  • Paul Adelstein Marvels About the Experience of Parenthood
    Paul Adelstein Marvels About the Experience of Parenthood By Shannon Seibert Private Practice and Scandal star Paul Adelstein will be starring as Aaron in the new movie Return to Zero, premiering on Saturday, May 17th at 8 p.m. EST on Lifetime. The movie explores the devastating experiences of a couple who loses a baby in the womb and also features Minnie Driver, Alfred Molina, Kathy Baker, and Connie Nielsen in other starring roles. Adelstein opened up to Celebrity Baby Scoop to talk about his experiences with the film and being a dad to his four-year-old daughter Josephine. Related Link: Samantha Harris Stays Strong for Family After Breast Cancer Diagnosis CBS: You star as Aaron in the Lifetime movie Return To Zero. Please tell us about your role and how you prepared for it. PA: “The film follows a couple and some of their extended family through the trauma of losing a child to stillbirth. I read the script and was struck by how subtly the relationship between Aaron and Maggie (Minnie Driver’s character) was rendered. Obviously, the subject matter is emotional and difficult, but it was really this relationship that is the center of the movie. With Sean Hanish’s (the writer/director) help, I tried to find out as much I could about Aaron before they lose the baby — his relationship with his father/business partner (Alfred Molina) and his wife — and then just the let the rest happen.” CBS: Did you pull from any of your experiences as a real-life dad to play the part? PA: “I did.

    PONTIFICIA UNIVERSIDAD CATÓLICA DEL ECUADOR FACULTAD DE CIENCIAS FILOSÓFICO–TEOLÓGICAS ESCUELA DE FILOSOFÍA TESIS PREVIA A LA OBTENCIÓN DEL TÍTULO DE MAGÍSTER EN FILOSOFÍA FILOSOFÍA DE PELÍCULA AUTOR: JUAN FERNANDO PONCE MARTÍNEZ DIRECTOR: DENNIS SCHUTIJSER DE GROOT drs. MA QUITO, 2015. Disfrutar de la magia del cine sin hacer de la imagen un dios ni del vértigo de imágenes, un paraíso. ¿Es la pantalla el fondo de la caverna o la barra de la taberna? ¿Podemos, o debemos, mirar con quién y dónde estamos, el horizonte de nuestro ir, la perspectiva de nuestro llegar? (Juan Ponce Martínez, noviembre de 2015) ii AGRADECIMIENTO ¡Gracias, Paty! ¡Gracias, Carolina! ¡Gracias, Luis Alejandro! Por su comprensiva paciencia, por su apoyo, por su ayuda; por sus comentarios y sugerencias, por nuestras conversaciones. Por el cariño que siempre han tenido para acoger a mi madre –cada minuto que le dediqué fructificó en especiales ideas para este trabajo–. A ustedes, para ustedes, por ustedes, siempre, con todo el amor que Dios me dé. iii RESUMEN Este trabajo pretende mostrar, valiéndose de diecisiete producciones audiovisuales a modo de ejemplo –y de alusiones a otras–, algunas posibilidades para acompañar con películas la enseñanza de la filosofía (o de ciertas disciplinas filosóficas, no específicas de carreras de Filosofía): qué ventajas tiene usar filmes con ese propósito, algunos problemas que dicho uso presenta y ciertas estrategias metodológicas que facilitan tal uso. Empieza con un recorrido por material bibliográfico que revela relaciones entre el cine –películas y producciones audiovisuales– y la filosofía, donde se establece una clasificación para tal relación, y termina con el ejemplo de tres cursos en los que se usaron películas, que está precedido por algunas consideraciones teóricas sobre la planificación de cursos –en particular, de bachillerato, mirando los planes y programas oficiales– en los que se usarán películas, sobre tal uso en las aulas, la evaluación y cuestiones relativas.

While pursuing her newest mark, Maddie meets a potential love interest, Patrick (Stephen Bishop, Being Mary Jane), which threatens to derail her assignment, much to the chagrin of her mysterious boss, The Doctor.

Every mother is a daughter. Intersecting stories come to life through photographer Rigby’s lens as she learns what it is to be a mom. SYNOPSIS High atop a building in Manhattan, hip and happy single gal, Rigby Gray, peeks into the apartments and lives of her neighbors… hiding safely behind her long camera lens... unaware her life is about to become changed forever. Rigby’s snapshots of people’s lives come to life in the intersecting stories of different mother and child relationships, in the colorful variety of shapes they can take. We learn about how sisters and strangers, roommates and lovers, and even nightmare mothers-in-law, can be the most loving of maternal figures. When an unlikely and unexpected pregnancy forces Rigby to turn the lens inward and watch the upheaval it’s reeking on her own life… a life she is reluctant to change… it is these stories that help with her own most important decision, and to embrace the exhilarating journey of new life as she learns what it is to be a mother, and a daughter to her own.

  • For Immediate Relesase February 5, 2009
    For Immediate Relesase February 5, 2009 SAVING LIVES: Why the Media’s Portrayal of Nurses Puts Us All at Risk (Kaplan Publishing, On sale: Feb. 3, 2009; Hardcover; $24.95) shows how the media perpetuates nursing stereotypes (the handmaiden, the naughty nurse, the angel and the battle-axe), presenting negative images that affect real nurses and their patients. These powerful images fuel the global nursing shortage—one of the world's most pressing public health crises—by weakening nurses’ claims to adequate resources for clinical practice, education and research. Although Showtime reportedly plans to introduce Nurse Jackie this summer, today, 41 out of 45 major characters on the top five U.S. health-related prime-time television shows are physicians (see attached list). The shows present physicians as the sole masters of health knowledge and the only important staff in hospitals. In fact, Hollywood physician characters often do exciting procedures that nurses would actually perform. Physician characters like House often disrespect nurses with no real contradiction. That fosters more social contempt and makes it seem like no person of substance or intellect would even think of becoming a nurse. SAVING LIVES presents irreverent analysis of everything from how health care news is reported, to Grey’s Anatomy’s handling of nurse characters, to how major advertising campaigns exploit nursing stereotypes. SAVING LIVES explains why these media depictions matter, and offers many practical ideas to help improve nursing’s media image and the profession of nursing generally. Sandy Summers, RN, MSN, MPH, is founder and Executive Director of The Truth About Nursing (www.truthaboutnursing.org).
