Download or read book Psycho in the Shower written by Philip J. Skerry and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2009-04-01 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a brilliant study of one scene in one movie: the shower scene from Psycho. Every other chapter is an extended interview with someone who worked on the original film, or on Gus van Sant's remake from a few years ago. The non-interview chapters take various approaches to film criticism, and refer often to the author and his writing of this book. It's lightly done, but compelling and often very entertaining.
Download or read book The Pope and the Witch written by Dario Fo and published by Samuel French, Inc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 1997 Nobel Prize for Literature, Dario Fo's name is synonymous with anarchic political comedy. His best known plays in English include Accidental Death of an Anarchist, Can't Pay, Won't Pay and Trumpets and Raspberries. But for over thirty years Fo, often in collaboration with his wife, Franca Rame, has led the field in political satire in Europe: capitalism, imperialism and corruption in the Italian government being the main targets for his ideologically inspired attack. For performance outside Italy, his comedies are frequently adapted to reflect local political conditions. Drawing on all forms of popular theatre, Fo's reputation as a skilled actor, mime, and director equals that of his writing. Abducting Diana (Il ratto della Francesca) is also published by Oberon Books. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.

Download or read book The White Angel written by E. B. Cross and published by Blackstone Publishing. This book was released on 2013-05-20 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The men she recruited to run her Amazon empire of drugs and death called her the White Angel. The ultrasecret US agency known as the Committee called her the most dangerous woman in the world. The blonde had skin of peaches and cream, cornflower-blue eyes, and legs that went all the way to heaven. She looked like an angel, but no man or woman ever killed more ruthlessly-or enjoyed it more. Killing her was Sam Borne's next assignment. To succeed he'd have to use every fighting skill he learned as a commando in Vietnam ... and as a ninja assassin. But even his superb training might not be enough to save his life when he is face-to-face with a woman so beautiful that he wants her love just as much as he wants her dead.
Download or read book Hitchcock s Motifs written by Michael Walker and published by Amsterdam University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the abundant Alfred Hitchcock literature, Hitchcock's Motifs has found a fresh angle. Starting from recurring objects, settings, character-types and events, Michael Walker tracks some forty motifs, themes and clusters across the whole of Hitchcock's oeuvre, including not only all his 52 extant feature films but also representative episodes from his TV series. Connections and deeper inflections that Hitchcock fans may have long sensed or suspected can now be seen for what they are: an intricately spun web of cross-references which gives this unique artist's work the depth, consistency and resonance that justifies Hitchcock's place as probably the best know film director ever. The title, the first book-length study of the subject, can be used as a mini-encyclopaedia of Hitchcock's motifs, but the individual entries also give full attention to the wider social contexts, hidden sources and the sometimes unconscious meanings present in the work and solidly linking it to its time and place.

Book excerpt: Imagine being given the chance for revenge with the backing of an army. The Jasden Massacre happened eight years ago and still haunts the survivors today. It will take a prince, a knight-sorcerer, and a cursed witch to bring down the court of the Sleeping Queen and restore his country’s balance. Prince Derek wants the throne to save his country from ruin. But the Sleeping Queen’s supporters want him dead. In order to take the crown, Derek will need to draw out his enemies with the promise to wake Queen Fazune using the Witch’s Crystal. The Crystal is in the Netherworld, and it will take a powerful witch and even more powerful sorcerer to get it. Tannis, his family disgraced by the cowardliness of his father, will embark on the journey and clear his family’s name. The witch, Amabel, is eccentric and more than a little annoying, and her family’s secrets make him wonder if they can be trusted. Fighting his attraction, he protects her from danger—and sometimes herself. Amabel has her own needs for the Crystal and Queen Fazune. She cares little for Derek so long as he doesn’t interfere with her plans. On the other hand, she doesn’t mind the powerful sorcerer Tannis as a distraction. As they travel, she lays the plans to bring down the current crown of Lensavine. With her family’s lives on the line, she will do whatever it takes. Even if she has to die. Derek, Tannis, and Amabel will join forces. Each will right past wrongs while facing death, as each has their own reason to bring Queen Fazune to her knees. Together they will save not only Lensavine but the world.
