Stratford Festival Visitors’ Guide 2006 and Shaw
Festival 2006 arrived in my mail box mid December. Colourful,
attractive, with maps, references and photographs, it is hard even to say
getting better – because these brochures have been absolutely excellent for
years. Not only do they provide the theatrical schedule and notes on the
plays, but also the calendars, accommodations, restaurants and other
possible activities. Like additional concerts, meetings with the actors or
producers, presentations of behind-the-scene theatrical activities, special
weekend packages - all possible reasons why one would take a whole weekend
or for that matter several weekends to attend the plays and enjoy the towns.
The graphic side of the guides is excellent and somehow one does not feel
overwhelmed with advertising.
Stratford Festival of Canada – 2006
Richard Monette, the Artistic Director of the Festival, is not falling short in his selection which totals 15 plays: the four Shakespeare plays are Coriolanus, with Colm Feore in the title role, Henry IV Part 1, with James Blendick, two comedies Twelfth Night and Much Ado About Nothing. The best known heavy classics have been staged in recent years, so the coming season provides an opportunity to see less popular works. I vaguely remember Coriolanus from years ago and recommend it as a change from British genre. Although it seems the Roman history could be equally bloody and the rulers equally vindictive.
Some other classics are The Duchess of Malfi by John Webster, rarely staged and not appreciated as it should be, Don Juan by Moliere – with Colm Feore again and being offered in English plus several performances in French. This is an interesting alternative for real connoisseurs or special for the francophone tourists.
This summer’s musical is South Pacific by Rogers and Hammerstein with Cynthia Dale in the leading role. Some of us can recall it as a Hollywood movie from a long time ago. And I hold a great deal of trust in the staging and an orchestral capability of the Festival. It was time to refresh it! For the family entertainment the Festival is presenting Oliver! based on the Dickens’ novel.
Which leaves us with a choice of less traditional plays: Tennessee Williams’ The Glass Menagerie – one should see it at least once in a lifetime, I have seen it possibly three times and every time come out with a different impression as to what the director wanted to achieve.
It is the 100-year anniversary of the death of Henrik Ibsen, so a number of theatres are producing his plays: in Stratford it is Ghosts, one of his murky works. At the smaller and more intimate Studio Theatre, an interesting twist on Shakespeare’s Othello is Harlem Duet, a story of Othello’s first wife being abandoned for a white Mona. It is a story of betrayal personal, cultural and political and it looks very interesting. The second performance at The Studio is Fanny Kemble, a play about the 19th century Shakespearian actress, a passionate abolitionist. It has been commissioned by the Stratford Festival for the Festival, and is a world premiere.
Which leaves us with several lighter fare to consider: London Assurance with Brian Bedford and James Blendick, The Blonde, the Brunette and the Vengeful Redhead, an Australian one-actress play and finally The Liar by Pierre Corneille. These are guaranteed pure entertainment.
It is the season very much to look forward to. The
Stratford Festival Visitor’s Guide 2006 lists other attractions, the
musical evenings, university courses, and meetings with writers, pre-theatre
gatherings and tours, and all other attractions, restaurants, B&B and
shopping. Box office number is 1-800-567-1600 and web side
earlier you book the better chance to get the seat you want.
Shaw Festival 2006
Niagara-on-the-Lake is settling with Jackie Maxwell as the Artistic Director and the program is a bit more cohesive. Again there are 10 plays to choose from: from the Shaw’s collection Arms and The Man and Too True To Be Good, both comedies, both wonderful classics in costume and design. One may attend a variety of theatres and never see them, so this is a good opportunity to enjoy them.
Some other plays from the era are The Heiress by Ruth Goetz, set in the 1850’s, The Magic Fire – a drama inside a comedy set in the steamy Buenos Aires in the middle of Eva Peron’s time, and a musical by Cole Porter High Society,
another comedy with charm and style, costumes and memorable musical tunes.
Several light comedies this coming season are: Anton Chekhov’s Love Among the Russians (it is not a serious depressing Chekhov but vaudeville for a change!), and Design for Living by Noel Coward directed by Morris Panych, some kind of love triangle, I understand. The Invisible Man adapted from H.G.Wells novel will be a guaranteed hit, and a very interesting challenge for a designer. I am really looking forward to it!
The gesture towards more serious plays are: The Crucible directed by Tadeusz Bradecki, selected many times by student theatres for the sake of historical debates, and in tribute to Ibsen’s anniversary Rosmersholm, which is another gloomy complex play, with a limited cast and a shocking conclusion.
Altogether, this is an excellent combination of plays from Shaw and his times, some comedies, some classics, some new. Evenings or the weekends at Niagara-on-the-Lake have always been something to plan and look forward to,
And it’s an easy drive from Toronto, Hamilton or Kitchener-Waterloo area.
Shaw Festival 2006 Guide can be obtained by calling Shaw Festival Box Office at 1-800-511-7429 or through the website www.shawfest.com. In the past I have found the local Chamber of Commerce to be very helpful in recommending and assuring the reservations be it the Bed & Breakfast variety or the local hotels. The telephone number is 1-888-619-5981 or www.niagaraonthelake.com.
Rest assured I will be writing about the plays I plan to attend and will keep you posted about other interesting cultural events in K-W and beyond.
Happy New Year!

- Jayd Johnson, David Morrrissey and Katherine Kelly in the BBC One 1980s set newspaper drama The Field of Blood
For all its flaws I thoroughly enjoyed the gritty Glasgow newspaper set TV drama The Field of Blood. It may have had some excruciating dialogue and a pulp-fiction plot but it was set in the early 1980s in a world that I instantly recognised. I spent much of the 70s and 80s working in newspaper offices just like the one portrayed on-screen as The Glasgow Daily News. When I first stepped into a newspaper office 42 years ago ( I can’t quite believe it either!) I entered a smoke-filled, booze-fuelled environment populated by a splendid assortment of grizzled old newsmen and keen young hacks.


Sometimes I feel like we are really the luckiest people in the whole world. About 6 months ago, we found out that Wicked was coming to town - and that my sister was going to be able to get tickets through someone she works with. So, after looking forward to this for such a long time (the 6 months we had the tickets plus the years of singing along to the music before that), it was kind of a surreal experience. I was a little worried it would be a letdown because I had heard so much hype for so long - but it was everything people promised it to be. The cast was amazing and the story was even better than I imagined. The girl who played Elphaba was actually young Cosette in the original Les Miserables cast, which was pretty cool for me, since I love that play as well! Anyway, here are a few photos of our adventure. Thanks Abby and Mom! I can't wait to go again someday.

Shrek the Musical is back!

First premiered in 2008, the Broadway spectacle soon found critical acclaim, receiving eight Tony nominations and an award for Best Costume Design. The West End production also bagged four nominations at the Oliver Awards.
From over four hundred performances in its initial 12-month Broadway run, Shrek The Musical proved to be a hit. Later on, they produced succeeding tours and even crossed borders, staging national tours in the UK, Ireland, and Australia. Several other international productions were also held, including Germany, Argentina, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, and so forth.
"Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek...." Then began the life-changing tale of adventure, where the unexpected hero in the form of an ogre embarks on an adventure with a Donkey and a princess who was oblivious to his rescue.

With lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire and music by Jeanine Tesori, the show's 2024 run will definitely deliver shows that will send audiences in awe.
"Although Shrek stems from the 2001 DreamWorks film, it is genuinely theatrical, generous-spirited and mercifully free of the sensory bombardment that afflicts some of its rivals," The Guardian shared in its review of Shrek's 2011 show.
"Shrek has been a vaguely counter-cultural mainstream hit since the 2001 DreamWorks animated film (based on a 1990 book) and this touring production of the musical version is an absolute treat," Everything Theatre shared in their review of a September 2023 show.
With thousands of seats up for grabs at the Arizona Financial Theatre, get ready to hear a bunch of laughs and cheers as Shrek The Musical delivers an astounding night of adventure with an iconic ogre and Donkey. Don't miss out by booking your tickets now.


Groucho and the Marx Brothers (Goodtimes, 1988).This collection of Marx Brothers ephemera is mildly interesting, more so if you're a Marx Brothers fan. It consists mostly of trailers from their movies, most of which are quite amusing. There's also a short clip from a newsreel featurette about a mini car race between Groucho, Harpo, and Jackie Coogan, a clip from a filmed wartime radio broadcast to the Marines featuring Groucho, and the complete, uncut 1949 tv pilot of Groucho's game show "You Bet Your Life" (reviewed seperately under "Early Film & TV").
- In the trailer for The Big Store, the Marx Brothers announce their retirement from motion pictures and state that The Big Store is their "first farewell picture". Fortunately, they are persuaded not to retire by a stock footage crowd of screaming fans.
- At the Circus features a "Colossal Congress of Stuff and Things!"
- The trailer for Monkey Business is priceless. It features all four Marx Brothers auditioning for a producer, speaking entirely in rhyme (Harpo has a rhyming business card), and each doing a bad impression of Maurice Chevalier. And that's before things become totally chaotic!

Shooting by gas light lantern can be challenging, but it’s just part of the job some times. Our local Shakespearean troupe, The Baron’s Men, performs in a theater lit (mostly) by gas lights. This was one of the first production where they had added a couple of flame colored electric fill lights. Everything was tuned to match the gas lights. This night, they were performing Much Ado About Nothing.
Audience and Ambiance
One of the fun (and difficult) things for me as a photographer was to capture the ambiance of the performance. Plays include the audience. They aren’t like a movie projected out and passively received. Seeing a play like this in a tiny theater is an intimate experience. The audience’s reactions feed back into the actors performances.
The stage is dim enough during this type of performance, but the audience is even darker. Beyond simple capturing something, the goal is always to capture a great moment during the action. Luckily, the Curtain Theater is in-the-round so the audience can be seen behind the actors from either wing. There was just enough light from the gas lanterns to make the audience visible.
In many ways, photographing the actors on stage is much easier. I picked a location and waited for a good moment, then quietly moved elsewhere.
Why black and white? The choice to create black and white images in some situations is simple. Black and white images are cleaner since they use tree times the data to produce a monochrome image. In a low light situation like this, digital noise, even on the most modern professional camera, is significant.
Of course, with digital, the decision is made after the fact. We almost always shoot RAW, capturing all the information the camera can. In this case, the light was very blue-green deficient (i.e. it was all orange). Some photos just felt better in black and white so I went with it.
After the play, the actors gathered for quick character heat shots.
This theater photography for The Baron’s Men is part of AzulOx’s ongoing ProBono work to support the arts around Austin.

Ran into my first major obstacle, other than getting the camera. That is making the cast’s schedules work together. So the shoot won’t happen until January sometime, probably not till the second half.
I’m out of town next weekend, then I’ve got a photo shoot New Years weekend and others in the cast are busy. Then I’m taking my CHL test on weekend of the 7th. Then I’m going to MacWorld and won’t be able to shoot on the weekend of the 14th – my Bday. So the soonest possibility is the weekend after that. And I know at least one of my cast members starts up school about that same time.
I’m sure something will work out.
Last night I did a number of things related to the movie.
The big thing was I started story boarding. When I did my shot list I wasn’t going to storyboard. But when I ended up having till New Years to start shooting I decided I had time for a little more detail. I found a PDF online that has 6 panels and I now have five pages of storyboards. This is what I consider the middle of the movie. One things I didn’t do was storyboard each shot when two characters are talking to each other and it will be back and forth. Don’t know if I should do that or not.
I also watched the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode The Wish, where Cordilia wishes Buffy out of Sunnydale. Why is this related to the movie? Because one of my characters I think of as a lot like Willow when she was a vampire in this episode. Having watched it I still like the sadistic, creepy vibe, though she moved a lot slower in this episode than I think of Lovergirl moving. We’ll see.
Made some progress this weekend on the movie. I sent out the new draft to cast, though I haven’t heard back from them. At lunch on Friday I went through the script and highlighted the props. Then Saturday I entered them all into VoodooPad, so I have a complete prop list.
Sunday I got back to working and wrote out my shot list. There are 84 shots listed, including optional ones. This isn’t the full number because a couple are repeated in the beginning and ending sequence, but not listed again. But under 100 shots.
A note/thought on shooting ratios. I always thought this was how many mistakes do you make. If you have to shoot a shot multiple times because actors flub the line, or someone walks across the background or the sound gets screwed up. But while writing my shot list I also noticed you sometimes plan to shoot more than one shot of a scene. Like I’m shooting a couple of scenes wide and then shooting medium shots and then close ups. So for somethings I’m planning a 3 to one ratio. It will be interesting to see what my ratio ends up being based on time.
I found a couple of places in Austin that rent the Sony HDV-FX1 and sent them email this morning about how shipping time effects rental time. My biggest expense will probably be the camera rental, but I really want to shoot this in HD.
To day I went to talk to a co-worker that I knew was a musician about scoring the film. He said he could probably do it and even offered to come out a record sound with his sound board. I’m not sure I need that, but it would be interesting.
I also looked at microphones this weekend and decided I’ll probably by 2 lavaliere mics from Radio Shack to record all the dialog. Not sure what I’ll use for the other sounds, but that will be recorded in post.
All in all good progress. Right now I’m thinking I’ll either shoot this weekend, or New Years weekend.

In addition to going to the Apple Store and looking at software and cameras, I also went to the book store and bought “The Guerilla Film Makers Movie Blueprint” by Chris Jones, Jonathan Newman, Cara Williams. Then I came home and decided to go through the script and adding more shot and acting direction. I ended up doing a full rewrite. I added a lot more specific shots.
I took out a “hidden” scene to lower the locations. I had a scene where one of the character walks up to the front of a house, checks the mail, walks in the front door, goes into the kitchen, gets something out of the refrigerator, reads mail, gets jumped from behind. I changed it to person comes to front door, opens door, gets jumped from behind. No interior scene at all. No mail box. Tighter.
There are a number of other smaller changes that will make shooting simpler without messing with the story. I put some of the character’s motivation in the script for the actors. Described more in depth what the characters look like and dress like.
I also exported the script out of Final Draft demo into RTF, then into Word. Took quite a bit of formating fixing, but all the style information was there in the RTF. I just didn’t plan on spending $250 for Final Draft. I’m going to make a generic script stationary for Word at some point to user for future scripts.
Not what I had planned to do last night, but a lot of really good progress. I’ll do the break down tonight or tommorrow. I also plan on confirming two of my leads tommorrow and maybe recruiting another character. If I do that and hear back on CAR GUY, I’ll have my whole cast.
Hopefully by the end of the weekend I’ll also have a shooting schedule made up and agreed on by the cast.

A new obsession.
Just when my photography was getting to the point I felt I was pretty good, I got Robert Rodriguez’s book “Rebel Without a Crew: Or How a 23-Year-Old Filmmaker With $7,000 Became a Hollywood Player”.
We were in Disney at the Virgin Megastore. They had a whole aisle of filmmaking books. I’d ordered Rodriquez’s movie “Once Upon a Time in Mexico” when I ordered the new “Office Space and the “Buffy the Vampire Slayer – The Chosen Collection”, just so I could get the 10 minute flick school extra feature. So I was already trending back to filmmaking. But after reading the book I was totally inspired.
I was looking around thinking in terms of movies all weekend. At one point I thought about remaking a very cheesy comic/action short I made in college called The Great Video Caper. It was shot on video and edited between two VCRs. For a high school reunion a couple of years ago I “remastered” it using iMovie. It was seriously cheesy. As I was thinking about it though I started coming up with a new darker slant on the story. I was planning each shot in my head. Sunday night I downloaded the demo of Final Cut and wrote the whole 18 page script in a day. I’ve cast the villainous woman and hopefully my friends will take on their pervious roles. I’m one cast member short.
I plan on shooting it over the Christmas holidays. I really want to shot it on hi-def and am in total lust over the Sony HDR-FX1. Renting a pro level camera would cost $100-$300 a day. New this camera cost $3000.
I’ve pretty much decided I’m going to shoot a feature film next year. I’m too late to submit my short to Houston’s WorldFest film contest and too late for SXSW. So it will be next year. And if I’ve got a year, I might as well do a couple of shorts and a feature.
Stay tuned for updates.

Valley of the Rats is Brivido Giallo’s third film, the company having previously produced the films REVERSED and the multi award-winning GLASS, all three of these films are held firmly in the stylings of the visually dazzling European horror-mystery thrillers of the 1970s while broadening modern artistic exploration in this genre.
Awards & Nominations
In January 2018, Valley of the Rats garnered the #13 spot in Film Bizarro’s “Top 30 of 2017”

“Valley of the Rats” tells the story of a young man accused of his ex-girlfriend’s murder. Before he’s formally charged by the police, he sets out on a two-day odyssey to find the real killer – tracking down his leads from the backseat of a rented limousine; which allows him to converse and ponder class society, life in the city, and contemplate the dirt that runs in the small nooks and valleys of cosmopolitan life. Two-thirds of the way through this wildly kinetic film, the style switches to Brivido Giallo’s contemporary, wordless, operatic imagery of sex and violence that will close out a loose trilogy of new gialli films.
Release date: 2016-2017 CAN/US Film Festivals, Theatrical. 2017-2018 Canadian DVD/Blu-ray.


I'm glad they decided to stick to the script on this one. From the looks of the trailer it is going to be pretty good. The little girl really favors the original girl that played Carol Anne in the 1982 version.
The only thing I didn't like was that the old lady (Zelda Rubinstein) has been replaced by Jarred Harris. Nothing against him but that lady looked creepy as hell standing 4'3" tall with her tiny soft voice.
Honestly I'm getting creeped out just thinking about it. Also the clown was way creepier in the original too, but now I'm just being picky. If you haven't seen the original it is a must see. Can't wait to check this out this summer.

The Ghost In The Graveyard Full Movie Download In Hindi Extra Quality
In the fifth story, an elderly man named John Rodrigues is standing at a graveyard. A young man in sunglasses, Amar, drives by and offers John a lift. Amar inquires about John's visit at the graveyard. From John's reply, he assumes that the former might be widowed and so he might have come to visit his wife's grave. However, John says that it is actually he who is dead. Amar dismisses it as a joke. As the conversation progresses, Amar is increasingly exasperated with John's creepy behaviour. Amar halts the car, gets out and demands John to leave. John confesses that he works for MTV Bakra (a program similar to Punk'd) and Amar is the first person not to get scared by his prank. Amar says that he was not scared because he knew beforehand that John was not a ghost. He says that he knew this because he himself is a ghost. John thinks that Amar is now trying to play a prank to get back at him, but Amar takes off his sunglasses, revealing his pitch black eyes, before suddenly vanishing. John dies upon witnessing this.
the Ghost in the Graveyard full movie download in hindi
Not long after the first visit, the Ghost of Christmas Present (Willie the Giant) arrives, surrounded by turkey, mince pies, suckling pigs and other delicious foods. He shows him the poverty-stricken Cratchit family, who still keep a festive attitude in their home despite their hardships. Bob's young son Tiny Tim (Morty Fieldmouse) is revealed to be ill and Willie foretells tragedy if the family's hapless life does not change. However, just when Scrooge is desperate to know Tim's fate, the Ghost of Christmas Present and the house both vanish. The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come (a hooded figure later revealed to be Pete) takes Scrooge to the future in a graveyard. When he sees Bob mourning for Tiny Tim, who has passed away (indicated by Bob placing Tim's crutch on his tombstone), Scrooge fearfully asks whether or not this future can be altered.
However, famed movie critics Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert of At the Movies gave it "two thumbs down". Siskel felt there wasn't enough emphasis on Mickey's character and that it didn't rank with most of Disney's full-length animated features. Ebert stated that it lacked the magic of visual animation that the "Disney people are famous for" and that it was a "forced march" through the Charles Dickens story without any ironic spin.

Marvel Studios changed the post-credit scene from the latest episode of Scarlet Witch and Vision (WandaVision) on Disney +. As we told you in his time, episode 9 of the series had a final scene after the credits where we could glimpse a very determined future for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Now, this scene is different and it generated controversy within the community.
Then this news will relate to sensitive content to be considered a spoiler or a spoiler of the plot.

- Scarlet Witch and Vision (Wandavision), will it have a second season?
- Why is it called Scarlet Witch and Vision in Spain and not Wandavision?
Possible relationship with Doctor Strange? A suspicious silhouette
Then, What has changed in the post-credit scene at WandaVision? Matt Shakman’s series has always been linked to Doctor strange by the parallels and the way in which the character of Wanda Maximoff grows. In the initial post-credit scene, we saw a landscape in the distance without anything apparently noticeable; corn now we see a silhouette coming down from this mountain.
From there, many questions and few answers. Fans speculate on Reddit that it may be the figure of Doctor Strange; especially when the next one March 22, 2022 will come out Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. We invite you to check out the full schedule of Marvel Cinematic Universe movie releases in this article.
But there is more. There’s another change to this new post-credit scene from WandaVision. There is more vegetation. Where before we saw trees, there is now a greater density of them and with a more accentuated color. The color gamut has changed slightly. Finally, it should be noted that it now appears Michel Giacchino in the credits, which is none other than the composer of the main theme of the film Doctor Strange (2016).
Marvel’s future, after WandaVision, Falcon and The Winter Soldier and Loki, go through films like Black Widow on July 9, Sang-Chi and the Legends of the Ten Rings on September 3, Eternals on November 5, and Spider-Man 3 on December 17.

The Progeny: The Legacy of Jude Mooney
The sins of the father . . . Prohibition has ended, and Jude Mooney is trying to establish himself as an honest businessman. However, his sons are exiles, having fled New Orleans for Ireland after becoming entangled in their father’s illegal activities. Daniel finds burning passion in the arms of the fiery Grace, and Paul learns the joys of the flesh with yet another Irish beauty. Inspired by these fiercely nationalist women, the Mooney brothers join the fight for a united Ireland, acting as snipers and embarking upon clandestine bombing operations. A series of catastrophic blunders then send Daniel and Paul to England where they join with the enemy they once fought against, hoping to defeat Hitler as he marches throughout Europe. Both Mooney sons eventually infiltrate the Nazi machine at the highest level when they enter the clandestine world of espionage. In New Orleans, Jude faces his own personal battle as he and his young wife drift apart when she betrays him. And, as much as Jude wants to escape the criminal life that lured him in, he and his brother-in-law Pete cannot completely break free of the powerful Matranga family.As America enters the war, not one member of Jude’s family will remain untouched as his brave niece Julia joins the military as a nurse. Nephews Wally and Peppy Saluto also enter the fray in Asia and Europe. Each family member encounters danger and romance as they face the war machine. This sweeping saga follows the Mooney clan from New Orleans to Europe and then to Asia. Not all will live. All will be scarred as they do what they must to save themselves.


On our campus tour we like to advertise that the movie screenings in McConomy Auditorium, in our University Center, are the cheapest date you will probably ever have. With $1 admission(with your student ID) and 50 cent popcorn(if you are lucky)---a movie in McConomy is a safe and easy date night when you do not want to venture too far off campus. Our student activities board puts on movies four days a week, Thursday through Sunday nights, which range from foreign films and cult classics to movies that have just been released from theaters but not yet on DVD.
On Sunday night, I did exactly that and went to see a showing of The Room. For those of you who have never heard of The Room, it is the best worst film ever made. You can view the a video clip of a scene here if you do not believe me:
The best part of The Room is that it is so bad that it becomes funny. Typical unruley movie behavior such as throwing spoons and yelling at the screen are actually encouraged and the screening of the film becomes a production in itself. Furthermore, as if things could not get better, the director, Tommy Wiseau, watched the screening with all of the students and stayed for a Q&A session after the movie. Tommy was completely out of this world. His answers to students' questions ranged from insulting the individual students to philisophical and broad statements. He even complemented one female student on her legs and told the audience that was how all women should be. Luckily CMU students have a good sense of humor!
After all of the shenanigans ended, I jumped on a bus and took a five minute ride into Squirrel Hill to Murray Avenue. I stopped in Razzy Fresh, a frozen yogurt place, for a quick late night treat. Razzy Fresh first opened last Spring and has been a big hit with college students ever since. They have a self-serve frozen yogurt bar with a plethora of toppings to choose from. My personal favorite is raspberry frozen yogurt with fresh strawberries, granola and cheesecake bites--yum! I especially love Razzy Fresh because it is a nice reminder of one of my favorite places at home--Pinkberry!! Regardless as to why I love it or why countless CMU students love it, it is a HUGE hit and a great place to check out if you are in the Pittsburgh area.
This past weekend was Homecoming, which meant that there were many events on campus for both current students and alumni. Two of my favorite events of the weekend were Scotch'n'Soda's performance of The Rocky Horror Show and our annual Bhangra competition, Bhangra in the Burgh 4. I took this weekend as a time to relax and attend these two highly anticipated shows.
Scotch'n'Soda's performance of The Rocky Horror Show was both entertaining and unexpected. I had never seen the Rocky Horror Show prior to this weekend, and let me tell you, it is definitely a must see show. Scotch'n'Soda's version was littered with all the classic nuances like dramatic costumes(or lack there of), creative set design, a Time Warp dance party and my personal favorite, audience participation. If you have not seen the Rocky Horror Show, I encourage you to rent it on DVD, attend a midnight showing or hope that your local theatre troupe is putting on a show. There is never a dull moment at the late night early morning double feature rocky horror picture show.
Bhangra in the Burgh 4
was another amazing show. Bhangra is a style of traditional Indian folk
dance. Each year, students from Carnegie Mellon host a Bhangra
competition, displaying some of the best collegiate Bhangra teams in the country. The show also included some exhibition acts from Carnegie Mellon and University of Pittsburgh. It is always a lot of fun to see students display their talents. In fact, one of our very own tour guides is on Carnegie Mellon's Bhangra team--how cool!

When it comes to well-written books, movie adaptations simply cannot compare to the depth of tens of thousands of words on hundreds of pages.
If there’s a book I am interested in reading, like “The Help,” I will not watch the film prior to reading for a simple reason; it removes the personal interpretation from the book.
Creating images of the characters and settings in my head is part of the experience of reading. I’d much prefer that over imagining the actors and manufactured settings.
At least at the pace I read, books are a much deeper commitment than a two-hour movie. Things which are simply provided for moviegoers are slowly discovered when reading books.
When comparing a book with a film, the latter just skims the surface of what readers know. The most recent example of this for me was “The Hunger Games.” I got the feeling that moviegoers were being cheated out of a connection to the characters and story.
After reading the book (twice), I saw how many memorable things were missing from the movie. Film adaptations often seemed stripped of emotion and replaced with action.
While it’s understandable that most viewers do not want to sit and listen to characters’ thoughts, they often reveal character motives. In turn, these motives often drive the plot of stories. Character thought fills many book pages, but is difficult to portray in films without getting too wordy.
“The Hunger Games” book was full of tension, personality and pain, and much of that was not portrayed in the film. The cast was chosen perfectly, but even that could not make the film live up to the emotion and suspense of the book.
The quality of movie adaptations varies across a wide spectrum. There are the exceptional adaptations, like “A Clockwork Orange” or “Forrest Gump.” There are some that match the level of the book; “Twilight” comes to mind.
Then, there are movies like “My Sister’s Keeper” that absolutely ruin the print version, removing the details that make a story what it is.
I do not want to spoil the ending for those interested in reading the book. But I will say the film does a better job than I could imagine of destroying an honest tear-jerker.
If an author is involved with the screenplay, actively picking out the vital parts and weeding out the unnecessary ones, it’s a promising sign. No one knows a story better than the one person who put all of their energy into it.
Readers will always go into film adaptations with high expectations, but it should not be assumed a movie will be identical to the book without it lasting several hours.
At the same time, movie producers should not change the story so drastically it’s unrecognizable without changing its title.


Jennifer Hudson has had a big week.
The actress, best known for her roles as the sexy, uptight Sarah Palin in Sarah Palin: The Rise and Fall of a Tea Party Star, has been nominated for an Emmy Award for her portrayal of Dr. Elizabeth Weir in Showtime’s The Real O’Neals.
Hudson will also be honored at a gala event on Friday, the evening of the Emmy Awards, at the Beverly Hilton.
Huda has been an outspoken supporter of the Emmys, as well as for President Donald Trump.
She was nominated for her role in the third season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, which premiered in May.
Hudi has been honored with an honorary doctorate from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts.
She is the first black person to be awarded that honor, and the first woman to be recognized for her work in television.
For the Emmy gala, Hudson will be sharing her new Netflix series, How to Get Away with Murder, about the trials and tribulations of a woman who can’t escape her own past.
Hudsons new Netflix show will debut in March.
It will focus on the life of a young girl who was kidnapped and tortured by her stepfather, played by Ben Simmons.


Pablo Giorgelli is a new Argentinean talent, a film director whose first feature production Las Acacias has won a clutch of European film awards as well as a noteworthy amount of critical acclaim. Not bad for a first try. Even better considering that Giorgelli was unemployed before the creation of the film, struggling against the fierce Argentinean economic downturn, with a sick father and a difficult divorce on his hands.
It sounds, considering the circumstances, like the film’s arrival was more a battle of will than a creative process. Las Acacias tells the story of Ruben (Germán de Silva), a gruff and grumpy long distance truck driver, who has been told by his boss to pick up a passenger along the road from Asunción del Paraguay to Buenos Aires. There of course turns out to be two passengers, a woman, the sweet natured and sensitive Jacinta (Hebe Duarte) and her five month old baby, Anahi. Ruben, given his solitary nature, is more than a little aggrieved that he has to give up the quiet serenity of his lorry cab to the crying wails of a five month old and an excitable young mother, but he does so, begrudgingly.


Home for the Holidays (1995)
Directed by Jodie Foster
Starring Holly Hunter, Robert Downey Jr, Claire Danes, Anne Bancroft, Charles Durning, Sylan McDermott, Cynthia Stevenson, Steve Guttenberg, Geraldine Chaplin
“When you go home, do you wonder: Who are these people?”
“On the fourth Thursday in November, 84 million American families will gather together... And wonder why.”
“We'll do it every year..until we get it right”
The plot of this movie could be scripted by Hallmark, with the exception that in 1995 Hallmark did not feature a lot of LGBTQ+ characters in their films. It is the story of Claudia (Hunter), who gets fired from her job, makes out with her elderly boss, catches a cold, and finds out that her 18-year-old daughter (Danes) is planning to have sex with her boyfriend on the day she is scheduled to fly home to celebrate Thanksgiving with her parents Adele and Henry (Bancroft, Durning) and sister’s Joanne’s family (Stevenson, Guttenberg). Her brother Tommy (Downey, Jr.) is not supposed to be there, opting to spend the day with his husband and their chosen family. After he gets a panicked phone call from Claudia, he opts to show up to support her bringing his friend Leo with him.
Much of the movie is as you would expect, moments filled with family drama. However, there is a deeper commentary that comes through because of Joanne’s homophobia, fat-shaming, and judgmental attitude. At the table, she attacks him and announces to the family that he has embarrassed them all by marrying his partner Jack on a beach where people could see them. “I have friends in Boston, Tommy. Did you ever think about that? There are other people in this world. People who tell people. I mean, how embarrassing,” she tells him. However, unlike other movies at the time, instead of supporting her views his parents and sister Claudia all make it clear that they support him. It is hard not to cheer when Joanne’s new dress ends up covered with Thanksgiving food, causing her to stomp out and rush home to exercise, “the only part of her day she enjoys.”
The movie ends the next day, as Tommy and Claudia head home. Claudia gets a surprise when her brother’s friend Leo (McDermott) is on the plane, wanting to pursue their new attraction for each other.
The film has a 64% fresh critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes by critics and a 72% audience rating.
Here are a few of the best lines:
“I'm giving thanks that we don't have to go through this for another year. Except we do, because those bastards went and put Christmas right in the middle, just to punish us.” (Adele)
“Enough! You're a pain in my ass. You have bad hair. But I like you a lot.” (Tommy to his mother)
“When you go home, do you look around and wonder, "Who are these people, where did I even come from?" I mean, you look at them all, sitting there, you know... they look familiar, but who the hell are they?” (Claudia)
Robert Downey, Jr. admitted that he used cocaine while filming. He later reported that director Jodie Foster gave him a pass but told him he couldn’t keep it up in future films. He would go to prison for drug possession in 1999, after he was fired from the TV show Ally McBeal.
This was second movie in 1995 that featured Anne Bancroft and Claire Danes. The other was How to Make an American Quilt where they played the same character at different ages in life. They do not share a single scene in either movie.
In 1992, Downey, Jr. played the title role in the biopic Chaplin. In this film, Charlie Chaplin’s daughter Geraldine is cast as his aunt.
The film was a pleasant couple of hours, if for no other reason than to see the wall of phone banks at the airport and a glimpse back into what life was like in 1995.
Trivia and quotes taken from IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes.

Charlie Savoy was once Hollywood’s hottest A-lister. Now, ten years later, the former ingenue is pushing forty, exiled from the film world and reluctantly back at the summer Shakespeare theater that launched her career—and where her old flame, Nick, is the artistic director.
It’s not exactly her first choice. But as parts are cast and rehearsals begin, Charlie is surprised to find herself getting her groove back, bonding with celebrity actors, forging unexpected new friendships and even reigniting her spark with Nick, who still seems to bring out the best in her despite their complicated history.
Until Charlie’s old rival, Hollywood’s current It Girl, is brought in to attract theater donors, threatening to undo everything Charlie’s built. As the drama amps up both on the stage and behind the curtain, Charlie must put on the show of a lifetime to fight for the second chance she deserves in her career and in love.
The Summer Set Playlist:
“With the drama and humor of a Shakespearean play, Agresti’s novel is filled with backstage antics, on-stage tantrums, behind the scenes scandals, and off-stage romance, all in the crazy, fast-paced world of summer stock theater. Sparks fly and opposites attract as The Summer Set explores the blurred line between playing a part and being true to yourself.”
—Amy Poeppel, author of Small Admissions
“Aimee Agresti’s spectacular love story, The Summer Set, is a juicy and original page-turner. Agresti captivates with her razor-sharp writing, keen eye for detail and emotional depth of characters. Despite all the drama that goes down behind the curtain, the show must go on, and it does, with all the feels. Leading Lady Charlie Savoy at 39 (considered a “Grandma” in Acting Years) is actually (finally) having her coming-of-age moment, and Agresti as her director deserves a standing ovation.”
—Lisa Barr, author of The Unbreakables
“A page-turner set in the intoxicating theater world, The Summer Set considers the price of fame, the power of second chances and the enduring nature of love. Agresti has drawn characters that feel unique and original, but still familiar enough that we can relate to their struggles. A truly enjoyable read!”
—Elyssa Friedland, author of The Floating Feldmans


This is still a work in progress, firstly I haven't got the game mechanics right yet and secondly it's full of copyrighted images. So apologies for not putting this one up for a full download.
The premise of the game is you go around a board collecting cards. You need a full set of cards: concept, actors, directors, location in order to make a movie.
When you've made a movie you earn money on its release.
Along the way you may have your actors stolen for other films, fail to make the enough money, have an art-house success or a block-buster flop.
The game is too big, too expensive but mostly it needs a lot more playtesting to get the whole process of collecting cards, dispensing cards, winning and making movies and the rewards you get sorting out.

Mo McRae was most recently seen co-starring opposite Kylie Bunbury and Mark-Paul Gosselaar in the FOX drama series “Pitch.” From executive producers Dan Fogelman (“Cars,” “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”) and Rick Singer (“Younger,” “American Dad”), “Pitch” is inspirational story of young pitcher Ginny Baker (Bunbury) who becomes the first woman to play Major League Baseball. McRae shines as San Diego Padres center fielder Blip Sanders, an old friend of Ginny’s from the minor leagues, who always has her back. In addition to “Pitch,” McRae also recently filmed a lead role in “Vital Signs,” a dark, semi-autobiographical drama opposite Dr. Dre that will mark Apple’s foray into original television programming (release date TBA).
Additional recent credits for McRae include a series regular role on TNT’s hit drama “Murder in the First.” He also appeared as Gabourey Sidibe’s love interest in a multi-episode arc on FOX’s “Empire,” solidifying him in the FOX family. In 2016 McRae was seen as civil rights activist Stokely Carmichael in HBO’s award winning film “All The Way,” an adaptation of the Tony-winning Robert Schenkkan play. Directed by Jay Roach and executive produced by Steven Spielberg, the film covers Lyndon Baines Johnson (Bryan Cranston) from the moment the assassination of John F. Kennedy made LBJ the 36th president of the United States and through a turbulent first year that included leveraging his power to pass Civil Rights legislation in Congress up to his landslide re-election victory in 1964. McRae is also well known for the role of Tyler on FX’s hit series “Sons of Anarchy.” Introduced during season five (fall 2013) McRae rejoined the cast for the final season of the show, which follows the lives of a close knit outlaw motorcycle club operating in California’s Central Valley.
On the film front, McRae’s credits include playing Jimmy Carter in the critically acclaimed feature “Wild” [FOX Searchlight] opposite Reese Witherspoon, and the romantic comedy “November Rule” opposite DJ Qualls, Tatyana Ali, Lala Anthony, and Kali Hawk. McRae secured roles in “Wild” and “November Rule” soon after he made waves as black panther leader Eldridge Huggings in the award-winning film “The Butler” [The Weinstein Company] directed by Lee Daniels.
In addition to being one of the most sought after actors in the business, McRae’s talents exceed far beyond his onscreen acting abilities. This year he launched production company Scalable Content, and has successfully directed/produced a number of short films including 2014’s “#AmeriCan” for Nate Parker; a project that comes in response to events that have divided the country over racial lines. Scalable Content also develops material for television and full-length feature films.
Born and raised in South Central Los Angeles, McRae is the oldest of three children. Growing up in the 1980’s in South Central he made a decision at an early age to dream big and defy the odds, as having a successful career in anything, let alone in the entertainment business seemed slim to none in the community he was raised. McRae funneled his energy into poetry, music, and sports. He developed an affinity for performing arts while attending Washington Preparatory High School, and has pursued that dream ever since.
Within weeks of signing with his first agent, McRae landed six national commercials and quickly booked his first feature film, appearing in the Oscar nominated, critically acclaimed Fox Searchlight Pictures “Thirteen.” He went on to book a lead role in Sony Pictures Entertainment’s “Gridiron Gang” opposite Dwayne Johnson and Xzibit as Leon Hayes, a teenager at a juvenile detention center who under the leadership of his counselor gains self esteem by playing football. McRae has also made his mark on the television front, appearing on top television series including: recurring as Deonte Frasier on seasons one & two of Showtime’s award winning series“Ray Donovan,” “Survivor’s Remorse,” “Battle Creek,” “NYPD Blue,” “Boston Public,” “Becker,” “The District,” “The Shield,” “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,” “ER,” “Cold Case,” “Southland,” “Detroit 1-8-7,” “The Defenders,” and “CSI: NY.”
When not working, McRae loves to spend time with his daughter, ride his motorcycle, watch movies, collect sneakers, and keep up on his fitness. He also is actively involved with the nonprofit organization Kids in the Spotlight, a program that trains youth in foster care programs and other under-served youth to create, write, cast and star in their own short films.


Drama helps children to find their voice so that they can speak confidently and express themselves clearly.
Imagine your child giving a confident speech at school. They begin their presentation with a funny joke, delivered with humour and expression and has the whole class laughing. As the laughter subsides, your child continues confidently maintaining the audience's interest by using an expressive voice and eye contact. The speech ends, and the whole room fills with loud applauses.
Is this what you want for your child? The confidence to deliver speeches in class, the ability to hold an engaging conversation with friends and family, the boldness to take the stage and become a character that commands the audience's attention.
Drama classes at Hope Performing Arts Centre are just that. A place where children develop the confidence and skills to communicate effectively with others.
Ivy thoroughly enjoys drama class. - Solange
What happens in Drama lessons?
In our Drama classes, we let kids be kids and encourage them to explore who they are and how to communicate effectively through practical, fun and educationally based skill-building games, improve session, and collaborative work.
Each lesson, our degree qualified teachers encourage students to develop a love of language, a passion for communication and the skills to speak courageously.

Movies movies movies.
I didn’t watch a lot of movies growing up . I was always too busy doing other things.
But as of late, I have discovered somer really good ones.
The transporter series? Awesome.
Mr. Roberts? Dr. Strangelove? Crazy good films that are humorous in such an innocent way. More or less.
Well, while I was thinking about this post, I had to narrow my selections down to three films.
Three movies that I enjoy for completely different reasons each. So, here they are. Garen’s top three favorite films. (Oh yeah, click the posters to see their page on IMDB).
#3 Operation Petticoat
This was the first of the movies I discovered from the 50s. WOW! Great acting, good storyline, plenty or re-playabilibty. This movie was jsut fun to watch. I really enjoyed it. Right down to the pink submarine.
#2 The Abyss.
Long before he ever made Avatar, James Cameron made the abyss. It was filmed in a flooded nuclear cooling tower over the course of 9 months. Not one person on the crew said they would ever consider returning for a second film. It was over budget, stupid difficult to film, and I consider it one of my favorite films of all time.
#1 Disney’s Robin Hood.
Oo-da-lolli! This is the gold standard by which I measure all other robin hood films on the planet. I love the music, the color, the humor, the animation, and the voice actors. This movie is GREAT.
So, that’s it. Those are my three favorite films. Watch them. Their good. 🙂

Meryl Streep wins her third Oscar in 33 years. She holds the record for being nominated 17 times. She originally applied for Law School, but overslept the day of her interview and took it as a sign that she was meant for something else. She has a deviated septum, which she refuses to have fixed. She is married to a sculptor. Fans of the actress called themselves “Streepers”.

When i first saw the email invitation to the gala premiere of 冲上云霄 movie, i rsvp-ed almost instantaneously. It has been about 11 years since i first watched the first drama serial on TV and i totally love the show! Till today, i can still sing along to the official theme song - "岁月如歌" by Eason. Fast forward 11 years, and 2 drama series later, here comes the movie. For this gala premiere, not only i get to watch the movie before it's being screened in cinemas, i get to meet 2 of the cast - Julian Cheung (张智霖) better known as Chilam, and Charmaine Sheh (佘诗曼) in person! Super excited :D
Gala Premiere tickets thanks to Clover Films and Mig.me
By the way, the gala premiere was held at Marina Bay Sands. At about 8pm, the 2 stars arrived at the red carpet and the next thing you know, all the camera phones and hands were in the air, everyone was trying to get a good shot of them, LOL There is always this unreal feeling when celebrities that you have always been seeing on screen are suddenly right in front of you in real life. The photo above is the clearest i could get with my iPhone. Lazy to bring out my cam :|
Had a mini Q&A session with the host as well as photo taking with the audience :)
We then proceeded to the MasterCard Theaters for the movie. When i first learnt that the screening will be at MBS, the first question i had in my head was, "MBS got cinema meh?" Apparently they converted one of their theater to a "cinema" to screen the movie. The theater is like 3 level high. Just before the movie commence, both Julian Cheung and Charmaine Sheh came out to talk slightly about their role in the movie and also to give their CNY greetings to everyone.
In cinemas from 19 February onwards.
Overall i really liked this movie. It brought back the memories when i first started watching the series 11 years ago. There were familiar faces in the cast, especially Francis Ng, (吴镇宇) This movie typically revolves around 3 relationships and i love the cinematic used in this movie to portray the romance. Out of the 3 romance stories, i specially love the romance between Louis Koo (古天乐) and Charmaine Sheh (佘诗曼) because it felt real and you see how they managed to get back together eventually. (spoiler alert) However i wished the show was in Cantonese instead (mainly because i grew up watching the previous 2 series in Cantonese, LOL) Definitely a must watch is you are a fan of the series. 冲上云霄 opens in cinemas from 19 February onwards, be sure to catch the "flight"! :D


My name is Denise, and I’m a swedish actress from Uppsala. I have known my entire life that I wanted to be an actress and often took part in every school play I could. But I took my very first acting class when I was thirteen and I loved every second of it! And since then, acting has been pretty much my number one priority. Right now, I’m quite new in the movie business, but this is what I want to do. Be in front of the camera and ACT!
I’m a huge dreamer and (as the Taurus I am) very stubborn. My absolute main goal is to become a successful actress.

“Zootopia” was a surprising hit for Walt Disney Co. last year. The animated movie grossed more than $1 billion worldwide and won an Academy Award.
A screenwriter is now suing Disney. He’s alleging that the studio stole his idea and copied his designs for the movie’s animal characters.
Screenwriter Gary Goldman, filed a suit Tuesday in a Los Angeles federal court where he stated that he pitched his idea to Disney for a franchise of movies and TV programs called “Zootopia” which includes an animated feature and a live-action component. He claims that Disney rejected the idea, then later stole his story, dialogue, title and artwork.
Goldman’s credits include “Total Recall” and “Big Trouble in Little China,” he was also a screenwriter for the 1990 movie “Navy Seals” and the 2007 sci-fi thriller “Next.” He served as an executive producer on Steven Spielberg’s “Minority Report.”
The suit states that Disney’s “Zootopia” is “significantly similar” to Goldman’s “Zootopia.” It says: “Each of the works addresses the issue of whether, in a diverse society as represented by the different species of ‘Zootopia,’ one can be anything he or she wants to be.”
On Tuesday, Disney issued a statement saying: “Mr. Goldman’s lawsuit is riddled with patently false allegations. It is an unprincipled attempt to lay claim to a successful film he didn’t create, and we will vigorously defend against it in court.” Among other allegations, the plaintiff is claiming copyright infringement and breach of confidence.
A common practice in Hollywood:
Lawsuits by writers claiming that their ideas were stolen are not novel in Hollywood. Writers have sued against the makers of “Avatar,” “The Martian,” “Creed” and “Django Unchained.”
In many of these suits, the courts have sided against the writers. However, in the 1990 case of Buchwald vs. Paramount, where humorist Art Buchwald sued the studio claiming that it had stolen his idea for what became the Eddie Murphy movie “Coming to America,” the found in favor of Buchwald
According to the suit, Goldman first presented his idea in 200 to David Hoberman, Mandeville Films Chief Executive, but was rejected. Then nine years later, he pitched it again to Disney, and was again unsuccessful.
The lawsuit claims the presence of numerous character similarities between Goldman’s idea and the Disney movie, such as Disney character Nick, a con artist red fox, who is similar to the writer’s concept for Roscoe, a hyena. “Both are dog-like predators who appear sly, cynical, and untrustworthy because of their postures, half-lidded eyes, and smirks,” according to the suit.
“Zootopia” was released last March, it received high praise from critics and won an Oscar for best animated feature.

Adnan Siddiqui’s strange request to Angelina Jolie
Adnan Siddiqui is being trolled on social media for requesting Angelina Jolie something considered very indecent in Pakistani culture. In one of his most recent interviews, he was promoting his new film, Dum Mastam.
Adnan is enjoying success as a producer for his latest film, Dum Mastam, starring Imran Ashraf and Momin Saqib. Recently, the trio sat down for an exclusive interview to promote their film.

During the conversation, the host posed trivia questions to the cast. One of the inquiries was about which actress Adnan Siddiqui requested a kissing scene. On the set of A Mighty Heart, Momin Saqib instantly responded about the actress as Angelina Jolie.
The seasoned actor says that the whole cast, including Brad Pitt, was present during the event. According to Adnan, Brad Pitt laughed it off, while his then-wife apparently smiled slyly. Adnan posted these flashback photos from ‘A Mighty Heart’ on Instagram.
Adnan Siddiqui co-starred in the Hollywood film ‘A Mighty Heart’ alongside Angelina Jolie. The film, which also starred Bollywood actor Irfan Khan, was released in 2007. It tells the story of Mariane, the pregnant wife of American journalist Daniel Pearl, who sets out to find him when he goes missing.
Adnan Siddiqui, a veteran actor, producer, and model, is a household name in Pakistan. The 52-year-old has established a reputation for himself with multiple great ventures, including ‘Ye Dil Mera’ and the tremendously blockbuster ‘Mere Pass Tum Ho.’ The actor is well-known not just in Pakistan, but also throughout the world, having appeared in the Bollywood film Mom and the Hollywood film ‘A Mighty Heart’, starring both Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
Siddiqui now runs his own production company, Cereal Entertainment. He has produced films like Aadat, Ghughi, and, most recently, Dum Mastam.
After the revelation, social media users have strongly criticized the actor for making what they call an indecent request.
Prior to this, Adnan Siddiqui faced backlash on social media following his meeting with former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in the United Kingdom. On Monday, a photo of the actor with the former prime minister went viral on Twitter.
In a later video message, the actor stated that he was in the UK to promote his latest film, Dum Mastam. Dum Mastam is produced by Adnan Siddiqui. He met Nawaz Sharif while promoting his current film. Siddique claims he invited Nawaz Sharif to the film’s UK premiere.
The actor stated that he informed the former PM how hard the team worked to accomplish the production. Salman Shahbaz, the premier’s son, was also seen in the video. In another footage, Salman Shahbaz is seen taking Adnan Siddiqui to Hussain Nawaz’s office.

The most noticeable difference between Hulu and Netflix is that they are two different companies. Both companies stream video content, films, television shows and documentaries, over various types of devices for a fee. The fees are similar, though Netflix offers higher platforms for multiple devices, HD devices and a DVD delivery service that costs more. Hulu does not offer a DVD rental service, but Netflix started as a DVD rental delivery service and evolved into a streaming service. Netflix offers a lot more content than Hulu does, but Hulu gets its content to the market quicker. Here are other notable differences between Netflix and Hulu.
Here there is a clear difference between Hulu and Netflix, as Hulu content includes annoying ads, even though you pay for the content that you are streaming. The advertisements in Hulu content cannot be eliminated or skipped, so you are stuck watching paid advertisements even though you pay to watch your chosen show or film. Netflix has ads they use like trailers when you go to the movies, they play before your content starts, but NO content on Netflix is interrupted by an advertisement as of yet.
Netflix wins library size hands down they change up their library monthly but they offer thousands more TV show episodes and films than Hulu does. The problem is that much of the content is old and dated, especially television shows, which in many cases are off the air, or at the very least are a season or more older. Hulu content is often very recent. Hulu offers current television series with episodes that you can view as soon as the day after they initially air. Hulu also offers a lot of quirky, Independent and artsy films, and more recent films than Netflix.
It is here that Netflix has a clear advantage. Netflix has hit original shows like House of Cards and Orange is the New Black and exclusive motion picture deals with stars like Adam Sandler. Netflix has essentially become a Hollywood studio and a cable television network, and is developing extremely popular, award winning content that you can get nowhere else. Hulu has some original content but it is cheaply produced, is minimal, and pales in comparison to Netflix.


Skripsi Bahasa Inggris : THE INFLUENCE THE OF MAIN CHARACTERS’ CONFLICTS TOWARD PLOT IN OSCAR WILDE’S “THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST”
M. ARIFIN 01.03.52.0060 THE FACULTY OF LANGUAGE AND CULTURE STIKUBANK UNIVERSITY SEMARANG
In this thesis the writer uses a drama by Oscar Wilde, a controversial man of letters of England. This thesis focuses on the influence of the main characters’ toward plot in Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest. This thesis also applies psychological aspect to analyze the main characters’ characteristics.
In writing this thesis, the writer conducts library research method to collect the data and information by using some books and internet which are related to the problem. The writer employs one method of approach namely semiotic approach. The semiotic approach is applied to analyze the character, especially the main character, plot in the drama. The writer also uses psychological approach to analyze the intrinsic aspect such as character and plot.
In The Importance of Being Earnest, Jack and Algernon, are two characters who have different characteristics. Each of them creates another character. Jack creates Ernest and Algernon creates Bunbury. Having two different names, they can do anything in two different places, in the town and in the country. In addition, the main characters experience both internal and external conflict during the drama. Mainly, both Jack and Algernon have the same internal conflict. They concern if someday their real identity would be revealed by their girls. Meanwhile Jack’s conflict toward Lady Bracknell about his origin makes him try hard to reveal it. Algernon’s undercover as Ernest at Manor House, Jack’s place, makes their real identity are finally revealed and clear up Jack’s origin through Miss Prism and Lady Bracknell’s explanation. In conclusion, the internal and external conflicts of Jack and Algernon lead to the revelation of Jack’s origin. Both internal and external conflicts influence the plots of drama, such as Algernon’s conflict toward Jack causes him to pretend as Ernest at Manor House in order that he can meet Cecily, and Jack’s internal conflict causes him to decide to vanish his created bother, Ernest.
The Importance of Being Earnest reflects a moral value dealing with human’s daily life, namely honesty. A person may do anything to reach his/her aim, but being honest is something hard to do. He/she may be smart to conceal a falsehood, but it would be revealed eventually. Hence, in any condition honesty is needed although it is painful.
