If you tell me Elvis' voice by the late 60s and through the 70s isn't in its best shape ever, I'll put up a fight. Lol. All kidding aside, I can't stand 70s Elvis. Each song he sounds so flawless. Impossible to pick an all time favorite. 💖 ✨ 🥹

Die Liebe zum Volk – und zu den FrauenCOMPACT+ 

Compact:»Das exzessive Leben von Maigret-Vater Georges Simenon. Georges Simenon erfand Kommissar Maigret – und einen Schreibstil von karger Schönheit, der mit sehr wenigen Worten die feinsten Nuancen ausdrückt. Er verachtete die Eliten und fühlte sich wohl bei den einfachen Leuten – ihren Sorgen, Leidenschaften und Exzessen. _ von Alexander Schleyer «Célita sah die Neue als [...] Der Beitrag Die Liebe zum Volk – und zu den FrauenCOMPACT+  erschien zuerst auf COMPACT. http://dlvr.it/T4SRFD «

'...It was an evening that began with a drum beat and ended with a crescendo of applause for the Virtuosos Awards at Santa Barbara International Film Festival, a perennial favorite event that recognizes a number of breakthrough performances from the previous year’s films.

This year’s honorees — interviewed by Dave Karger for the 14th consecutive year (he’s also the host of Turner Classic Movies) — included America Ferrera (Barbie), Lily Gladstone (The Killers of Flower Moon), Greta Lee (Past Lives), Charles Melton (May December), Da’Vine Joy Randolph (The Holdovers), and Andrew Scott (All of Us Strangers), as well as two actors who sent in video greetings because they were on set and couldn’t get away: Danielle Brooks (The Color Purple) and Colman Domingo (Rustin & The Color Purple)...

Andrew Scott, who was so fabulous as the sexy priest in Fleabag, described last year’s All Of Us Strangers as “film that is so incredibly compassionate,” and although it’s on the heavy side, “you always have to be ready in a so-called sad movie to the let the light in.”...'

TEMPLARIOS

Sólo en dorado curso al par del resto, nuestra cohorte huyó siempre la turba. Somos Rosa: encendida garzonía; somos Cruz: arte de sufrir soberbio.

De vía anónima en la adusta calma manejamos la lanza y negro torno. Blandimos fuego que al vil tiempo aterra, del vulgo azote y velador del solio.

No observamos usanzas ni recreos de tantos que nos miran recelosos, y se espantan si el odio no domeña lo que extravía un amoroso oraje.

Cuanto botín nos rinde el filo y la honda pródigas manos libran sin cuidado, y quienes fallo asolador escupen ante un muchacho se hincan de rodillas.

El ojo radïoso y suelto rizo que al señor andrajoso delataran, celamos, castos, a insolente chusma que dio primero lustre a nuestra sombra.

Igual que en seno extraño nos gestamos, nuestra posteridad es de otra cepa... jamás caduca, flaca ni dispersa la llama inveterada en sí mestiza.

Y cada hecho de acero y fatal lance, lo cumple sólo aquél de nuestras filas... Se nos emplaza con confuso enojo, luego —¡maldita hechura!— nos lapidan.

Y cuando la Nutricia en su gran ira desarrimada asoma a nuestra fuente clamando yerta y lacia en vasta noche: puede sólo quien firme la hostigó,

rindió y jamás se avino con sus leyes, asir sus manos, aferrar sus greñas, para que cumpla su obra de buen grado: mudar la carne en dios, el dios en carne.

TEMPLER

Wir eins mit allen nur in goldnem laufe – Undenkbar lang schied unsre schar der haufe · Wir Rose: innre jugendliche brunst Wir Kreuz: der stolz ertragnen leiden kunst.

Auf unbenamter bahn in karger stille Drehn wir den speer und drehn die dunkle spille. In feiger zeit schreckt unsrer waffen loh’n · Wir geisseln volk und schlagen lärm am tron.

Wir folgen nicht den sitten und den spielen Der andren die voll argwohn nach uns schielen Und grauen wenn ihr hass nicht übermannt Was unser wilder sturm der liebe bannt.

Was uns als beute fiel von schwert und schleuder Rinnt achtlos aus den händen der vergeuder Und deren wut verheerend urteil spie Vor einem kinde sinken sie ins knie.

Der augen sprühen und die freie locke Die einst den herrn verriet im bettelrocke Verschleiern wir dem dreisten schwarm verschämt Der unsre schatten erst mit glanz verbrämt.

Wie wir gediehn im schoosse fremder amme: Ist unser nachwuchs nie aus unsrem stamme – Nie alternd nie entkräftet nie versprengt Da ungeborne glut in ihm sich mengt.

Und jede eherne tat und nötige wende: Nur unser-einer ist der sie vollende – Zu der man uns in arger wirrsal ruft Und dann uns steinigt: fluch dem was ihr schuf’t!

Und wenn die grosse Nährerin im zorne Nicht mehr sich mischend neigt am untern borne · In einer weltnacht starr und müde pocht: So kann nur einer der sie stets befocht

Und zwang und nie verfuhr nach ihrem rechte Die hand ihr pressen · packen ihre flechte · Dass sie ihr werk willfährig wieder treibt: Den leib vergottet und den gott verleibt.
