  • 106 draw the first blood

    "выпустить первую кровь", нанести первый удар; см. тж. draw blood

    The first blood was drawn by Charles who by packing the Bench seemed to have subjected the Common Law courts themselves to prerogative ideas. But the last word was to lie with the Long Parliament. (G. M. Trevelyan, ‘History of England’, book IV, ch. I) — Первый удар в этой борьбе был нанесён Карлом, который заполнил суды сторонниками королевского абсолютизма, чем, видимо, и обеспечил приоритет королевской власти над судами. Однако последнее слово было за Долгим парламентом.

       Ford Beebe es, sin duda, uno de los reyes de los seriales.

  • 109 Claxton, William F.

    1914-1996
       Uno de los directores emblematicos de la serie televisiva Bonanza, Claxton empezo, como tantos otros, como montador, antes de dedicarse a la realizacion. Su universo narrativo, sin duda, es el western, que no maneja lo bien que seria de desear, probablemente lastrado por su amplia e impersonal experiencia televisiva. Trabajo preferentemente para Fox y para su productora subsidiaria, Regal Films.

  • 110 Friedlander, Louis

    1901-1962 (o Lew Landers)
       Louis Friedlander, o Lew Landers, es un caso notable de fecundidad filmica. Mas de 150 peliculas lo contemplan entre 1934 y 1962, ano de su muerte.
       Dirigio dramas, peliculas de aventuras, comedias, peliculas belicas y de ciencia-ficcion, de ambiente criminal y, por supuesto, westerns. Un buen punado de ellos, sobre todo filmes de serie y un par de seriales. Estamos ante un director competente que hizo todo lo que se podia hacer con el material que se ponia en sus manos. Son justamente famosas El cuervo (The Raven, 1935), con Boris Karloff, basada en el relato de Edgar Allan Poe, Blind Alibi (1938), de ambiente opresivo, y el western Bad Lands, donde hace gala de un uso preciso de los primeros planos.

       B.B. Ray, Franklyn Shamray, Ray Bernard, Raymond Samuels y Raymond K. Johnson son seudonimos utilizados por este prolifico director, que fue tambien productor, guionista y hasta director de fotografia en alguna ocasion; Bernard B. Ray es uno de los fun dadores de Re liable Pictures, para quien dirigio un buen punado de peliculas y, en particular, un buen punado de westerns. En su filmografia aparecen Jack Perrin, Tom Tyler, Bob Custer, Rex Lease, Addison o Jack Randall, Fred Scott, es decir, algunos de los mas importantes heroes del western de los anos 30. Las peliculas de Ray no son hermosas ni importantes, pero tampoco destacan negativamente de sus hermanas de genero, con los mismos actores, dirigidas por otros mu chos realizadores intercambiables con el.

  • 113 Sturges, John

    1911-1992
       Nacido en Oak Pak, Illinois, pasa su juventud en la sala de montaje de RKO. Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial colabora en la realizacion de documentales de propaganda y es al terminar esta cuando, contratado por Columbia, tiene la oportunidad de dirigir su primer largometraje en 1946, The Man Who Dared. En 1949 pasa a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, donde sus posibilidades de abordar proyectos mas ambiciosos aumentan. Es precisamente en los anos 50 cuando Sturges alcanza un importante prestigio como director de westerns y filmes de accion. John Sturges se muestra siempre como un realizador enormemente eficaz. Lo habia sido en sus comienzos, cuando bregaba con la dificil y formativa serie B, y lo fue mas tarde, cuando se le encomendaron proyectos mas ambiciosos y costosos. Ejemplo tipico de cineasta de genero, cuenta en su haber con un buen punado de magnificas peliculas entre las que se encuentran algunos westerns. Debo confesar una especial predileccion por La gran evasion (The Great Escape, 1963), con un reparto casi exclusivamente masculino que le otorgo, en lo sucesivo, la fama de director de hombres, y, ya dentro del western, por Fort Bravo y Duelo de titanes. En esta ultima pelicula revisa de nuevo la historia, cercana al mito, de Wyatt Earp y el celebre duelo en O.K. Corral que, entre otros, habia tratado John Ford en Pasion de los fuertes (My Darling Clementine, 1946). Sturges aborda el asunto en dos ocasiones, en la citada Duelo de titanes y, posteriormente, en La hora de las pistolas, una vi sion un tanto crepuscular del tema. Pero este filme corresponde ya a la ultima etapa creativa de Sturges, que podemos iniciar inmediatamente despues de La gran evasion, en la que recibio no pocas criticas ne gativas debido a cierto amaneramiento en la puesta en escena, que contrastaba con el vigor nada vacilante que caracterizo sus anos de plenitud.

    [br]
    b. 4 April 1789 Liverpool, England
    d. 28 March 1869 Liverpool, England
    [br]
    English railway administrator and inventor.
    [br]
    Booth followed his father as a Liverpool corn merchant but had great mechanical aptitude. In 1824 he joined the committee for the proposed Liverpool \& Manchester Railway (L \& MR) and after the company obtained its Act of Parliament in 1826 he was appointed Treasurer.
    In 1829 the L \& MR announced a prize competition, the Rainhill Trials, for an improved steam locomotive: Booth, realizing that the power of a locomotive depended largely upon its capacity to raise steam, had the idea that this could be maximized by passing burning gases from the fire through the boiler in many small tubes to increase the heating surface, rather than in one large one, as was then the practice. He was apparently unaware of work on this type of boiler even then being done by Marc Seguin, and the 1791 American patent by John Stevens. Booth discussed his idea with George Stephenson, and a boiler of this type was incorporated into the locomotive Rocket, which was built by Robert Stephenson and entered in the Trials by Booth and the two Stephensons in partnership. The boiler enabled Rocket to do all that was required in the trials, and far more: it became the prototype for all subsequent conventional locomotive boilers.
    After the L \& MR opened in 1830, Booth as Treasurer became in effect the general superintendent and was later General Manager. He invented screw couplings for use with sprung buffers. When the L \& MR was absorbed by the Grand Junction Railway in 1845 he became Secretary of the latter, and when, later the same year, that in turn amalgamated with the London \& Birmingham Railway (L \& BR) to form the London \& North Western Railway (L \& NWR), he became joint Secretary with Richard Creed from the L \& BR.
    Earlier, completion in 1838 of the railway from London to Liverpool had brought problems with regard to local times. Towns then kept their own time according to their longitude: Birmingham time, for instance, was 7¼ minutes later than London time. This caused difficulties in railway operation, so Booth prepared a petition to Parliament on behalf of the L \& MR that London time should be used throughout the country, and in 1847 the L \& NWR, with other principal railways and the Post Office, adopted Greenwich time. It was only in 1880, however, that the arrangement was made law by Act of Parliament.

  • 120 Brindley, James

    SUBJECT AREA: Canals
    [br]
    b. 1716 Tunstead, Derbyshire, England
    d. 27 September 1772 Turnhurst, Staffordshire, England
    [br]
    English canal engineer.
    [br]
    Born in a remote area and with no material advantages, Brindley followed casual rural labouring occupations until 1733, when he became apprenticed to Abraham Bennett of Macclesfield, a wheelwright and millwright. Though lacking basic education in reading and writing, he demonstrated his ability, partly through his photographic memory, to solve practical problems. This established his reputation, and after Bennett's death in 1742 he set up his own business at Leek as a millwright. His skill led to an invitation to solve the problem of mine drainage at Wet Earth Colliery, Clifton, near Manchester. He tunnelled 600 ft (183 m) through rock to provide a leat for driving a water-powered pump.
    Following work done on a pump on Earl Gower's estate at Trentham, Brindley's name was suggested as the engineer for the proposed canal for which the Duke of Bridge water (Francis Egerton) had obtained an Act in 1759. The Earl and the Duke were brothers-in-law, and the agents for the two estates were, in turn, the Gilbert brothers. The canal, later known as the Bridgewater Canal, was to be constructed to carry coal from the Duke's mines at Worsley into Manchester. Brindley advised on the details of its construction and recommended that it be carried across the river Irwell at Barton by means of an aqueduct. His proposals were accepted, and under his supervision the canal was constructed on a single level and opened in 1761. Brindley had also surveyed for Earl Gower a canal from the Potteries to Liverpool to carry pottery for export, and the signal success of the Bridgewater Canal ensured that the Trent and Mersey Canal would also be built. These undertakings were the start of Brindley's career as a canal engineer, and it was largely from his concepts that the canal system of the Midlands developed, following the natural contours rather than making cuttings and constructing large embankments. His canals are thus winding navigations unlike the later straight waterways, which were much easier to traverse. He also adopted the 7 ft (2.13 m) wide lock as a ruling dimension for all engineering features. For cheapness, he formed his canal tunnels without a towpath, which led to the notorious practice of legging the boats through the tunnels.
    Brindley surveyed a large number of projects and such was his reputation that virtually every proposal was submitted to him for his opinion. Included among these projects were the Staffordshire and Worcestershire, the Rochdale, the Birmingham network, the Droitwich, the Coventry and the Oxford canals. Although he was nominally in charge of each contract, much of the work was carried out by his assistants while he rushed from one undertaking to another to ensure that his orders were being carried out. He was nearly 50 when he married Anne Henshall, whose brother was also a canal engineer. His fees and salaries had made him very wealthy. He died in 1772 from a chill sustained when carrying out a survey of the Caldon Canal.
