Georges Lannes (1895–1983) was a French film actor who appeared in more than a hundred films during his career (1920-1961). In 1920-1922 he acted in ten films by Charles Maudru, starting with Près des cimes (1920) and Le Droit de tuer (1920), and including the Zola adaptation L'Assommoir (1921), in which Lannes played Lantier, the young, lazy worker, who abandons his wife Gervaise (Louise Sforza) and their two children. His co-actors with Maudru were e.g. Gaston Jacquet and Suzanne Delvé.
In the latter half of the 19th century, Sigmund Freud failed in his efforts to study, reconstruct, and understand the human brain. And for over a century man’s attempts have all been for naught in this endeavor, until there was George Hart. George Hart may look to be a geometric sculptor, but he’s actually the only person ever to reconstruct accurate models of the living human brain. You’ll see all the intricacies and facets of the mind in each and every represenation. This makes his work incredibly rare and ultra-valuable. Only a select few will ever be fortunate enough to see these marvels in real-life, consider yourself lucky. Find out more at www.creativetempest.com

George Orwell would have gone down in history as a middling writer had it not been for his last two novels, Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four which place him atop the list of most influential authors of the twentieth century. The movie 1984 came out in, not surprisingly, 1984. John Hurt is excellent as Winston Smith but the movie seems a bit drudgey. However, the music by The Eurythmics is a highlight.

In 1897 George Bulloch, a power loom manufacturer from Lancashire decided to build a little country retreat on his dad's holiday island of Rum. In those days it was spelt Rhum so as not to frighten the ladies. Having spent better than a quarter of a million on the house he decided he liked the place so much that he and Monica, Lady Bulloch should be buried there. His first attempt at a Mausolem was finished in black marble and pronounced as looking like a gents urinal so he had this modest structure knocked up. Good views and as it's so hard to get to Rum there is very little chance that this will be kicked over by vandals. SNH still make it quite difficult to get there.
