The Hollow Crown

Henry IV part 1
Henry IV finds himself facing uprisings from the Welsh chieftain Owen Glendower and impetuous young Harry Hotspur,son of the Duke of Northumberland,angry with the king for not paying Glendower ransom for his brother-in-law Mortimer. Another trial for Henry is the fact that his son,Prince Hal,keeps company with the older,reprobate drunkard Sir John Falstaff. Though the prince is his friend he is not above playing cruel jests on Falstaff,robbing him in disguise and returning his money after Falstaff has given an exaggerated account of his bravery in the hold-up. However Hal joins his father at the wintry battle of Shrewsbury to put down Hotspur's revolt,where Hal kills Hotspur in single combat - Falstaff later claiming credit for the deed. Hotspur is routed but Henry and Hal still have to face the uprisings of Glendower and Nortumberland,now joined by the archbishop of York.



The Deep Blue Sea


 This story Set 'around 1950', The Deep Blue Sea tells the story of Hester Collyer, the younger wife of High Court judge Sir William Collyer, who has embarked on a passionate affair with Freddie Page, a handsome young former RAF pilot troubled by his memories of the Second World War. Freddie throws Hester's life in turmoil, as their erotic relationship leaves her emotionally stranded and physically isolated. For Freddie, that tumultuous mix of fear and excitement that was once in his life seems to be no longer missing.
The majority of the film takes place during one day in Hester's flat, a day on which she has decided to commit suicide. Her attempt fails and as she recovers, the story of her affair and her married life is played out in a mosaic of short and sporadic flashbacks. We soon discover the constraints of Hester's comfortable marriage, which is affectionate but without sexual passion.
As Hester's affair is discovered she leaves her life of comparative luxury and moves into a small dingy London flat with Freddie. Hester's new lover has awakened her sexuality, but the reckless, thrill-seeking Freddie can never give her the love and stability that her husband gave. Yet to return to a life without passion would be unbearable. The film takes its title from her dilemma of being between the Devil and the deep blue sea

Archipelago
This story is about Edward is in the throes of a quarter-life crisis. He is quitting his job in the city to travel to Africa.To see him off, his mother Patricia and sister Cynthia have organized a family vacation and farewell party on Tresco in the Isles of Scilly in a cottage they often rented years before. An invitation has also been extended to Patricia's estranged husband, who appears to have expressed the vague intention of coming.
His mother and sister have deemed this a family-only vacation and have forbidden Edward to bring Chloe, his girlfriend. Even with the exclusion of Chloe, they have nonetheless invited some outsiders: Christopher, a local artist who has been hired to teach Patricia how to paint the beautiful surrounding landscapes. Patricia has hired a professional cook, Rose to prepare all their meals and clean.
Things start to fall into place and the trip quickly turns into mental crises and anxiety. Edward starts to wonder if his mother and sister have created this whole vacation with ulterior motives of their own. He seems all too ready to be talked out of his African plan, because he actually doesn't have the smallest idea what to do with his life and comes close to trying and seducing Rose.
The bitter brother-sister relationship between Edward and Cynthia boil over over the course of the vacation and it comes to a head after Edward thinks that not inviting Rose to sit with them at the table is ridiculous, but it is insisted that because Rose has been hired as a cook, asking her to join them would be uncomfortable. To make up for it, they invite her to a restaurant meal, where Cynthia spoils it by complaining about the food.
Edward's African trip begins to look unlikely, upstaged by the stunning reality of the Isles of Scilly themselves, so beautiful and exotic. Rose decides to leave earlier than she had planned and instead of saying goodbye, she leaves a note in the kitchen, which Edward finds. Towards the end the trio pack up and say goodbye to the house and rejoin their lives back in reality.

A PROMISE

Friends keep promises, and they are always there to comfort you in times of desperation. Friends are ment to be kept, and trusted, no matter what.
I always trusted him. With my life. We’ve always been there for each other, for every new project, and for every break-up. Always promising the same thing… I’ll never leave you.
And I never did. But him…
