The stunning true story of the first solo, non-stop, round-the-world boat race, and the psychological toll it took on its competitors. Sponsored by the Sunday Times of London, the much- ballyhooed event attracted a field of nine, including amateur sailor Donald Crowhurst, who set out to circumnavigate the globe in late 1968. Battling treacherous seas and his own demons, Crowhurst almost immediately comes apart as he faces the isolation of nine months on the high seas. Part adventure yarn and part metaphysical mystery, DEEP WATER is an unforgettable journey into one man’s heart of darkness.

This is the famous B-minor study Op. 35 No. 22. It is said that Sor used this piece as an encore in London and was called in seven times to play it again and again... I don't know if it's true, but it's a good story .-) Picture is F. Sor's tombstone.

As in MRS. HENDERSON PRESENTS and BEING JULIA, this period comedy brings wit and style to its depiction of 1930s London. Based on Winifred Watson's novel, MISS PETTIGREW LIVES FOR A DAY begins with the title character, a frumpy governess winningly played by Frances McDormand (FARGO), being turned away from her employment agency. After losing her job prospects and all her earthly possessions in a mishap, Guinevere Pettigrew isn't sure where her next meal is coming from. But some cleverness leads her to the door of aspiring actress Delysia Lafosse, a woman who needs a social secretary to juggle her three men: a nightclub owner (Mark Strong), a son of a theater producer (Tom Payne), and a piano player (Lee Pace). The first two offer her a chance at stardom, but the pianist can't give her anything but love. In a single day, Miss Pettigrew helps Delysia navigate the ever-stormy waters of love, while she learns that romance may not only be reserved for the young.With its witty script and jazzy score, MISS PETTIGREW may seem feather-light at times, but there's an undercurrent of sadness that gives the comedy a bit of weight. World War II is just about to come to London, and the echoes of the previous war still haunt those who can remember it. Unsurprisingly, McDormand gives a fantastic performance as the title character, but the effervescent Adams continues to surprise, even after turning in great work in JUNEBUG and ENCHANTED. As impressive as the two female leads are, there are some excellent performances from two male costars: Ci�ran Hinds (MARGOT AT THE WEDDING) is perfectly warm as a lingerie designer Miss Pettigrew encounters, and Pace (PUSHING DAISIES) wins hearts as the faithful Michael. Costume designer Michael O'Connor also deserves praise for creating the film's eye-catching clothing. (1 hr. 32 min.)

"Security, central planning, surveillance state is an ideal cocoon for global capitalism" Naomi Klein: "I think this is an incredibly efficient, actually, a scarily efficient way of organizing society that's actually being celebrated here, which is a hybrid of some of the worst elements of authoritarian communism—mass surveillance of the population, total lack of civil liberties, lack of a free press, lack of democratic rights, authoritarian central planning, all harnessed not to advance the goals of social justice, even in name, although there may be some lip service still paid to that, but to advance the goals of global capitalism. So it is Stalinism meets global capitalism.... There are 100,000 security officers just on Olympic duty. And to put that into perspective, the stadium itself, the Bird's Nest Stadium holds 90,000. So there's 90,000 spectators and 100,000 secret police keeping control of things in Beijing. So this is an incredible operation. But when you hear people like Lou Dobbs and other commentators talking about the problems in China, it's always red China, communist China, or the Chi-coms. And it's really this blast from the past of—you know, it's almost as if the Cold War never ended." Naomi Klein is an award-winning journalist, syndicated columnist and author of the international and New York Times bestseller The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism. Klein's previous book No Logo: Taking Aim at the Brand Bullies was also an international bestseller. Klein is a former Miliband Fellow at the London School of Economics and holds an honorary Doctor of Civil Laws from the University of King’s College, Nova Scotia.

We're in London's Leicester Square at the 'Mamma Mia!' premiere with Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Seyfried, Colin Firth and even producers Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson! "I'm thrilled to be here," Pierce told ET. "I've been in this square a number of times over the years, but I have to say this is really one of the happiest." In the Broadway smash-turned-big screen musical, Amanda stars as a blushing bride who invites three men to a Greek island -- all of whom could be her father! Meryl stars as the mother of the bride, while Pierce, Colin and Stellan Skarsgard co-star as possible papas. The movie musical, which hits theaters on July 18, takes its music from hit '70s supergroup ABBA.

The identity of the secretive street artist has been outed by a Sunday newspaper and, shock horror, he's middle class. But does it matter? July 14, 2008 10:45 AM Banksy's Cans Festival. Photograph: Jim Dyson/Getty Images Gasp, horror! Banksy isn't a fictional character. His cover has been blown. He's an actual person who makes art. Worse than that, according to the Mail on Sunday, he went to public school. He's middle class! He lived in suburbia! What did people expect? That just because he started with graffiti and grew into street art that he was some council estate hoodie with a knife? The Mail on Sunday allegedly spent a year tracking him down - discovering the earth-shattering news that Banksy is a bloke called Robert Gunningham (who went to the same school as Sophie Anderton - though at different times). Spiced up with old interviews, the life the Mail describes is pretty dull. Bloke has middle management parents, goes to school, likes graffiti, makes some art, lives with some mates, moves to London from Bristol. Not exactly headline worthy. The question of the artist's anonymity seized the public - and more importantly the media - since he first started making serious money. And that's the main issue. The secrecy of Banksy's identity seems to be much more about the public's fascination with celebrity and money than anything to do with art. Who is this invisible person raking in the cash and why isn't he in the pages of Heat magazine or sleazing it up at the back of Art Review? It's a good piece of marketing spin that the artist himself has played up by keeping quiet. If Banksy is a brand, will it be damaged by his outing? But from an artistic point of view, will Banksy's exposure make his work better or worse now people know who he is? It may make his ability to make a street piece a little more difficult if coppers can follow him home afterwards. (That is assuming the police waste as much time and money as the Mail has on tracking him down.) Perhaps in some

Video "Slava's Snowshow" from ootOnJaooBildgewaltige Offenbarung eines faszinierenden Universums der Gefühle, Triumph der Fantasie, ein Kosmos außergewöhnlicher Ideen, berührender Musik und vor allem das seltene Geschenk reiner Empfindung – das ist das international euphorisch gefeierte Bühnenereignis Slava´s Snowshow. „Absolut atemberaubend“, schreibt die Londoner Daily Mail. „Eine Show, die tief berührt und zugleich die Lachmuskeln attackiert“, schwärmt die New York Times. Die Künstler des herausragenden Ensembles um den legendären russischen Clown-Visionär Slava Polunin sind – viel mehr als nur Spaßmacher – vor allem Zauberer und Wundertäter, die mit kleinsten Bewegungen und unglaublich präziser Mimik und Gestik großartige, stille Momente voller Poesie, spannungsvoller Ruhe und strahlender Schönheit erschaffen. Die Grenzen zwischen Fantasie und Realität, Melancholie und Glück verschwimmen in dieser rauschhaften, atmosphärisch dichten Traumwelt, die vom Publikum auf einer Wolke aus Euphorie, Spannung und Entzücken bereist wird. Das Wunder dieser Show vollzieht sich in den Herzen der Zuschauer, die - zurückversetzt in das Paradies ihrer Kindheit - schlussendlich mit dem spektakulären Finale der Show einen der beeindruckendsten Momente erleben, der überhaupt je auf Bühnen stattgefunden hat. „Es raubt einem den Verstand. Slava´s Snowshow erreicht etwas, das ich selten erlebt habe: einen spontanen Ausbruch spielerischer Energie, der das gesamte Publikum in einer Seifenblase aus purem Entzücken aufspringen ließ. Magisch!“ schreibt der London Daily Telegraph. Umwerfend, verblüffend, aufregend und voller Überraschungen ist Slava´s Snowshow ein fantastisches aufwühlendes Bühnenereignis. Unbeschreiblich. Unglaublich. Unvergesslich. Tags:show schnee russisch snow clown fantasy humor dream fantasie poesie energie energy russian dreamworld slava snowshow visionär visionary polunin s
