『Enjoy the journey and try to get better every day. And don't lose the passion and the love for what you do.』 . 距今44年前,西元1976年的7月18日,來自東歐羅馬尼亞,當時年僅14歲的體操小將柯曼尼奇(Nadia Elena Comăneci,1961-),於加拿大蒙特婁所舉行的第二十一屆夏季奧運(Games of the XXI Olympiad,#Montreal)賽場上,憑藉著幾近無瑕的身手,締造了歷史性的「完美時刻」!因為柯曼尼奇成為近代奧林匹克運動史上,首位能夠在體操競技項目裡奪下「10分」滿分的選手! . 彷若是為柯曼尼奇自己所量身打造的奧運吧?那不凡的身段和體操技巧,光她一人在蒙特婁奧運體操項目中就接連勇奪七次的10分滿分成績,後來更因此贏得了3金牌、1銀與1銅…尤其在場上,她一襲純白配上羅馬尼亞國旗色調的體操服,宛如銀河仙子般的秀美體態,所以還被媒體記者們冠上了「白色妖精」的雅號呢! . 奧運閉幕後,羅馬尼亞代表團以排名全體參賽國第九名的4面金牌(贏過英國、法國、義大利等)成績,光榮凱旋,而居功厥偉的「白色妖精」柯曼尼奇,除了被羅國共黨政府授予鐵幕世界最高榮譽的「祖國英雄」(別忘記了,「冷戰」尚未結束)稱呼,更在當年8月份,同一時間登上了《#TIME》時代雜誌、《#Newsweek》新聞周刊與《Sports Illustrated》體育畫刊,這三本美國主流雜誌的封面!且作為非政治人物或宗教領袖,這項空前的殊榮,四十餘年以來,至今仍未有人得以企及… . 但是,光彩奪目的背後,運動員頭上的桂冠,有時卻是佈滿荊棘與鮮血的... . 『One of the most difficult times in my life was when I escaped from Romania in November of 1989.』 . 將鏡頭拉長至西元1989年,在美蘇核武冷戰終結前夕,歷經8年外界鮮為人知,慘遭共黨權貴之子長期性侵的暗黑歷史中,昔日的「白色妖精」柯曼尼奇,決心賭上性命、突破牢籠,她選擇用跑步和游泳的方式,費盡六個小時,每分每秒的生死關鍵,最終成功突破羅馬尼亞國境,後續並取道匈牙利、奧地利,順利逃出生天,在國際友人的協助下投奔自由,來到新大陸... . 西元1994年生日那天,柯曼尼奇與美籍運動員康納(Bart Conner)相知相惜,許下終身;2年後,她獲邀返回已推動民主化的羅馬尼亞,洗刷過往被共黨誣陷的叛國者惡名,與夫婿在首都布加勒斯特舉行隆重且蒙受祝福的婚禮。 . 今日定居美國,數次被媒體評選為史上最佳女性運動員的柯曼尼奇,擁有著美國和羅馬尼亞雙重國籍,亦擔任著羅馬尼亞體育大使、羅馬尼亞奧委會名譽主席、國際體操聯合會委員等重要職務,更被後輩選手尊稱為「體操皇后」,且隨著國際奧委會正式將體操選手參賽年齡資格提升到16��之後,她於當年14歲時所締造出的偉大成就,未來將不再有人超越,「白色妖精」的身影,已昇華為體壇文化的不朽經典了。 . 最後,小編要特別多嘴一下,柯曼尼奇的生日是11月12日啊!(唉唷,跟小編同一天呢!) . #歷史上的今天 #7月 #romania #great #olympics #sport #today #onthisday #history #july #love @olympics https://www.instagram.com/p/CCze5AeHZBx/?igshid=1xwpotq08dwd4

This Was Canada in the 1970s
This week on NFB.ca we’re celebrating the 1970s in all their bell-bottomed glory. I thought I’d do something a little different with this post and highlight five significant moments in Canada during that turbulent decade, along with an NFB film relating to each. (Please note: these are my subjective picks of compelling moments, and obviously I can’t cover everything, so many notable events are not included.)
January 4, 1970: Canada withdraws from IIHF international hockey events
There’d been a long-running dispute between Canada and the International Ice Hockey Federation about the use of amateurs versus professionals in international hockey tournaments, including the Olympics and the World Hockey Championships. In 1970 this came to a head when the IIHF chose Canada to host the World Championships with the promise of allowing some pros to play, but then rescinded that promise. Canada was infuriated, withdrew from hosting the games, and later withdrew from all IIHF events. This rift lasted until 1976, when the IIHF and Hockey Canada finally made up. Below is a great film about the UBC Thunderbirds touring China to play local teams and mentor young Chinese players—showing how truly universal this great game had become in the early 1970s.

October 5, 1970: The start of the October Crisis
I was nine at the time of this tragic moment in the history of our country. All I remember is seeing soldiers in downtown Montreal but not understanding the implications of this, and why my parents looked so worried. Robin Spry’s seminal documentary takes a sobering look at this devastating crisis in great detail. See for yourself what happened that October.

January 1, 1972: Cigarette advertising on television and radio ends in Canada
I recently saw an ad from the 1960s where Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble extoled the virtues of Winston cigarettes!! Yes, cigarettes were advertised on television as far back as the 1940s. Here is one of our animated films from 1973, in which the hypocrisy of cigarette advertising is mocked.

October 1973: The Oil Crisis
Canada was one of the countries targeted by the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries in an embargo on oil exports because it had supported Israel during the 1973 Yom Kippur War. As a result, the price of oil skyrocketed, eventually leading to a stock market crash. Canada then decided to speed up the development of its own oil industry and put a lot of effort in exploiting the oil sands in Alberta. This film from 1986 tackles the boom-bust economic cycles of Alberta oil during this critical period and beyond, exploring how they affected the people of Canada.

July 17, 1976: Start of the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal
I remember the 1976 Olympics like it was yesterday. They were a major source of pride for Montrealers (and all Canadians). To make the Games of the XXI Olympiad, the official film of the ’76 Olympics, 32 separate film crews from the NFB were employed (168 people in all, including three directors) and a total of 200 hours of footage was shot. The editor and his four assistants took five weeks just to view the material, and months to edit it down to the final two-hour-long film. The result was worth it: the film is simply sublime, capturing key events during the competition and many wonderful, candid moments outside of it.
oehttps://www.nfb.ca/film/games_of_the_xxi_olympiad/
So there it is: five important moments in the 1970s, as chosen by me.
Enjoy.
