Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warrior Zorras always takes what he wants—and he wants her. When Karla flees Earth for the safety of planet New Vaxx, the last thing she expects is for one of the huge aliens to show an interest in her. Yet the sexy Vaxxlian warrior named Zorras keeps coming around, and he even threatens to kidnap her. Good thing she’s a fast runner. She tries to convince Zorras he’s wasting his time—she’s too old to have his children—but this news doesn’t deter him in the least. He insists she’s the loveliest female he’s ever seen and claims he recognizes her as his one true mate. But even if he’s telling the truth, Karla is nervous about mating with a Vaxxlian. Her first marriage wasn’t a happy one and she never planned to marry again—let alone enter an everlasting mating bond with a bossy, Vaxxlian warrior. She’ll just ignore the handsome alien and hope he goes away. Yep, that’ll work. Or will it? After losing his first mate during the war, Zorras longs for a second chance. The lonely widower doesn’t care that Karla can’t have offspring—he only wants her. He’s convinced they’re soulmates, and he keeps trying to make her visit Vaxxlian Matchmakers so the psychics can verify what he already knows. Surely if one of the psychic matchmakers tells Karla that Zorras is her one true mate, she’ll agree to become his wife. But the pretty human is frustratingly strong-willed and refuses to do as he says. Maybe he’ll follow through with his threat to kidnap her, after all. What could possibly go wrong?

By the late 1930s, movie studios had established music departments, and some of the greatest names in film music emerged during Hollywood’s Golden Age, including Alfred Newman, Max Steiner, Dimitri Tiomkin, and Bernard Herrmann. Over the decades, other creators of screen music offered additional memorable scores, and some composers—such as Henry Mancini, Randy Newman, and John Williams—have become household names. The Encyclopedia of Film Composers features entries on more than 250 movie composers from around the world. It not only provides facts about these artists but also explains what makes each composer notable and discusses his or her music in detail. Each entry includes Biographical material Important dates Career highlights Analysis of the composer’s musical style Complete list of movie credits This book brings recognition to the many men and women who have written music for movies over the past one hundred years. In addition to composers from the United States and Great Britain, artists from dozens of other countries are also represented. A rich resource of movie music history, The Encyclopedia of Film Composers will be of interest to fans of cinema in general as well as those who want to learn more about the many talented individuals who have created memorable scores.

Download or read book Eastern European Youth Cultures in a Global Context written by Matthias Schwartz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demise of state Socialisms caused radical social, cultural and economic changes in Eastern Europe. Since then, young people have been confronted with fundamental disruptions and transformations to their daily environment, while an unsettling, globalized world substantially reshapes local belongings and conventional values. In times of multiple instabilities and uncertainties, this volume argues, young people prefer to try to adjust to given circumstances than to adopt the behaviour of potential rebellious, adolescent role models, dissident counter-cultures or artistic breakings of taboo. Eastern European Youth Cultures in a Global Context takes this situation as a starting point for an examination of generational change, cultural belongings, political activism and everyday practices of young people in different Eastern European countries from an interdisciplinary perspective. It argues that the conditions of global change not only call for a differentiated evaluation of youth cultures, but also for a revision of our understanding of 'youth' itself – in Eastern Europe and beyond.

Download or read book The Birth of the American Horror Film written by Gary Don Rhodes and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explains how the American horror movie came into existence. Although early cinema has long been a key area of research in film studies, the origin and development of the horror film has been a neglected subject for what is arguably one of the world's most popular film genres. Using thousands of primary sources and long-unseen illustrations, 'The Birth of the American Horror Film' examines a history that begins in colonial Salem, taking an interdisciplinary approach to explore the influence of horror-themed literature, theatre and visual culture in America, and how that context established an amorphous structural foundation for films produced between 1895 and 1915. Exhaustively researched, bridging scholarship on Horror Studies and Early Cinema, 'The Birth of the American Horror Film' is the first major study dedicated to this vital but often overlooked subject. Suitable for use on courses focusing on Film History, Genre and Horror.
