In 1986, more people watched “The Mystery of Al Capone’s Vault” than the Superbowl. More people watched the two-hour live event than David Frost’s interview with Richard Nixon. Both events were high-wire, high-reward, high-disaster broadcasts. Geraldo Rivera had been fired from ABC after fifteen years and the live broadcast from Chicago of Al Capone’s vault was to be his comeback. On April 21, 1986, at nine fifteen Eastern, Geraldo gave the signal at the midpoint of the show to blow open the subterranean vault with dynamite and reveal to the world the great secrets of Al Capone...

In this time between worlds and time between stories, we stand poised between a potential dystopia and an unimaginably beautiful future. Only a new Story of Value as a context for our diversity can change the vector of history towards a possible utopia. Movies are often the channel through which the voice of culture discloses itself. Hidden in the public texts of culture is a movement towards a new human and a new humanity. Understanding the hidden text of She—woven into the fabric of our public stories—is a key part of this new Story of Value.

Grand spécialiste de l'œuvre de J.R.R Tolkien, Ilan Ferry nous entraîne dans les entrailles de ce chef-d'œuvre pour révéler les références mythologiques qui abondent au fil des pages. Bien sûr, les liens entre les Elfes, les Orques, les Hobbits et toutes les autres créatures merveilleuses qui peuplent la Terre du Milieu avec les mythologies nordiques sont presque évidents. Mais à quoi font référence exactement les Mages Blancs et le terrible Sauron ? Pourquoi J.R.R Tolkien a-t-il imaginé son alphabet elfique et runique ?

Que serait un grand film sans son grand méchant ? Un mauvais film selon Jérémie Gallen, créateur de la chaîne YouTube Va te faire suivre. Si ces méchants nous fascinent autant, c'est peut-être parce qu'ils sont l'incarnation d'une partie de notre personnalité. La part la plus sombre et, par voie de conséquence, le symbole de notre humanité la plus imparfaite. Voldemort, Dark Vador, la Reine-sorcière… ne sont-ils pas les vraies stars de Harry Potter, Star Wars, ou Blanche-Neige et les Sept Nains ? Aussi effrayants soient-ils, ils suscitent notre empathie et font briller les héros de ces sagas !

¿Qué tienen ellas para dar de comer de su mano a auténticas fieras humanas? ¿Con qué poderosa luz los deslumbran hasta hacerles olvidarse de sí mismos? ¿Cómo esos dragones son sometidos por las que parecen llevarlos atados con un lazo de sutileza? Estas páginas buscan acercarse a ese secreto, conmovedor o perturbador, aunque para ello debamos primero descubrir las condiciones que producen unos monstruos con rostro humano, mezcla de terror y poesía, lo mejor y lo peor de la civilización.
