Sinopse

John Ruskin's 'Modern Painters' is a comprehensive exploration of art and its role in society during the 19th century. Written in a highly descriptive and philosophical style, the book delves into the significance of landscape painting and the principles of artistry. Ruskin's detailed analysis of works by artists such as J.M.W. Turner provides valuable insight into the Romantic movement and the changing perceptions of beauty in art. Drawing upon his background in art criticism and his deep admiration for the natural world, Ruskin offers a rich tapestry of ideas that continue to resonate with readers today. His eloquent prose and keen observations make 'Modern Painters' a timeless classic in the realm of art history and criticism. John Ruskin's passion for art and nature shines through in 'Modern Painters', making it a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of aesthetics and philosophy in the 19th century.

    Her is a 2013 science fiction romantic drama directed by Spike Jonze. Set in a near-future Los Angeles, the film follows Theodore Twombly, a lonely, introverted man who develops an unlikely romantic relationship with Samantha, an advanced artificial intelligence operating system voiced by Scarlett Johansson. As their connection deepens, Theodore grapples with his emotions, loneliness, and the nature of love in an increasingly digital world. The film explores themes of intimacy, identity, and the boundaries between human connection and technology, offering a thought-provoking look at the complexities of modern relationships in a tech-driven society. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “Spike Jonze, stuck in the editing process with an early 150-minute cut, asked Steven Soderbergh to edit it down. Soderbergh returned within 24 hours with a 90-minute cut, which helped Jonze finalize the film’s 126-minute runtime.” 
      
    “Director Spike Jonze loved his role as Alien Child so much that he would often give notes to his editor and producer while staying in character.” 
      
    “This is the only film written and directed by Spike Jonze, entirely based on his original script.” 
      
    “Charlie Kaufman contributed some uncredited screenwriting to the film.” 
      
    “The airplane sculpture featured in a square outside the Pacific Design Center was entirely created using CGI. There is no such sculpture at the actual location in West Hollywood.”

    Rough Trade Book of the YearResident Book of the YearA Rolling Stone Book of the YearA Mojo Book of the YearA Sunday Times Book of the YearFormed in 1988, Lush were part of the London gig scene during one of the most vibrant and creative periods in UK music. Now, Miki Berenyi tells all.From the bohemian ways of her father's social circle to the privileged glamour of her mother's acting career, Miki's young life was a blur of travel, celebrities and peripatetic schooling. But frequent relocation, parental neglect and the dark presence of her abusive grandmother resulted in crippling shyness, mental-health issues and a vulnerability to exploitation.The route out of this hole was music - a passion shared by schoolmate Emma Anderson. The teenagers began attending gigs together and would ultimately go on to form Lush. Talented and exuberant, the band became hot property, swiftly transitioning from shoegaze icons to Britpop darlings.Re-living the tours, recording sessions and music-industry madness they experienced along the way, this uncompromising memoir documents Lush's thrilling rise and untimely fall. Yet at the heart of the book are Miki's own battles: the conflict between her mouthy public persona and her thin-skinned private identity; the trials of being a woman in an infuriatingly male world; the struggle to find a middle ground between 'safe' indie obscurity and 'sell-out' international success. Miki also explores her complicated relationship with Emma - one that has fluctuated between camaraderie and rivalry over the years - and addresses the devastating tragedy that led to the band's split.Told through frank confession, wry humour and searing emotional honesty, this is the incredible tale of a trailblazing woman and a seminal band.

    An exclusive look behind the scenes of the Academy Awards as top stars and filmmakers discuss their Oscar wins and tell never-before-told tales of Hollywood's biggest night, in a collection of original interviews with Turner Classic Movies host and entertainment media journalist Dave Karger. For almost a century, movie fans have been riveted by the Academy Awards and the stars who have won Oscars. 50 Oscar Nights takes readers behind the scenes of Hollywood’s most storied awards show through new and exclusive interviews with dozens of A-list actors, filmmakers, and craftspeople spanning sixty years of the Oscars. Here these artists reflect on their winning work and recount all the details of how they got ready, how they felt when they heard their name and got up on stage to accept their award, what they wore, how the entire experience impacted their life, and more. Some interviews bring to light fun stories like why Hilary Swank decided to celebrate her Academy Award at the Astro Burger in West Hollywood, or insight into the work as Elton John explains why he was convinced he won his Best Original Song award for the wrong tune. Other interviews illuminate why for some honorees, such as Julia Roberts, John Legend, and Octavia Spencer, the day remains a life highlight to be treasured, while for Marlee Matlin, Mira Sorvino, and Barry Jenkins, complex emotions cloud what most think would be a purely celebratory moment. Filled with more than 150 photos of red-carpet moments, emotional acceptances, and after-party play, 50 Oscar Nights is both a stunning record of cinema glamour and a must-read for any movie lover.  Full list of interviewees: Nicole Kidman, Elton John, Jennifer Hudson, Steven Spielberg, Jane Fonda, Barry Jenkins, Halle Berry, J.

    em Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
