Like his father and grandfather before him, he was always billed onscreen as simply ‘King Baggot’. The first King Baggot (1879-1948) was at one time Hollywood’s most popular star, known in his heyday as ‘King of the Movies’ ,’The Most Photographed Man in the World’ and “More Famous Than the Man in...

If Helen Of Troy was the figure that launched a thousand ships, then Upstream Color is the film that launched an immeasurable number of forays into Google following its screening at the 2013 Edinburgh International Film Festival. Just what is the meaning of this seemingly impenetrable but hypnotic movie that bears the power to both mesmerise and alienate in equal measure? It's ostensibly about the circle of life, but don't expect Elton John to appear and belt out a certain song from The Lion King.
Amy Seimetz delivers a terrific turn as office worker Kris, who is forcibly abducted by a crook and implanted with a worm-like parasite that affects her behaviour. While she jots down the text of Thoreau's 'Walden' in a zombie-like trance, her bank funds are depleted and she's soon strapped to...

In Virgil's epic The Aeneid, Lavinia of Latium is a minor character. She doesn't even show up until the last six books of the poem, and when she does arrive, it's to serve as a sub-par Helen Of Troy, driving men to battle simply by what she represents. Aeneas needs to marry her to secure his position in a strange country, while Turnus, a local king, isn't willing to step aside for a group of foreigners. The epic ends with Aeneas slaying Turnus in a rage after Turnus surrenders to him. There's no mention of the wedding that must've followed, the life Lavinia would've had with the stranger who basically conquered her country in pursuit of her, or what she felt about any of it. Which isn't Virgil's problem—it's a long poem, but there's a lot of ground to cover, and the feelings of one teenage pawn are easy.
