  "Ivan the Terrible" (1976)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
'Ivan the Terrible' was a grossly unfunny comedy which at least featured a highly original central premise.
In 'Ivan the Terrible', as in most of his career, Jacobi was just cheap and vulgar.
Ivan Petrovsky (plain old 'John Peters' in English) is a put-upon schlub, working as a headwaiter to support a wife, three kids and his mother-in-law.

 Ivan the Terrible-Part 1 : Video   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
For Westerners Ivan the Terrible is in the same mental pocket as such unlovely characters as Rasputin, Vlad the Impaler, and even Joseph Stalin.
The two films that we have were made in the aftermath of the defeat of the German invasion as the Russian armies rolled West rather as they had rolled East in Ivan´s day when Kazan and Astrakhan had fallen to the rising power of the Russian state.
Eisenstein´s arresting imagery adds near-operatic grandeur to Ivan´s lavish coronation, his destruction of the Tartar city of Kazan, his self-imposed abdication in response to court treachery and his return to the throne at the request of the common people --all set to a magnificent score by Prokofiev.

 John Cleese pictures, posters, photos, interviews and wallpapers.
The five U.K.-born members of the group were all TV writers (Cleese, Idle, and Chapman wrote for David Frost, whom they later frequently lampooned) before concocting their own show in the late 1960s, in which they acted mainly because they thought no one else would.
The troupe's TV series ended in the mid-1970s-tall "silly walks" master Cleese had actually departed before its last season, to work on his own hysterical series "Fawlty Towers".
Cleese is the most visible Python member, appearing in many films and TV ads on both sides of the Atlantic, including The Great Muppet Caper (1981), Privates on Parade (1982), Silverado (1985, incongruously cast in a Western), Clockwise (1986), and the aforementioned Wanda (which earned Cleese an Oscar nomination for Best Screenplay).

Tall and jut-jawed, Cleese began his comedy career with the Cambridge Circus, and met both Connie Booth (whom he would later marry) and Terry Gilliam (a future co-member of Monty Python's Flying Circus) while on tour with the student revue group in the US.
On returning to England, Cleese landed a job writing for TV's "The Frost Report" before becoming a member of the Monty Python team.
Possibly the best-known of the Pythons, he also enjoyed considerable success with the TV series "Fawlty Towers," co-written by Booth.

 John Cleese | Biography (born 1939)
Perhaps the funniest British star of his generation, his films and TV appearances have been too few for the liking of his fans.
The son of a Somerset insurance salesman, Cleese (the family name was changed from Cheese in 1915) was 6 ft tall at 12 years old, 'a timid, weedy kid with no way of fading into the background'.
Film roles, though, remained largely snooty cameos, even after his tremendous TV success as Basil Fawlty of Fawlty Towers, the monstrous seaside hotelier described by one writer as 'a unique exhibit in the comedy chamber of horrors'.

Campaign gurus believe in TV commercials even more than they believe in their own candidates for two reasons: First, commercials are totally controllable.
Demjanjuk, born in Ukraine, used to be called Ivan the Terrible by those prosecuting him, but it was discovered some years ago that, in reality, he is merely Ivan the Unspeakable, Ivan the Reprehensible, and Ivan the Despicable.
The court also found, however, that "reasonable doubt" existed that Demjanjuk was the "Ivan the Terrible" of the Treblinka death camp and that while Israel could try him for his other crimes, it was "unreasonable" to do so after keeping him for more than seven years in an Israeli prison.

 Videos and Movies [NCPP: Public Administration Teaching Roundtable]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
This series, along with spin-off series; Surfside 6, Hawaiian Eye and Bourbon Street Beat; were produced by Warner Brothers, the first major American studio to dive full bore into television series production; and all aired by ABC (the network now owned by The Walt Disney Company; not the old British network).
The one major coincidence of these series were the seemingly interchangeable plots, locales (Surfside 6 in Miami Beach; Bourbon Street Beat in New Orleans and Hawaiian Eye in Honolulu) and casts; both in the adventure series noted above; as well as their cadre of Western shows such as Cheyenne, Maverick and Lawman.
