Natasha Richardson passed away 15 years ago. I knew her primarily from her stage work. She shone on Broadway in “Anna Christie,” “Cabaret” and “Closer.” May memories of her continue to be a blessing to those that she left behind. #natasharichardson #InMemoriam #inlovingmemory

Red Sea parting in The Ten Commandments (1956) took six months and $1 million to film. DeMille’s team flooded a massive tank with 360,000 gallons of water and reversed the footage. Nearly seven decades later, it still looks astonishing.

Fun fact. Italian singer Adriano Celentano released a song in the 1970s with nonsensical lyrics meant to sound like American English—to prove that Italians would just love any American song. And it was a hit.

The Peloponnesian War destroyed the Greek world and exposed the violence behind the civilized facade, much like the World Wars of the 20th century. Maxim Dmitrienko walks us through Thucydides' timeless History. 4:27 - The Peloponnesian War as the peak and end of the Greek world 9:04 - A defensive alliance becomes an empire 13:05 - The "truest cause" of the war 14:25 - Writing "a possession for all time" 27:00 - The tragedy of Athenian ambition 43:40 - Justice is only possible between equals 53:52 - Can you build a social order on nature alone? 1:23:07 - What men claim and what they do

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) ends in such a bittersweet way. The Fellowship is broken, Frodo quietly accepts he has to keep going alone, and Sam swimming after him anyway still feels like one of the purest moments of loyalty.

How many people could even conceive of doing THIS, let alone do it & pull it off so brilliantly on a primetime, entertainment TV show. ORSON WELLES — born 111yrs ago today — transforms himself into ‘Falstaff’ on THE DEAN MARTIN SHOW in 1968.

Agamemnon had provoked the wrath of the goddess Artemis by killing her sacred deer, resulting in the goddess causing a calm sea so that the fleet of the Achaeans could not sail from Aulis to Troy. They asked the seer Calchas what they should do, and he replied that the goddess's wrath would only subside if Agamemnon sacrificed his daughter Iphigenia. Initially, Agamemnon refused to do it, but he was pressured by Menelaus and Odysseus, and as the months passed, he summoned his daughter from Mycenae under the pretext that he would arrange her marriage to Achilles. Iphigenia arrived at Aulis, and then Agamemnon handed her over to Calchas to sacrifice her to Artemis. The scene in the video is from the Greek film "Iphigenia" of 1977 by Michael Cacoyannis. The entire film and its dialogues were exclusively based on the work of Euripides without any additional exaggerations or nonsense. Watch the video and now read the dialogue from the ancient text that I will write for you translated: IPHIGENIA: "Look, mother, how rightly I speak; upon me great Greece casts its eyes; from me depend the sailing of the ships and the destruction of the Phrygians; from me, the prevention of future barbarian attempts to abduct women from wealthy Greece henceforth, the payment for the abduction of Helen, whom Paris has stolen. Such is the salvation my death brings, and immortal fame I shall have; they will say I liberated Greece. And it does not befit me to be so fond of life; you bore me for the good of all Greeks and not for yourself alone. Thousands of shield-bearers, thousands of oarsmen, seeing their homeland wronged, will strike boldly at the enemies, and will die for Greece’s honor, and shall all this be hindered by one life, mine? Where is the justice in that? How could I oppose them? And another thing: for a stranger to enter war with all the Argives and die for one woman is unjust. The life of one man is more valuable than that of ten thousand women. And if Artemis wishes to take my body, shall I, a mortal, become an obstacle to the goddess? How could that be? I give my body to Greece; come, sacrifice me, take Ilion. These things will be my memorials for years to come: my marriage, my children, and my glory. It is right for Greeks to rule over barbarians, and not barbarians over Greeks; because barbarians are slaves, and Greeks are free." ACHILLES: "Some god would have made me blessed, if I were to take you, daughter of Agamemnon. Fortunate is Greece, which has you, fortunate are you, being Greek. You spoke well and in a manner worthy of your homeland; you do not wage war against the goddess who rules you; your mind turned both to reason and to fate. I saw your character, and thus my desire to unite with you is even greater; for you are a noble soul. And consider this: I want to help you and make you my wife; it will be a great burden for me, I swear by Thetis, if I do not fight the Argives to save you. A terrible evil is death, know that." IPHIGENIA: "I speak clearly before everyone. Helen ignites battles, and blood flows for her body; let her suffice; you, stranger, do not get killed for me and do not kill; and let me, if I can, save Greece." Source: Ἰφιγένεια ἡ ἐν Αὐλίδι (1402-1432) "Iphigenia at Aulis" was written by Euripides, which was performed in the year 405 BC, one year after the death of Euripides in 406 BC, by his son. It was written in the year 407 BC during the poet’s stay at the court of King Archelaus in Macedonia. It formed one part of a trilogy, along with the works "The Bacchae" and "Alcmaeon in Corinth", which won first prize. Amid all this, this text is yet another proof that the Greeks always knew where the limits (borders) of Greece reached and who belongs within them as well as who is Greek. Do not forget this when various "experts" tell you that Greece (as a whole) did not exist. Films based on the works of the Greeks promote patriotism, heroism, glory, and emphasize that everything revolves around the nation (έθνος) and religion (θρησκεία), around values and sacrifices for your country and your people. Modern society is afraid of these films. Those who control the "arts" hate them. Do you know why?
