Die 1960er , die irgendwo zwischen den verklemmten Fünfzigern und den unbekümmerten Siebzigern eingespannt waren, bildeten ein Übergangsjahrzehnt für die Filmindustrie . Wo Kunst, Massenmarkt und Popkultur in echter Pop-Art-Manier aufeinanderprallten und miteinander verschmolzen, wurde eine wahre Welle psychedelischer Energie im Kino freigesetzt. Dieser Leitfaden versammelt die besten Filme dieser Epoche und ergründet die Entstehung und die Meisterhaftigkeit solch cineastischer Knüller wie Der Leopard , Die Vögel , Belle de Jour - Schöne des Tages , Für eine Handvoll Dollar und Doktor Schiwago . In einer Zeit, in der das Publikum immer häufiger an den Bildschirmen klebte und die Abschaffung der Selbstzensur die Regeln des auf der Leinwand "Zulässigen" lockerten, genossen Filmemacher die Freiheit, die Möglichkeiten des Films als Kunstform zu erkunden. Wie so häufig waren auch hier die Europäer Wegbereiter: die Franzosen mit Regisseuren der Nouvelle Vague wie Godard und Truffaut und die Italiener mit so innovativen Filmen wie Fellinis Achteinhalb und Antonionis Liebe 1962 (DDR-Titel: Sonnenfinsternis ). Um die Mitte der sechziger Jahre begannen auch die Vereinigten Staaten, größere schöpferische Freiheiten auszuleben, vor allem in den Filmen junger Untergrundregisseure wie Russ Meyer, John Frankenheimer und Sam Peckinpah . Gleichzeitig ließen Mary Poppins und Meine Lieder - Meine Träume die prachtvolle Musical-Ära Hollywoods mit einem Paukenschlag ausklingen, während der Spaghettiwestern schlagartig zum Phänomen avancierte und Kubrick neue Maßstäbe für Sci-fi-Filme mit 2001: Odyssee im Weltraum setzte. Auch wenn der Begriff "Feminismus" noch nicht massentauglich gewesen sein mag, brachte das Jahrzehnt doch bedeutende Fortschritte in der Darstellung von Frauen. Von Jane Fondas Barbarella über Holly Golightly in Frühstück bei Tiffany bis zu Bonnie Parker aus Bonnie und Clyde waren es die Sechziger, in denen sich Frauen auf der Leinwand von dekorativem Beiwerk zu schlagfertigen und schlagkräftigen Persönlichkeiten weiterentwickelten .
Die 70er-Jahre - diese magische Ära zwischen den Swinging Sixties und den dekadenten 80ern, die Epoche der Schlaghosen, des Yachtrocks und des Afrolooks, das Zeitalter der Discomusik und der Plateauschuhe : Während in Vietnam die Napalmbomben explodierten und Europa im Kalten Krieg fröstelte, erholte sich Hollywood von seiner kommerziellen Krise, mit Erfolgen wie Star Wars, Der Weiße Hai, Der Exorzist und Der Pate . Dank Regisseuren wie Steven Spielberg und George Lucas brachte das amerikanische Kino ein neues Phänomen hervor: den Blockbuster . Sein Einfluss reichte bis über den Atlantik, wo in Frankreich der Nouvelle Vague gerade die Luft ausging, während in Deutschland der Neue Deutsche Film von Fassbinder, Wenders und Herzog seine besten Zeiten feierte. Die sexuelle Revolution kam auf die Leinwand (vorsichtig in den USA, freizügiger in Europa), vor allem in Bertoluccis skandalösem Der letzte Tango in Paris . Zugleich lagen nostalgische Filme hoch im Kurs (Der Clou, Die letzte Vorstellung) , Katastrophenfilme, Filme über den Krieg in Vietnam (Apocalypse Now, Die durch die Hölle gehen) , das kurzlebige Genre der Blaxploitation und die neuen Antihelden wie Robert De Niro, Al Pacino und Dustin Hoffman .

Hundreds of thousands of people all over the world use Darebee bodyweight, no-equipment workouts to exercise at home. The 100 Workouts Book is for everyone who wants to stay active, get fit, build muscle tone and/or shed extra weight in the comfort of your home without requiring any extra equipment. Be in complete control of your fitness. Customize each workout to your level. Start with the ones that play to your strengths. Workout for your own specific needs. The easy-to-follow, visual approach and three-difficulty Levels system puts you in complete control of your fitness: No more gym memberships (save your money for other things) No more worrying about gym clothes (exercise in your underwear). No more worrying about finding time to exercise (do it any time you want). And no more worrying about equipment or space (you need zero of the first and remarkably little of the second). Different workouts will ensure that your muscles don't get used to the same regime, giving you more in return, and also help you stay active and not get bored with the same routine. Some of the workouts are more challenging and some are easier than others so you will never get bored. All have three different levels you can try them at, so there is always something to aim for. Easy-to-follow visual routines guide you through the workout, as you go from one exercise to the next, in an easier fashion than in a video. Just follow the routine and have fun! You don't have to work through the entire book; you can pick the workouts you like most or randomly select one and make it a workout of the day. Ideally you want to do 3-4 workouts per week. Each workout is customizable to your level of fitness. There is a break of up to two minutes between workouts so you're never too tired to go on. By the time you complete each one you will be an entirely different person inside and out. By far the biggest difference will be in how you feel in your own physical ability and confidence in yourself.

Einhundert Fotos bekannter und wenig bekannter Berliner Orte - stets unbevölkert - zum Verschicken im Postkartenformat. Kaum hat man Berlin je so gesehen. "Ikonographische Bilder aus Berlin kennt man zu Genüge und in verschiedenen Tonalitäten: Sarah Eick gelingt nun das große Kunststück, das auch Urberliner:innen, die sehr viele Fotografien über ihre Heimatstadt gesehen haben, noch Bewunderung abverlangt: ihre Fotos geben zwei fellos Berliner Motive wieder, doch gleichzeitig sind es Werke von einer großen, translokalen, abstraktpoetischen Qualität. Eigentümlich kontextlos, fast wie Ufos, wirken die bekannten Gebäude und Stadtansichten. Ohne jede Form von historisierendem oder nostalgi schem Pathos lässt Eick ihnen eine große Würde zukommen. Selbst eine ImbissBude sieht bei ihr erhaben aus." - Tanja Dückers, Schriftstellerin, Publizistin und Kunsthistorikerin

On the eve of his 100th birthday, national treasure Dick Van Dyke brings us this autobiographical collection of life advice, stories, and reflections on how he's maintained good health and a zest for life as he enters his tenth decade.Dick Van Dyke danced his way into our hearts with iconic roles in Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and The Dick Van Dyke Show. Now, as he's about to turn 100 years old, Dick is still dancing, still approaching life with the twinkle in his eye that we've come to know and love. In 100 RULES FOR LIVING TO 100, he reveals his secrets for maintaining your joie de vivre, staying physically healthy, and making the most out of the life you've been given. Through stories from his past and present-the pivotal moments from childhood to film sets to his expansive family and finding love late in life-Dick reflects on both the joyful times and the challenges that shaped him. His indefatigable spirit and positive attitude will surely inspire readers to count the blessings in their own lives, persevere through the hard times, and appreciate the beauty and complexity of being human.PRAISE FOR KEEP MOVING"Dick Van Dyke has been in our collective consciousness a very long time, from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Mary Poppins, to Diagnosis: Murder and The Dick Van Dyke Show. What's the secret to staying young? The popular movie and television stars [says] it's about attitude and staying active and has a new book to prove it." - NPR Weekend Edition"Song-and-dance man Van Dyke relishes his approaching 90th birthday and shares some tips for readers on reaching and enjoying that venerable age. This is determinedly upbeat stuff." - Kirkus"Multitalented [Dick Van Dyke] shares his vast store of knowledge in a memoir that offers tips and truths about [how to] make living an achievement." - The Sacramento BeePRAISE FOR MY LUCKY LIFE IN AND OUT OF SHOW BUSINESS"In my opinion, 'Luck' has little to do with Dick Van Dyke's life. It is, rather, his innate kindness and talent that have had an extraordinary effect in shaping the man. And what a fascinating self-portrait he's given us in this book." - Mary Tyler Moore"Van Dyke tells a wonderful story about himself and his times. And-in an often surprisingly relevant manner-our times. We've always liked the performer-it's hard not to like Dick Van Dyke-but this will will make you admire him." - Playbill

Die Farbe Weiss spielt in der japanischen Kultur im Allgemeinen wie auch im Werk des Designers Kenya Hara eine besondere Rolle. In seinem neuen Buch «100 Whites», der Fortsetzung seines vorangegangenen Bandes «Weiss», beschreibt Hara einhundert charakteristische Beispiele für Weiss, wie etwa Schnee, Reis und Wachs. Er legt dar, wie er mit den verschiedenen Erscheinungen von Weiss experimentiert und was sie für seinen Arbeitsprozess bedeuten und ergründet so das Wesen der Farbe, die für Hara Einfachheit und Subtilität symbolisiert. Auf dieser Grundlage untersucht Hara nicht nur die Bedeutung der Farbe für das Design, sondern auch ihre Bedeutung als Philosophie.
