Frankly, up until he recently passed away, my impression of Paul Newman had always been vague. I remember more of the old Paul Newman than the young Paul Newman who was at the height of his fame. I remember him best in the awesome ROAD TO PERDITION. (And also for the Newman’s Own food products I used to see at Perth supermarkets). One of the most beautiful scenes of ROAD TO PERDITION, but don’t watch this if you want to avoid spoilers The earliest film I’ve seen of him was considered a film made during the twilight of his career, Martin Scorsese’s THE COLOR OF MONEY (1986), which starred him and Tom Cruise and finally won Newman his first Oscar for Best Actor (one year after he received his Lifetime Achievement Award!). Unfortunately, up until now, I’ve never seen the films that were considered his classics, like HUD, COOL-HAND LUKE (Dad loves this film), THE STING and BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID, t...

Balancing Social Responsibility With Corporate ProfitFrom: onlinearticlearchive.com

Although large corporations have a reputation for being run by evil men who cackle and rub their hands together as they destroy the environment, many have used their profits to do good. However it can be hard to find equilibrium between making money and helping people. Working with outsourced accounting services can help your company to form a strategy to do both and that strategy will depend on your core motivation for running your business.
Motivation #1: I Want To Make Money

The Days of the Wild West Are Gone? Not According to Bonnie Springs, Old NevadaFrom: kinwashi.org
Post Date: 2008-11-01 11:19:29
What is it about the Old West that still intrigues even the youngest of folks? Could it be, the freedom of roaming the desert and plains on horseback with nothing but a gun on your side and a pack of gear? Perhaps it is because this was a time when the only thing you had to worry about was hunting your meat and growing your vegetables, keeping a fire going, and the occasional gunslinger riding through town. No matter what it is that makes us love the stories of the old west, those days are g...

I’ve trying to find a child actress for my new short film during the past few days. In addition to that, I’ve also been recovering from a mild case of food poisoning (I’ve been visiting the toilet pretty frequently) I’ve managed to find myself a child actress this morning, which was really an act of desperation. Before that, I’ve been gathering the contacts of professional child actresses, I tried to avoid those who were represented by agents because... I c...

Swifty Reviews ’Dance of the Dragon 龙之舞’From: swiftywriting.blogspot.com
Post Date: 2008-09-05 12:12:56
My dad suggested yesterday that I should try to go to the cinema and catch DANCE OF THE DRAGON, a film I’ve never heard of starring Fann Wong and Korean actor Jang Hyuk (’Volcano High’ and ’Windstruck’). He said that he heard the film had won numerous awards at some film festival lately, which made me a little curious, so I tried to check its info on the newspapers, and on its tiny poster, it listed out the glorious awards it won at the inaugural WEST H...

The view from my planeFrom: swiftywriting.blogspot.com

Finally reached Malaysia last night. My plane was 10am, but if you follow my Twitter , you’ll know that I decided to go to Narita Airport the night before and slept there. I didn’t want to face the risk of missing an early train to the airport and miss the flight since the check-in time was supposed to be 7:30am. My initial plan was either to hang out at a McDonald’s or a Starbucks, and while the airport has those, they weren’t open for 24 hours. I was horrified. What ...

Aside from PONYO ON THE CLIFF BY THE SEA , this film is THE Japanese film event of the year. The first installment of an ambitious, sprawling trilogy with a reported total budget of 6 billion yen (that’s 60 million USD, posters claim that it’s an all-time high) starring Japan’s most popular actors and comedians (it’s the most star-studded Japanese film I’ve seen since Mitani’s THE MAGIC HOUR ) and based on a 24-volume award-winning mang...
