Snow Trail (Senkichi Taniguchi, 1947)

Cast: Toshiro Mifune, Takashi Shimura, Akitake Kono, Yoshio Kosugi, Setsuko Wakayama, Kokuten Kodo. Screenplay: Akira Kurosawa. Cinematography: Junichi Segawa. Art direction: Taizo Kawashima. Film editing: Senkichi Taniguchi. Music: Akira Ifukube.

Snow Trail is the start of a famous collaboration, that of Akira Kurosawa and Toshiro Mifune. Though Kurosawa didn't direct the film, he wrote the screenplay and had a strong hand in working with director Senkichi Taniguchi. It was Mifune's first film, and he goes headlong into his handsome, brooding mode, playing a tough, ruthless bank robber on the run in the Japanese Alps. In fact, Snow Trail is the start of another major collaboration: Mifune gets top billing and has probably the showiest role, but the best performance in the film comes, as it often did, from Takashi Shimura, who would make films with both Mifune and Kurosawa often over the next couple of decades. The trio would reunite almost immediately for Drunken Angel the next year. Mifune and Shimura have joined with a third robber, played by Yoshio Kusugi, in their flight into the mountains, which hasn't gone unnoticed by the police. After a brief stay at a popular spa, the trio head deeper into the snowy wilderness, where their plight becomes more desperate after Kusugi's character is killed by an avalanche. But they come across a small lodge run by an elderly man (Kokuten Kodo) and his granddaughter, Haruko (Setsuko Wakayama) for the benefit of mountain climbers. Only one climber, Honda (Akitake Kono), is currently staying there. It's the perfect hideout: The only contact with the outside world is by carrier pigeon (which Mifune's character swiftly kills). But when the barking of dogs alerts the robbers that their pursuers are drawing nearer, they decide to move on with the aid of Honda, the experienced climber, whom Mifune's character forces to be their guide by threatening to kill Haruko. The robber played by Shimura is beginning to have regrets, but he goes along with the plan until calamity puts the climbers in peril. It's a solid action drama, with some fine cinematography in the mountain wilderness. It gets a little sentimental in the scenes with Haruko and her grandfather -- there's a heavy-handed use of a record of, no kidding, "My Old Kentucky Home" -- but good performances keep it going.

FROM THE DERRY (ME.) DAILY NEWS, MAY 15TH, 2000. MYSTERY LIGHTS ONCE AGAIN REPORTED IN JEFFERSON TRACT.  Kineo Town Manager: “I Don’t Know What They Are, But They Keep Coming Back. Over and Over.”

the alien invasion begins long before the dreamcatcher gang is even born.   lights in the sky, unfamiliar creatures with bulbous black eyes, stories of probing, earth has seen it’s fair share of alien activity long before the boys show up. 

during their annual trip to hole in the wall, the boys, now men, are split into two teams of two;  two will take the truck to get beer, the other two, will stay at the cabin and hunt.   

and so the alien invasion begins when a mysterious stranger finds his way to their cabin, nearly frost - bitten and sporting a giant, bulging stomach that visibly squirms.   jonesy invites him back to the cabin, curious as to how a man such as him could be just walking around in the middle of a snow storm. 

during this time, the other half of their quartet, gets into a wreck after almost crashing into a woman sitting in the middle of the road. they never return to the cabin after this.    the woman turns out to be the man in the cabin's wife. 

back at the cabin, after taking a brief exit to the outside of the cabin for a laugh, for some fresh air,  jonesy and beaver go back inside and find a trail of blood from the room the man was sleeping in all the way towards the bathroom. once they get inside, much to rick’s dismay, they find that he’s nearly dead and the bathroom is full of blood and red, moss looking growth.

beaver decides to shake the man and in doing so, he falls from the toilet and reveals that his backside is completely eviscerated and something has ate it’s way out of him. beaver looks inside the toilet and closes it, finding an alien looking creature;  shit - weasels, as they’ll later be called.       

the creature is stuck in the toilet, banging and trying to free itself, and jonesy is told to go out to the shed for the tape; when he returns, beaver is dead and there is more blood than before. the bathroom is growing a red growth called byrum, spores of the grey’s that infect humans.  jonesy breaks down when he sees that his best friend, his life long compadre, is dead inside the bathroom. 

this is when jonesy meets mr. gray.        nearly 8 feet tall and full of ugly, grey, reddish flesh and long pale appendages for limbs. 

mr. gray looms over him and seems to inspect him, until suddenly disappearing and dispersing as spores for jonesy to inhale; effectively taking over his motor skills, his memories, his everything.  it only takes a few minutes for mr. gray to find the language section of jonesy’s memory warehouse.

due to their telepathic powers bestowed upon them by duddits,  jonesy is able to keep himself locked up in the off-limits warehouse of his mind.   he stays there, barricaded behind the door and slowly becomes used to living without a physical body.

mr. gray, on the other hand, becomes increasingly human as the days wear on and, by learning and watching jonesy’s memory, becomes fully conscious.  mr. gray possesses the power of making humans do as he pleases, and becomes even more powerful when he realizes that his host may be much more special than the rest of the useless human population.   

in the coming days the fight begins to spread his sickness and byrus by whatever means necessary.     the only problem is that the byrum are not able to survive the harsh winter season and are dangerously close to dying out, right then and there.  mr. gray’s telepathy grows stronger, eventually forming a hive mind for all that are infected and sick. 

tldr: the invasion starts with a pair of hunters being infected by the byrus. jonesy, a telepath, becomes infected with the byrum spores and later, due to this telepathy, he and the alien are able to live alongside one another in his consciousness; but the fight to save the rest of derry doesn't stop and jonesy, the strongest of his friends, is the very reason why mr.gray, the alien, is able to conquer the town and area as quickly as he is.

tldr pt. 2; jonesy and his friends were all given gifts by an alien disguised as a human boy in their childhood. they saved him, and became his friend, and in turn he gave them all different powers to help others.

Scavengers animal

remove the bodies from the garden and re-bury them elsewhere) – this seems unlikely and scavenging is a more probable explanation. I have heard similar accounts of foxes digging up the bodies of foxes buried in people’s gardens, which has led to the suggestion that foxes may bury their dead (i.e. Roger Burrows described how foxes excavated and removed the bodies of foxes and badgers buried in his garden, in one case removing the head of a dead fox, although this should be treated with caution. Some authors have suggested that this happens during particularly harsh winters, although Stephen Harris observed cannibalism in the relatively food-rich habitat of suburban London (fox remains in six stomachs, accounting for 0.6% of the total diet), as did Brian Coman in Victoria, Australia (fox remains in 27 stomachs, accounting for just under 3% of the diet). red foxes, striped skunks, and raccoons were better able to find bait when it was cool and humid, presumably because such conditions cause scents to linger.”įoxes will occasionally scavenge carcasses of their own species. The researchers found that 66 eggs and 87 starlings were eaten by raccoons, foxes and skunks the baits hung around for longer as wind speeds increased and they concluded that: In a paper to the journal Ethology in 2012, Ruzicka and Conover presented data from their study in which they distributed chicken eggs and dead starlings in various different habitat types around the Willard Bay Reservoir between May and August 2009. By contrast, hot, dry conditions cause scents to be quickly vapourised and dispersed within a few minutes. Indeed, it has been calculated that ideal scavenging conditions occur at wind speeds of between one and four meters per second (2 - 8 knots), with cool, humid conditions to allow the scents to linger in the air and on the ground. The reason for this is that wind speeds above about three metres per second (6 knots) causes air mixing and turbulence, which dilutes odours, making them more difficult to follow. In the Highlands of Scotland, foxes typically live singly or in pairs, so a group of 12 would indicate multiple neighbouring animals making use of this food resource.Ī recent study by Rebekah Ruzicka and Michael Conover at the Utah State University in the USA suggests that the weather conditions and the landscape in which a carcass is lying impact how easily a scavenger can track it down. They had clearly eaten their fill…” A Red fox caught on a remote camera scavenging from the carcass of a deer left out by researchers at the University of Wisconsin. One was rolling in the snow in the centre of the frozen burn, and others were gnawing lazily at the stag. Others were bickering, and their yaps and yells sounded strange in a silence which seemed veritably to hiss. “ One or two of them were lying down, tidying themselves or gnawing the ice from between their toes. In his book, British Wild Animals, for example, Mortimer Batten described “a dozen foxes” surrounding a dead stag killed by the harsh conditions in the Highlands during the memorable winter of 1947. In their Mammals of the Soviet Union, Vladimir Heptner and Nikolaï Naoumov noted that foxes feed on carrion only in the late hours of the evening and overnight, leaving at sunrise (often to lay up nearby, where it may remain for several days, visiting the carcass periodically) – if the carrion is visited by wolves the fox, according to Heptner and Naoumov, follows after them early in the morning.Ī carcass may occasionally attract several foxes that will feed together it is unclear whether such aggregations of an ordinarily territorial species consist of related individuals, although some reports suggest not. shot, but not collected) during the hunting season. Indeed, following 641 miles of fox trails on three study areas in Michigan, USA, during two winters, led wildlife biologist Ray Schofield to 61% of the deer carcasses marked (i.e. They will also make use of any animals killed on roads or by hunters. Foxes are not averse to taking carrion and where they share their territory with larger carnivores (lynx and wolves, for example), they may shift their diet more towards scavenging from their kills.

New Look 1947 La Collection Privée Christian Dior Dior Nose: François Demachy

Floral

NAME "My dear Christian, your dresses have such a new look!" A fragrant echo of Christian Dior's first Couture show on February 12, 1947, the New Look 1947 fragrance bears the now-legendary name that Carmel Snow, Editor-in-Chief of Harper's Bazaar, used to describe this innovative and astonishing collection. CHARACTER Like the Bar suit, the iconic New Look piece, the fragrance immediately captures your attention as it unleashes the vivacity of its olfactory notes of Rose and Jasmine. DISTINGUISHING FEATURE The scent of Tuberose is gently revealed in the fragrance to those who know how to identify it, hidden behind the floral olfactory notes. COLOUR The black and white of Christian Dior's first Bar suit, a white that the fragrance unfurls with petals of Tuberose and Jasmine. FAMILY Floral. The fragrance blooms like a bouquet of Rose, Jasmine and Tuberose, imagined like a revolutionary skirt in which the tiniest details are the most precious. INTENSITY New Look 1947 is a fragrance with a trail of intense floral notes that leave a lasting impression. It is a fragrance in the image of Christian Dior's first runway show that made a powerful impact all around the world.

"The femininity of the New Look often inspires me. I wanted to compose a fragrance in which Rose and Jasmine unfurl like a skirt with an outrageous quantity of fabric worn on a narrow, slender waist. Heady Tuberose fully expresses this whirling vivacity." François Demachy, Parfumeur-Créateur Dior

Key notes: Tuberose, Rose, Jasmine
