Краткое содержание

In 19th century Victorian England, Mrs. Isabella Beeton produced what became an essential book for housewives of the day. She was married at a relatively young age to Sam Beeton, a publisher of books and magazines on a variety of subjects. Not someone to sit at home in the traditional role of a housewife, Mrs. Beeton started work in her husband's business, initially as an editor correcting English but then writing some of the columns herself. It as at this point that she developed an idea for a cookbook and Mrs. Beeton's Book of Household Management was born. Her life was not an easy one however. The publishing business went bankrupt, she lost two children at a young age and had several miscarriages. She died at the age of 28.

На грани безумия
Вольная экранизация повести Роберта Луиса Стивенсона «Доктор Джекилл и мистер Хайд». Режиссер, как почти все его предшественники, обращавшиеся к известной книге Стивенсона, поручил одному и тому же актеру двойную главную роль — и Энтони Перкинс сыграл то, что от него требовалось. Самое любопытное, пожалуй, то, что патологическим извращенцем в его интерпретации стал не только Джек Хайд, убийца проституток, но и доктор Генри Джекилл, вполне респектабельный гражданин общества.
