Chaim Topol (9.9.1935 - 9.3.2023)

"What kind of advice can I give [young performers]? Someone sent me a quote that persistence wins. I have to disagree with this. It is an important ingredient. I don't think that there are any rules. Be persistent, be talented, work hard, but ninety-five percent is luck - so be lucky!"

#topol #chaim topol #haym topol #may his memory be a blessing #death ment tw #icons #fiddler on the roof #tevye #flash gordon #follow me #for your eyes only #galileo #american film theater #the house on garibaldi street #the winds of war #tales of the unexpected #war and remembrance #cast a giant shadow #is there a musical theatre lead more closely identified with a single performer than Tevye? i don't think so #whilst his screen career was comparatively modest‚ there's no doubt of the influence Topol had nor the impact of his version of Fiddler #his later work as a character actor on tv and film is full of small but superbly realised parts‚ but he was always and remained primarily a #stage actor. Fiddler was the first musical I ever loved and Topol's the first performance I ever heard (I still have the ost in fairly #heavy rotation). the sheer range of emotion and performance he goes through not just in the play but sometimes in one song #i mean If I were a Rich Man is a sort of pop culture behemoth that has a life beyond the play‚ but if you listen to it it's a man #expressing his wants and desires and then redefining them further and further to the realisation that his faith is most important to him #and that really he knows his faith is not predicated on any kind of wealth; and Topol sells every moment‚ the gradual adjustment from #flights of fancy and wild dreams of riches‚ to more modest comforts for his family and loved ones‚ to finally a simple wish to spend less #time working and more in devotion to g-d. it's a beautiful performance by a beautiful performer and one of the true greats of the stage

Happy Birthday in the afterlife to one of my all time favorites, Robert Mitchum! Like Alain Delon, Chow Yun-Fat, Lee Marvin, Peter O’Toole, Franco Nero, Takeshi Kitano, Toshiro Mifune and Jack Nicholson, Watching Robert Mitchum is always a pleasure! Out of The Past and Heaven Knows Mr. Allison are gems in a career full of them!

"He was just head over ears in love, with a young woman as near as his hand and as remote as a star; and for the moment it was enough to be where she was." - Herman Wouk, The Winds of War

#Herman wouk #the winds of war #the boom count #omg I love Byron already help me #don't let him fall in my esteem

'Desert hermit Ben Kenobi develops a reputation as a crazy wizard because he keeps talking to thin air.'

No. This is Tatooine, talking to yourself is hardly the weirdest thing they've seen. Ben Kenobi, however, keeps having full on fucking screaming rows with thin air and seemingly gets replies back, which is decidedly a step up.

(They've managed to piece together that a major point of contention is the acquisition and raising of a child? Clearly Ben is a wizard that had a bitter divorce with a desert spirit and is working through a custody dispute)

#i fully believe the first 3 years after qui gon manifests himself is screaming matches between the two its cathartic or something #tatooine residents watching ben have a seemingly coherent arguement with nothing #but sometimes they swear the wind moves the sand to form the shadow of a very tall man next to ben #tatooine residents very invested into the one-sided family drama theyre hearing about #obi wan kenobi #qui gon jinn #star wars

If sketch requests are still open, I wish to see Wind, Four, Hyrule, and Time playing Monopoly.

Four is a smart man who values his life😳

#nobody in the group has ever been able to hold onto the Lon Lon Ranch property #Wars got brave once and tried to buy it #but Time called a time out and took Wars aside #Time got the ranch from Wars the very next turn #poor wars wasn't ok the rest of the game #sweet monish mews and twos #I'm so sorry this literally took months for me to do #linked universe #linkeduniverse #lu fanart #lu time #lu hyrule #lu wind #lu four #wind wants chaos #meanwhile hyrule is trying to prevent a murder

there’s enough brainrot abt this au to write like a book series so I thought i would finally introduce it properly,, so here goes NOTHING !!

image descriptions:

jedi knight (botw) zelda conversating with padawan ahsoka tano strolling through the jedi temple on coruscant

there’s a firm reason the jedi council never allow commander link (botw) and general anakin skywalker on the same missions during the clone wars

general zelda and link (tp) of the rebel cell referred to as the twilight squadron debriefing their next attack towards the empire

jedi padawan link (ww) and his pirate best friend tetra have no idea what they’re about to face up against when his clone captain suddenly aims his blaster in their direction, claiming to execute the unknown directive of order 66..
