Baader Meinhof Complex, The
Baader Meinhof Complex, The (2008)

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: Germany in the 1970s: Murderous bomb attacks, the threat of terrorism and the fear of the enemy inside are rocking the very foundations of the yet fragile German democracy. The radicalised children of the Nazi generation lead by Andreas Baader, Ulrike Meinhof and Gudrun Ensslin are fighting a violent war against what they perceive as the new face of fascism: American imperialism supported by the German establishment, many of whom have a Nazi past. Their aim is to create a more human society but by employing inhuman means they not only spread terror and bloodshed, they also lose their own humanity. The man who understands them is also their hunter: the head of the German police force Horst Herold. And while he succeeds in his relentless pursuit of the young terrorists, he knows he’s only dealing with the tip of the iceberg.

Finding a location in Berlin?
Hi

Is anybody Local to Berlin; or knows Berlin very well? I am travelling there in a few weeks and need to track a location down.

Ive seen the film "The Baader Meinhof Complex" and would like to see Ulrike Mienhof’s gravestone.
Ive been on Google Maps and tracked the location to:

Heilig-Kreuz-Kirchhof, Mariendorf,
Cemetery, which I believe is North of Tegel Airport.
Ive found U-Bhan stations around the area although they look a distance away. Does anybody know if the cemetery is in realistic walking distance; and how long it would take to walk from the nearest U-Bhan Station?

Also is the cemetery large; is her grave easy to locate. Ive tracked down its in "Zone A"? Does anybody know where that is in the cemetery?

Any help would be much appreciated

In reality Ulrike Meinhof is burried in the city of Stuttgart not in Berlin so you won’t find her gravestone there.
The burial was very controvers at the time the major of Stuttgart defended the right of the terrorists to get a burial place and said that with the dead even terrorists aren’t to be considered as public ennemies anymore

The Bird with the Crystal Plumage
The Bird with the Crystal Plumage (1970)

IMDB rating: 7.10

Plot: In Italy, the American writer Sam Dalmas (Tony Musant) witnesses an attempt of murder of the owner of an art gallery, a couple of days before his foreseen return to the United States of America. He decides to stay with his girlfriend Julia (Suzy Kendall) and help the police in the investigation, while the serial killer stalks Julia and him.

Where can I find DVD's or VHS's of quasi -classic French and Italian films of the 60's and 70's?
There were dozens of endeariing moves during the 60’s and 70’s such as "Dear Detective," "Come Have Some Coffee with Us" and "What Now My Love" that are nowhere to be found. There are also some strange works like "Investigation of a Citizien Above Suspicion" and "Bird with the Crystal Plumage" that have disappeared in the U.S. (as far as I can determine).
Many of the films in this category are from noted directors, feature top performers and extraordinary soundtracks. There are even several Academy Award contenders, yet they are unknown and unavailable here.
Can anyone suggest a source or vendor?


In the UK there is Moviemail, which stocks vast numbers of this type of film.

www.moviemail-online.co.uk

Be warned though, they are often region 2 (or sometimes region 0). NTSC region 1 are not available except in very rare cases. Why? Apparently because your tastes are so rare in the USA it isn’t worthwhile distributing them. So get a multi-region DVD player.

I also noted that you gave all the titles in English. Most of these will be French or Italian titled, with English sub-titles (only rarely an alternate English sound track). Why? See above.

But if like us you really do love these movies, then all this won’t matter.

Enjoy.

Barbie as Rapunzel
Barbie as Rapunzel (2002)

IMDB rating: 5.10

Plot: In this contemporary twist on the classic fairy tale, Barbie (voiced by Kelly Sheridan) uses the power of her own creative energies to paint her way out of the confines of a castle keep and save her prince from the nefarious clutches of Gothel, the evil witch (Anjelica Huston). It’s a charming animated tale that finds Barbie far from the sandbox and in a fantasy land with rabbits and dragons for friends and a chance at romance.

Songs to study for a soprano 2? ?
I’m an 18-year old teenager who recently enrolled in her first voice lesson. My vocal coach told me that I am a soprano 2 and that I have a very soft voice that is suitable for modern songs rather than classic songs. So far, the songs we have studied are

-Taylor the Latte Boy
-Wish Upon a Star (from Barbie Rapunzel -_-)

Next week, she told me to prepare 3 more songs. The problem is I also want to learn songs from musicals, as I plan to pursue theater this summer. Modern songs are okay, too. So far, I’m thinking of "Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield. If you guys have any songs in mind (preferrably broadway/modern pop/rock) I would appreciate it greatly.

Thanks in advance!


Memory (from Cats)
For Good (from Wicked)

How does one get into the animation field?
I want to be able to create my own cartoons eventually. I love the unique worlds such as Cowboy Bebop, or Aeon Flux… and I want to know how to get a job like that.


I graduated from art college several years ago. AAC in the bayarea. If you don’t know anyone who’s in animation field, you can try to present your idea and art work to the teachers in art school. Most of teachers in my school are not professional educator but professional artist. Such as most teachers who is teaching animation may from the big film company. Some of them fly from LA to give us class everyweek.
I thought you may start from their if you go some good stuff. But if you really got some great stuff, be careful with who you deal with. We had sign the contract that all our works belong to school when we were. I have known there some teachers keep student’s idea become their own…

Look into getting enrolled in a graphic arts class in a college or school, and take it from there.
Harley | Mar 24, 2006


Do a course in Animation…. If your drawing is very very good, then you stand a good chance.
nice_libra_guy | Mar 24, 2006


If you have the love and obviously talent you can!
Good animation takes countless time and effort.
Be consistant do not drift in to other things in that area
You can professionalize abything if you just keep on keeping on!

Goodluck, animation is good fun work
bringin life to a character is certainlya great feeling of giving birth.

Fantasia/2000
Fantasia/2000 (1999)

IMDB rating: 7.20

Plot: In this update of Disney’s masterpiece film mixture of animation and music, new interpretations of great works of music are presented. It begins with an abstract battle of light and darkness set to the music of Beethoveen’s Fifth Symphony. Then we see the adventures of a Humpback Whale calf and his pod set to “The Pines of Rome.” Next is the humourous story of several lives in 1930’s New York City, scored with “Rhapsody in Blue.” Following is a musical telling of the fairy tale, “The Steadfast Tin Soldier” set to Dmitri Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No. 2. Then a goofy Flamingo causes havoc in his flock with his yo-yo to the tune of the finale of “Carnival of the Animals.” This is followed by the classic sequence from the original film, “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” starring Mickey Mouse and followed by “Pomp and Circumstance” starring Donald Duck as a harried assistant to Noah on his Ark. Finally, we see the awesome tale of the life, death and renewal of a forest in a sequence featuring the composition, “The Firebird.”

POLL/SURVEY: What's the most visually amazing Animated Film you've ever seen :) ?
I saw "Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children" in Japanese years ago, and to this day, I’ve never seen such amazing animation!!

"Fantasia 2000" would be a close second, though :)


Spirited Away for the restrained, watercolor beauty of it.

Avatar for the realism…at times, I forgot the Na’vi were animated. Really amazing.

Lookout, The
Lookout, The (2007)

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: An admired high school hockey player (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) with a bright future foolishly takes a drive in the night with his girl friend and two other friends with his headlights off with devastating results. The former athlete is left with a brain injury that prevents him from remembering many things for extended periods of time. To compensate, he keeps notes in a small notebook to aid him in remembering what he is to do. He also lives with a blind friend (Jeff Daniels) who aids him. Obviously, with the mental incapacitation, he is unable to have meaningful work. Thus he works as a night cleaning man in a bank. It is there he comes under the scrutiny of a gang planning to rob the bank. The leader (Matthew Goode) befriends him and gets him involved with a young woman (Isla Fisher) who further reels him in. After they get close and after reeling him in with his own failures, the bank plan unfolds. Confused but wanting to escape his current existence, he initially goes along with the scheme. After realizing he is being used, he attempts to stop the robbery, which of course immediately goes awry. Bruce McGill and Alberta Watson also co-star as the young man’s parents, who still search for the person that was there before the tragic crash.

Credit Card settlement?
Hello,

I have a SBI credit card which i had used. I have also stopped making minimum payments since the last 3 years. The principal outstanding of my card is Rs. 25000 and the total outstanding is 70000. I got a call from the collections department asking me to pay 30000 towards settlement of the account. Now after 2 months i got an e-mail from the person asking me to make a payment of 40000 towards settlement of the account in 4 installments. In my exchange of emails with the officer I had mentioned that i am out of job now due to the recession and am still on the lookout for a job, but I am willing to repay back in installments. I am not sure about how I can get this card settled or how much will be waivered of because of settlement. Please suggest as to how much can be waivered and is it the principal limit I have to take into consideration or the total outstanding?

Thanks & Regards,
Vincentj

In card settlement you should have a good bargain power. If they are asking for 40000/- then it could be settle in around 30000/- and what ever the settlement amount you could pay in installment.

Vincent, with the debt in question being 3 years old, before you agree to ANYTHING please check the Statute of Limitations (SOL) for your state! If the age of your debt (the elapsed time between now and the last time you paid) is greater than or equal to the SOL, a Debt Collector can pursue you BUT the debt is uncollectable! Got to http://www.creditinfocenter.com/rebuild/ statuteLimitations.shtml, find your state, and look up the number in the "Open Ended" column. This number is the SOL and again, if the age of your debt is greater than or equal to this number, you can tell the Debt Collector to (insert expletive) off! (In legal terms, of course!)
