		Rembrandt van Rijn´s Portrait of a Young Woman is an exceptionally beautiful example of the Dutch artist´s genius for portraiture, and only the second painting by the artist in a Texas museum.
		The Rembrandt Research Project (RRP), a team of art historians founded in 1968, whose ongoing mission is to examine Rembrandt´s painted oeuvre and compile a critical catalogue of his paintings, has thoroughly studied this portrait.
		Rembrandt (1606-1669) began his artistic career as a teenager with apprenticeships in Leiden and Amsterdam, eventually setting up a joint studio in Leiden with the artist Jan Lievens in 1625.

	Amazon.co.uk: Video: Rembrandt [1936] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Charles Laughton's portrayal of the great Rembrandt is itself a masterpiece, full of sensitivity, pathos, whimsy, a lustful eye for the women who caught his fancy, and the eccentricities of a genius who lived way beyond his means and owed more than he owned to his creditors.
		The film begins when Rembrandt is 36, in 1642, with the passing of his beloved wife Saskia, the model for so many of his works, and is followed by the controversy over his magnificent and enormous "The Night Watch", which was unveiled the same year.
		The film belongs to Laughton, and his magnificent performance, but the supporting cast is great, with Elsa Lanchester as Hendrickje, Gertrude Lawrence as his housekeeper and common law wife, and John Bryning as Titus, the only one of his four children with Saskia that survived.

		I don't know anything about the real Rembrandt's life, so I don't know how much of this movie is true, other than the fact that he was a painter.
		Early on in the movie he gave a truly moving speech about love (this was shortly before his first wife dies), about how loving her was the equivalent of loving every woman on earth.
		This move eventually led, in 1634, to the marriage of Rembrandt and Hendrick's...

		[Rembrandt's prints] brought him fame and no small advantage, in particular through the device of slight changes and small and unimportant additions, which he made on his prints, thanks to which they could be sold again as fresh ones.

	Jiri Trnka -- Walt Disney Of The East!
		Trnka shot the film with two parallel cameras (classic and wide screen format which was a novelty at that time) because he did not believe in "compositions seen through a mailbox slot." Thus he created gorgeous work.
		The last of Trnka's films, The Hand, was an unexpected and surprising break in his work thus far.
		The film had the strong up-to-date story about the Artist and the omnipresent Hand, which only allowed the Artist to make sculptures of the Hand and nothing else.

	Tom and Jerry (cartoon) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tom and Jerry were an animated cat (Tom) and mouse (Jerry) team who formed the basis of a massively successful series of theatrical short cartoons created, written, and directed by animators William Hanna and Joseph Barbera (later of Hanna-Barbera fame), and produced by Metro-Goldwyn Mayer from 1940 to 1958.
		Beginning in 1965, the Hanna and Barbera Tom and Jerry films began to appear on television in heavily edited form: the Jones team was required to take the shorts that featured Mammy, rotoscope her out, and replace her with a thin white woman.
		In the film, Tom and Jerry are chasing each other underwater, when they run into Esther Williams, with whom they do an extended synchronized swimming routine.

		Films, by and large, are not given the kind of respect that old books and our arts get.
		Of the 1,200 films, we could get our hands only on nine — primarily because the producers were not interested in storing films for posterity.

		The film was produced by the Prague-based "Trick Brothers" studio, owned and operated by Jiri Trnka.
		The story, adapted by Trnka and Jiri Brdecka, is the traditional one of the emperor who so loved the song of the nightingale that he purchased an artificial singing bird--thereby breaking the nightingale's heart.
		When the film was prepared for US release, the distributor (Rembrandt Films) secured the services of Boris Karloff to narrate the story, using a new English narrative written by Phyllis McGinley.

		Rembrandt Films was a small studio that produced more than 50 cartoons between 1959 and 1970.
		But the animation is too limited and the timing too slow to give the film much appeal.
		The remainder of the films are more interesting as examples of '60s-style humor and design than as entertainment.

		The chosen films reflect the notion of art as life-integral and promises that it all interconnects and cross-fertilises in unexpected ways.
		His belief is that films on art should be works of art in themselves, with attention given to the music, narration and direction as well as the intrinsic subject matter.
		In preparing his films Roland has gone through thousands of private and museum collections and has brought into pictures of 15 and 50 minute length works of art which would be almost impossible for most persons to seek out.

	The History of Animation
		He had already projected quite useful films onto a wall in his factory, but rather than producing a viewing system for the general public he came up with a machine in which reels of celluloid were not unrolled but stretched over a set of wheels that passed in front of a viewing window.
		This film is usually considered the first known example of animation as some of the drawn sequences are shot frame by frame.
		The film's motif was based on the lightning or quick sketch routine from vaudeville where a drawing is done in front of an audience.

		But what really makes this film matter is its undercurrent of deep yearning, the passion of Andrew as a convert to the human race and his willingness to sacrifice all to give and take love.
		But while this film may not make literal sense in the harsh light of day, in the twilit, shadowy world of classic Hollywood this slyly inventive thriller is a bravura bit of old-fashioned entertainment, done up with modern flair.
		The film begins like no other before it: Kelly (Constance Towers) beats her pimp with a handbag, grabs the cash he owes her, adjusts her telltale wig and makeup, and sets out to begin life anew, free from the shame of prostitution.

		The second film, directed by Gene Searchinger, examines Velazquez's portrait of his fl servant Juan Pareja, which was done while the artist was in Rome waiting to paint the portrait of the pope.

		In 1960, MGM decided that they wanted to produce new Tom and Jerry shorts again, and had producer William Snyder make an arrangement with Czech animation director Gene Deitch and Deitch's studio, Rembrandt Films, to make the films overseas in Prague.
		Since the Deitch/Snyder team only saw a handful of the original Tom and Jerry shorts, the films that resulted from the arrangement were considered unusual and, in many ways, bizarre.
		Jones and Goldman went on to produce 34 more Tom and Jerry shorts starting in 1963, all of which carried Jones' distinctive style (and a slight psychedelic influence), but with varying degrees of critical success.
