Tiny Review: Becket 1964. Royal friends to enemies.

This definitely peaked my interest about the real Thomas Becket, leading to the discovery of the origin of *Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?*

Becket is a 1964 British historical drama film directed by Peter Glenville. It is a dramatic film adaptation of the 1959 play Becket or the Honour of God by Jean Anouilh. The film stars Richard Burton as Thomas Becket and Peter O'Toole as King Henry II, with John Gielgud as King Louis VII, Donald Wolfit as Gilbert Foliot, Paolo Stoppa as Pope Alexander III, Martita Hunt as Empress Matilda, Pamela Brown as Queen Eleanor, Siân Phillips, Felix Aylmer, Gino Cervi, David Weston and Wilfrid Lawson.

Jesus faces temptation alone in the desert

1-2 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit up into the desert, to be tempted by the devil. After a fast of forty days and nights he was very hungry.

3 “If you really are the Son of God,” said the tempter, coming to him, “tell these stones to turn into loaves.”

4 Jesus answered, “The scripture says ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God’.”

5-6 Then the devil took him to the holy city, and set him on the highest ledge of the Temple. “If you really are the Son of God,” he said, “Throw yourself down. For the scripture says—‘He shall give his angels charge concerning you,’ and ‘In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone’.”

7 “Yes,” retorted Jesus, “and the scripture also says ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God’.”

8-9 Once again the devil took him to a very high mountain, and from there showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their magnificence. “Everything there I will give you,” he said to him, “if you will fall down and worship me.”

10 “Away with you, Satan!” replied Jesus, “the scripture says, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only you shall serve’.”

11 Then the devil let him alone, and the angels came to him and took care of him.

Jesus begins his ministry, in Galilee, and calls his first disciples

12-16 Now when Jesus heard that John had been arrested he went back to Galilee. He left Nazareth and came to live in Capernaum, a lake-side town in the Zebulun-Naphtali territory. In this way Isaiah’s prophecy came true: ‘The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles: the people who sat in darkness saw a great light, and upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death, light has dawned’.

17 From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, “You must change your hearts—for the kingdom of Heaven has arrived.”

18-19 While he was walking by the lake of Galilee he saw two brothers, Simon (Peter) and Andrew, casting their large net into the water. They were fishermen, so Jesus said to them, “Follow me and I will teach you to catch men!”

20 At once they left their nets and followed him.

21-22 Then he went further on and saw two more men, also brothers, James and John. They were aboard the boat with their father Zebedee repairing their nets, and he called them. At once they left the boat, and their father, and followed him.

Jesus teaches, preaches and heals

23-25 Jesus now moved about through the whole of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the good news about the kingdom, and healing every disease and disability among the people. His reputation spread throughout Syria, and people brought to him all those who were ill, suffering from all kinds of diseases and pains—including the devil-possessed, the insane and the paralysed. He healed them, and was followed by enormous crowds from Galilee, The Ten Towns, Jerusalem, Judea and from beyond the river Jordan. — Matthew 4 | J.B.

Siblings in the MCU are more likely to die than only children. Out of 34 sets of siblings in the MCU, 23 have had at least 1 of those siblings die. 7 of those have had 2 or more siblings die. If you have a sibling in the MCU there is only a 1 in 3 chance that both of you will survive. By individual deaths for siblings that is 28 dead out of 73 characters. or 38%. A survey of 74 characters who are either only children or unspecified saw 17 out 74 die, or 23%. If you remove the unspecified character from that list, leaving only confirmed only children there are 47 characters with 12 deaths for 26%. Meaning you are 10-15% more likely to die in the MCU if you have a sibling.

HIIIIII I've been busy with some exams and student stuff. Buuuut here's a little drawing of my boy Henry :3 Why is he with a phone? I don't know, don't ask, just enjoy it

Template made by: @jimothy-hopkins B)

Some facts about this horrible specimen

He is a serious and introverted person, he doesn't know how to socialize so he doesn't have many friends. He has no filters when he speaks, so many people don't like him very much.

Most cliques don't have much respect for him (and he doesn't have much respect for other cliques either).

Nerds are afraid of him, he doesn't bully them directly but he does intimidate or scare them. (Is that understood?) He is a little disgusted by most nerds, he only tolerates them because his sister is there.

He usually hangs out with Bryce and Chad, sometimes with Parker. He usually listens to them because he never knows what to talk about.

He has a talent with musical instruments, although he doesn't consider it that way, He spends his money on all kinds of curious instruments. His room is full of rare instruments that you probably didn't know existed.

He hates being the center of attention and crowds, but when he is playing he feels like he disconnects from the world. That is why he often participates in the ceremonies or musical events organized by Mrs. Peters.

He's terrible at art, but he tries. Mrs. Phillip really tries to support him (The reason he doesn't fail art is because Mrs. Phillip feels bad for him and because he really tries to improve)

For some strange reason he doesn't like Jimmy, Pete and Gary. He says he doesn't really know why but he doesn't like them.

[mariacallous]

In the first season of the Tudor-era drama “Wolf Hall,” Anne Boleyn’s brief queendom was undone by rumors. Just three years after she became the second of Henry VIII’s six wives, in 1533, Anne (played by Claire Foy) landed in the Tower of London following accusations of adulterous dalliances, including with her own brother. Her beheading was a ghastly sight, shocking even to the man who had done much to bring it about—the King’s adviser Thomas Cromwell (Mark Rylance), who used threats of ruin and torture to drum up witnesses against Anne. Now, in the show’s second season, Cromwell becomes the subject of outlandish gossip himself. There’s practically nothing that his Catholic foes, still smarting at the Church of England’s rejection of papal authority, won’t believe about the man who helped engineer the schism so that Henry (Damian Lewis) could divorce his first wife as part of his ongoing quest to beget a male heir. Some say Cromwell has ensorcelled the sovereign. Maybe the King is dead, and has been for some time: one commoner claims that the adviser has secretly taken the throne and intends to “melt all the crucifixes for cannons to fire on the poor folk.” In the North, where a rebel army prepares to march on London, the statesman has become a monster with which to scare children. Mind yourself, the little ones learn, or “he’ll jump down your throat and bite your liver.”

Season 1 ended with Anne’s decapitation; Season 2, which débuted on March 23rd, ends with Cromwell’s. The six hours of television between those two deaths are riveting—partly because the more fearsome Cromwell’s reputation becomes, the more assiduously he strives in private for moral redemption. Immediately after Anne’s execution, Henry had warmly embraced Cromwell; while the monarch beamed, thinking perhaps of his impending nuptials to Jane Seymour (Kate Phillips), the adviser could barely conceal his dismay at what they’d accomplished. Early in the première of the new season, the series’ director, Peter Kosminsky, deploys one of his most effective flourishes, cutting between Anne’s final moments and Henry’s wedding to Jane. As the newly emboldened King tests the limits of his power, Cromwell struggles to remain a loyal servant amid his growing unease about Henry’s ideas and tactics. He believes that the King, in his role as reformer of the Church, doesn’t go far enough, and that, as the father of an obstinately Catholic daughter—Mary (Lilit Lesser), his firstborn—the monarch is startlingly reckless.

“Wolf Hall” is a PBS/BBC adaptation of the novelist Hilary Mantel’s trilogy of the same name. The second season arrives a decade after its predecessor, but the two halves display remarkable consistency, having been not only directed entirely by Kosminsky but also written entirely by Peter Straughan, who won a screenplay Oscar earlier this month, for the film “Conclave.” The original season covered the first two novels in Mantel’s trilogy; this one dramatizes the events of the third novel, from which it takes its subtitle, “The Mirror and the Light.” Season 2 is arguably greater than its acclaimed predecessor. Cromwell’s middle-aged regrets build poignantly, while brisker pacing and some levity—Cromwell is widowed, and various courtiers take it upon themselves to play matchmaker—lend the proceedings a teeming liveliness.

In the first season, Cromwell, then in his forties, still saw himself as a vengeful son. Having escaped his humble origins through a legal education, he was ferociously loyal to the surrogate father he found in Cardinal Wolsey (Jonathan Pryce), a once beloved confidant of the King who, in the end, scarcely fared better than Henry’s discarded wives. After Anne’s death, a more paternal side of Cromwell appears—augmented, perhaps, by the loss of his own young daughters to sudden illness, a few years earlier. He pleads for mercy for those he believes to have been carried away by youthful folly, such as Mary, whom Henry “bastardized” when he annulled his marriage to his first wife. Demoted from princess to plain Lady Mary, she flirts with fatal defiance when she refuses to publicly recognize her father’s negation of his twenty-four-year union with her mother. In so doing, she becomes a dangerously attractive marriage prospect for Vatican allies with eyes on the English throne.

Unlike many period dramas, “Wolf Hall” doesn’t bother to twist history to suit modern preoccupations. Straughan trusts that the machinations of this notorious royal adviser and his king’s marital fecklessness, the consequences of which are still with us five centuries later, are fascinating enough on their own. This makes for an unapologetically cerebral series, demanding close attention to keep track of its sprawling cast, not to mention a host of characters we never see. (Many of them are foreigners who regard Henry’s dominion as a pregnable backwater: “some poor little island full of heretics and sheep.”) But the focus required is amply repaid by a richly detailed snapshot of an England that is not yet a colonial superpower. While Henry worries about the risks of invasion by Spain or of a religious civil war, Cromwell, whom nobles nickname Crumb for his low birth, envisions a world that’s less beholden to ancient hierarchies. Cromwell’s sense of superiority stems from his intelligence, his cosmopolitanism (he has spent time in Europe), and the knowledge that he has made his own fortune. When an ally cautions that, by going after the “oldest, richest families in the land,” Cromwell is making too many enemies, the statesman flashes a grin—a rare break from Rylance’s bewitching understatedness—and compares their imminent destruction to “jugs in an earthquake.” But the self-made upstart underestimates the extent to which his alienation of the aristocracy leaves him perilously dependent on a fickle ruler.

When Henry isn’t admiring his own portrait, like a ginger Narcissus, he spends much of “Wolf Hall” fretting that he’ll be remembered for his inability to beget a son to succeed him. (Eventually, he gets his wish: Jane Seymour gives birth to the future Edward VI, but dies days afterward.) In fact, he is now chiefly remembered for going through queens as if they were disposable broodmares. (The pop-feminist takeaway of the Broadway musical “Six,” about Henry’s wives, is that he, and we, treated his brides interchangeably.) The series, like Mantel’s novels, humanizes the oft-villainized Cromwell, but its most refreshing creation is perhaps its version of Henry. Seldom seen in closeup, the King is framed as Cromwell regards him—a distant figure to be simultaneously feared and managed, like a captive lion. In contrast to the ever-prune-faced Cromwell, Henry undergoes significant bodily deterioration during the decade in which the two seasons take place, and Lewis delivers a magnificently physical performance of a man who feels his virility slipping away. Henry’s self-awareness—and his self-pity—allows him to recognize his emasculation; he grumbles to Cromwell that he has to “breed for the nation.” No wonder, then, that this aging jock in velvet and furs is at his giddiest when making plans to dress up as a Turk or a shepherd, resorting to boyish pranks in such garb when manhood becomes a duty.

Cromwell loses the King’s favor after his suggestion for wife No. 4 goes awry: Henry, betrothed to Anne of Cleves (Dana Herfurth) sight unseen, is crushed to discover that she doesn’t live up to her portrait and recoils at the sight of him. It’s a credit to the series that, though history determines the plot’s immovable destination, exactly where we are headed moment to moment rarely feels predictable. Not all the detours are worthwhile; there are too many flashbacks and conversations with Wolsey’s ghost, as well as an unconvincing story line in which Cromwell is tempted to withdraw from court—a tired iteration of the trope of the grizzled veteran who dies just before a long-awaited retirement. But for the most part the scripts stay commendably true to Cromwell’s grounded point of view, refusing to manufacture the kind of climactic confrontations on which TV dramas thrive. When Henry decides that Cromwell will follow Anne Boleyn to the Tower, the two men don’t face off or exchange their grievances or relive their past together. The result is all the more unsettling for it. Cromwell is instead forced to plead his case to his jumped-up, cocky juniors—the final indignity for a man who knows that he could bring forth “brave new days,” if only he had more time.

i probably haven't read enough Golden Age Comics to make this (I've barely read any, really), but I just spent the whole weekend making this list of birthdates for Earth-Two DC heroes and villians. I could've been working on my Christmas List! But no! My brain just had to get fixated on this. So here it is. This thing I didn't need to make, but my brain wouldn't let me stop working on. So here's a long list of names and birthdays. Nobody asked for this, and it was hellish to make. But my brain still expects me to make three more of these! sigh...

Hello Dr. Reames, I was just curious, what actor(s) are your fancast for Alexander? Because I've seen some people recommend Mike Faist (with blond hair) and Zane Phillips. While I like Mike's look, he doesn't (imo) have the right voice for Alexander, whereas I think Zane does, even if he doesn't necessarily look like what Alexander probably would've looked like. I'm curious to hear what you think of these suggestions lol.

Periodically, this question comes up.

Mostly, my opinion is that whoever is cast as Alexander should be an unknown, not unlike what Netflix did with Buck Braithwaite. He wasn’t a complete unknown, but not widely recognizable. Their Hephaistion (Will Stevens) was even less known. For that matter, once upon a time, William Shatner wasn’t known when he played Alexander in a never-aired TV pilot, or Richard Burton when he took the role in the 1956 film. Both gained fame later.

The problem in casting an actor who’s already known is that he brings baggage from his prior roles. It becomes hard to see him as Alexander, rather than ___ playing Alexander. He also needs to be young. Everyone heretofore cast (Shatner, Burton, Farrell, and Braithwaite, York) were TOO OLD. Alexander died at 32 and was only 22 when he invaded. Zane Phillips would have the same problem.

Again, I’d prefer somebody (mostly) unknown and in his early 20s.

With charisma in SPADES.

Charisma is more important than a particular look, or voice. I didn’t hate Braithwaite, but I was not fond of Farrell—and even less of Jared Leto as Hephaistion. Farrell is a good actor, but I think better in more intimate, intense roles (like Phonebooth). He could not carry Alexander. Richard Burton was too wooden, but that was somewhat the style of the times. Tom York (The History Channel) was also a bit wooden, and he doesn't have the same excuse. Shatner came closest in bravado and carriage (and he was shortish and muscular too).

Yet we really need somebody the likes of Peter O’Toole. The power he brought to Lawrence of Arabia or A Lion in Winter (Henry II) would have made a good Alexander. But again, it would be hard to see Alexander, not O’Toole-as-Alexander, at least once he’d gained his fame. (And… too old.)

A while back I did say I’d finally seen an actor who, were he younger, I could see as Alexander: Austin Butler. After I saw him play Elvis, I knew he could pull off Alexander.

But again—and even with his baby-face—he’s just too old. He’s now older than Alexander ever lived to be. Even if someone were to magically have a script and funding to start tomorrow, it’d be a reach, and more so by the time anyone would be interested in trying Alexander again.

So once more … just find somebody not previously known, in his early 20s (so he can convincingly play late teens…which neither Farrell nor Braithwaite could do), and who LIGHTS up a soundstage just by walking onto it—like Butler or O’Toole. Sheer brash carriage. A boyish face, shorter stature, and muscular build would be plusses.

Once upon a time, when Baz Luhrman was still in the race against Stone to make an Alexander film, he had Matt Damon tagged for Alexander at one point. Damon could do it too, but even then, he was too well-known. Now too well-known and far too old. But in his Good Will Hunting or Talented Mr. Ripley days, he’d have been a decent choice, imo. I’m curious how he’ll do as Odysseus, although Ralph Fiennes OWNED that role in The Return.

But the problem has always been producers looking for a star to play Alexander, instead of looking for stars to populate the cast around Alexander (and Hephaistion).

Fourth MLM Ship Bracket Propaganda Submissions

Below you will find all of the submitted and approved ships for the Fourth MLM Ship Bracket Tournament along with the form to submit further propaganda at the bottom

This is another opportunity to submit propaganda for your favorite ships. Wether you were unable to submit propaganda for them in the initial form or you spot your favorite ship who has no propaganda submitted. Ships with a strikethrough have propaganda submitted, I will continue to update this post as propaganda is submitted. I will accept further propaganda for ships with already submitted propaganda but please prioritize those with out.

The goal is to have propaganda for all ships but I understand that may not be possible. Therefore I will be leaving the form open for a few weeks to see if we receive propaganda for at least half the ships.

Note: Please reach out to me if you spot any mistakes in character or fandom names, even if it is only formatting or spelling issues.
