Lawrence of Arabia dominated the 1963 Academy Awards. It was also voted as "the best British film of all time" by leading filmmakers. It reached the top of the box office and managed a close 2nd overall for the year. Steven Spielberg stated it was his favorite film and the film that inspired him to becoming a film maker. This is just to say it was an important film with a lot of unusual pieces to reconcile. E.g. before Alec Gui...
Homer as metaphorically blind Wavelength.ai says: There are literary readings and discussions on the question of whether Homer (the poet) was blind or if there is metaphorical significance to the legend of Homer himself. Some scholars believe that Homer and his blindness are legendary due to the lack of information about his life. You can find more information in the following sources: 1.

Some secrets are difficult to see passively, but easy to see as a few "coincidences" are lined up.

Penelope fem. proper name, name of the faithful wife in the "Odyssey," from Greek Pēnelopē, Pēnelopeia, which is perhaps related to pēne "thread on the bobbin," from pēnos "web," cognate with Latin pannus "cloth garment" (see pane (n.)). But Beekes suggests rather a connection with pēnelops "duck or wild goose with colored neck." Used in English as the type of the virtuous wife (1580) as it was in Latin.From etymonline.comrelatedly:pane (n.)mid-13c., "garment, cloak, mantle; a part of a ga...

Black Mirror is an anthology, but it’s never shied away from connecting its stories together. From Season 1 through Netflix’s interactive Bandersnatch, each self-contained tale always seems to tie into a handful of others. There was even a whole episode, "Black Museum," chock full of "artifacts" from other episodes. Season 6 is no different. In fact, this season might have more Easter Eggs than any other, including one that harkens all the way back to the very first episode. Streamberry Is Fu...
This article contains light spoilers for Better Call Saul season 6. One of the most artistic scenes in either Better Call Saul or its parent show, Breaking Bad, is the cold open to the sixth season premiere episode. The audience is taken through Saul Goodman’s house in a first person point of view camera angle. A variety of items belonging to Saul throughout his adult life that have been previously seen in the two shows reappear here. From shoes Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) wore when walkin...

The Nun (2018) takes the mysterious demon disguised as a nun from the shadows of The Conjuring 2 (2016), Annabelle: Creation (2017), and Annabelle Comes Home (2019) and explores its blood-soaked roots at The Cârța Monastery in Romania. The Conjuring Universe is rich with Easter Eggs whose significance is often revealed with each new installment. With that in mind, as we prepare for The Nun 2 (2023), let’s look at the Easter Eggs and tie-ins for The Nun (spoilers ahead). Frenchie Is Mau...

Four score and seven years ago (less seventy-six years) I started this blog. That makes this Once Upon a Screen’s eleventh anniversary. Who’d ‘a thunk it? While an anniversary is cause for celebration, I admit to feeling a bit guilty this year given I have barely blogged. It has been a tough one, but I am happy Once Upon a Screen is still here for me to movie vent. As is tradition on this blog, I celebrate anniversaries with tributes to the number. Let’s look at the ...
One of the challenges in reading the Book of Revelation is that it is very theologically dense in the way it presents its ideas. There are several reasons for this:Its dense metaphorical language (commonly called its ‘symbolism’) carries theological weight. For example, the compressed phrase ‘a lamb, looking as though it had been slain, standing…’ (Rev 5.6) is only four words in Greek ἀρνίον ἑστηκὸς ὡς ἐσφαγμένον yet it encapsulates the idea of Jesus as crucified and risen, conquering ...
One area that is not usually counted among the sciences is cryptography, lying as it does, in this day and age, between, logic, mathematics, and informatics. In earlier times it is perhaps best viewed as a part of logic. Perhaps surprisingly, cryptography underwent a major development during the Renaissance provoked by an earlier development in the hands of Islamicate scholars.Cryptography means literally hidden writing, coming from the Greek kryptos meaning hidden and graphiameaning write, e...
Lovecraft derived his pseudonym ‘Lewis Theobald Jr.’, later ‘Grandpa Theobald’ and variants, from the pioneering but much put-upon Shakespeare scholar Lewis Theobald (1688-1744). I’ve now discovered a curious thing relating to this choice. The discovery occurred this way. I was looking at the early medieval talking-fox cycle Reynard the Fox as a source for Tolkien. Part of the evidence is found in one early version of Tolkien’s "The Tale of Tinuviel", in which the hero is enslaved by th...
The Charters in the Margin of Matthew Paris’s Chronica Maiora By Meghan WoolleyMatthew Paris’s Chronica maiora is famous for its illustrations: maps of Great Britain, the murder of an archbishop, and an elephant gifted to England’s King Henry III. But as I sat in the archive, reading Matthew’s own copy of the Chronica, something else caught my eye: small charters drawn in the margins, reproduced in meticulous detail down to their colorful seals.It’s common for English chronicles to include ma...
