Becket

Becket
Becket (1964)

IMDB rating: 8.10

Plot: As the story opens, King Henry II, who ruled England from 1154 to 1189 has entered Canterbury Cathedral to do penance at the tomb of his former friend, Thomas Becket. Bare to the waist, the king kneels to receive a flogging from Saxon monks. He begins to reminisce, recalling at first the carefree, promiscuous adventures with Becket, then his favorite drinking and wenching companion. A violently emotional drama that probes the changing relationship between two young men – between two close friends bound together by similar pride of flesh and spirit who become deadly enemies as they pursue their separate destinies . . . that of king . . . and saint.

What is a 'stream of consciousness' famously used by Virginia Woolf, Marcel Proust, Samuel Becket, etc? Why?
Reading such literary works is not easy, therefore, we need to know its meaning, origin and effect those authors want.


William Faulkner, James Joyce, Joyce Carol Oats, and Spaulding Gray are other examples.

Our minds make connections based on our experiences and memories. No two people have the same experiences and memories so for a reader to be able to follow an author’s stream of consciousness can be difficult.

As an actor I spend a lot of time reading, understanding and memorizing things that have little overt connection and I find that figuring out the connection of how a character gets from point A to point e [or beyond] can help make the writing and my performance more real.

This type of writing is recording what most people think of a wandering mind or free association.

Fly Me to the Moon

Fly Me to the Moon
Fly Me to the Moon (2008)

IMDB rating: 4.90

Plot: A digital 3D presentation that wows viewers with striking 3D effects, Fly Me to the Moon is a retelling of the 1969 Apollo 11 landing on the moon from the perspective of three young flies that allegedly hitched a ride on the historic flight. Nat, IQ, and Scooter live by the credo “If it’s not an adventure, it’s not worth doing,” so when the three flies get a chance to sneak aboard the space shuttle for a ride to the moon, all systems are definitely go. While Grandpa McFly and Nat’s young maggot siblings applaud the boys’ adventuresome spirits, their mothers stereotypically swoon and fret over their safety. The flies encounter several unanticipated twists including the trip’s week-long duration, a short in the ship’s circuitry, a Russian fly plot to sabotage their mission, and their mid-flight imprisonment in a test tube. Nonetheless, the flies manage to enjoy the experience of weightlessness with an in-space ballet interpretation of “Blue Danube” as well as an orange juice feeding frenzy. Fly Me to the Moon will likely spark new interest in space exploration and the United States’ walk on the moon, especially in today’s children, and the filmmakers made a concerted effort to present fairly accurate historical details consistent with NASA’s notes on the historic flight. There’s even an afterword from real astronaut Buzz Aldrin in which he stresses the impossibility of the existence of flies or other contaminants aboard the historic space shuttle. Fly Me to the Moon is fun entertainment for the whole family as well as an eye-catching display of digital 3D technology. (Ages 4 and older)

PLEASE HELP: What is this playstation 1 game?
You had a small orange hamster-like creature on screen in which you had to escort it through levels against enemy hedgehogs and a suited fox. You controlled a red or blue cursor/crosshair and shot things around him to get him through levels. In one level you had to defend against seagulls that tryed to pick the hamster thing up and fly away with you. If you shot the hamster in the head he would fall down and if you shot him in the feet he’d jump. In one stage of the game he becomes a king, and in another you’d scale a building at night and kill a fox under a full moon. PLEASE HELP!!

If Jehovah Witnesses are so good then why do they scare me so much?
Seriously, These guys/gals go round from door to door asking me to join their religion with their suits that make me feel inferior and only ever achieve an inch towards total insanity by me. @_@ If any of what they say is true then there might not be any confusion of information between average Christians, Jehovah Witnesses and Atheists and we wouldn’t need Christians knocking on the door in the first place.


No pain no gain?

Any organization that says that Jesus isn’t enough, that you need Jesus PLUS them to get to heaven, isn’t from God. Jesus is enough.

You have nothing to fear from Jehovah’s Witnesses.

Obviously, they’re not good at all; they are scumbags and their religion is a lie.

As Spock said of Nero " He is One troubled Romulan".. I see the same in you.
conundrum | Feb 06, 2010


I find your question a bit assumptuous and offensive and I am not even a JW. What is the scale that you use to determine them as "so good" anyway? Isn’t that a bit relative to your own point of view? How can you determine them good and be scared at the same time?

There is no "them" or "they". God judges souls, not humans.

If you don’t like their way of doing things then just respectfully say no thank you.

Witnesses are ChristiansChristiansChristians who believe that the Bible is God’s word and that Jesus is their Savior. This Christian denomination dates back to the late 19th century. Charles Taze Russel is credited with organizing the first Bible study groups that later gave origin to the JehovahJehovahJehovah’s Witness sect; these groups focused on Bible prophecy and the second coming of Christ. This second coming is said to have happened invisibly in 1914

Are my "friends" really friends?
My problem is that I am suspicious of my other friends b/c the other day when I offered AND gave two of them a ride home from school I asked them what they had done on their days off. (They are best friends). They looked at each other and laughed a little, replying that they had been together both days off and had had a sleepover on one of the days. The day they said the sleepover was on (Wednesday) I had gone out with our other friend and she had asked me what I was doing later that day. I said nothing, and it was dismissed. Now I’m wondering if they had a sleepover without me? What do you think? I am suspicious b/c over the summer my friend Sam in our group had a party and invited everyone but me. I think it was b/c i embarassed her in class months before, but after apologies were accepted, I thought we were ok (it was just a joke). I found out but haven’t confronted her, although I think she knew I found out. I can’t blame her, we have dry conversations and are overly nice to eachother, she’s hinted we’re not great friends b/c for christmas she got my other friends "BFF" necklaces and bracelets and got me a plain heart necklace. So I’m pissed at her but I didn’t think anything bad of my other friends..

Oh, and After my mom had dropped my two friends off she was kinda annoyed, and I’m like, "what?" and she’s like, "well I wouldn’t have given them a ride home if I knew they weren’t gonna invite you over" <–The 2 of them live really close and usually just hang out…so I started getting pissed about it b/c my mom was right and she even noticed it.

I thought I was really close with one of these girls b/c last year she thought she was fatally ill and I was the ONLY one she talked to about it (she didn’t even tell her bffl). we talked on the phone and when she was ok I brought in cookies for her to celbrate (went out at 9 the night before). So we were close but this year she seemed closed off so I started getting really polite and uptight with her…now I don’t know where we’re at. But my friends always talk to me in school and laugh at my jokes and want to hang out in class…so htat’s where I’m at.
I don’t want to make a big deal of it b/c when one of my friends (who has a dry sense of humor) said she came over my house b/c my bro’s hot team was over, I got mad and she said "I’m jk. It’s not like the guys were even there the whole time I was, so I didn’t see them that much."
And when I was with one of my close friends whose the only one I feel I can trust I mentioned that I hoped noone talked behind my back (I was regarding that party Sam planned so carefully w/o me) and she said "We would never talk about you" looking right at me. I don’t want to make a big deal of things now..


friends are flaky, I wouldnt dismiss a friendship based on this one thing. Also, I dont know if this is the case with girls, but for guys sometimes I find myself not hanging out with the same person all the time, like you see "too much" of a friend for awhile and dont really talk to them for awhile. Then like a month later you might see them and be good pals again.

tell them how you feel. if they are "real friends" they will understand and hang out with you and include you. if they do not care it is time for some new friends.
