Today is the 960th anniversary of the Battle of Hastings, which seems a good excuse to enjoy this again...

We say goodbye to our dear friend, Oscar-winning actress Eva Marie Saint.
One of the last surviving stars of Hollywood’s Golden Age, we are grateful for her contributions to cinema and the time she spent with us over the years.
Our thoughts are with her loved ones.

Monastero di San Benedetto Subiaco. Il vero volto di San Francesco 3 anni prima della morte 1223/1224 senza stimmate e aureola. Ritratto eseguito sicuramente da un monaco nel periodo in cui San Francesco soggiornò nel monastero. Due immagini

Beloved Harpo Marx d otd 1964. He still brings us such joy; what a face - the wonderfully expressive eyes, impish grin, the veering between ecstatic happiness and outraged indignation. And so lovely to hear his voice on the recently rediscovered recording of Peter and the Wolf!

Shostakovich b otd 120 years ago! What a composer. He certainly gave musical voice to those suffering from oppression- but there's so much more to his music than that! His soaring imagination, tenderness, humour - and control of forms (including fugues, of course). A true master.
