Extrait : Tim Burton (né Timothy William Burton) est un réalisateur, scénariste et producteur américain né le 25 août 1958 à Burbank en Californie. Maître du fantastique fortement influencé par Edgar Allan Poe, excellent conteur et graphiste d'exception, on lui doit notamment Pee-Wee Big Adventure, Beetlejuice, Batman, Edward aux mains d'argent, Charlie et la Chocolaterie et Sweeney Todd : Le Diabolique Barbier de Fleet Street. Il a également rédigé les scénarios de L'Étrange Noël de monsieur Jack et des Noces funèbres, deux films d'animation réalisés avec des marionnettes évoluant dans des décors réels. Son cinéma se caractérise par des histoires mettant en scène des personnages marginaux et des êtres hors-normes confrontés à la méchanceté du monde réel. On y décèle également une grande influence du cinéma fantastique, du cinéma expressionniste allemand ainsi que des films de la Hammer Film Productions. Il fait partie des cinéastes qui parviennent à concilier succès critique et commercial. Il a été décoré de l'insigne de chevalier et d'officier de l'ordre national des Arts et des Lettres par Frédéric Mitterrand en mars 2010. Il a été le président du jury du Festival de Cannes en mai 2010. Aîné des deux fils de Jean et Bill Burton, Tim Burton passe l'essentiel de son enfance en solitaire, se considérant lui-même comme un introverti. Au soleil de la Californie, dans sa ville natale de Burbank, qu'il définit comme l'antichambre d'Hollywood, il préfère les salles obscures des cinémas où il voit et revoit les films de monstres comme Godzilla, Frankenstein et ses nombreuses suites, les ...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Alfred Thaddeus Crane Pennyworth is a fictional character that appears in comic books published by DC Comics The character first appears in Batman #16 (April-May 1943), and was created by writer Bob Kane and artist Jerry Robinson. Alfred serves as Batman?s (and Bruce Wayne's) tireless butler, assistant, confidante, and surrogate father figure, in modern interpretations this has gone to the point where Alfred was Bruce's legal guardian following the death of his parents. He has sometimes been called "Batman's batman." Alfred also provides comic relief, as his sometimes sarcastic and cynical attitude often adds humor to dialogue occurring between himself and the obsessed Batman. Alfred is a vital part of the Batman mythos, and appears in most other media adaptations of the character. The character of Alfred has been consistently popular over the years, having received a nomination for the R.A.C. "Squiddy" Award for Favorite Supporting Character in 1994 and for Best Character in 2001.

Ses interprétations ont souvent été remarquées par la critique, notamment pour son premier grand rôle au cinéma, celui de Sid Vicious, le second bassiste des , qu'il a endossé dans Sid et Nancy en 1986, performance toujours acclamée depuis. Il est réputé pour sa performance d'acteur dans l'interprétation pleine de justesse de ses personnages, pour sa capacité à changer de voix ou d'accent pour chaque rôle et pour son retrait de la scène hollywoodienne, étant souvent considéré comme un « » comme le sont entre autres Meryl Streep et Robert De Niro.

Chapters: Empress Matilda, Helena Bonham Carter, Tim Burton, H. H. Asquith, Hugh Macdonald Sinclair, David Astor, Thomas Beckington, Thomas Brunce. Excerpt:David Astor Francis David Langhorne Astor CH (5 March 1912, London 7 December 2001, London ) was an English newspaper publisher and member of the prominent Astor family . Early life and education David Astor was the third child of American-born parents, Waldorf Astor, 2nd Viscount Astor (1879 1952) and Nancy Witcher Langhorne (1879 1964). The product of an immensely wealthy business dynasty, and raised in the grandeur of a great country estate where the political and intellectual elite of the time gathered, he nevertheless had an instinctive compassion for the poor and those who were the victims of destructive socioeconomic policies. An extremely shy man, David Astor was greatly influenced by his father but as a young man he rebelled against his strong-willed mother. Educated at Eton College he went on to Oxford University where he suffered a nervous breakdown and left in 1933 without obtaining a degree. He was psychoanalysed by Anna Freud and during World War II he served with distinction and was wounded in France . Early career While at Balliol College, Oxford in 1931, he met a young anti-fascist German, named Adam von Trott zu Solz , who was to become the most influential figure in his life. Von Trott's involvement in the 1944 plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler led to his execution. In 1936, Astor joined the Yorkshire Post newspaper where he worked for a year then joined his father's newspaper, The Observer where he would serve as editor for 27 years. With his father's advancing age, and high inheritance taxes in England, in 1945 David Astor and his brother transferred ownership of the paper to a board of trustees. The trust contain... ...
