The Phantom Of Liberty
''The Phantom of Liberty'' (french: Le Fantôme de la liberté) is a 1974 surrealist comedy film by Luis Buñuel, produced by Serge Silberman and starring Adriana Asti, Julien Bertheau and Jean-Claude Brialy. It features a non-linear plot structure that consists of various otherwise unrelated episodes linked only by the movement of certain characters from one situation to another and exhibits Buñuel's typical ribald satirical humor combined with a series of increasingly outlandish and far-fetched incidents intended to challenge the viewer's pre-conceived notions about the stability of social mores and reality. Plot The opening scene is inspired by "The Kiss", a short story by Spanish post-romanticist writer Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer and by Francisco Goya's painting ''The Third of May 1808''. Toledo, 1808. The city has been occupied by French Napoleonic troops. A firing squad executes a small group of Spanish rebels who cry out "Long live chains!" or "Death to the ''gabachos''! ...

Cabaret
Cabaret is a form of theatrical entertainment featuring music, song, dance, recitation, or drama. The performance venue might be a pub, a casino, a hotel, a restaurant, or a nightclub with a stage for performances. The audience, often dining or drinking, does not typically dance but usually sits at tables. Performances are usually introduced by a master of ceremonies or MC. The entertainment, as done by an ensemble of actors and according to its European origins, is often (but not always) oriented towards adult audiences and of a clearly underground nature. In the United States, striptease, burlesque, drag shows, or a solo vocalist with a pianist, as well as the venues which offer this entertainment, are often advertised as cabarets. Etymology The term originally came from Picard language or Walloon language words ''camberete'' or ''cambret'' for a small room (12th century). The first printed use of the word ''kaberet'' is found in a document from 1275 in Tournai. The term was ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
La Cinq
La Cinq () was France's first privately owned free-to-air television network. Created by politician Jérôme Seydoux and Italian media mogul Silvio Berlusconi, the network broadcast from 1985 to 1992. The contract for France's fifth terrestrial network, which was supposed to have been in effect for an 18-year term, was granted to Seydoux and Berlusconi in November 1985. Programming began on 20 February 1986 at 8:30 pm; the first program on La Cinq was ''Voilà la Cinq'', which was taped at Canale 5's studios in Milan, Italy. History Pre-launch (1985–1986) In 1985, a little over a year before the legislative elections, the Socialist Party feared failure and then wanted to create a new space, outside the institutional domain of public television, capable of reaching a large audience (contrary to the private subscription channel Canal+) and to constitute a relay of opinion to its ideas if it was to return to the opposition. On 20 November 1985, the government granted an 1 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Le Disney Channel
''Le Disney Channel'' was a French programming block on FR3 (now France 3, the second largest French public television channel and part of the France Télévisions group) from January 26, 1985, until December 31, 1988. The block's runtime was 8:35pm–10:00pm (UTC+1) on Saturday nights. On January 7, 1989, it was replaced with a cartoon-based block named ''Samdynamite''. Yet the show reached good ratings on FR3, but Disney wanted to impose its programs on FR3, FR3 refused to renew its contract and the latter was terminated. Disney would later sign a contract with TF1 (which by coïncidence, the network which terminated Disney's contract, FR3, was to be privatized into a private body, however the final decision was that of TF1).

One-person Show
A solo performance, sometimes referred to as a one-man show or one-woman show, features a single person telling a story for an audience, typically for the purpose of entertainment. This type of performance comes in many varieties, including autobiographical creations, comedy acts, novel adaptations, vaudeville, poetry, music and dance. In 1996, Rob Becker's ''Defending the Caveman'' became the longest running solo (one man) play in the history of Broadway. Traits of solo performance Solo performance is used to encompass the broad term of a single person performing for an audience. Some key traits of solo performance can include the lack of the fourth wall and audience participation or involvement. Solo performance does not need to be written, performed and produced by a single person—a solo performance production may use directors, writers, designers and composers to bring the piece to life on a stage. An example of this collaboration is Eric Bogosian in the published version o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
