COMMUNITY REWATCH, 2x05: "Messianic Myths and Ancient Peoples"

-So, Duncan is just spending class time showing YouTube videos?

-I love how confused Pierce is by every video they watch, but hate how sad Shirley is.

-How come Britta is in charge of Pierce's diet?

-Oh no, Pierce is going to start hanging out with Leonard and his friends, isn't he? *sigh* This isn't going to be good.

-Oh Abed, this sounds incredibly complicated.

-That sound cue for "Abed" is so funny.

-Leonard: "Shut your mouth down, fruit." Dean Pelton: "Oh, hey, unacceptable and none of your business, and barely the whole truth." That was more than I needed to know, but I also have questions.....

-Pierce: "Excuse me, mister." Dean Pelton: "What Pierce?" Pierce: "What year is it?" DEAN PELTON YOU KNOW PIERCE! HOW COULD YOU FALL FOR THIS?!?!

-Britta: "Oops, Freudian slip. Perhaps due to my feeling dopey." Shirley: "Do the line, atheist." Damn Shirley.

-I love how you can tell how much Troy and Britta don't want to do this.

-God, I love Abed's costume for his Jesus movie.

-Of course, Chang is involved in Abed's movie.

-The chorus of "Abed" as he is lifted into the air.

-The fact that everyone is so immersed in Abed's movie is both hilarious and ridiculous.

-Damn, that woman was a bit harsh. You don't need to talk to Shirley like that, especially when Shirley is right.

-I love how Jeff and Britta start acting like Pierce's parents.

-Them all screaming in the car and then it cuts to the outside of the car to show the slowest crash ever is hilarious!!!!!

-Abed hating his film is so good.

-Shirley beating up all the equipment with the baseball bat to destroy the movie as a way to answer Abed's prayers is fantastic, but also how does she not get in trouble for destroying school property?

-Jeff acting like a disappointed father picking up his son from jail is great.

-This was a good Abed/Shirley episode.

-This ending scene is so dumb.

Nobody Lives Forever (Jean Negulesco, 1946)

Cast: John Garfield, Geraldine Fitzgerald, Walter Brennan, Faye Emerson, George Coulouris, George Tobias, Robert Shayne, Richard Gaines, Richard Erdman. Screenplay: W.R. Burnett, based on his novel. Cinematography: Arthur Edeson. Art direction: Hugh Reticker, Max Parker. Film editing: Rudi Fehr. Music: Adolph Deutsch. Changes of heart are always risky, especially in film noir, so when Nick Blake (John Garfield) falls in love with the rich widow Gladys Halvorsen (Geraldine Fitzgerald), who has been chosen as the mark in a con game, things get a little screwed up. Originally planned as a vehicle for Humphrey Bogart, Nobody Lives Forever benefits from Garfield's good looks, making the romantic twist a little more interesting. Jean Negulesco, better known for glossy romance than for noir, handles the material well, especially the climactic shootout.

BA (Hons) Philosophy and the Catholic Tradition at Maryvale Institute Reading List

This list is very long, so I am putting it under a read more.  There was a pdf, but a lot of that contains information like exam dates, module guides, assessment details etc that aren’t relevant. I’ve put all the module titles, and the information they gave for their reading list.

Hopefully this is of use to anyone that’s interested in looking into Catholicism, Philosophy, Theology, or is looking to do a degree in philosophy and/or religion. Please do excuse any typos, I did have to type up a lot of this myself.

365 Day Movie Challenge (2019) - #50: Nobody Lives Forever (1946) - dir. Jean Negulesco

Eddie Muller chose Nobody Lives Forever as one of his recent picks for TCM’s Saturday night “Noir Alley,” but this Warner Brothers crime drama is a disappointment for just about everybody involved. I expect a lot out of director Jean Negulesco, who proved his dramatic chops with Humoresque, Deep Valley and Road House; similarly, screenwriter W.R. Burnett (adapting from his own novel I Wasn’t Born Yesterday) had penned either the source material or the screenplays for such hard-boiled films as Little Caesar, High Sierra and This Gun for Hire. And, of course, star John Garfield was one of Hollywood’s elite players in the mid-to-late 1940s, on top of his game with such classics as The Postman Always Rings Twice, the aforementioned Humoresque, Body and Soul, Gentleman’s Agreement and Force of Evil. So the fact that Nobody Lives Forever is such a bust is frankly kind of hard to explain.

Garfield plays Nick Blake, a World War II vet and experienced con man who has recently returned to the States after serving his country in Italy. Upon landing in New York, Nick finds that his girlfriend, Toni Blackburn (perennial “other woman” Faye Emerson), has been two-timing him and lost all his money in some bad investments. Bitter over being double-crossed in such a way, Nick takes a “vacation” to Los Angeles and it doesn’t take much for him to be convinced to take part in a new venture organized by Doc Ganson (George Coulouris, chewing the scenery expertly). Nick, accompanied by his buddy Al Doyle (George Tobias), sets out to seduce widow Gladys Halvorsen (Geraldine Fitzgerald) out of her considerable fortune. Nick doesn’t anticipate falling for Gladys, however, and their sudden love affair poses a threat to the couple as Doc Ganson and his associates get antsy about cashing in on their scheme.

As fine an actress as Geraldine Fitzgerald was, she seems ill-suited to play her role, a little too mild-mannered for such a potentially gritty tale. (Remember, 1946 was the same year that Ava Gardner starred in The Killers and Rita Hayworth embodied the title role in Gilda.) The only real saving grace in the film is her acting and the performances by her peers, who also include Walter Brennan as another of Nick’s acquaintances, Richard Gaines as Gladys’s financial advisor and Richard Erdman as a bellboy with the inside scoop on Nick’s criminal history. With so many talented entertainers, one would think that Nobody Lives Forever would be a guaranteed hit, but its story is full of plot holes and with the exception of its climactic scenes of gunplay on a foggy LA pier, the film rarely attains a true noir mood. From the beginning up until the closing scene, it’s a struggle to take this film seriously.

In memoriam: Actrices y actores que han fallecido en 2019

No queremos acabar el año sin recordar a numerosos rostros conocidos del cine y la televisión que nos han dejado este año:

Cameron Boyce (28/05/99 - 6/07/19)

La estrella de Disney Channel era de ascendencia afrocaribeña y afroamericana. Su abuela paterna fue una de los Clinton Twelve, los primeros afroamericanos en asistir a un instituto de blancos en el sur de Estados Unidos en 1956. Nació en Los Ángeles en 1999, estudió danza desde muy joven y participó en un videoclip de Panic! at the Disco en 2008. Fue el hijo de Kiefer Sutherland en Mirrors y el hijo de Adam Sandler en Grown Ups. Protagonizó la serie Jessie y la trilogía de películas de Descendants, y este año lo hemos podido ver en Mrs. Fletcher. Murió mientras dormía a causa de un ataque de epilepsia, enfermedad de la que se estaba tratando. Tenía veinte años.

Luke Perry (11/10/66 - 4/03/19)

En sus años de instituto, daba vida a la mascota Freddie Bird. Se mudó a Los Ángeles a los dieciocho para ser actor, pero pasó varios años viviendo de otros trabajos y colaborando como extra en videoclips. Tras participar como recurrente en dos culebrones a finales de los 80, saltó a la fama dando vida a Dylan durante diez años en Beverly Hills, 90210. Interpretaba a Fred Andrews en Riverdale desde 2017 cuando falleció a causa de dos derrames cerebrales a los cincuenta y dos años. Tenía dos hijos, Jack iba a cumplir veintidós y Sophie, diecinueve.

Doris Day (3/04/1922 - 13/05/2019)

Nieta de inmigrantes alemanes, tenía la intención de triunfar bailando en Hollywood, pero resultó herida cuando un tren arrolló el coche en el que viajaba. Trabajó como cantante hasta que consiguió una prueba con Warner tras la que encadenó varios éxitos, entre ellos Pillow Talk, con nominación al Oscar incluida; y The Man Who Knew Too Much, de Alfred Hitchcock, donde canta 'Que Sera, Sera', canción ganadora del Oscar en 1956. En los sesenta, tras la muerte de su hermano, comenzó a mostrar agotamiento y dejó el cine en 1968 cuando murió su tercer marido, quien le dejó, sin ella saberlo, una deuda de varios millones de dólares que la ley le acabó devolviendo y un contrato multimillonario con CBS para protagonizar una serie que llevaba su nombre por título y que se mantuvo cinco temporadas en antena. Desde su cuarto matrimonio, en 1976, dedicó su vida al activismo a favor de los animales. Murió por culpa de una neumonía a los noventa y siete años.

Katherine Helmond (5/07/29 - 23/02/19)

Participó en obras teatrales en la escuela, y trabajó montando escenarios, cosiendo trajes, limpiando baños y abriendo el telón en el teatro de Galveston, Texas durante sus años de instituto. En los años 50 y 60, trabajó en teatros de Nueva York y enseñó interpretación en programas de teatro universitario. Le llegó la fama en los años 70 con la televisión. Fue nominada al Tony, trabajó con Hitchcock y consiguió siete nominaciones al Emmy y dos Globos de Oro. La conocemos principalmente por interpretar a Mona en Who's the Boss? entre 1984 y 1992. De familia irlandesa y educación católica, practicaba el budismo zen. Tenía Alzheimer. Iba a cumplir noventa años.

Asunción Balaguer (8/11/25 - 23/11/19)

Hija de un matrimonio de conveniencia dentro de la burguesía catalana, dejó los estudios en la facultad de filosofía y letras por el teatro. Gracias al él, conoció a su marido Paco Rabal, con quien trabajó en varias ocasiones tanto en cine como en televisión. Son los padres de Teresa Rabal. Desde los años 80 vivía en Alpedrete, desde donde cogía el autobús a Madrid para acudir a los ensayos. Ha recibido premios por su actuación en la serie Gran Hotel, la película Las huellas borradas o el musical Follies. Actuó prácticamente hasta el final. La hemos podido ver recientemente en Merlí y en Olmos y Robles. Falleció a los noventa y cuatro años, d��as después de sufrir un ictus.

Peggy Lipton (30/08/1946 - 11/05/2019)

De familia de clase media-alta y de ascendencia judía rusa, tuvo una infancia difícil que le provocó un tartamudeo severo que desaparecería tras independizarse, aunque su vida personal y sentimental también fue dura. Comenzó como modelo y a los diecinueve años ya aparecía en televisión. Durante cinco temporadas protagonizó The Mod Squad dando vida a una delincuente juvenil convertida en policía encubierta, papel por el que estuvo nominada cuatro años consecutivos al Emmy y al Globo de Oro. Cansada de la fama y el acoso de la prensa, se dedicó a criar a sus dos hijas, pero volvió a la televisión con Twin Peaks. Ha tenido pequeños papeles en Alias, Popular o Angie Tribeca, donde interpretaba a la madre del personaje de su hija, Rashida Jones. Fue diagnosticada de cáncer en 2004 y falleció este año a la edad de setenta y dos.

Robert Forster (13/07/1941 - 11/10/19)

Ya actuaba en el instituto, pero se licenció en psicología en la universidad con una beca por jugar a fútbol americano. A los veinticuatro se mudó a Nueva York, pero tras su primer éxito en el teatro le costaba encontrar trabajo, así que regresó a su Rochester natal, en la otra punta del estado, a ganarse la vida como profesor sustituto y albañil. Poco después, un agente de 20th Century-Fox le introduciría en el mundo del cine, y encadenó veinte años de papeles de mayor o menor tamaño. A finales de los 80, su éxito flaqueaba y tenía que conformarse con pequeños roles de villano y dar clases de actuación y sermones motivacionales. Fue entonces cuando llegó Tarantino. A Jackie Brown -con nominación al Oscar incluida- le siguieron el remake de Psycho, Mulholland Drive, The Descendants, las series Heroes, Last Man Standing y Twin Peaks o la película de Breaking Bad, estrenada el día de su muerte a causa de un tumor cerebral a los setenta y ocho años.

Rutger Hauer (23/01/44 - 19/07/19)

De padres actores que solían irse de gira y dejar a los hijos con una niñera, este neerlandés rebelde no pudo ser marinero a los quince años, cuando huyó de casa, debido a su daltonismo, así que no le quedó más remedio que trabajar en la construcción. Sus padres le apuntaron a clases de teatro, las cuales le sirvieron más adelante para convencer a sus superiores de que no era apto para estar en la marina. En los 70 entró de lleno al cine. Sirvió de inspiración a Anne Rice para escribir a Lestat y fue la primera opción para protagonizar RoboCop. En los 80 empezó a ser conocido en Inglaterra por varios anuncios de cerveza Guinness y llegó a Hollywood. Le aconsejaron cambiarse el nombre pero pensó que su paseo americano sería efímero. Habitual del cine de Paul Verhoeven y especializado en interpretar a vampiros, será recordado por Ladyhawke, The Hitcher, Blade Runner, Sin City, Batman Begins, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (la película) o True Blood. Le gustaban la poesía, el activismo por el medio ambiente y diseñar camiones. Una corta enfermedad se lo llevó a los setenta y cinco años.

Eduardo Gómez (27/07-51 - 28/07/19)

Había sido vendedor de enciclopedias, camarero, albañil y dependiente. Tras algunos trabajos de figurante, tuvo una frase en ¡Ay, Señor, Señor! casi por casualidad. Era ya 1994. Muertos de risa, El milagro de P. Tinto o La comunidad formaron un camino que le llevaría a su papel más recordado: Mariano, el padre del portero, en Aquí no hay quien viva. La que se avecina y Gym Tony son otros de sus trabajos destacables. Falleció por un cáncer de laringe. Acababa de cumplir sesenta y ocho años.
