Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr. (born October 20, 1971), better known by his stage name Snoop Dogg (formerly known as Snoop Doggy Dogg), is an American rapper, record producer, and actor. Snoop is best known as a rapper in the West Coast hip hop scene, and for being one of Dr. Dre's most notable protégés. Snoop Dogg was a Crip gang member while in high school. Shortly after graduation, he was arrested for cocaine possession and spent six months in Wayside County Jail. His music career began in 1992 after his release when he was discovered by Dr. Dre. He collaborated on several tracks on Dre's solo debut, The Chronic and on the titular theme song to the film Deep Cover.
Snoop's debut album Doggystyle, was released in 1993 under Death Row Records making a debut at No.1 on both the Billboard 200 and R&B charts. Selling almost a million copies in the first week of its release, Doggystyle quickly became certified 4× platinum in 1994 and spawned several hit singles, including "What's My Name" and "Gin & Juice". In 1994, Snoop released a soundtrack on Death Row Records for the short film Murder Was The Case, starring himself. In early 1996, Snoop Dogg was cleared of charges over his bodyguard's 1993 murder of Philip Woldemariam. His second album, late 1996's Tha Doggfather, also debuted at No.1 on both charts with "Snoop's Upside Ya Head" as the lead single. The album sold only half as well, being certified double platinum in 1997.
Plot
Two friends Jen and Lena meet as children and make a pact to be life-long kindred spirits but eventually drift apart due to lifestyle choices. Jen becomes the tough, smooth, "got it all together" business woman intent on making the bucks and living the good life, single and in charge. Lena, on the other hand, is the "good girl" choosing religion, marriage and the suburbs only to find herself shackled to a possessive, self-absorbed husband who tries to control her every move and thought while doing as he pleases. The two friends re-unite when Lena is diagnosed with cancer and is told she has less than two months to live. Feeling alone and frightened she remembers the long ago pact made with Jen that she would never be alone. Lena calls Jen and the two women pick up their friendship where they left off with a renewed love and devotion fired by Lena's illness. Lena's dying wish is to take one last trip with Jen to their childhood neighborhood by the ocean but getting Lena out of the overbearing and selfish control of her husband Dave proves to be far more difficult than even smooth, aggressive Jen could have imagined. Dave and Jen become arch enemies fighting over Lena's right to die with the dignity of her own decisions. Jen's emotions are even more complicated by Lena's faith in God which Jen finds frustrating and childish in the face of her empty life and present illness; after all, if God's so good why have her choices lead the naive Lena to a miserable marriage and premature death? Eventually Jen does succeed in escaping with Lena and the women make their way to the beach where childhood memories and life long decisions must be re-examined in the light of personal choices and life's ultimate end. Never Alone is the story of the tender love of two woman grappling with their own morality and the reasons for existence in a world that's never fair.
Plot
Perfect Pitch is about the art of pitching. It tells the humorous story of a writer, Chuck Wang, who joins a room full of oddball writers to pitch his concept to an imposing Mr. Leech. While he nervously sits with his script in a waiting room, Mr. Leech and two other studio executives become increasingly impatient with the numerous awful ideas they must endure. They are in an unreceptive mood when Chuck Wang is called in. Surprisingly, they respond to his introduction about rooting for an underdog. It quickly goes sour, however, when Chuck introduces the details of classical music and genius. The spark of an idea gets tossed around though, and soon becomes unrecognizable as an idea about a baseball pitcher throwing a perfect game in the seventh game of the World Series. Chuck is congratulated for his brilliant concept, and is whisked out.
Plot

Each episode of Frank Leaves For The Orient deals with another aspect of Frank's attempts to wrap up his life, break up with his girlfriend, quit his job, etc. The action becomes a surreal, rapid-fire, sometimes non-linear story that splits apart and then comes back together.

[after sex]::Brantley Foster: Can I make a personal observation?::Vera Prescott: Um, anything but the thighs.::Brantley Foster: You know, somebody sold you a bill of goods and convinced you you had to be 21 forever. I think you're terrific; I think the only thing wrong with you is your husband is a jerk. You're beautiful, you're intelligent, you're sensuous...::Vera Prescott: Say that again!::Brantley Foster: Which part?::Vera Prescott: All of it! [sounds of car] Oh, no.::Brantley Foster: What, what is it?::Vera Prescott: It's the jerk.

[after reviewing Brantley's (faked) résumé]::Mrs. Meacham: Outstanding!

No exceptions! I want this job, I need it, I can do it. Everywhere I've been today there's always been something wrong, too young, too old, too short, too tall.

I can't say hello to him?::Fred Melrose: He's not a person, he's a suit! You're mailroom. No consorting.
Vera Prescott: [into phone] This is the third weekend in a row he's found an excuse not to come to the country... No, I don't know, but knowing him it's probably some teenage airhead from the steno pool. Hmph. The last one I caught him with was so dumb, she thought "dictation" was some kind of S&M; trip.
Howard Prescott: What you are doing in here?::Vera Prescott: [half naked] Feeling romantic...::Howard Prescott: Oh. What's for dinner?::Vera Prescott: Ohh, Howard! You really know how to sweep a girl back onto her feet.

What are you doing here?::Vera Prescott: Brantley, darling, I heard you calling me telepathically - I'm VERY psychic - so of COURSE I rushed right over.::Brantley Foster: I would've used the phone...::Vera Prescott: Mental telepathy's much more reliable.
Brantley Foster: We have a problem.::Vera Prescott: What?::Brantley Foster: It's your husband: he's my boss.::Vera Prescott: O-oh, him. We won't tell him. Besides, Howard's working late tonight - on whom, I have no idea.
Christy Wills: You want me to spy on him?::Howard Prescott: No, I don't want you to spy on him. I want you to get to be friends with him, and then rifle through his papers and tell me what you find.

Plot
On a peaceful, pre-war winter in Czechoslovakia, the genial godfather, Jaroslav Haschek, of Vera Hascheck, presents the young girl with her first pair of ice skates. Soon, she astonished the warm-hearted people of her village with her skill, and she is acclaimed a marvel-on-ice. She wins the ice-skating championship of her country and is invited to skate at the fabulous Lake Placid Carnival in the United States. Vera receives an offer of a contract from eager showman, Carlton Webb, and his press agent Jiggers - but she turns them down. The financial backer for the two men is a wealthy, gabby, man-chasing woman called "Countess". Vera is a sensation at Lake Placid when she learns of Nazi Germany's move on Czechoslovakia, and she immediately attempts to abandon her career and rejoin her people. The trip can not be arranged and, alone in a strange country, she seeks an uncle, Carl Cermack, who has become a prosperous American citizen. The uncle welcomes her to his sumptuous Lond Island home, where he lives with his spoiled débutante daughters Irene and Susan. Vera learns that the two sisters are fighting it out over the same man, Paul Jordan, Cermack's junior partner, who isn't overwhelmed by either sister. Vera invites her uncle and cousins to join her at Lake Placid, where she is to appear in the dazzling New Year's Eve ballet. She is named "Queen" of the ballet, and Roy Rogers, a visiting movie-cowboy star is named "King." Paul begins to pick up interest in Vera, and she agrees to sign a contract with Webb, provided she can use an assumed name in his shows. Jiggers suggests they call her "Cinderella," because she has lost one of her famous skates. When Vera opens at Madison Square Garden, Jiggers plants the story that she refuses to appear until her skate is returned. Aware that Paul has kept her skate as a souvenir, Cermack telephones his partner in Texas. On the night of the opening, Webb and Jiggers are driven to desperation, since Vera has taken their publicity gag in earnest and refuses to go on unless her skate is returned. None of the phony "Prince Charmings" Jiggers has hired has the right skate, of course. The weary Vera doesn't even look at the last applicant - but the skate is hers. She stares down and recognizes her godfather, Jaroslav, who has been brought to American by her uncle. He explains that her skate was given to him by a young man. He beckons into the crowd and Paul emerges. Vera finds herself in the arms of her own Prince Charming.

He spoke up now for a little while.
Couldn't let his life slip away.
He spoke up now just for a little while
but couldn't find words to say.
He spoke up now with an open file
to put his plan in place.
He spoke up now and all the while,
the colour drained from his face.
Too tired to sleep at night,
working the day,
can't find an appetite, no time to play.
He spoke up now, threw his pencil down,
wiped a tear from his cheek.
He spoke up now,
all his colleagues frowned.
He wasn't made for the working week.
Too tired to sleep at night,
working the day,
can't find an appetite, no time to play.
He spoke up now
as the walls came in
and stared defeat in the eye.
He spoke up now
with an evil grin
and bid his job goodbye.
Too tired to sleep at night,
