"Excerpt from Rambles About the RivieraThe book has no sequence. It consists of mere detached fragments; glimpses, caught in passing, of old walled towns and feudal fortresses, of gorges, and rivers, and ancient churches, of happy peasants, and forgotten saints, in fact of anything which struck my fancy, and which I thought might strike that of my readers.There are many places I should have liked to have spoken about, well-known places, ..."
"Grab your dreams, come out of your corner and step out swinging. The double Oscar winner The Champ is ready to take on the world! With feet planted, chin tucked and its heart unashamedly on its sleeve, this original father-son tale (remade in 1979) remains one of the all-time great tearjerkers. In an Academy Award-winning Best Actor performance, burly Wallace Beery - he of the fog-cutter voice and gruff warmth - plays the washed-up priz ..."

"Paris, 1847: Das Leben ist so prickelnd wie Champagner und so gnadenlos wie der graue Morgen danach. In Spielsalons und auf verschwenderischen Soirées geben wohlhabende Männer den Ton an - und die als Kurtisanen abgestempelten Frauen genießen das Leben in vollen Zügen. Zu ihnen gehört auch Marguerite Gautier (Greta Garbo), die Kameliendame in dieser opulenten Romanze nach der unsterblichen Geschichte von Alexandre Dumas. Garbos mystisch ..."
" It's one of the most highly anticipated entrances in movie history: Greta Garbo slinking into a sleazy waterfront bar and ordering whiskey. Well, "visky." A huge silent star, Garbo was speaking her first lines in her first talking picture, Anna Christie, and audiences were breathless with anticipation. As The New York Times put it, "The low enunciation of her initial lines, with a packed theater waiting expectantly to hear her first u ..."
"A young Rick Schroder makes his cute-as-all-get-out film debut in this 1979 tearjerker from director Franco Zeffirelli. Jon Voight plays Billy Flynn, a former champion boxer now given to drinking, gambling, and raising his son T.J. (Schroder, billed here as Ricky) as best he can.

"Love's memories, love recalling itself in letters lost and found over an interval of forty years: Cixous's writer-narrator advances here far into a labyrinth of passions long ago delivered and yet still arriving through the mail, through letters and literature, in other words, the poetry of the post. As for the lovers' returning scenes, they have their addresses in Paris (rue Olivier de Serres, Avenue de Choisy, street names that endles ..."
