  Ride the High Country

  Director Sam Peckinpah was just starting out when MGM released Ride the High Country in 1962. He was a new kind of director: young, brash, and in a hurry to help the Western "grow up" by treating it with adult themes. Ride the High Country was something new and different, a changing Western to match a changing West. Stars Randolph Scott and Joel McCrea were old hands at this sort of thing. Ride the High Country gave the two veteran actors one last job to do and a chance to go out with some dignity. 
   
   
   
  Ride the High Country helped the genre mature and adapt to turbulent, changing times. It launched Peckinpah's career by invoking the themes of honor, loyalty, and compromised ideals, the destruction of the West and its heroes, and the difficulty of doing right in an unjust world—themes developed to their pinnacle in Peckinpah's later masterpiece, The Wild Bunch.

  On the Stage—and Off: The Brief...

  On the Stage—and Off: The Brief Career of a Would-Be Actor is Jerome K. Jerome’s wry, self-aware account of youthful ambition colliding with reality. Written with the gentle irony and observational humor that would later make him famous, this autobiographical sketch follows a young Jerome as he becomes convinced—briefly but earnestly—that the theater is his true calling. 
  Inspired by the glow of the stage and the poetry of Shakespeare, he throws himself into study, preparation, and theatrical dreaming, only to encounter skeptical friends, practical obstacles, and the quietly comic truths of the profession. What unfolds is not a tale of triumph or tragedy, but of aspiration, illusion, and the peculiar education that comes from trying. 
  Warm, reflective, and lightly self-mocking, On the Stage—and Off offers a charming glimpse into the late-19th-century theatrical world and the inner life of a man learning—gracefully—that wanting something is not the same as belonging to it. Narrated with clarity and restraint by Tony J. Martin, this memoir remains a timeless portrait of ambition, humility, and the comedy of honest effort.

  Encargos comunes (inglés)

  "Encargos Comunes" se presenta como un proyecto editorial que resume, a partir de tres obras de arquitectura, la práctica e investigación desarrollada por la oficina de arquitectura Taller25 en torno a esta profesión y su vínculo con la clase media contemporánea chilena. Estas obras identifican y visibilizan tres demandas sobre la vivienda: una Construcción nueva, una Reforma y una Ampliación, realizadas en comunas que normalmente se conocen como "Pericentrales" y "Periféricas" de la región Metropolitana (Lo Prado, San Bernardo y Maipú), cuyos mandantes o dueñas/os se inscriben en lo que estadísticamente se define como la clase media, transformándose así en un compendio atípico dentro de la disciplina de la arquitectura. De esta manera, la publicación propone una discusión crítica sobre la producción de la vivienda, y no de cualquier vivienda, sino de las más comunes de todas y, paradójicamente, menos abordadas desde el campo editorial y de divulgación en el área, como pueden ser las operaciones sobre la vivienda de y para los sectores medios.

  “Burroughs famously dubbed Waters the Pope of Trash. Female Trouble, we might say, is his Summa Trashologica.” —Ed Halter, The Criterion CollectionListen as Waters himself acts out each role!It all goes to hell when Baltimore bad girl Dawn Davenport doesn’t get the cha-cha heels she’s been demanding for Christmas. In this hilarious, irreverent, pyrotechnic melee of high-trash hijinks, Dawn ruins Christmas, skips town, and embarks on a wild ride that involves hitchhiking, robbery, murder, pregnancy—and, of course, modeling and glamour, too. The second installment of John Waters’ classic Trash Trilogy, Female Trouble explodes conventional norms of good behavior (and art) and is all the proof you’ll ever need that sometimes being bad can feel so, so very good.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
