...find Marechal, Boeldieu, Rosenthal (Marcel Dialio), a Jewish couturier, and Cartier (Julien Carette), a music hall performer comfortable in a beautiful German setting. When the camera pans, Tudor manors and a sweeping countryside grace the vista. Similarly, while the camp is a POW camp, the prisoners are fed, exercised and treated reasonably well...
Like so many photographers of his day, and not just of his day, Brassai occasionally posed some of the people in pictures that look at first glance like candids. By the 1930s, photographers like Andre Kertesz and Henri Cartier-Bresson had begun to use the new 35-mm handheld Leicas, equipment that could capture fast movement. Brassai persisted in working with a Voigtlander Bergheil. A camera that used small glass plates instead of film--Brassai would eventually adapt it for conventional film--it required a tripod and long exposures. That in turn meant that his subjects usually knew they were...
...unlikely sight of a "simple monk" (as he always calls himself)--born and raised in a culture that had scarcely seen a Westerner when the century began--now seeming as visible, and even as fashionable, a figure as Richard Gere. John Cleese speaks out for him in London, Henri Cartier-Bresson records his teachings around France, Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys interviews him in Rome for Rolling Stone. In the past few years he has opened 11 Offices of Tibet, everywhere from Canberra to Moscow, and last year alone provided prefaces and forewords for roughly 30 books. The 14th...
...hide her game. On the evidence, her well-documented ambitions, appetites and acquisitiveness were swaddled in social graces.

As Averell Harriman's wife and widow, she became a patron of defeated Democrats, opening her house to promising politicians, Bill Clinton among them. According to the numbers, Pamela Harriman was an effective party fund raiser, although not an especially generous contributor...
...whole, however, director Jacques Cartier has brought a triumphant production of Tom Stoppard's "Arcadia" to the Huntington Stage. The play's dialogue is intricate to the point of virtuosity, so much that the plottiness of the play almost seems to distract from its real virtue, the language. But audience members can enjoy both of these aspects, as well as the smooth performances, attractive sets and still more attractive cast members. The production deserves the praise it is receiving, and students should take advantage of rush discounts and see this wordy, intellectual tour de force...
