Slave For The Day Stories
+ DE 1001 FILMS: 1089 - Mississippi Burning
after midnight on Sunday 21 June 1964, three young civil rights activists Americans, Michael Schwerner and Andrew Goodman, Jewish New Yorkers, and James Chaney, a black born in Meridian, Mississippi, disappeared while returning to this city. They had been inspecting the ruins of a church that had been burned in Neshoba County border. On August 4, research conducted by the FBI, at the behest of President Lyndon B. Johnson, came up with the corpses had been buried in a landfill near an abandoned farm. The bodies showed signs of violence and gunfire. The subsequent judicial development showed that the government of the county and the Ku Klux Klan was behind the killings. The Freedom summer, the summer of freedom, time when African Americans were registered in the magnolia state so that they could exercise their right to vote, beginning stained with blood and hatred. Twenty years later, Alan Parker released his version of events: Mississippi Burning (Mississippi Burning). A kick to the genitals of the American empire.
To avoid hurt feelings, Alan Parker placed the action in the fictional Jessup County. He arrived a group of men from the FBI under the command of the inexperienced and prudent agent Alan Ward (Willem Dafoe) and his partner Rupert Anderson (Gene Hackman), with more years of service, more realistic, therefore, and a cynical and sarcastic when listening to his superior that there are things worth dying, contends that some there believe that there are things worth killing. Gradually, suspicions were confirmed: the mayor, the sheriff's office, they all lie and hide the truth. But the impossibility of proving the obvious, that the wishes of the KKK are orders, is accompanied by fire, crosses, nooses, riots, beatings, lynchings and meetings of ghosts without hoods. When Ward discovered that the worm can only be opened from the inside, it's time for Anderson, who had a time winning the heart of a nice hairdresser and housewife, the frustrated Mrs. Pell (Frances McDormand), wife of Clinton Pell (Brad Dourif), a deputy sheriff.
Alan Parker filmed a superb dramatic recreation of some reprehensible acts that concerned, and much, to a society that was finding that this time the war was being waged at home. Although recognized as a brilliant director of actors, known here to get the best of them all, especially Frances McDormand, exceptional in each of his trembling gestures, and some luxury side, among them Ronald Lee Ermey (the Mayor Tilman), Michael Rooker (the fascist voice breaking), Pruitt Taylor Vincent (the scary Klan member) and Stephen Tobolowsky (Townley, most of the pointy heads), and despite the remarkable artistic production and costume (of Tobolowsky believe many of the extras that appeared on the scene of the rally of his character were real members of the KKK, and no reason not to, knows what he speaks: he comes from a family known for its struggle for equal rights), was in the planning of the scenes where he achieved more success and impact on the public, making unforgettable ride of well-dressed FBI agents for the swamp, the water waist ; the intrusions of Anderson in the social club and the barbershop, especially the ending with the Clinton Pell body spinning in a chair, the blow to Ward and the subsequent fight that ends when draws his weapon, the barn on fire with its owner's body hanging from a nearby tree, the masked men waiting for the exit of the parishioners of Mass, the incriminating confession extorted by a black man wielding a razor blade to a white kidnapped, torture Tarantino certainly has screened more than once, pictures and dialogues in which slowly choking rage, in which nothing is neglected, as no name in the female lead, a humiliation executed in the name of tradition and family. Indeed, in Mississippi the clocks are set back a century.
Despite the success of the film, with the criticism by announcing that he had forgotten Parker the box office, outcomes with fright at the last roll of the musical entertainments, and had returned to the successful path of film denunciation, Midnight Express (Midnight Express, 1978), or perhaps because of that the director felt he had not said everything about the racial segregation and became involved in a love Asian WASP just as the bombing of Pearl Harbor: Come see the paradise (Welcome to paradise, 1990). Committed the blunder of talking about xenophobia through love, sentiment latent in Mississippi burning perhaps not consummated before the viewer's eyes became more special and credible, by the way that facilitated the digestion of horror that attended. And the story of a housewife who gives the stranger had been seen a thousand times and I would then let us remember the photographer Clint Eastwood, but when it comes to talking about such thorny issues as racism, it left in a very quiet background.

Baterry Operated Blankets For Camping
while providing
Margaret Schroeder and Thompson Nucky 
Nucky Thompson, treasurer of Atlantic City Steve Buscemi in the latest confirmation of the supremacy of the cable television on the Hollywood film Boardwalk Empire, supported in his first series season by Martin Scorsese, walk knowing that each has to decide for itself how much sin can live, which confirms that politicians should have a very broad back to withstand the inevitable weight of his office, his conscience. Thus, al-Gaddafi should be very thick shoulders and back strong to withstand the weight of so much dead brother, or perhaps carrying a backpack to help in the task, basket concealed under the long, loose dresses curtains robes mode: both given. And who says the Libyan military, says the King of Morocco, for similar reasons as moral and sometimes even in the aesthetics, the Minister of Labour and Immigration Swedish, go in search of talent in the south of Europe when their country 230,000 people were sterilized between 1935 and 1996 for reasons of "social and racial hygiene," or the man who lent his pen yesterday while I congratulated you for your excellent new purchase and deny you a match today but I see you in the cold under a bridge next to a pile of wood off.
currently dwindled Western civilization was that good students know that money, fame, success, comfort, are the One and All, that one is worth your address book ( sum of Facebook, iPod, university, friends, family, neighborhood and gym, the order of factors and alter the product, only minimally, and the long time reorders the list of most cost-), \u200b\u200bwhich is better, and easier, to invent a job that access to one, much speculation about the next crisis, which would be the next bubble to burst: China's real estate; the gold, the grain, the land and rare metals, social networks (safe bet), renewable energy, emerging markets, India and Brazil to the head ... The fact is that no one predicted a political catastrophe, natural in a sense, not expansion, that would affect the economic sector with serious and proper weight, such as oil, anytime soon that we will suffer if there is no choice, and appears not to be, and that goes to show the dependence of certain territories in the West and their governments, untouchable as the regular issue invoices. Well, nobody that will certainly get any smart morning reminding his warning in a video posted on TuboTuyo or cut, or folded, the Financial Times . With how easy it would get down to work and rewrite the industrial revolution without oil and its derivatives! Well, not easy, but pleasing themselves. Comfortable it would be if the laws dejasen invent without much bureaucracy and political impediments and whether they had a vocation to serve the people rather than these will help to line their pockets. (And I open a parenthesis to add that I believe what the wads of cash found in the palace of funky Ben Ali, at least not so much: the Romanian press went to say that Ceausescu was the best of leaders when was a dictator, to teach more than 4000 bodies of dissidents executed in Timisoara, where he did not. Of course last time who believe, then told the story or the evidence presented today by deception. And yet some claim read history books, that leaves the novel, fiction, and discover the cause of the fire of Rome under Nero or as the Orinoco had won the last cantamañas cap and gown, if we discuss whether Tejerazo still could see a live broadcast by TVE or not, and it happened 3 decades ago.)
So, waiting for the gas station pumps will move the comma decimal one digit to the right, or two, we can reflect on who they walk with a driver by all of us, because it is not true that perspective needed to judge al-Gaddafi, Mohammed VI, Al Khalifa, or, by changing of air, Binyamin Netanyahu, Hu Jǐntāo, Silvio Berlusconi. What is needed is iberty of choice for those who have to suffer every day, of course, but also arrests of their foreign colleagues for throwing the ears when necessary: \u200b\u200bfor days telling us that we live in a globalized world and it is worth remembering that Hitler was shielded in the words democracy and sovereignty when mistreated Jews and Poles. The problem is that we as Boardawalk defenseless Empire Margaret Schroeder, bordered by the attractive character Kelly Macdonald, when he says that the news is not the same without champagne and looking for his cup, and uncork the bottle without thinking if the news is good or not. While providing for the future is a sign that we are present, and l problem is the Uncorking noise preceding a party held before unforgettable time with a hangover. And this does not mean that al-Gaddafi and a hundred more will stay in their chairs, but quite the opposite.

Why Is My Face Is Uneven
+ DE 1001 FILMS: 1088 - Hold back the dawn
Since a small group of settlers English snuff settle to grow on the banks of the James River, North America was the world as the Promised Land, and anyone could buy a ferry ticket towards the second chance. The cinema was not immune to that dream and an immigrant as Chaplin was the first show, conveniently sweetened, of course: The immigrant (migrant Charlot, 1917). Just three years later, Mitchell Leisen, a native of Michigan, USA passport therefore moved to Hollywood between sets and costumes and learned the craft of directing the side of the great Cecil B. DeMille. Once she learned that the camera should not move arbitrarily, that the hearing should not lose focus, the thread of the story, sat on the stool and gave an extensive production, with titles that do not forgotten by today are smaller, as is the case Hold back the dawn (the Dawn, 1941).
dawn Hold back you is a long flashback in which we witness the story of the script that tries to sell the philandering George Iscovescu (Charles Boyer), of Romanian origin and persecuted by police in California, an old known film director Mr. Saxon (Leisen himself). In it we learn that Iscovescu, wanting to flee from an obscure incident, went to a bustling Mexican border town with the intention to enter the USA, but found the bureaucracy and time seemed to have stopped there, the hotel months in Hope, where she watched her chance, was a conviction, and that the quickest and easiest way to transfer the office was to marry an American, as told Anita Dixon (Paulette Goddard ), the playboy who shared the thrills and dangers in the past and chance did come back in a local tavern. Galán leftover poetic and nice words, found in the teacher Iscovescu Emmy Brown (Olivia de Havilland), the perfect seized, the woman willing to love and surrender. Once spotted the dam, and met the target, marriage, everything was a matter of time. But as often happens whenever there two women and a man, things were not as he would have wanted. And that is when Cupid looks, tense his bow and fires an arrow, targeted to make more armored chest.
With a brisk pace but not mad, Leisen put three of the biggest names in the scene of his time moving-here is to remind the side frames and the lives that intersect at the hotel, emphasis on Walter Abel, who plays Hammock, the inspector in charge of border that gives the impression of being very comfortable in his position as protector and invited by surprise and creates a romantic comedy-the honeymoon by Mexico- a bit sour, a terrible confession to the yeast Anita Emmy-and fairly blatant "disregard of the first victim Iscovescu favors, the wedding night with girlfriend off and inadequate. And if the staff is fantastic, especially Olivia de Havilland when adjusting the lens and decides that, despite the deception, educated at the generosity and always leave a tip, the fact remains that in large part due to the perfection of script. And is that next to the signature of the author of the story, Ketti Frings, who later would become a Pulitzer-winning playwright, was the good work of Charles Brackett and, above all, a certain Billy Wilder, which explains the brilliance of the dialogues, as preceding the time the woman looks flushed the wrong hand in search of the engagement ring or retarding a kiss because of three olives, the fruit of a future that is passionately devoted spouses.
Although over the years would be imposed on reality comedy, down to the frustrations caused by rats Northern (1983), Gregory Nava, facial cream Green card (Marriage of convenience 1990), Peter Weir, intake or drug capsules Maria Full of Grace (Maria Full of Grace, 2004), Joshua Marston, Mitchell Leisen a smile in public Hold back the dawn , one of those 700 films which funded the Paramount between 1929 and 1949 and do not forget, dealing with an issue as thorny as was immigration. A reality that was eventually degenerating to reach the current levels of lawlessness in Tijuana or Ciudad Juarez, places where they converge justification and reach a national craze that opens all doors.
