They just refuse to grow up
Article Abstract:
Rock group The Fall first began performing and recording in 1976, but its music still has great immediacy and power. The music is strongly defined by the fact that the group's members come from Manchester, England, and seems to bring this city to life. It combines the ugly and the exotic, and is often arrogant and defiant. Singer-songwriter Mark E. Smith's voice is extremely raw, but he makes no apologies for this. The lyrics contain a vast array of images and social commentary.

A man of good character
Article Abstract:
JT Walsh, who died recently, was the most talented character actor in modern cinema. He established close links with playwright David Mamet early in his career, and was to become one of Mamet's group of favoured actors. He used his familiarity to his advantage, and never placed himself in danger of having his creativity restricted by typecasting. His work mainly explores the persona of the predatory middle-aged male who is ultimately frustrated.
