Felix's world is turned upside down when he wins a scholarship to a prestigious school. Wanting to prove himself, he auditions for the school concert, but he can't read music. Two aging ex-Bozza Boys give Felix a cash course on the saxophone and teach him about his musical roots and his father's past.

One day however, the rules of only men playing women could change when aspiring actress Maria auditions as Kynaston's praised role, Desdemona, and soon enough, King Charles II decides to make the law that all female roles should be played only by women.

Quotes:

Ned Kynaston: A woman playing a woman? Where's the trick in that?

King Charles II: Why shouldn't we have women on stage? After all, the French have been doing it for years.::Sir Edward Hyde: Whenever we're about to do something truly horrible, we always say that the French have been doing it for years.

Ned Kynaston: A part doesn't belong to an actor; an actor belongs to a part.

Maria: I am an actress, not a beauty.

Ned Kynaston: Right, I'll need boot black.::Sir Charles Sedley: I have boot black.::Ned Kynaston: With you?::Sir Charles Sedley: A scuff, sir, is a dreadful thing.

Maria: What do you know of love, sir? Or loyalty? Or adoration suffered in deepest silence? The only love you know, sir, is what you act on stage.

Ned Kynaston: [discussing Maria's first Othello show] Did you go round after?::George Villiars, Duke of Buckingham: Oh, too crowded. Pepys went. If two mice were fucking in a nutshell, he'd find room to squeeze in and write it down.

Sir Charles Sedley: Kynaston... It feels I've had the honour already.::Ned Kynaston: Or you've already had the honour of feeling it.::Sir Charles Sedley: Obviously I'm behind on my drinking.

Maria: Mr Kynaston, I can explain everything.::Ned Kynaston: Why, are you a philosopher?

Samuel Pepys: Tell me about your parentage, Miss Gwynn.::Nell Gwynn: My mum was a whore, my father was in the navy.::Samuel Pepys: I see.::Nell Gwynn: That's why I don't never do sailors.

Famous quotes by Samuel Pepys:

"Did satisfy myself mighty fair in the truth of the saying that the world do not grow old at all, but is in as good condition in all respects as ever it was."

"But me thought it lessened my esteem of a king, that he should not be able to command the rain."

"I find my wife hath something in her gizzard, that only waits an opportunity of being provoked to bring up; but I will not, for my content-sake, give it."

"Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends."

"It having been a very cold night last night I had got some cold, and so in pain by wind, and a sure precursor of pain is sudden letting off farts, and when that stops, then my passages stop and my pain begins"

"Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody."

"Music and woman I cannot but give way to, whatever my business is."

"The truth is, I do indulge myself a little the more in pleasure, knowing that this is the proper age of my life to do it; and, out of my observation that most men that do thrive in the world do forget to take pleasure during the time that they are getting their estate, but reserve that till they have got one, and then it is too late for them to enjoy it."

"Saw a wedding in the church. It was strange to see what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition."

"Thanks be to God. Since my leaving the drinking of wine, I do find myself much better, and do mind my business better, and do spend less money, and less time lost in idle company."

"I went out to Charing Cross to see Major General Harrison hanged, drawn, and quartered; which was done there, he looking as cheerful as any man could in that condition."

"As happy a man as any in the world, for the whole world seems to smile upon me!"

"Strange, to see what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition, every man and wife gazing and smiling at them."

Duration: 46:18
Updated: 12 Jul 2014

Peter Ackroyd's excellent biography of London is required reading for all Londonphils, but I bet you didn't know that he also presented a series based on the book. It's not available in the USA (or many other places for that matter). So, we've uploaded to YouTube. In episode 1 - Fire and Destiny - Author Peter Ackroyd explores the development of London, revealing how the city has managed to survive several devastating fires. Drawing on the writings of Tacitus, Samuel Pepys and Virginia Woolf, he charts some of the most destructive chapters in the capital's history, including the Iceni rebellion, the Great Fire and the Blitz. With Derek Jacobi and Harriet Walter.

Samuel L. Jackson Insists Reporter Say N-Word in 'Django Unchained' Interview Samuel L. Jackson Insists Reporter Say N word [Controversial Part] in 'Django Unchained' Interview Samuel L. Jackson Insists Reporter Say N-Word in 'Django Unchained' Interview (Video) 9:07 AM PST 1/2/2013 by Jordan Zakarin share Comments ( ) 128 Django Unchained Samuel L. Jackson - H 2012 When asked to address the prolific use of the word in Quentin Tarantino's new film, Jackson refuses to do so unless the interviewer says it too. That's one way of shutting down a tired line of questioning. our editor recommends 'Django Unchained': What the Critics Are Saying Tarantino's 'Django Unchained' Reignites Debate Over N-Word in Movies In Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained, a Western epic set in the pre-Civil War South, the film's various characters say the N-word more than 100 times, resulting in a major debate over the movie's historical accuracy and respect of modern social standards. Not normally one to skirt any debate -- especially one over language -- it seems that the eventual ubiquity of the conversation finally put Samuel L. Jackson over the edge. PHOTOS: THR's Biggest Rulebreakers 2012 In an interview with Houston's Fox TV affiliate, the actor -- who plays a house slave loyal to a plantation owner, played by Leonardo DiCaprio -- Jackson refuses to discuss the use of the N-word until his interviewer, film critic Jake Hamilton, uses the actual word. Hamilton, a white man, refuses. "Have you ever said it? Try it! We're not going to have this conversation unless you try it," Jackson said, breaking into laughter. When Hamilton asked him to say it, Jackson said, "F--- no, it's not the same thing." Jackson was good-spirited about the exchange, though he never did answer the question. Earlier in December, Tarantino spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the criticism over his use of the word and violence in the film. "Not one word of social criticism that's been leveled my way has ever changed one word of any script or any story I tell," he said. "I believe in what I'm doing wholeheartedly and passionately. It's my job to ignore that." Samuel L. Jackson,N-Word,N word,Quentin Tarantino,Django Unchained,Django Unchained Trailer,Samuel Jackson,Debate Over N-Word,N-Word in Movies,Jake Hamilton

William Samuel was known as the “teacher’s teacher” perhaps because so many teachers came to study with him. There was an inordinate number of philosophers, theologians, and members of the academe. In the later years there came physicists and mathematicians. It seemed to William that he would get the most earnest and dedicated students of Truth. Quite a number of Taoists and Buddhists had found William’s message and came to study–even some who were called Masters. Many have gone from his study to become authors, writers and teachers. In some marvelous way his story has been found by the metaphysical and scientific elite of all the word–at least by a few. He said “When it is told perfectly, my whole world will hear.” Although, Mr. Samuel did not embrace the idea of being called a teacher, saying “I’ve been telling my own story–how it happened and what it has allowed me to understand–for over 30 years. That is not the same as being a teacher.” He was a genuine sage and mystic. He brought the message of non-duality, or as he called it the Subjective View in a simple heart felt words that everyone interested in their Self discovery can understand and profit from. A humble man who discovered true peace and tranquility that remains steady and true even during the changes and turmoil encountered in life. Never seeking to be well known or venerated himself, he has been widely recognized by many as a genuine true Master. William’s message is that he did not embrace the idea of being called a teacher, saying “I’ve been telling my own story–how it happened and what it has allowed me to understand–for over 30 years. That is not the same as being a teacher.” “Every teacher, book, writer, practitioner, sage, guru or peanut vendor, by whatever name, title or label they go by, is an aspect of the Awareness (Identity) “we” are. We take the book from the shelf most likely to render a specific service at a given moment. Exactly so, we have appeared to go to the philosophy, teacher, church, friend, stranger or peanut vendor that has unfolded as sufficient for the moment–but that philosophy, teacher, church, friend or stranger is within the awareness We are. So is the peanut vendor. We are forever looking at our Self.”…..William Samuel William Samuel was one of the first Americans to sit with Ramana Maharshi The story of his visit goes something like this: At 18 years old he graduated from Clemson and was immediately made captain of infantry and sent off to battle in China, during W.W.II While in China, William’s troops were doing battle along with the British and Indians near the Burmese boarder. It was during that time when William apparently was given some much needed R&R.; He took advantage of that time and went to see Ramana Maharshi in Tiruvannamalai, South India. William, at that time, was only 21 years old. This two week visit took place in April of 1944. It is believed that William was among the first American students to visit Sri Ramana. Up until then the visitors were mostly Indian and British. Soon after Williams visit many more westerner’s began coming to see Sri Ramana. William was indeed a master teacher who had found a way to communicate honestly and clearly his insights on the Absolute and the premises of the metaphysical, subjective view now often called non duality.

Famous quotes by Samuel Pepys:

"Did satisfy myself mighty fair in the truth of the saying that the world do not grow old at all, but is in as good condition in all respects as ever it was."

"But me thought it lessened my esteem of a king, that he should not be able to command the rain."

"I find my wife hath something in her gizzard, that only waits an opportunity of being provoked to bring up; but I will not, for my content-sake, give it."

"Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends."

"It having been a very cold night last night I had got some cold, and so in pain by wind, and a sure precursor of pain is sudden letting off farts, and when that stops, then my passages stop and my pain begins"

"Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody."

"Music and woman I cannot but give way to, whatever my business is."
