Happy birthday Jon Vickers

[my-dear-swan]

Discussion with my friends

Me: (post a picture of young Max Lorenz) Look! This Tristan looks so cute! With two big watery eyes.

My friends: OHHHHHHHHH––!

Me: (post a picture of Kristen Flagstad): What an elegant lady! She must be the queen of elves.

My friends: Exactly.

Me: (post a video of Franco Corelli): Awwwww––the Prince Charming of opera!

My friends: Oh man I can't resist that.

Actually most of they're not so familiar with operas, but good looks are popular everywhere.I hope they will have time to appreciate those beautiful voices.

I also hope no one will say something like "He sang like a Beagle" under videos of Jon Vickers. We Chinese Wagnerians have gotten a nickname for him: Mr. Brush, which means he had a rather rough voice. At first it was a negative nickname, but, now it contains no offense, we love his unique voice and outstanding interpretation after all.

Another pitch for a live-action “Resident Evil” movie:

1) STORY

In Raccoon City, South Dakota, two teams of S.T.A.R.S. units (basically SWAT teams) are dispatched to the long-abandoned Spencer Mansion in the Arklay Mountains. A group of federal prisoners who were being transported to another facility have gotten free. The prisoners managed to take refuge inside the mansion and are holding the transport crew as their hostages.

The night takes a dark, bizarre turn when both the prisoners and the STARS officers realize that there’s something else in the woods and inside the mansion. Something…unnatural. When both sides are attacked by monsters, the survivors are forced to work together in order to escape with their lives.

2) ADDITIONAL PLOT DETAILS

a) one of the escaped inmates is Billy Coen, who is the only one of his group to survive the movie

b) a major source of tension in the movie is the STARS officers and the inmates needing to put aside their differences and work as a team. This is also to heighten the shock to non-Resident Evil viewers that STARS commander Albert Wesker is a traitor since the audience will keep expecting the prisoners to betray the team.

c) Brad Vickers is rewritten to be one of the transport crew that the prisoners took hostage. His storyline is also changed in which he has to be kept alive since he’s the only one who knows how to use a helicopter, which is important since the group finds an abandoned one while exploring the facility.

d) The story is only loosely based on RE0 and RE1. Just to get an idea of what is kept in the main story, some of the main story beats are that Rebecca Chambers is the first STARS officer to recognize that Billy Coen is a good guy, Barry Burton is being manipulated by Wesker, Jill and Chris are the protagonists, everything culminates in a showdown with the Tyrant, and the movie ends with Brad flying all the survivors away from the area.

e) for those who played House of Ashes, think of Rebecca and Billy’s relationship as being similar to Jason and Salim.

f) while I can’t give an exact body count, I’d imagine that all the STARS officers, escaped prisoners, and transport crew characters not named Chris, Jill, Barry, Rebecca, Billy, and Brad end up dying. Albert Wesker is also “killed”, but we all know he survived off-screen.

g) due to how the story unfolds, Billy Coen is also flown to safety by Brad at the end, which ends up playing a role in how the sequel starts

3) CAST/CHARACTERS (not meant to be a complete list)

a) Taron Egerton as Chris Redfield (STARS officer who was about to go on vacation with his sister, Claire)

b) Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Jill Valentine (STARS officer who deeply opposes Umbrella’s prescribe in Raccoon City)

c) Kiernan Shipka as Rebecca Chambers (STARS officer who is the youngest of the team and the one to befriend Billy Coen)

d) David Harbour as Barry Burton (STARS officer who is a veteran about to retire)

e) Jon Bernthal as Billy Coen (disgraced US marine and one of the escaped inmates)

f) Iain de Caestecker as Brad Vickers (one of the prison guards taken hostage by the prisoners, later revealed to be a licensed pilot)

g) Cillian Murphy as Albert Wesker (leader of the STARS units, later revealed to be a double agent for Umbrella)

h) Florence Pugh makes a cameo appearance as Claire Redfield. She only appears at the start when she’s talking to Chris about vacation plans, and in a post-credits scene in which Claire arrives in Raccoon City several weeks after the events of the movie.

Opera on YouTube

I've shared links to complete opera performances before, but I love to share them, so I thought I'd make a few masterposts.

These list are by no means the only complete filmed performances of these operas on YouTube, but I decided that ten links for each opera was enough for now.

By the way, some of the subtitles are just a part of the video, while others require you to click CC to see them.

stark family fancast / ned stark edition

1.) Charlie Vickers in his role as ‘Halbrand’ in the show, Rings of Power. Even though Sean Bean’s age wasn’t accurate to Ned, i can’t help but compare and i feel like Charlie IS his younger Ned

2.) Alexander Dreymon in his role of Uhtred in the Last Kingdom.

What i love about this fancast besides my usual spiel of matching the character description is that in the first season, Uhtred marries a beautiful redhead for duty’s sake and has a son with her, sound familiar?

3.) Orlando Bloom in his role as Balian in the film, Kingdom of Heaven. He has northern features and I think he really portrays the feeling of a 19 year old Ned fresh off having lost his father and brother and essentially his sister and now he’s going off to war . and Orlando and Kit look so similar especially when they’re brooding.

4.) Viggo Mortenson in his role as Aragon in LOTR would fit great for an older ned at the start of the book series or even during the greyjoy rebellion

5.) François Arnaud in his role of Cesare in the show, The Borgias. He has the stark look and hey, jon had to get his broodiness and great hair from somewhere

6.) Aiden Turner is his role as Ross Aiden in the show, Poldark is one of my favorites for Ned because his co star in the show, Eleanor Tomlinson playing Demelza is a great fancast for my fave, Catelyn

I'm actually really excited about House of the Dragon. Just saw the trailer and the production values look great. I'm really looking forward to seeing the costume design. I know I'm in the minority but I really liked Michele Clapton's design for GoT - she wasn't afraid to experiment because I think simply doing period costume for a fantasy show is an immense failure of imagination. So I hope that while the story of HotU is inspired by English medieval history, the costume design hopefully won't just copy medieval fashion but exploit that this is a fantasy show, not a period show.

I think it would be amazing if someone would make a historical sit-com about the woes of ancient Mesopotamian bureaucracy. (And throw in Ea-Nasir for good measure).

I would like RoP to give us a scene where Galadriel tries to explain to Celeborn that she had an emotional affair with Sauron while he was away.

Mr. Jon Vincent was born Jeffrey James Vickers on December 17, 1962, in New Orleans, Louisiana. 

He grew up in Baton Rouge, where he discovered his athletic talent, especially for baseball. 

At 20, an interview with the Kansas City Royals seemed like his chance for a professional athletic career, but his penchant for partying undid him at the tryouts. 

He never played baseball again. 

Instead. he drifted to Houston, where he discovered his lifelong athletic passion, bodybuilding. 

Two years later, he moved to California.  

In Los Angeles, escort work led to the adult film career that would make Mr. Vincent famous.  

There was a memorial service last Friday, May 5, in New York City. On Tuesday, May 9, there was a second memorial service in Baton Rouge. 

Mr. Vincent was buried in Baton Rouge in the family mausoleum.

Carmen (Bizet) - Ribeirão Preto/SP, novembro/2023

Ópera completa com legenda em português: link.

Carmen (1875) está entre as óperas mais populares. Todavia, como muitas vezes acontece, não foi reconhecida de imediato como uma obra-prima: na estreia, seu despudor chocou o público conservador da Opéra-Comique. Mas logo seduziria com o encanto de suas melodias, o “exotismo” espanhol da partitura e a força dos personagens. É considerada uma opéra comique por ter diálogos falados. O rico colorido dos coros e da orquestração desempenha papel central.

Com Carmen, Bizet esperava responder aos críticos que o acusavam de ser complicado e obscuro. “Bem, dessa vez então compus uma obra que é toda clareza e vivacidade, cheia de cores e melodias”, observou.

“Como músico, posso dizer que se acabássemos com o adultério, o fanatismo, o crime, o mal e o sobrenatural não teríamos mais como escrever uma única nota.” - Georges Bizet (1838-1875)
