Midnight in Paris Trailer

Paris in the morning is beautiful
Paris in the afternoon is charming
Paris in the evening is enchanting
But Paris after midnight is MAGIC

Midnight in Paris (2011) by Woody Allen

Swan Lake

The Blindness of the Woods.

Winter is hard in Kiruna woods. The trees complain. The squirrels don’t play. The birds don’t sing. And the loneliness makes the cold feel even worse. The sun hides behind the clouds, thinking the low light will bother me… but for me darkness is permanent.

It is said that in these woods, people die from cold but I believe that it’s loneliness that kills them.

My blindness will never stop me from what I always wanted to do… to love.
“Oh thank you! Thank you for returning my man from the woods. I love you.”

Natalie Portman Rap ♥

Notre Dame de Paris Musical, Song 3 "Ou Est-Elle?"

Frollo:

Gringoire qu'as-tu fais de ta femme ?

Qu'on ne voit plus danser à Notre-Dame

Gringoire:

Je n'en sais rien pour être honnête

Vous êtes prêtre et moi poète

Nous n'avons pas des femmes

La même religion, la même poésie

Frollo:

Où est-elle

Ton Esmeralda

Les rues de Paris

Sont tristes sans elle

Gringoire:

Elle est seule

Dans une tourelle

Loin de ceux qui craignent

Qu'on les ensorcelle

Frollo:

Que veux-tu dire poète ?

Tu as la langue fourchue

Ne fais pas de pirouettes

Dis-moi si tu l'as vue

Clopin:

Où est-elle

Mon Esmeralda

La Cour de Miracles

À perdu sa reine

Gringoire:

Elle ressemble

À une hirondelle

À qui on aurait

Coupé les deux ailes

Vous la trouverez

À la prison de "La Santé"

Si vous ne la sauvez

Elle sera condamnée

À être pendue

Clopin:

Ne m'en dites pas plus

Inside the Actors Studio ♥

Inside the Actors Studio is a series on the Bravo cable television channel, hosted by James Lipton. It is produced and directed by Jeff Wurtz; the executive producer is James Lipton. The program, which premiered in 1994, is distributed internationally by CABLEready and is broadcast in 125 countries around the world reaching 89,000,000 homes. It is currently taped at the Michael Schimmel Center for the Arts at Pace University's New York City campus.

The program began as a televised craft seminar for students of the Actors Studio Drama School, originally a joint venture of the Actors Studio and New School University in 1994, with Paul Newman, a former Actors Studio president as its first guest, and soon became Bravo's flagship program. At first taped at the New School's Tishman Auditorium in Greenwich Village, New York City, blocks away from Actors Studio's home in the theater district in midtown Manhattan, and shifting subsequently to its present location, Michael Schimmel Center for the Arts at Pace University's New York City campus. The program is presented as a seminar to students of the Actors Studio Drama School at Pace University.

The show deliberately uses a slower pace in the interviews as compared with a typical celebrity interview, thus cameras usually record a couple of hours' of conversation, later edited to an hour, a trick used by Groucho Marx on his 1950s quiz show You Bet Your Life. The result, as a New York Times article puts it, "In Mr. Lipton's guest chair, actors cease being stars for a while and become artists and teachers." Though sometimes, some interviews go longer, like that during Steven Spielberg 1999 visit, stretched to four hours, and was later shown as two episodes of one hour each. The interviews are guided by Lipton's trademark index-card questions known for well-researched details of guest's life, often startling some. On one such occasion, Billy Crystal told Lipton, "You know you're scary, don't you?”

In May 2005, the contract between the Actors Studio and New School University was not renewed. Beginning with the twelfth season, in the fall of 2005, the program has been taped at the Michael Schimmel Center for the Arts at Pace University's New York City campus. The show now has a new set with a gritty backstage feel, designed by Will Rothfuss for Blair Broadcast Designs, and The Actors Studio Drama School at Pace University has re-opened in new facilities.

Since its premiere, Inside the Actors Studio has had over 200 guests, with Dustin Hoffman being the 200th guest in June 2006. Of those guests, the very first having been Paul Newman, were succeeded by 74 Academy Award winners: 8 directors; four screenwriters; 61 actors and actresses; and two musicians. For its 200th show, James Lipton became the guest subject of the show. He was questioned by Dave Chappelle whom James picked personally. The show ended with Pace University provost announcing that the college is sponsoring a scholarship in Chappelle's name to his high school alma mater. Based on the show, James Lipton published a book titled "Inside Inside" in 2007.

While most of the show is a one-on-one interview conducted by Lipton, this is followed by the host submitting a questionnaire to the guest. The questionnaire concept was originated by Frenchtelevision personality Bernard Pivot, after the Proust Questionnaire. The ten questions Lipton asks are:

1. What is your favorite word?

2. What is your least favorite word?

3. What turns you on?

4. What turns you off?

5. What sound or noise do you love?

6. What sound or noise do you hate?

7. What is your favorite curse word?

8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?

9. What profession would you not like to do?

10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?

The program usually concludes with a question-and-answer session with the students.
In France, the show has been broadcast since 1999 on Paris Première, with French subtitles.

Water for Elephants - Trailer

As a young man, Jacob Jankowski was tossed by fate onto a rickety train that was home to the Benzini Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth. It was the early part of the great Depression, and for Jacob, now ninety, the circus world he remembers was both his salvation and a living hell. A veterinary student just shy of a degree, he was put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie.

It was there that he met Marlena, the beautiful equestrian star married to August the charismatic but twisted animal trainer. And he met Rosie, an un-trainable elephant who was the great gray hope for this third-rate traveling show. The bond that grew among this unlikely trio was one of love and trust, and, ultimately, it was their only hope for survival.

I'm OK

Once upon a time there was a girl

In her early years she had to learn

How to grow up living in a war that she called home

Never know just where to turn for shelter from the storm

Hurt me to see the pain across my mother's face

I would cry up in my room

Hoping it would be over soon

Bruises fade, but the pain remains the same

And I still remember how you kept me so afraid

Every morning that I wake I look back to yesterday

And I'm OK

I often wonder why I carry all this guilt

When it's you that helped me put up all these walls I've built

Shadows stir at night through a crack in the door

The echo of a broken child screaming "please no more"

Don't you understand the damage you have done

To you it's just a memory, but for me it still lives on

It's not so easy to forget

All the lines you left along her neck

When I was thrown against cold stairs

And every day I'm afraid to come home

In fear of what I might see there
