	Animefringe: June 2004 - Reviews - A Story of Floating Weeds
		Film can be about anything; space monsters, samurai, love triangles, and sometimes all three in one film, but some of the most interesting films are made when film makers turn their camera around and look at their own craft.
		Another very apparent visual aspect to the film is that for the bulk of the film characters speaking to each other each look directly at the camera and the camera cuts from one person to the next.
		A few changes were made; this film certainly seems a bit funnier than the '34 movie (not that the first film didn't have a number of funny moments).

	Leslie Howard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Leslie Howard (April 3, 1893 – June 1, 1943) was a British film actor of Hungarian-Jewish descent.
		Howard proceeded to play stiff-upper-lipped Englishmen in films such as Berkeley Square (1933, for which he was nominated for a Best Actor Academy Award), The Scarlet Pimpernel (1934), Pygmalion (1938) (in which he played Professor Higgins, and earned another Oscar nomination), and Pimpernel Smith (1941).
		In 1943, he visited Lisbon (some say on a secret mission), and, on the return flight, his plane was shot down by the Luftwaffe over the Bay of Biscay, possibly because the Germans believed the Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, to be on board.

		Many sources erroneously state that the Astaires appeared in a 1915 film entitled starring Mary Pickford, but this is a myth (although it is believed that they were present to watch the filming).
		His technical control and sense of rhythm were astonishing; according to one anecdote, he was able, when called back to the studio to redo a dance number he had filmed several weeks earlier for a special effects number, to reproduce the routine with pinpoint accuracy, down to the last gesture.
		Astaire's final musical film was Finian's Rainbow (1968), in which he shed his white tie and tails to play an Irish rogue who believes if he buries a crock of gold in the shadows of Fort Knox it will multiply.

	Les Misérables: Complete Film Score (1934): Film Music on the Web CD Reviews February 2005 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Taking the film work of serious composers and presenting it as serious music, equivalent to ballet scores and theatrical music is an idea that should be embraced.
		It is considered the complete film score, according to the insert, because the omitted material either was not composed by Honegger or because the cues were crossed out in the original manuscript, presumably by the composer himself.
		However, as there are no other complete recordings aside from the film itself to compare this work with, one must concede that it is possible that he is attempting too closely to follow the original, which had the advantage of the visual imagery.

		The modern film use of typage is based on the wish to delineate a character so sharply that upon entrance the audience will "place" him as a known element.

		In their contrasts, the two films shed much light on the early evolution of Nazi propaganda: its evocation of heroism and collective will, its portrayal of the “national people’s community,” its depiction of Hitler most of all.

	It Happened One Night (1934)
		It Happened One Night (1934) is one of the greatest romantic comedies in film history, and a film that has endured in popularity.
		The escapist theme of the film, appropriate during the Depression Era, is the story of the unlikely romantic pairing of a mis-matched couple - a gruff and indifferent, recently-fired newspaper man (Gable) and a snobbish, superior-acting heiress (Colbert) - a runaway on the lam.
		It is a reversal of the Cinderella story (the heroine rejects her wealthy lifestyle), a modern tale with light-hearted sex appeal in which courtship and love triumph over class conflicts, socio-economic differences, and verbal battles of wit.

		This is the first of Marcel Pagnol’s three ambitious film adaptations of novels by Jean Giono (followed by Regain and La Femme du boulanger).
		Pagnol’s use of location filming and direct sound was a radical departure from the norm at the time, and his work is often cited as the inspiration for neo-realism which rose to prominence in the following decade.
		Although the film drags in a few places, the sheer poetry in the dialogue and the depth of characterisation makes this a rich and captivating work of cinema.
