    Hannah Wells Designated Survivor

    Hannah wells designated survivor Continue © 2020 ABC Entertainment's Margaret quigley (Maggie) FBI Agent (previously terminated) Presidential Emissary CIA Analyst First Appearance Pilot #identity/crisis Hannah Wells was a former FBI agent who investigated the U.S. Capitol during the President of the Richmond State Of the Union Address. She was played by Maggie Kew. Under the leadership of Tom Kirkman, Hannah became the lead investigator in the case of the terrorist attack that killed everyone present in the Capitol (except Peter McLeish, as it was later discovered). During the events of the first season, Hannah was the one who eventually found that Peter McLeish, the survivor of the Capitol bombing, was hiding in a bomb shelter near the Capitol and that he was connected to the conspirators responsible. She also discovered the identity of another conspirator named Catalan. Eventually, she was able to expose the conspirators who called themselves true believers and thus led to their downfall. She was working on an investigation into the murder of Eric Little, who was bribed by Alex Kirkman's mother. Which in the end, Alex Kirkman won, but then died in a car accident. She was working on an investigation against Andrea Frost, whom she believed to be a hacker known as Gamin, who was responsible for hacking NASA, the Washington, D.C.-based power grid, the president of Kirkmans Tape Therapy, and other hacks, resulting in several deaths, including Damian Renneth. She publicly humiliated Andrea Frost, accusing her of doing so and sabotaging President Kirkman after the president told her to find concrete evidence, and Frost admitted in a private conversation at a cabinet hearing against Kirkmans' ability to remain in office.
  • Why Call Them "Cult Movies"? American Independent Filmmaking and the Counterculture in the 1960S Mark Shiel, University of Leicester, UK

    Why Call Them "Cult Movies"? American Independent Filmmaking and the Counterculture in the 1960S Mark Shiel, University of Leicester, UK

    Why Call them "Cult Movies"? American Independent Filmmaking and the Counterculture in the 1960s Mark Shiel, University of Leicester, UK Preface In response to the recent increased prominence of studies of "cult movies" in academic circles, this essay aims to question the critical usefulness of that term, indeed the very notion of "cult" as a way of talking about cultural practice in general. My intention is to inject a note of caution into that current discourse in Film Studies which valorizes and celebrates "cult movies" in particular, and "cult" in general, by arguing that "cult" is a negative symptom of, rather than a positive response to, the social, cultural, and cinematic conditions in which we live today. The essay consists of two parts: firstly, a general critique of recent "cult movies" criticism; and, secondly, a specific critique of the term "cult movies" as it is sometimes applied to 1960s American independent biker movies -- particularly films by Roger Corman such as The Wild Angels (1966) and The Trip (1967), by Richard Rush such as Hell's Angels on Wheels (1967), The Savage Seven, and Psych-Out (both 1968), and, most famously, Easy Rider (1969) directed by Dennis Hopper. Of course, no-one would want to suggest that it is not acceptable to be a "fan" of movies which have attracted the label "cult". But this essay begins from a position which assumes that the business of Film Studies should be to view films of all types as profoundly and positively "political", in the sense in which Fredric Jameson uses that adjective in his argument that all culture and every cultural object is most fruitfully and meaningfully understood as an articulation of the "political unconscious" of the social and historical context in which it originates, an understanding achieved through "the unmasking of cultural artifacts as socially symbolic acts" (Jameson, 1989: 20).
  • Cast Bios Lacey Chabert

    Cast Bios Lacey Chabert

    ‘FAMILY FOR CHRISTMAS’ CAST BIOS LACEY CHABERT (Hannah Dunbar/Hannah Matthews) – Lacey Chabert is regarded as one of the best young actresses of her generation. From an early age, she was exposed to dramatic and musical performances in and around her hometown of Purvis, Mississippi. Chabert received her first break in a cough syrup commercial before successfully auditioning for the Broadway production of Les Miserables, in which she played young Cosette for two years. In 1998, she made her feature film debut as Penny Robinson in “Lost in Space.” Chabert’s resume is as extensive as it is versatile. Consistently delivering memorable performances, she has become one of Hollywood’s most sought-after talents. Chabert is best known for her role as Claudia on the Golden Globe Award®-winning FOX television series “Party of Five,” and can currently be seen on ABC Family’s “Baby Daddy.” She has appeared on “All My Children” as well as in several made-for-TV movies, including “Gypsy” starring Bette Midler, “A Little Piece of Heaven” with Cloris Leachman, Lifetime’s “What If God Were The Sun?” starring opposite Gena Rowlands, and the Hallmark Channel Original Movies “All of My Heart” with Edward Asner, “Matchmaker Santa” opposite Florence Henderson, and “A Royal Christmas” alongside Jane Seymour and John Ratzenberger. Chabert also starred in the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Original “The Color of Rain,” which was the highest rated and most watched original film in the network’s history. Chabert’s feature film credits include Warner Brother’s “Ghosts of Girlfriend’s Past,” starring opposite Jennifer Garner and Matthew McConaughey, box office hit “Mean Girls,” for which she received outstanding reviews and an MTV Movie Award, “Daddy Day Care,” starring as Anjelica Huston’s daughter, and A&E’s “The Brooke Ellison Story,” playing the lead in Christopher Reeve’s final directorial project.

    August, 2005 Re: The Evolution of The Pilates Method: The Fletcher Work™ To Whom It May Concern, The Fletcher Work is the authentic evolution of the Pilates’ method. To be accurate and legitimate, any journalistic inquiry into contemporary Pilates must necessarily include this dynamic contribution. On behalf of The Ron Fletcher Company, I encourage you to take time to review the enclosed materials. Pilates is more than a contemporary fitness phenomenon. It is an extraordinarily effective conditioning method — nearly a century in development — whose time has finally come. Joseph Pilates’ original principles were absolutely sound, yet his wife, Clara, referred to her husband’s original work as “just the tip of the iceberg.” The development and evolution of the Pilates method over the last 35 years has been, in large part, the result of the work and vision of Ron Fletcher, their protégé and student for nearly three decades. Since Joseph PIlates’ death in 1968, no other individual has played a more pivotal role in the evolution and popularity of the Pilates method. Now in his eighties, Mr. Fletcher is one of only three such masters still teaching the Work. Should you have any questions regarding the enclosed information, or should you wish to pursue a related project, please do not hesitate to contact me. In addition to being one of the great luminaries of the Pilates world, Ron Fletcher is also very much alive, well and active… and he’s a great interview. Sincerely, Kyria Sabin encl The Ron Fletcher Company™ . POB 64971 . Tucson, AZ 85728-4971 . 520.323.7070 .
