	Somersault - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A somersault (sometimes somerset) is an acrobatic feat in which a person tucks in mid-air and moves the feet over the head.
		The somersault can be performed either forwards, backwards, or sideways and is synonymous with a flip (or, if performed backwards, backflip).
		A back flip is commonly associated with back somersault, yet a backflip is technically a back handspring which uses the arms to sustain the person performing the move.

	Somersault (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Learning How to Twist Fast
		The orientation of a gymnast during a twisting somersault may be described by the angles of somersault, tilt and twist (Figure 1).
		In the twisting somersault shown in the lower sequence the situation is different since the right arm is lowered at around the quarter twist position and this changes the somersault angle slightly rather than the tilt angle.
		A straight double somersault with two twists may be produced in the same way by using slight more arm asymmetry in the first somersault and adducting the arms close to the body (Figure 19).

	Somersault (2004) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
		Those who haven't understood Somersault's main themes or appreciated it as a perceptive piece of film-making may well be afflicted with the same delusional shortcomings of its characters: an inability to connect with others, or to have them connect with you.
		The central theme of Somersault is young males, females and how they dance around each other in the search for intimacy, almost always failing and causing each other enormous pain in the process.
		Somersault plays like one long life-lesson, though its themes and implications are timeless and universal for all young people.

		In Somersault (the title refers to an abrupt, public renunciation of the past), Kenzaburo Oe has himself leapt in a new direction, rolling away from the slim, semi-autobiographical novel that garnered the 1994 Nobel Prize (A Personal Matter) and toward this lengthy, involved account of a Japanese religious movement.
		Permeating the entire story is the Somersault like some shadow, and different groups' responses to it and the new movement come in for some heavy discussion among the various characters.
		It is a dense depiction of the rise, fall, and subsequent rise of a religious cult.

	Somersault movie review, In Film Australia
		In the midst of a slaying of assertions from Australian film players who have recently stressed, with good cause, that their industry is “dead in the water,” Somersault has been laden (perhaps burdened) with the desperate hopes of a starved art community persistently in search of icons.
		Somersault is a movie about forging impendence, finding mature closure and that confusing time in life in which adolescence and adult hood collide to form a jarring rights of passage limbo.
		Somersault isn’t a movie drenched in sadness, although none of its characters are outwardly happy.

	Somersault: triple j film reviews
		Somersault is the feature debut by young Australian director Cate Shortland who previously made award-winning shorts Strap On Olympia (1995), Pentuphouse (1998), Flowergirl (1999) and Joy (2000).
		Somersault is a far more sympathetic portrait of teen despair than Kids with quite a different, perhaps more feminist agenda at work.
		The aesthetic imperative at work in Somersault makes it more difficult to completely surrender to the compelling story at hand and its wider comments on audience voyeurism and social judgement about young women and their sexuality.

	Somersault (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
		With "Somersault," filmmaker Cate Shortland has expertly served up a vivid and touching tale, one told many times before, but in this well-realized mounting, one that sparkles with fresh awareness.
		Set in a ski resort area of Australia, "Somersault" is a handsomely mounted film swathed in an array of blue hues -- from the icy silver to the lushly deep end of the dark blue spectrum.
		"Somersault" bounds with ripe human vigor, largely due to Abbie Cornish's sensual, stormy portrayal of the fragile Abbie.

	BBC - Movies - review - Somersault
		Clammy, erotic and unsettling, Somersault follows Heidi (Abbie Cornish), an emotionally fragile teenager who runs away from home after copping off with her mum's boyfriend.
		Both compelling and worrying, the film is haunted by the unshakeable sense that something terrible is about to happen.
		"When you leave you still feel her on your skin," says Joe of his lover and Somersault does the same, lingering with you long after watching.

	Somersault DVD Review at The Z Review UK DVD reviews
		Somersault is an Australian production and a continuation of the inventive and spectacular example of what can be done with celluloid and the immense raw talent that is emerging from the Antipodeans.
		Shot on location and with interviews with the director, cinematographer and set designer, it is a real insight into the ideas that went into the making of the film, how different concepts for the look of the film were put together and the desired effect of the film coming to fruition.
		For those true cineastes who love all things technical, this is a true pleasure whereby the colour man divulges his secrets including the use of lighting, colour and focus to convey the different emotions of each of the different characters and how these ideas came about.

		If one were to put the edgy textures of Slowdive, the light airy sound of the Cocteau Twins, with the wall of sound guitars of My Bloody Valentine in a blender with the raucous dissonance of Sonic Youth, Foxtail Somersault would be the result.
		Comprised of reverb addict Mariel Haag, former Razor Drain guitarist and Foxtail Somersault founder Seiken Nakama, Morningspy guitarist James Spadaro, Brian Anderson formerly of the acid jazz/funk band outfit The Pickup Sticks, and East coast drummer Mark Dungey, Foxtail Somersault plays melodies that are both haunting and indelible.
		Backed by rhythms that can have the heaviest of grooves that would rival the gloomiest of goth bands or the most danceable beat of a pop band, their sound can best be described as multifaceted without being contrived.

		Featuring a mesmerizing, star-making performance by Abbie Cornish (soon to be seen opposite Heath Ledger in CANDY), SOMERSAULT is the story of a beautiful young woman’s sensory journey of self-discovery.
