Amisha’s Arranged Marriage So what’s her role and what is the film about “I play this smart, intelligent, interior designer who’s very with it and yet believes in arranged marriages because her parents have worked and she doesn’t have the time and energy to invest in a relationship which might not work. The Arranged Marriage will also be a crossover film but on a much larger scale because now they have a lot of people putting money in the film. Children, the second and third generation kids, who are brought up there become confused about their values, whether they should follow an arranged marriage system or not, what they should or shouldn’t do etc - and that is what the film is about,” says Amisha. www.mid-day.com /entertainment/news/2003/august/61035.htm   (480 words)

filmcritic.com Movie Review: Scenes from a Marriage Scenes from a Marriage is a key film both in the career of Ingmar Bergman and in the cinema of the ‘70s. Shot in 16mm and tightly photographed by the legendary Sven Nykvist, the film is immediate and unflinching in its probity, the scenes ranging from the enormously cruel (such as that in which Johan confesses to the affair the ends the marriage) to the redemptive (those showing Marianne finding her feet in life after Johan). In the full-length Scenes from a Marriage, Bergman backs down from nothing; he takes scenes as far as they need to go and the depths he searches in his characters is uncompromising. filmcritic.com /misc/emporium.nsf/VideoHome/B8CD4EDE1EF33E2108256E5800693F58?OpenDocument   (631 words)

His Girl Friday (1940) The film marked the beginning of a number of screwball comedies in the 1940s that emphasized the conflict for women in deciding between love/marriage and professional careers. The restaurant-lunch scene, the second scene in the film, is one of the film's funniest. With its plot about a ruthless editor, a marriage renewed by divorce and the threat of re-marriage, a politically corrupt city, and a questionable judicial system, the romantic comedy is both a love story and a sophisticated battle of the sexes (and duel of wits). www.filmsite.org /hisg.html   (2635 words)

'Private Confessions': Scenes From a Marriage, This One Mom and Dad's Were it not for this scene's period clothing and antique instrument, there would be little about the moment to anchor it in 1925, though that is when most of this sensitively acted, extraordinarily pedigreed film takes place. Ullmann knows about Bergmanesque candor is apparent on the screen, in a film whose troubled heroine is seen as earthy and forthright, her face laid bare at very close range, her duplicity exposed even when the principal person whom Anna deceives is herself. As she has her confrontation with Henrik in the film's next sequence, set a few weeks later with the crisp chronology of a play, her desperation comes to the fore. partners.nytimes.com /library/film/010699confessions-film-review.html   (787 words)

Filmmaker Magazine Spring 2001: SCENES FROM A MARRIAGE It seemed to make sense that the film would be about a marriage in a precarious position with all the levels of denial and hope that get merged in that situation; the feeling of future and life ahead, when really the relationship is in such a precarious way. Normally, a scene like that would be shot in a half a day or a day; in our film, it would have been shot before breakfast. Leigh and Cumming may have had the emotional vérité of some of John Cassavetes off-Hollywood epics in the back of their minds when they began, but the film they have made turns out to be far more about greasepaint-less surface realities. www.filmmakermagazine.com /spring2001/features/scenes_marriage.php   (3513 words)

JAKEOPOLIS.com - Movie Reviews, Editorials, And More From The Big Guy While there are numerous plot threads that the film follows, including the impending implosion of John and Deborah's marriage, the main thread is simply Flor trying to adapt to a world in which she is a stranger. Spanglish, with its smashing ensemble cast is a film that gives hope to marriage in an era of divorce. Leoni, who causes most of the grief in the film, is the perfect tragic antagonist as her hurtful actions against her family are not always mean spirited, she just doesn't understand. www.jakeopolis.com /jakereviews/spanglish.html   (1127 words)

Possession - DVD In "Possession" we are presented with an exaggerated expression of a broken marriage - a marriage smashed to a bloody pulp and screaming in agony. In many ways this film is an examination of the internal landscape of Zulawski at that moment; divorced from his wife and exiled by his beloved homeland. Andrzej Zulawski (who claims that the film was inspired by his own divorce) directs this obscure and often alienating film with unrelenting intensity. www.wensstyle.com /product/6305839980.html   (1414 words)

Varsity Arts & Culture -- Wilde & film make an unhappy couple The marriage of Oscar Wilde’s exquisite play, An Ideal Husband, to the flowery ‘adapted classics’ film genre is an unimposing failure. In fact, if he was present in the screening room, much in the same way they odiously worked him into a cameo in the film, he would have to adjourn to the theatre playing Austin Powers II in order to enjoy any of the fun and irreverence that characterized his work. Throw in Wilde’s garden of paradoxical esthetical opinions, bon mots, and the usual shenanigans associated with marriage and society, and you have a very rich play. www.varsity.utoronto.ca /archives/120/jul99/review/wilde.html   (347 words)

Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema: Spanglish SPANGLISH plays like a rough cut in which the Clasky marriage and Flor’s relationship with her daughter fight for primacy. Whether Deborah is chiding Flor not to play fetch with the dog or bemoaning the state of her marriage, Leoni’s shrill performance is wince inducing.

Lonely Planet theme guides - honeymoons The falls (not to mention the venerable institute of marriage) got a bad rap with the release of the film Niagara Falls ; the two minute shot of Marilyn sashaying provocatively toward the falls did for marriage and fidelity what Genghis Khan did for democracy (ie not much). Despite the film, over 50,000 honeymooners still visit Niagara Falls each year. In 1801 she changed into a no-nonsense travelling outfit of nine packhorses and a palace of servants and set off for the frontier lands of Niagara Falls. www.lonelyplanet.com /theme/honeymoons/honey_niagara.htm   (448 words)

DVD Savant Review: Lady Jane One of the subtle ironies of LADY JANE is that Queen Mary's marriage to the Spanish King Philip-- for which she sacrificed Jane and Guilford-- turned out a dismal failure. The soundtrack is handsomely mixed, and both picture and audio track look as if the film were released yesterday. But to everyone's surprise, Jane and Guilford's sullen marriage turns into a love match, and they counter-conspire to use their newfound roles as Queen and King for virtuous purposes. www.dvdsavant.com /s738lady.html   (1298 words)

webGED: The Bement Family Data Page Edward's eldest sister had married Æthelred of Mercia, a most dynastic marriage, and through her new power as Lady of Mercia, she was able to help Edward re-conquer the midlands and south-east of England. Edward's marriage to Elizabeth Woodville, a commoner, and his efforts to create a new nobility more amenable to his interests, angered the older nobles and alienated Richard Neville, earl of Warwick, who had been a power behind his throne. Edward was born at Windsor on November 13, 1312, the elder son of King Edward II, of the house of Plantagenet. www.bementfamily.com /webged/bement.wbg/wga27.html   (1298 words)

Internet Archive: Details: Sex Madness This film has been re-edited and re-titled ("Human Wreckage", "They Must Be Told", "Trial Marriage", "About Trial Marriage") many times to attract the same audience to film, to take advantage of a taboo subject which may have gotten press recently or to appease local censors who disapproved of the film's content. This is a typical sex exploitation film from the early 1930s - complete with wild parties, sex out of wedlock, lesbianism, etc. A chorus girl's exposure to the "casting couch" also exposes her to syphilis. Films like this would tour the United States for years - mostly being shown in rundown, skid row theaters. www.archive.org /details/sex_madness   (936 words)

Though censored after its 1928 release, Sex in Chains has been restored to its original state-of-the-silent-film-art brilliance by the Filmmuseum Muenchen and is presented here for the first time on DVD. It's maybe the best silent film of its director and star Wilhelm Dieterle. www.kino.com /video/item.php?film_id=731   (356 words)
