Four Last Songs (2007)

Actors

Genres

Quotes:

[first lines]::Larry: Señora Lunchinski, forgive me for writing to you when we do not know each other. Like so many people who live on this island, I came from another country to find a new beginning. To put myself on the map. One of the forces that drew me was the extraordinary power of your late husband's music. It's a tragedy that there's never been a celebration of his work here on the island. What I'm proposing is a magnificent and unusual concert. We all have our passions, which are so intense to ourselves, but seem insignificant to others. It would mean so much of you would listen to my proposal, and perhaps share my dream.

Miranda: So how long are you here for, Dickie?::Dickie: Well if all goes well, for the rest of my life.::Miranda: Wow, that's a commitment. I've been here for seven years, and I love it, you know. There's something about the air that kind of erogenizes you.::Dickie: Hmm. Sounds perfect, have my babies.::Miranda: Actually, I can't have children. Um, I was in New York, got a nasty S.T.D. The doctor said it cut me up and left me sterile, but with a "Jackson Pollack" on my womb. So I'm useless, but decorative. If you like abstract art.

Dickie: [at grave] What are you doing here?::Helena: I'm just visiting Valentin.::Dickie: Oh him. The great decomposer.

[last lines]::Dickie: I don't know what happens next.::Sebastian Burrows: What happens next... is two lads build a raft, out of anything they can find, but it's all wood, plastic panels... And they lash 'em together. And in the dead of the night, they creep out of the house, and set off down the stream. And they don't know where they're going. They know that dawn will come, and that they're going on this adventure together.

Charles Lindbergh: The True Story (2005)

Actors

Plot

Harold the Amazing Contortionist Pig (2005)

Actors

Plot
When he was born it was immediately obvious that Harold was no ordinary pig. The fact that he was inflatable was one thing but the ambition he had was what made him stand out. After a few years on the farm as an outsider he just left and wound up with a circus, helping out with odd jobs. And then, one night, when the main act fell sick (and fell on top of his act - the fleas) Harold steps up. Fitting his whole body into a jam jar, Harold becomes famous. However with fame comes pressure and nobody stays at the top forever. This documentary looks back at his career, from the perspective of those that knew him best.

The Big Questions: Phil Hartman biographer Mike Thomas

Duration: 36:06
Updated: 06 Oct 2014

In this episode, we explore the life of comedian Phil Hartman ("Saturday Night Live," "NewsRadio," "The Simpsons") with biographer Mike Thomas of the Chicago Sun-Times. Below is an excerpt of our conversation, but to hear the full interview listen to “The Big Questions” podcast on iTunes, SoundCloud or YouTube. With this book, Thomas faced the biographer's quandary of, "How close can you get to the truth of someone's life?" A biographer is never sure how close he gets to the truth, Thomas said. “You can put all the facts together and express them as eloquently as you can, but you can never truly know,” Thomas said. “I didn’t really know how close I got until I started getting feedback from his brothers and his ex-wives and his friends, people who really knew him…. who told me, ‘you brought him back on the page.’ ” But Hartman’s legacy was the fearlessness he brought to roles, often the pompous blowhards he became known for. “Phil was utterly committed to whatever he did. Jan Hooks told me, even the smallest parts, he played them for blood,” Thomas said. But the way Hartman died overshadows his career. Unlike fellow SNL alums John Belushi or Chris Farley, Hartman was not an icon of excess. His lifestyle was not a beacon of caution, which made his death even more shocking. In 1998, Hartman’s third wife Brynn shot him while he slept, then killed herself hours later, leaving two small children. “Nobody truly had a grasp on his third marriage and how much discord there actually ways,” Thomas said. “So when he was killed, they were stunned. And they are stunned to this day.” The Big Questions is part of the Sun-Times Media Podcast Network.

1903: King Håkon was not King Olav's biological father, according to biographer Tor Bomann-Larsen

Duration: 13:41
Updated: 20 Nov 2014

Olaf allegedly fathered by his own grandfather!? House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha v. House of Bernadotte - Doubts raised over King Olav's lineage - Aftenposten 14 Oct 2004 Bomann-Larsen makes an interesting case for King Haakon's royal physician Sir Francis Laking as Olav's real father! A new book by (Unitarian) Tor Bomann-Larsen makes a "sensational" historical investigation that raises new questions about who King Olav's biological father really was, newspaper Dagbladet reports. AV Jonathan Tisdall - The revelations are published in the second volume of Bomann-Larsen's history of King Haakon and Queen Maud, which is launched in book, entitled "Folket" (The People), is published by Cappelen. Bomann-Larsen argues that Queen Maud's personal physician Sir Francis Laking was Olav's biological father, and investigates a secret hospital stay in London by the queen in October 1902. The book contains a photograph of Laking's son Guy Francis Laking, born in 1875, who bears a striking resemblance to the adult King Olav. Bomann-Larsen also raises the possibility that Laking's son (or Charles Rothschild) was a possible "sperm donor" for (33 year-old virgin) Maud of Wales, and that Olav was the result of artificial insemination (by HIDDEN SEED Moravian Brethren) to cover up for her husband's infertility. The 1941 autopsy revealed that Maud had not given any birth, Olav was probably adopted (within The Royal Unitarian House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha) . Prins Carl giftet seg med sin britiske kusine, Prinsesse Maud (1869-1938), i 1896. Hun var datter av Kong Edward VII og Dronning Alexandra. Paret fikk sønnen Alexander, født på Appleton House i Norfolk 2. juli 1903 (Probable Day of Conception - Oct 10, 1902). Prince Louis of Battenberg of was appointed as Director of Naval Intelligence in November 1902 Victor Rothschild, the only son of Charles Rothschild and Transylvanian Rozsika Edle von Wertheimstein), was the so-called Fifth Man in the Cambridge Spy Ring. In 1749, Zinzendorf leased Lindsey House, a large manor in Chelsea built on the estate of Sir Thomas More to be a headquarters for the Moravian community in London. King Olav V of Norway Coronation in Trondheim Nidaros Chatedral, 22 june 1958 (Feast Day of St. Thomas More) by Unitarian Bishop Arne Fjellbu. The Consecration of King Olav V King Olav V was consecrated in Nidaros Cathedral on 22 June 1958, exactly 52 years following the coronation of his parents (by Unitarian Peter Chr. Hersleb "Michelsen" Kjerschow) in the same cathedral (Wexelsen Evang Hauge). The Article relating to coronation in the Constitution of 1814 established that the King of Norway was to be crowned in Nidaros Cathedral. In 1908 the Storting repealed the Article by a large majority. As a consequence, when King Haakon died in 1957, there was no ceremony in place for the inauguration of the new King, except for the swearing of the oath of allegiance in the Storting. However, there was no prohibition against arranging a special ceremony should the King so desire. Karen Mowat - datter av Kristian Quart Først i 1596 ble Christian kronet til konge. Formelt var Christian IV konge i 60 år. Han fikk i alt 24 barn. Frederik III (født 18. mars 1609, død 9. februar 1670) var konge av Danmark og Norge 1648--1670 og tilhørte huset Oldenburg. Karen Mowat, født 1630, fødested Hovland i Tysnes, Hordaland, død 1675, dødssted Christiania. Karen Mowat var gift med Ludvig Rosenkrantz, den første baron til Rosendal, Rosendals Baroni. Opprettet 14.1 1678 for baron Ludvig Rosenkrantz. Til kronen 1723. Stamhus 1749. Baroni 1799/1809/1812. Kongeloven, Lex Regia, for Kongerigerne Danmark og Norge, var enevældens retslige grundlag dateret den 14. november 1665. Das Königsgesetz (dänisch Kongelov) wurde 1665 in Dänemark verabschiedet. Das Kongelov blieb bis zur Verkündung der ersten dänischen Verfassung durch König Friedrich VII. im Jahr 1849 in Kraft. London Protocol 1852 affirmed the integrity of the Danish federation. However, Frederick VII of Denmark was Lutheran, and the line of succession was modified (to Unitarian House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha). Frederick VII (1808 -- 1863) reigned from 1848 until his death. He was the last Danish monarch of the House of Oldenburg and also the last king of Denmark to rule as an absolute monarch.

JERRY LEE LEWIS BIOGRAPHER RICK BRAGG (made with Spreaker)

Duration: 41:55
Updated: 02 Nov 2014

Source: http://www.spreaker.com/user/hallicasserjayne/jerry-lee-lewis-biographer-rick-bragg He is known as ‘The Killer,’ and he changed music as we know it. His name: Jerry Lee Lewis. In a special edition of The Halli Casser-Jayne Show we take a look at the life and times of Jerry Lee Lewis. Joining Halli at her table is one of the great Southern storytellers of our time, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author Rick Bragg, whose new book JERRY LEE LEWIS, HIS OWN STORY. Interviewing the seminal musician over the course of two summers, Bragg recreates the almost impossible to believe story of the hell-raising Southern boy who would galvanize the world and give the devil’s edge to rock and roll with songs like “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On” and “Great Balls of Fire.” Together Bragg and Lewis have created an amazing biography of the music legend: JERRY LEE LEWIS: HIS OWN STORY for this groundbreaking new book. Bragg is the author of the New York Times bestsellers ALL OVER BUT THE SHOUTIN’, AVA’S MAN, THE PRINCE OF FROGTOWN, and I AM A SOLDIER, TOO: THE JESSICA LYNCH STORY. He has twice won the prestigious American Society of Newspaper Editors Distinguished Writing Award and more than fifty writing awards in his career. He is currently a professor of writing at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa. Jerry Lee Lewis helped define the wild frontier of rock and roll. His most recent albums, Last Man Standing (2006) and Mean Old Man (2010), were his most successful in thirty years. Still performing today, The Killer recently opened Jerry Lee Lewis’s Cafe and Honky Tonk on Beale Street in Memphis, Tennessee. http://bit.ly/hcjblog
