Dr Janina Ramirez unlocks the secrets of illuminated manuscripts that were custom-made for kings and explores the medieval world they reveal. Part 1: Ruling by the Book Janina begins her journey with the first Anglo-Saxon rulers to create a united England, encountering books in the British Library's Royal manuscripts collection which are over a thousand years old and a royal family tree which is five metres long. Janina finds out about a king who had a reputation for chasing nuns and reads a book created as a wedding gift for a ten-year-old prince. She roams from Westminster Abbey to other ancient English spiritual sites such as Winchester, St Albans and Malmesbury, and sees for herself how animal skins can be transformed into the finest vellum. Part 2: What a King Should Know Janina shows how medieval manuscripts gave power to the king and united the kingdom in an age of plague, warfare and rebellion, discovers that Edward III used the manuscripts he read as a boy to prepare him for his great victory at the battle of Crecy and reveals how a vigorous new national identity bloomed during the 100 Years War with France. In the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection Dr Ramirez finds out that magnificent manuscripts like the Bedford Hours, taken as war booty from the French royal family, were adapted for the education of English princes. She also explores how knowledge spread through a new form of book - the encyclopaedia. Part 3: Libraries Gave Us Power The story of the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection reaches its end with the last great flowering of illumination, in the magnificent courts of the Tudors. She investigates astrological texts created for Henry VII, and unwraps his will - still in its original, extravagantly-decorated velvet and gold cover. She hears music written for Henry VIII, which went unperformed for centuries| and reads love notes between the king and Anne Boleyn, written in the margins of a prayer book. Nina also visits Bruges, the source of many of the greatest manuscripts, where this medieval art form collided with the artistic innovations of the Renaissance. （转自mvgroup论坛）。A quartet of murderous psychopaths break out of a mental hospital during a power blackout and lay siege to their doctor’s house.。清晨，克拉丽斯打点好一切，带上丈夫的打火机离开了家。身在旅程，克拉丽斯的心仍牵挂着家中的一切。她听女儿的钢琴曲，同远方的家人隔空交谈。在儿女眼里，克拉丽斯从此再没有回家。在克拉丽斯看来，她只是换个地方静静守望，看着一双儿女长大成人……随着剧情推进，先前的叙事裂隙被弥合，克拉丽斯出走的真相浮现。故事的结局将完全颠覆观众对这位妻子和母亲的想象。 《抱紧我》改编自舞台剧《我从远方回来》，为《潜水钟与蝴蝶》主演、凯撒奖影帝、戛纳最佳导演马修·阿马立克执导的第六部长片。本片利用交叉剪辑制造了颇具误导性的故事线，通过跟随一位妻子和母亲内心与外在的双重旅途，道出她对家人再难追回的爱与思念。哀而不伤，极为动人。电影主演，曾出演《束胸》《巴赫曼：沙漠之旅》的卢森堡演员薇姬·克里普斯凭借此片提名第47届法国凯撒电影奖影后，本片提名当届凯撒奖最佳改编剧本。。
