Our Daily Challenge: STARTS WITH THE LETTER "A"

Thea/Théa, originally Teresa Termini (born 1898), debuted in Italian silent film in 1915, with the film I Martiri di Belfiore (Augusta Film), a patriottic and anti-Austrian period piece, set in Mantova 1851 and directed by Alberto Carlo Lolli. The leads were played by Enna Saredo and Achille Vitti, Teresa had only a minor part. In 1916 Thea had only one role, it seems, in L'albergo nero, released only in 1920. So after I Martiri di Belfiore it took two years before she was again visible on the screen in Il segreto di Jack (dir. Henrique Santos, Cines 1917), in which Termini used her nom de plume Thea for the first time and in which she had the lead opposite a monkey called Jack. The reviewer of La Cine-fono demanded Thea to stop 'borelleggiare', that is act just like Lyda Borelli, and to be more natural, precise and characteristic. That critique of Borelli epigone remained in subsequent films. Il segreto di Jack though, proved to be such a successful film, that Thea's career really took off. Next followed two films with Aurele Sydney: Una strana avventura (dir. Sydney, Cines 1918) and L'Incubo (dir. Amleto Palermi, Cines 1918), and in between La reginetta Isotta (dir. unknown, Cines 1918). In 1919 Thea was very active, considering her output of performances in six different films: Primerose (dir.Mario Caserini, Cines), inspired by Borelli's debut Ma l'amor mio non muore whch had been directed by the same Caserini; La notte del 24 aprile (dir. unknown, Celio 1919); Incantesimo (dir. Ugo Gracci, Medusa-Film 1919); Il giogo (dir. Gaston Ravel, Cines 1919); L'agguato della morte (dir. Amleto Palermi, Cines 1919); and Capitan Fracassa (dir. Mario Caserini, Palatino-Film, 1919). Except for Incantesimo, Thea had the female lead in all the other films. If the reviewers didn't like her very much, she did attract huge crowds, in particular as the real Lyda Borelli had retired from acting in the previous year 1918, because of her marriage to count Vittorio Cini. Thea's last film was L'Albergo nero (1920), produced already in 1916 but only released in 1920. Director Gustavo Serena also played the male lead. Critics complained about the incomprehensability of the film, which might have had to do with cuts by the censor. In 1920 Thea married and withdrew from the screen, just like her big example Borelli had done.
Today almost all films of Thea are lost. In 1991 a fragment of La notte del 24 aprile was found at the Netherlands Filmmuseum and presented at the Cinema Ritrovato film festival in Bologna.

Alberto Seveso redefines the term “body art” for Creative Tempest. For us, it no longer conjures images of tattoo parlors, Mardi Gras, or two-page spreads in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, no, instead we envision Alberto’s unique work. Alberto Seveso takes the human body (generally attractive female bodies) and uses it as a canvas for his abstract designs, but since his work is digital, he is freed from the restraints of a tangible human form. He is able to disassemble like a puzzle, make translucent like a silk scarf held up to the sun, or replace like a Mr. Potato Head, parts of the bodies that he works with as the basis for his designs. In addition, more than being creative in his choice of canvas, Alberto creates finely intricate designs that would be gorgeous on their own. Find out more at www.creativetempest.com

Alberto Nepoti (1876-1937) was one of the leading men in Italian silent cinema, often paired with Pina Menichelli.
Born in Florence, and 'figlio d'arte' (his parents were actors too), Nepoti started out in prose theatre. He debuted in in film in 1909, at Film d'Arte Italiana, the Roman studio branch of Pathé, where had some major parts, but afterward returned to the stage. In 1912 he began at the Turin based company Savoia, where he had supporting parts, but also co-directed with Ubaldo Del Colle his first film: an adaptation of Goldoni's La locandiera (1913). In the same year he also got leads at Savoia, e.g. in Capriccio millardario. In 1914 he stepped over to Leonardo Film, where he had the lead in Il fornaretto di Venezia (1914) by Luigi Maggi. Despite a huge salary, Nepoti had a shortlived contract at the Photo-Drama company of Grugliasco, which stopped its activity when in September 1914 the First World War broke out. In 1915 Nepoti worked in Rome at the Cines company. While several sources mention he acted in Rapsodia satanica, starring Lyda Borelli, in the surviving prints he is absent.
Yet, the role that crowned the apex of Nepoti's career was that of the diplomat Giorgio Ferlita opposite Pina Menichelli as countess Natka in Giovanni Pastrone's passionate drama Tigre reale (1916), made for Pastrone's company Itala. It was the start of a series of Itala films with Menichelli, including La trilogia di Dorina (1917), La Gemma di Sant'Eremo (1918), La passaggera (1918), and La moglie di Claudio (1918). At Itala, Nepoti also acted in films with Valentina Frascaroli and Italia Almirante Manzini (e.g. Il matrimonio di Olimpia, 1918). In 1919-1920 Nepoti worked at the Neapolitan companies Polifilms and Lombardo Films in films with Leda Gys, while in 1918-22 he also worked in Rome for the companies De Giglio, Palatino and Celio. His last part Alberto Nepoti played was that of a friar in Frate Francesco (1927) by Giulio Antamoro, made by the company ICSA of his native Florence.

Decided to sell my Alberto set. In the end I decided against purchasing the doll this was meant for and none of of my other boys suit it so...
I am the second owner of this set. The box is a little dented but the contents are perfect condition. I've tried it on my doll Edan once.
The mask and Cape set will be sold separately.
The mask was painted by the original owner.
May I present to you: The brothers Bujar (12) and Alberto (14) from the country of Montenegro.
I met these two, very friendly boys today on their way to the super store. Both didn't understand much of what I said, so we used an translation app. So that worked out pretty good.
Both boys are here since 30 days and had to flee from their homeland, becaused they and their family suffered racial defamation back there.
As I know that in these days a great deal of Germans like #Pegida (and many others, that don't go to demonstrations) are against refugees in our country, I hope that Bujar and Alberto won't have to flee again. From here.
Keep on, guys. You are the best. Stay strong, whatever may come.
