At 11.40pm on 14 April 1912; the RMS Titanic; on its maiden voyage from Southampton to New York; struck an iceberg. At 2.20am the following morning; the ship sank. 1;517 people died.In response to the disaster the British Government ordered an immediate inquiry and Lord Mersey was appointed commissioner. The British Wreck Commissioners Inquiry sat from 2 May to 3 July 1912. It took testimony from 97 witnesses.Owen McCaffertys Titanic retells the survivors stories; using dialogue taken word-for-word from the hundred-year-old accounts. Full of intrigue; bravery and human frailty; this courtroom drama premiered in April 2012 as the inaugural production of the MAC; Belfast.

Jaqques Tati for the novice and experienced.By awesselsBellos biography of Jaqcques Tati do not only provide a detailed historical description. but brings Tati the producer and actor alive right there on the kindle. For the novice. it certainly tantalizes you to Tatis films within a few chapters. confirming the acutely sensitive understanding of the French artist. The historical contexts remained interesting. A good read for any one interested in biography. history. film and art. The rather detailed descriptions of all the film productions perhaps for the specialist reader.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Almost all you wanted to know about Mr HulotBy Charles J ZiarkoWell-researched and organized and gave me a lot of insight into the man behind the internationally famous M. Hulot. Interesting production information. but would have been happier with more production details and more detailed credits.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. excellentBy Angela Lloydexcellent
