No one other than Warren Zanes, rocker and writer and friend, could author a book about Tom Petty that is as honest and evocative of Petty's music and the remarkable rock and roll history he and his band helped to write. Born in Gainesville, Florida, with more than a little hillbilly in his blood, Tom Petty was a Southern shit kicker, a kid without a whole lot of promise. Rock and roll made it otherwise.

A 13th-century toxic jungle, a bathhouse for tired gods, a red haired fish girl, and a furry woodland spirit - what do these have in common? They all spring from the mind of Hayao Miyazaki, one of the greatest living animators, known worldwide for films such as My Neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle, and The Wind Rises. Japanese culture and animation scholar Susan Napier explores the life and art of this extraordinary Japanese filmmaker to provide a definitive account of his oeuvre.

Unlike most artists, Van Gogh developed very slowly, beginning with work as an art dealer that exposed him to many great works. He undertook this work for several years, after which he spent time as a missionary for the Dutch Reformed Church. After that, he drifted for several years before re-turning home to his parents’ house, where he took up painting, largely self-taught with books on anatomy and painting. His great works all date from the later years of his life.

Ennio Morricone è una leggenda della musica e del cinema. Le sue composizioni hanno accompagnato più di 500 film e sono entrate nel cuore di milioni di spettatori. Ma da dove nasce la sua arte? Il Maestro si apre al microfono del giovane compositore Alessandro De Rosa, suo biografo ed amico. Ci racconta la sua storia, i suoi dubbi e le sue tante conquiste in una conversazione che rappresenta un momento di riflessione personale sulla sua illustre carriera così come sulla sua esperienza di vita e allo stesso tempo un raro e prezioso confronto generazionale.

The casting director for Chicago, Pippin, Becket, Gypsy, The Graduate, The Sound of Music, and Jesus Christ Superstar tells you how you can find your dream role! Absolutely everything an actor needs to know to get the part is here: What to do that moment before; how to use humour; how to create mystery; how to develop a distinct style; and how to evaluate the place, the relationships, and the competition. In fact, Audition is a necessary guide to dealing with all the "auditions" we face in life. This is the bible on the subject.

10 giugno 2014. Con la presa di Mosul, e la successiva proclamazione dello Stato Islamico in Siria e Iraq, non solo si viene a creare una vera e propria enclave terroristica, ma ha inizio la distruzione sistematica e intenzionale della civiltà millenaria dell'antica Mesopotamia. Un drammatico atto di violenza iconoclastica che non ha paralleli nella storia moderna.

Look closely at any typically "American" article of clothing these days, and you may be surprised to see a Japanese label inside. From high-end denim to oxford button-downs, Japanese designers have taken the classic American look - known as ametora, or "American traditional" - and turned it into a huge business for companies like Uniqlo, Kamakura Shirts, Evisu, and Kapital. This phenomenon is part of a long dialogue between Japanese and American fashion.

Enfant, Chris Hooper rêvait souvent de monstres. Mais dans le fin fond de l'espace, il n'a trouvé que la solitude et l'isolement. Une fois arrivés sur la planète LV178, Hooper et ses compagnons de bord ont découvert une terrible tempête de sable, un véritable enfer... et de la trimonite, la matière la plus dure connue de l'homme. Quand une navette s'écrase dans le vaisseau spatial le Marion, les mineurs installés sur la planète apprennent qu'il y avait bien plus que de la trimonite au fond des cavernes.

Dante è il poeta che inventò l'Italia. Non ci ha dato soltanto una lingua; ci ha dato soprattutto un'idea di noi stessi e del nostro Paese: il "bel Paese" dove si dice "sì". Una terra unita dalla cultura e dalla bellezza, destinata a un ruolo universale: perché raccoglie l'eredità dell'Impero romano e del mondo classico; ed è la culla della cristianità e dell'umanesimo. L'Italia non nasce da una guerra o dalla diplomazia; nasce dai versi di Dante. Non solo.

Haïkaï : un recueil des plus beaux haïkus japonais. Un haïkaï est, on le sait, un poème minuscule en trois vers de cinq, sept et cinq syllabes, au total dix-sept. Au pluriel, des haïkus. Que peut-on exprimer dans un cadre aussi étroit ? Peu de chose en surface, beaucoup en profondeur quand le haïkaï est conçu avec art et émotion.

The Star Trek TV and movie series imagine a bright future for humans in space, one in which we explore alien worlds with the aid of advanced technology. Because the writers tried to include as much realistic science as possible within the fictional framework, the stories have been an inspiration for students, scientists, inventors, and anyone interested in pondering our destiny on Earth and beyond. In this show, Brandon Fibbs reviews a Star Trek movie, and Lawrence Krauss talks about how Star Trek uses science to explore what is possible in our universe.

An artist in every sense of the word, Lhasa de Sela wowed audiences around the globe with her multilingual songs and spellbinding performances, mixing together everything from Gypsy music to Mexican rancheras, Americana and jazz, chanson française, and South American folk melodies. In Canada, her album La Llorona won the Juno Award and went gold, and its follow-up, The Living Road, won a BBC World Music Award. Tragically, de Sela succumbed to breast cancer in 2010 at the age of thirty-seven after recording her final album, Lhasa.
