《《Requiem (Short 1995)》》Storyline
N.Behrman was based on Viertel""s own original screen story (co-authored with Margaret P.LeVino).History is partially rewritten in the tale of sacrificial love, duty, and strength.Taglines advertising the film proclaimed:"A 17th century maiden who loved with a 20th century madness""She was crowned King of Sweden.An owl""s huge eyes frighten her.Flying bats scare her.Craggy trees seem to reach out and pull at her, snagging her clothes.She falls into a dark pit and a dark body of water, where the shapes of fallen logs change into alligators.It metaphorically repeats the Garden of Eden biblical fable.In the plot, a cruelly manipulative temptress [the famed Lady Eve] snags a clueless, virginal Adam in a sexually-dangerous ""jungle"" environment.He is popular with the neighbor kids because he gives them American bubble-gum.One of his "very good friends in Paris" introduces himself in voice over:Adam Cook is my name.I""m a concert pianist.That""s a pretentious way of saying I""m unemployed at the moment.With sardonic wit and a droll, morose sense of humor, aspiring American concert pianist Adam Cook (Oscar Levant) explains hat he has won his eighth scholarship/fellowship to study abroad, is homesick and feels like "the world""s oldest child prodigy.The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)d.Peter Jackson, 200 minutesFilm Plot SummaryThe final film in the trilogy began with a backstory-flashback of how Smeagol (Andy Serkis) became the spindly Gollum, when he murdered (by strangulation) his fishing buddy - cousin and river Hobbit Deagol (Thomas Robins), who had discovered the Ring in mud at the bottom of a river; Smeagol claimed it was his birthday present; thereafter, he degenerated physically and mentally into a raw-fish eating creature called Gollum (because of the sound he made when swallowing).
