Sinopsis

In "An Account of Valle Crucis Abbey, Llangollen, and All the Recent Discoveries," the anonymous author presents a meticulously researched exploration of Valle Crucis Abbey, uncovering its historical significance and architectural intricacies. Written in a descriptive and objective literary style, the work synthesizes archaeological findings and historical texts, placing the abbey within the broader context of Welsh ecclesiastical history. The text's attention to local folklore and cultural narratives enriches its scholarly rigor, offering readers a vivid portrayal of the abbey's role in the region's spiritual and historical landscape. The anonymity of the author invites speculation into their identity, yet their extensive knowledge of Welsh history and architecture is undisputed. The author likely draws from a combination of personal passion, local heritage, and academic inquiry, reflecting the 19th-century scholarly interest in Gothic architecture and national identity that characterized the Romantic movement. Their commitment to unearthing the past perhaps stems from a profound reverence for Wales's ecclesiastical heritage and a desire to preserve its narrative. This book is a valuable resource for historians, archaeologists, and general readers interested in Welsh history and architecture. It not only deepens our understanding of Valle Crucis Abbey but also stands as a testament to the enduring cultural importance of historical sites. Readers seeking to connect with the past will find this account both enlightening and enriching.

    This history and critique of classic scary films “honors Universal’s horror legacy. . . . an excellent resource for film students and monster movie fanatics” (Library Journal). In 1931 Universal Studios released Dracula starring Bela Lugosi. This box office success was followed by a string of films featuring macabre characters and chilling atmospherics, including Frankenstein, The Mummy, and The Invisible Man. With each new film, Universal established its place in the Hollywood firmament as the leading producer of horror films, a status it enjoyed for more than twenty years. In The Monster Movies of Universal Studios, James L. Neibaur examines the key films produced by the studio from the early 1930s through the mid-1950s. In each entry, Neibaur recounts the movie’s production, provides critical commentary, considers the film’s commercial reception, and offers an overall assessment of the movie’s significance. Neibaur also examines the impact these films had on popular culture, an influence that resonates in the cinema of fear today. From the world premiere of Dracula to the 1956 release of The Creature Walks among Us, Universal excelled at scaring viewers of all ages—and even elicited a few chuckles along the way by pitting their iconic creatures against the comedic pair of Abbott and Costello. The Monster Movies of Universal Studios captures the thrills of these films, making this book a treat for fans of the golden age of horror cinema.   “Studio stills and trade ads for several of the films add a suitably scary touch to this treat for fans and scholars alike. ― Booklist “An impressive work of film scholarship.” ― Cinema Retro

    The Way They Were - How Epic...

    It's one of the greatest movie romances of all time. Yet the friction and controversy surrounding The Way We Were was so enormous, the movie was nearly never made at all. 
     
     
     
    Screenwriter Arthur Laurents wrote the role of Katie with Barbra Streisand in mind. Casting Hubbell was another matter. Robert Redford, already a superstar, was reluctant to play what he perceived as the "Ken doll" to Streisand's lead, and demanded his role be changed and expanded. Laurents resisted, telling director Sydney Pollack, "You'll ruin the movie if it ends up being about two people. It's Katie's story, not Hubbell's." Despite his protests, ten writers were brought on to rework the script. 
     
     
     
    Laurents's fears were well founded, and the first preview was disastrous. Producer Ray Stark and Pollack cut several scenes, upsetting Streisand and Laurents. Yet the edits worked. Such was the movie's success that Redford was open to making a sequel, though the script was never greenlit. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on Laurents's and Pollack's unpublished writings, as well as interviews with Streisand, Redford, and other key players, this is the definitive account of a film that changed the rules of moviemaking and defined romance ever since.
