Secrets d'Histoire - Un homme nommé Jésus (Intégrale)

Depuis notre précédent épisode de « Secrets d’Histoire » sur Jésus, de nouvelles découvertes archéologiques ont été faites. L’histoire est en perpétuel mouvement et nous apporte son lot d’étonnants rebondissements.

Dans ce numéro exceptionnel de « Secrets d’Histoire », Stéphane Bern nous emmène dans une nouvelle enquête sur Jésus, l’homme, le Prophète avec les vérités avérées par de nombreux chercheurs et les mystères qui entourent encore sa vie et son culte. L’existence de Jésus comme l’attestent de multiples témoignages, textes païens comme religieux, est difficilement contestable.

Au-delà des mystères de la nativité, des paroles et des actes du Prophète, des miracles accomplis par celui qui se dit fils de Dieu selon les Évangiles, qui était l’homme ? Charismatique : cela ne fait aucun doute mais aussi colérique et parfois violent contre ceux qui le trahissent. Compatissant et généreux, son message va bouleverser les ordres religieux établis mais aussi façonner de nouveaux équilibres politiques, défaire des Empires et unir des peuples pour créer des nations nouvelles.

Stéphane Bern et « Secrets d’Histoire » vous entraînent des rives du Lac de Tibériade, dans le désert de Judée, aux bords de la Mer Morte de Nazareth à Jérusalem, de la naissance de Jésus à sa crucifixion, jusqu’à Reims, où le roi Clovis se fait baptiser pour créer ce qui deviendra plus tard une nouvelle nation et inaugurer ainsi une longue lignée de rois chrétiens.

La Donna della Domenica - Film Completo Full Movie Multi Subs by Film&Clips

di Luigi Comencini. Con Marcello Mastroianni, Jacqueline Bisset, Jean-Louis Trintignant. 105 min. - Italia, Francia, 1975

Un commissario indaga sull'assassinio di un uomo, di cui la principale indiziata è l'aristocratica Anna Carla.

Police commissioner Santamaria is investigating the murdering of the ambiguous architect Mr. Garrone. The investigations soon drive him into the Torino's high society. Santamaria suspect Anna Carla and at the same time falls in love with her. Lello is the lover of Massimo, a homosexual platonic friend of Anna Carla. He is following another direction in order to find out the truth, and his results are confusing the Policeman. But another murdering happens.

À Turin, le minable architecte Garrone, mondain et obsédé sexuel, est assassiné à l'aide d'un gros phallus de pierre qui lui appartenait. Le commissaire Santamaria, originaire de Rome et peu familier avec la capitale du Piémont, est diligenté sur l'affaire. Il soupçonne d'abord Anna Carla Dosio, riche bourgeoise qui s'ennuie auprès de son industriel de mari : deux domestiques qu'elle venait de renvoyer ont en effet livré à la police un brouillon de lettre où elle semblait souhaiter la mort de Garrone. Le destinataire de la lettre, Massimo Campi, issu d'une grande famille, devient dès lors suspect aussi, d'autant qu'il cache avoir passé le soir du crime avec son petit ami, Lello Riviera, jeune fonctionnaire municipal qui décide de mener sa propre enquête pour le sauver. Santamaria, aidé par son collègue De Palma et à l'occasion par une Anna Carla réjouie de cet intermède pimenté, découvre les différents aspects et quartiers de la ville : snobisme et futilité charmante de certains oisifs, vaste trafic de phallus sculptés, somptueuses villas anciennes sur les collines, jardins de l'austère veuve Inès Tabusso — champ de prostitution nocturne qu'elle voudrait bien lotir —, marché aux puces pittoresque du Balôn... où Lello est tué à son tour. Mis sur la piste par la possibilité dans le dialecte turinois d'un jeu de mots entre « poire » et « pierre », et par les complicités de Garrone avec un employé, voyeur comme lui, du service d'urbanisme de la ville, Santamaria finit par démasquer la coupable : Inès Tabusso, que l'architecte faisait chanter en la menaçant de bloquer son projet de lotissement. Le modeste commissaire et la séduisante Anna Carla peuvent désormais céder à leur attirance mutuelle.

Un famoso arquitecto de la alta sociedad turinesa aparece asesinado. De la investigación del caso se ocupa el inspector de policía Salvatore Santamaria. A medida que avanzan sus pesquisas, se sentirá cada vez más atraído por una de las principales sospechosas, la guapa y rica Anna Carla Dosio.

Subways Are for Sleeping / Only Johnny Knows / Colloquy 2: A Dissertation on Love

Subways Are for Sleeping is a musical with a book and lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green and music by Jule Styne. The original Broadway production played in 1961-62.

The musical was inspired by an article about subway homelessness in the March 1956 issue of Harper's and a subsequent 1957 book based on it, both by Edmund G. Love, who slept on subway trains throughout the 1950s and encountered many unique individuals. With the profits from his book, Love then embarked on a bizarre hobby: over the course of several years, he ate dinner at every restaurant listed in the Manhattan yellow pages directory, visiting them in alphabetical order.

After two previews, the Broadway production, directed and choreographed by Michael Kidd, opened on December 27, 1961 at the St. James Theatre, where it ran for 205 performances. The cast included Orson Bean, Sydney Chaplin, Carol Lawrence, Gordon Connell, Grayson Hall, and Green's wife Phyllis Newman (whose costume, consisting solely of a towel, was probably Freddy Wittop's easiest design in his distinguished career), with newcomers Michael Bennett and Valerie Harper in the chorus.

Subways Are for Sleeping opened to mostly negative reviews. The show already was hampered by a lack of publicity, since the New York City Transit Authority refused to post advertisements on the city's buses and in subway trains and stations for fear they would be perceived as officially sanctioning the right of vagrants to use these facilities as overnight accommodations. Producer David Merrick and press agent Harvey Sabinson decided to invite individuals with the same names as prominent theatre critics (such as Walter Kerr, Richard Watts, Jr. and Howard Taubman) to see the show and afterwards used their favorable comments in print ads. Thanks to photographs of the seven critics accompanying their blurbs (the well-known real Richard Watts was not African American), the ad was discovered to be a deception by a copy editor. It was pulled from most newspapers, but not before running in an early edition of the New York Herald Tribune. However, the clever publicity stunt allowed the musical to continue to run and it eventually turned a small profit.

Newman won the Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Musical, and nominations went to Bean for Best Featured Actor and Kidd's choreography.

The Case of the White Kitten / Portrait of London / Star Boy

London is the capital city of England and the United Kingdom, the largest city, urban zone and metropolitan area in the United Kingdom, and the European Union by most measures.[note 1] Located on the River Thames, London has been a major settlement for two millennia, its history going back to its founding by the Romans, who named it Londinium.[3] London's ancient core, the City of London, largely retains its square-mile mediaeval boundaries. Since at least the 19th century, the name London has also referred to the metropolis developed around this core.[4] The bulk of this conurbation forms the London region[5] and the Greater London administrative area,[6][note 2] governed by the elected Mayor of London and the London Assembly.[7]

London is a leading global city, with strengths in the arts, commerce, education, entertainment, fashion, finance, healthcare, media, professional services, research and development, tourism and transport all contributing to its prominence.[8] It is the world's leading financial centre alongside New York City[9][10][11] and has the fifth- or sixth-largest metropolitan area GDP in the world depending on measurement.[note 3][12][13] London has been described as a world cultural capital.[14][15][16][17] It is the world's most-visited city measured by international arrivals[18] and has the world's largest city airport system measured by passenger traffic.[19] London's 43 universities form the largest concentration of higher education in Europe.[20] In 2012, London became the first city to host the modern Summer Olympic Games three times.[21]

London has a diverse range of peoples and cultures, and more than 300 languages are spoken within its boundaries.[22] In March 2011, London had an official population of 8,174,100, making it the most populous municipality in the European Union,[23][24] and accounting for 12.5% of the UK population.[25] The Greater London Urban Area is the second-largest in the EU with a population of 8,278,251,[26] while the London metropolitan area is the largest in the EU with an estimated total population of between 12 million[27] and 14 million.[28] London had the largest population of any city in the world from around 1831 to 1925.[29]. The latest census reveals white Britons as minority in London for first time in modern times. [30] London contains four World Heritage Sites: the Tower of London; Kew Gardens; the site comprising the Palace of Westminster, Westminster Abbey, and St Margaret's Church; and the historic settlement of Greenwich (in which the Royal Observatory marks the Prime Meridian, 0° longitude, and GMT).[31] Other famous landmarks include Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, Piccadilly Circus, St Paul's Cathedral, Tower Bridge, Trafalgar Square, and The Shard. London is home to numerous museums, galleries, libraries, sporting events and other cultural institutions, including the British Museum, National Gallery, Tate Modern, British Library, Wimbledon, and 40 West End theatres.[32] The London Underground is the oldest underground railway network in the world and will complete 150 years of operations on 9 January 2013.[33][34]

Ocean's 8

Five years, eight months, 12 days...and counting. That’s how long Debbie Ocean (Sandra Bullock) has been devising the biggest heist of her life. She knows what it’s going to take—a team of the best in their field, starting with her partner-in-crime Lou Miller (Cate Blanchett). Together, they recruit a crew of specialists: jeweler Amita (Mindy Kaling); street con Constance (Awkwafina); expert fence Tammy (Sarah Paulson); hacker Nine Ball (Rihanna); and fashion designer Rose (Helena Bonham Carter). The target is a cool $150 million dollars in diamonds—diamonds that will be around the neck of world-famous actress Daphne Kluger (Anne Hathaway), who will be centerstage at the event of the year, the Met Gala. The plan is rock solid, but everything will need to be flawless if the team is going to get in and get away with the ice. All in plain sight.

Our Miss Brooks: Conklin the Bachelor / Christmas Gift Mix-up / Writes About a Hobo / Hobbies

Our Miss Brooks is an American situation comedy starring Eve Arden as a sardonic high school English teacher. It began as a radio show broadcast from 1948 to 1957. When the show was adapted to television (1952--56), it became one of the medium's earliest hits. In 1956, the sitcom was adapted for big screen in the film of the same name.

Connie (Constance) Brooks (Eve Arden), an English teacher at fictional Madison High School.
Osgood Conklin (Gale Gordon), blustery, gruff, crooked and unsympathetic Madison High principal, a near-constant pain to his faculty and students. (Conklin was played by Joseph Forte in the show's first episode; Gordon succeeded him for the rest of the series' run.) Occasionally Conklin would rig competitions at the school--such as that for prom queen--so that his daughter Harriet would win.
Walter Denton (Richard Crenna, billed at the time as Dick Crenna), a Madison High student, well-intentioned and clumsy, with a nasally high, cracking voice, often driving Miss Brooks (his self-professed favorite teacher) to school in a broken-down jalopy. Miss Brooks' references to her own usually-in-the-shop car became one of the show's running gags.
Philip Boynton (Jeff Chandler on radio, billed sometimes under his birth name Ira Grossel); Robert Rockwell on both radio and television), Madison High biology teacher, the shy and often clueless object of Miss Brooks' affections.
Margaret Davis (Jane Morgan), Miss Brooks' absentminded landlady, whose two trademarks are a cat named Minerva, and a penchant for whipping up exotic and often inedible breakfasts.
Harriet Conklin (Gloria McMillan), Madison High student and daughter of principal Conklin. A sometime love interest for Walter Denton, Harriet was honest and guileless with none of her father's malevolence and dishonesty.
Stretch (Fabian) Snodgrass (Leonard Smith), dull-witted Madison High athletic star and Walter's best friend.
Daisy Enright (Mary Jane Croft), Madison High English teacher, and a scheming professional and romantic rival to Miss Brooks.
Jacques Monet (Gerald Mohr), a French teacher.

Our Miss Brooks was a hit on radio from the outset; within eight months of its launch as a regular series, the show landed several honors, including four for Eve Arden, who won polls in four individual publications of the time. Arden had actually been the third choice to play the title role. Harry Ackerman, West Coast director of programming, wanted Shirley Booth for the part, but as he told historian Gerald Nachman many years later, he realized Booth was too focused on the underpaid downside of public school teaching at the time to have fun with the role.

Lucille Ball was believed to have been the next choice, but she was already committed to My Favorite Husband and didn't audition. Chairman Bill Paley, who was friendly with Arden, persuaded her to audition for the part. With a slightly rewritten audition script--Osgood Conklin, for example, was originally written as a school board president but was now written as the incoming new Madison principal--Arden agreed to give the newly-revamped show a try.

Produced by Larry Berns and written by director Al Lewis, Our Miss Brooks premiered on July 19, 1948. According to radio critic John Crosby, her lines were very feline in dialogue scenes with principal Conklin and would-be boyfriend Boynton, with sharp, witty comebacks. The interplay between the cast--blustery Conklin, nebbishy Denton, accommodating Harriet, absentminded Mrs. Davis, clueless Boynton, scheming Miss Enright--also received positive reviews.

Arden won a radio listeners' poll by Radio Mirror magazine as the top ranking comedienne of 1948-49, receiving her award at the end of an Our Miss Brooks broadcast that March. I'm certainly going to try in the coming months to merit the honor you've bestowed upon me, because I understand that if I win this two years in a row, I get to keep Mr. Boynton, she joked. But she was also a hit with the critics; a winter 1949 poll of newspaper and magazine radio editors taken by Motion Picture Daily named her the year's best radio comedienne.

For its entire radio life, the show was sponsored by Colgate-Palmolive-Peet, promoting Palmolive soap, Lustre Creme shampoo and Toni hair care products. The radio series continued until 1957, a year after its television life ended.
