytelling, offering unparalleled access into her writing process, her fascination with the neurology of creativity, and her exploration of the family histories that led to the creation of indelible characters in beloved works such as The Joy Luck Club and The Valley of Amazement. In these pages, we find hints of trauma in Tan’s past, relationships she has never discussed publicly, and a family mystery that was only solved accidentally, by stumbling on a box of old documents. In evocative descriptions and characteristic humor, this memoir offers us a vivid picture of the author’s childhood in Northern California, the world of her mother and grandmother in China, and her recent forays into plein air sketching. Amy explores how memories, the inspiration of music, and the beauty of the natural world mingle with enigmatic characteristics of the writer’s brain and imaginative capacities to create the magic of a story.

Terry Eagleton calls it an “anti-genre” that “cannibalizes other literary modes and mixes the bits and pieces promiscuously together” (1). And yet, perhaps because of its inability to be completely defined, the novel best represents modern thought and sensibility.

  • I1465 I SHOT ANDY WARHOL (USA, 1996) (Other Titles: Ho Sparato a Andy Warhol)
    I1465 I SHOT ANDY WARHOL (USA, 1996) (Other titles: Ho sparato a Andy Warhol) Credits: director, Mary Harron ; writers, Mary Harron, Daniel Minahan. Cast: Lili taylor, Jared Harris, Stephen Dorff, Martha Plimpton. Summary: Biographical melodrama set in 1960s New York City. A journey into the cultural whirlwind of events surrounding Valerie Solanas’ shooting of pop-art superstar Andy Warhol. Solanis (Taylor) arrived in mid-‘60s New York City with a single-minded mission: to spread the word on female superiority. While feverishly putting her radical ideas down on paper, she becomes a fringe member of the psychedelic entourage surrounding Andy Warhol (Harris). But when her feminist zeal grows too bizarre and violent, even for this avant-garde circle, the consequences are explosive. Includes passing references to the anti-Vietnam War movement.
