Sinopse

Unexpected Actor Choices explores the fascinating realm of film and television casting, dissecting decisions that initially raised eyebrows but ultimately led to unforgettable performances. The book examines how unconventional casting can redefine roles and challenge audience expectations. It also highlights how certain casting choices have shaped enduring screen archetypes. Did you know that some of the most iconic roles were initially offered to actors who seemed entirely wrong for the part? The book delves into the art of unconventional casting, analyzing both triumphant and unsuccessful choices. It investigates how audience reception can dramatically shift based on an actor's performance, regardless of initial skepticism. Structured in four parts, the book introduces the core concept, explores cases of backlash turned to acclaim, examines casting failures, and concludes with an analysis of lasting impact and diverse casting. This approach offers a comprehensive look at the behind-the-scenes decision-making process, making it a valuable resource for film enthusiasts and media studies students.

  • The Heartless Murder of Nettie Sachs - And The Survival Of Her American Dream - cover

    The Heartless Murder of Nettie...

    Born in Lithuania in 1885 under the rule of Russian Tsars, Nettie was ever aware of the injustice levied on her Jewish people. Rules limited their freedom reducing their status to that of second-class citizens. Additionally, Nettie challenged her own religion’s system of excluding girls from Talmud instruction, which the male-dominated Jewish society deemed to be the exclusive right of men.     Nettie fled to America with Russian Cossacks hot on her trail for a murder that occurred during a pogrom while she was defending her husband. In America, she found opportunity but not without its perils. She took advantage of America’s freedoms and became educated, continuing to navigate the male dominated society with her resolve to live the American Dream.  Nettie’s natural sexuality and intelligence attracted five husbands and produced six children, who in turn contributed twelve grandchildren. This was her legacy to America. Her life’s story unfolded as her adopted country fought two wars, saw the start of the union movement, the Ku Klux Klan, and segregation, and adjusted to an immigrant crisis.      Tragically, Nettie ---a young widow ---lost her life at age 37 at the hands of the son of a man whose romantic interest she had rejected years before in the old country. Envious of her newfound wealth, he was determined to claim it as his own.  He sent his son, 13 years younger than Nettie, to court her, then marry her. Evil occult forces seemed to follow Nettie’s every move after her third marriage, only ending with her death after the fifth. The sensational trial of her last husband for her violent murder was followed in newspapers across the country.      Her life in America played out against a backdrop of the Roaring Twenties, Prohibition, bootleg liquor, ragtime music, and speakeasies.  Nettie became in her mind, and in reality, a true American. She did her best to raise her children and instill in them her passion for justice and freedom.

    What happens when paradise stops distracting you and starts revealing you? 
    Ten Thousand Hours in Paradise: Tribulationscontinues Andrew’s true journey on the Big Island of Hawaii, picking up exactly where Volume 1 left off and turning inward, toward the most difficult terrain of all. 
    A routine hitchhiking ride introduces a new person into Andrew’s life and an invitation he can’t ignore: a ten-day silent Vipassana meditation retreat. 
    What begins as curiosity quickly becomes a radical experiment in awareness. In total silence, with no distractions and no stories to hide behind, he learns to observe his thoughts without attachment, confront buried trauma without narrative, and witness firsthand the impermanent nature of everything he thought he was. 
    As the days unfold, paradise takes on a new meaning. Old emotional patterns surface. Unrequited love reveals itself in a different light. And on his birthday, a message arrives from beyond the grave that feels impossible to explain and impossible to forget. 
    The island no longer offers escape, only reflection. 
    ✨ Ten Thousand Hours in Paradise: Tribulations chronicles a deep inner transformation on Hawaii, through meditation, vulnerability, and radical self-inquiry. Luminous, honest, and immersive, Tribulations is for readers drawn to true stories of healing, consciousness, and the unsettling beauty of change. 
    Continue the journey today. Take the next step deeper into paradise.

    Six has always been a number we group things around – Six of the best, six of one half a dozen of another, six feet under, six pack, six degrees of separation and a sixth sense are but a few of the ways we use this number. 
     
    Such is its popularity that we thought it is also a very good way of challenging and investigating an author’s work to give width, brevity, humour and depth across six of their very best. 
     
    In this series we gather together authors whose short stories both rivet the attention and inspire the imagination to visit their gems in a series of six, to roam across an author’s legacy in a few short hours and gain a greater understanding of their writing and, of course, to be lavishly entertained by their ideas, their narrative and their way with words. 
     
    These stories can be surprising and sometimes at a tangent to what we expected, but each is fully formed and a marvellous adventure into the world and words of a literary master.
