  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Jurassic Park is a 1993 science fiction adventure film directed by Steven Spielberg, based on Michael Crichton’s novel. The story follows a group of experts and visitors who are invited to a futuristic theme park on an isolated island, where genetically engineered dinosaurs roam free. The park’s creator, John Hammond, promises a revolutionary experience, but when a series of malfunctions occur, the visitors must navigate through dangerous encounters with the recreated prehistoric creatures. The film explores themes of scientific ethics, the unpredictability of nature, and the consequences of tampering with genetic engineering, blending thrilling action with thought-provoking questions. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “The success of Jurassic Park and its book sparked a significant rise in the popularity of paleontology, resulting in a marked increase in students pursuing the subject.” 
    
  “The roars of the Tyrannosaurus Rex were created by combining sounds from various animals, including dogs, penguins, tigers, alligators, and elephants.” 
    
  “Michael Crichton originally envisioned John Hammond as a character inspired by a darker version of Walt Disney.” 
    
  “Universal Pictures acquired the film rights to Michael Crichton's novel for $2 million before it was even published.” 
    
  “The Mr. DNA cartoon, appearing around the 25-minute mark in the movie, was Steven Spielberg’s way of quickly summarizing much of the novel’s exposition.”

  A GROUNDBREAKING GUIDE TO BECOMING YOUR ULTIMATE, CONFIDENT SELF, BY AWARD-WINNING CELEBRITY STYLIST AND THE WORLD'S ONLY IMAGE ARCHITECT, LAW ROACH 
   
  Law Roach is the mastermind behind looks that have broken the Internet time and again—from Zendaya at the Met Gala to Anya Taylor-Joy at the Golden Globes; from Lewis Hamilton’s iconic streetwear to Céline Dion’s style renaissance. Nobody knows better than Law how to turn an outfit into a moment of fashion history. In a little more than a decade, he’s gone from industry outsider to the most celebrated name in style, having been honored two consecutive years with the Hollywood Reporter’s prestigious Stylist of the Year award and receiving the Council of Fashion Designers of America’s inaugural Stylist Award in 2022.  
   
  Now, for the first time ever, Law shares the secrets of his approach. With How to Build a Fashion Icon, he takes readers behind the scenes of his process and journey, revealing his tips, tricks, and most memorable styling moments to show readers how to live their most iconic and fashionable lives. Part self-help guide, part manifesto, this book will guide readers step by step through that process, and along the way Law will weave in personal anecdotes—from his childhood in the South Side of Chicago to the first time he styled Zendaya—with practical exercises to help readers cultivate the most essential feature of iconic style: confidence. 
   
  “He loves and is very passionate about fashion … and finding something that exists already and creating a twist out of it. That’s his talent: He knows when it’s time to do something.”—Céline Dion, Vogue France

  Our most brilliant, fearless and creative women directors open the door on their craft, discussing their work in the theatre in intimate and illuminating detail.
  Through a series of fascinating conversations with many of the leading talents working on British stages, Running the Room explores what it takes to succeed in the field, and how each director approaches the work in their own way.
  Each interview focuses on a particular facet of the director's practice, examining not just the 'how' – how to talk to actors, how to create the right rehearsal environment, how to handle cuts and previews, how to work with a living playwright – but also the 'why': why certain approaches work better than others, why there's no 'right' way to direct a play, and why work in theatre anyway?
  As this passionate, inspiring book shows, there are myriad ways to be a theatre director. For aspiring or current directors, it will give you the confidence to be uniquely yourself, develop your own approach, and create the work you want to make. For creatives in other disciplines, it will provide insight into directors' processes, along with examples of successful collaboration. And for anyone who loves theatre, this is an unparalleled first-hand account of how brilliant theatre is made – direct from those making it.

  David Lynch

  Internationally renowned, David Lynch was America's premier purveyor of the surreal, an artist whose work in cinema, television and the internet exposed the world to his highly personalised view of society. This book examines his oeuvre, from the cult surrealism of his debut feature Eraserhead to his last feature Inland Empire, considering the themes, motifs and stories behind his incredible feature films, shorts and internet projects. His series Twin Peaks revolutionised TV and expanded the possibilities of what the medium could offer. This updated edition includes Twin Peaks: The Return, his continuation of the series 25 years after the original had set the world alight.
  In Lynch's world the mundane and the fantastical collide, often with terrifying consequences. It is a place where the abnormal is normal, where the respectable becomes sinister, where innocence is lost and redemption gained at a terrible price. And there's always music in the air. From the deserts of a distant world to an ordinary backyard, at the breakneck speed of Lost Highway or the sedate determination of The Straight Story, readers will experience amateur sleuths, messiahs, giants and little people, chanteuses, psychopaths, cherry pie and damn fine coffee.
  David Lynch is your guide to this other world... and this is your guide to David Lynch.
