  ABOUT THE FILM 
  The Godfather is a 1972 American crime drama directed by Francis Ford Coppola, based on Mario Puzo’s bestselling novel. The film follows the powerful Corleone family, led by patriarch Vito Corleone, a Mafia don in post-World War II New York. As Vito’s youngest son, Michael, reluctantly becomes involved in the family's criminal empire, the story explores themes of power, loyalty, revenge, and the complexities of family dynamics. The film delves into the moral struggles faced by its characters as they navigate the dangerous world of organized crime, blending crime thriller with deep emotional and ethical conflicts. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Marlon Brando used a mouthpiece made by a dentist to create the distinct look of Don Vito Corleone. He had originally stuffed his cheeks with cotton for his audition to achieve the "bulldog" look.” 
    
  “The cat held by Marlon Brando in the opening scene was a stray that Coppola found on the Paramount lot. It wasn't in the script, and the cat’s purring muffled Brando’s dialogue, so most of his lines had to be re-recorded.” 
    
  “There was significant tension between Francis Ford Coppola and Paramount Pictures, with the studio often trying to replace Coppola due to delays, overspending, and casting issues. However, Coppola finished the film ahead of schedule and under budget.” 
    
  “Marlon Brando improvised the smack that Don Vito gives Johnny Fontane in the movie, and Al Martino's confused reaction was genuine. James Caan later said that Martino didn't know whether to laugh or cry.”

  The Tenderness of Silent Minds -...

  Martha C. Nussbaum

  The human body is the primary instrument of war, yet those waging war often confront soldiers' bodies in a detached or merely intellectual way. In The Tenderness of Silent Minds, Martha C. Nussbaum, a leading thinker on emotion, morality, and justice, conducts a pioneering study of Benjamin Britten's musical representations of the tender male body amidst the brutality of war, and their ability to transform consciousness by evoking potent, non-personal emotions. 
   
   
   
  Offering a reading of Britten's views about the value and beauty of the body that situates these in the context of his thirty-nine year partnership with his lover, the singer Peter Pears, and also surveying pacifist themes in works written both before and after War Requiem, Nussbaum presents a compelling framework for critically assessing Britten's oeuvre. Nussbaum engages with a remarkably wide range of Britten's works, examining his treatment of aggression and its roots in his collaborations with the poet W. H. Auden, offering readings of the value placed on the body in early partnerships with Britten's beloved and singer Peter Pears, and surveying pacifist themes in Britten's earlier works. The analysis throughout is enriched with perspectives from Britten's personal letters and thoughtful study of the social and political backdrop of fear and homophobic disgust in mid-twentieth century Britain.

  This is a compilation of 2 different titles, which are about the following topics: 
  1: Claude Monet has been the icon for the impressionist movement. Painting vague strokes of color and contrast, water, and flowers were typical. Other aspects of the art weren’t as clear but were just as important, nonetheless. Claude Monet certainly faced many struggles as he tried to build his passion for painting into a career. His family life wasn’t perfect either, but despite of all these obstacles, the French genius painter has left us a legacy and a new perspective on realism and technique in their purest forms. 
  In this guide, we’ll go over his youth, his style, his methods, his most famous paintings, and many of the reasons why he made the decisions he made. Embark on a journey by diving into the world of art in the French countryside in the 19th century. Find out what made this painter so unique and beloved by so many. 
  2: Picasso’s work is famous. His art is intricate yet bizarre. Many people have stood still over the wonders and simplicity of cubism and surrealism and have either been disgusted or amazed by it. 
   Picasso’s personal life was filled with struggles, but some of those were likely self-imposed. From records, we learn that he had multiple marriages, stepfamilies, and was extremely abusive in several of his relationships, dominating the women he slept with in kinky, sadistic ways. His children weren’t any better off, creating substance abuse and suicidal headlines. Despite of the dysfunctionality in his personal and family life, his artwork reflected something new and fresh. His concepts of color, contrast, and composition have inspired many.
