Father of Invention (2010)
In today's review, I rebrand after disaster, as I attempt a #positive review of the 2010 infomercial comedy, Father of Invention #KevinSpacey #VirginiaMadsen #JohnStamos #JohnnyKnoxville #CamillaBelle #HeatherGraham #MichaelRosenbaum #AnnaAnissimova
We indulge in quick fixes for a myriad of inconveniences, more so we want someone with a winning smile to sell them to us. The implications, or even the people behind these ideas, the people who have a vision, and with a bit of capital, can bulk the gullible out of millions, make for some fascinating tales, even if they’re mostly fantasy. In 2010, an intriguing tale of redemption and the act of…

The Color of Money (1986). Fast Eddie Felson teaches a cocky but immensely talented protégé the ropes of pool hustling, which in turn inspires him to make an unlikely comeback.
Paul Newman truly is That Actor - boundless charisma and an undeniable screen presence - he always delivers, and does so again here. He actually pairs really well both with Tom Cruise, who's playing the ingenue here in a kinda fun role reversal, and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, who plays a woman hungry for a life bigger than the one she's ended up with. It's got some great and tense action sequences too, and is just overall a pretty fun sports film. 8/10.

The rallying cry from the Grue Crew is, “Chad is back!” For his return episode, the crew picks an 80s movie that surely everyone has seen. Well, everyone but Jeff. The film is HOUSE, released in 1985… or is it 1986? Covered seven years ago by Doc Rotten, Christopher G. Moore, and Thomas Mariani in episode 105, the current crew decided to revisit this comedy-horror feature. Starring some 80s TV icons – William Katt (The Greatest American Hero, 1981-1983), George Wendt (Cheers, 1982-1993), Richard Moll (Night Court, 1984-1992) – the cast, crew, and effects give them plenty to talk about and there’s plenty of taglines for Chad’s return. Welcome back, brother!
At the time of this writing, House is available to stream from Tubi, PlutoTV, and Amazon Prime, as well as multiple PPV sources, and on physical media as a Blu-ray from Arrow Video.
Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film chosen by Chad, will be Spookies (1985), a film whose making-of story might be more interesting than the movie itself.

Women Executed by the Tudors
Joan Boughton was an eighty-year-old widow who was burnt at the stake for holding views associated with John Wycliffe. This is the same execution that Thomas Cromwell witnesses as a child in the Wolf Hall series.
Elizabeth Barton was a servant in the household of Thomas Cobb who began prophesying that Henry VIII would die if he married Anne Boleyn, and even stating that she had seen the place in hell where he would go. Elizabeth was arrested in 1533 and hanged at Tyburn, with her head being put on a spike to be displayed on the London Bridge afterwards.
Tumblr media
Anne Boleyn was the second wife of Henry VIII who was executed by beheading on false charges of adultery, incest and plotting to kill the king.
Tumblr media
Mabel Brigge was executed for committing a “black fast”, which was fasting in the belief that it would cause death to Henry VIII and Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk. (I’m not sure how she was executed, but I assume she was hanged).
Margaret Pole was sixty-seven-year-old woman who was executed by beheading for corresponding with her son, Reginald Pole.
Tumblr media
Katherine Howard was the fifth wife of Henry VIII who was executed by beheading for allegedly committing adultery with Thomas Culpeper.
Tumblr media
Jane Boleyn was a lady-in-waiting who was executed by beheading for allegedly assisting Katherine Howard in committing adultery.
Anne Askew was a writer and poet who was burnt at the stake for holding Protestant viewpoints.
Tumblr media
Jane Grey was executed by beheading for agreeing to be placed on the throne, when most believed that Mary I was the rightful successor.
Tumblr media
Mary, Queen of Scots was executed by beheading for being involved in a plot against Elizabeth I.

English / Elizabethan Renaissance

Background
*Note: for accuracy, the sections will be labeled as Elizabethan rather than English as the period is defined by Elizabeth I's influence on England.
Secularization (converting to a new religion) began when Henry VIII tried to get his marriage to Catherine of Argon annulled to marry Anne Boleyn.
His daughter Mary (the daughter of Henry and Catherine) became queen and attempted to reinstate Catholicism.
She became known as "Bloody Mary" for burning 280 Protestants for refusing to convert to Catholicism.
Elizabeth I was crowned Queen of England after Mary's death in 1558.
Elizabeth strengthened the Anglican Church
With the execution of her cousin, Mary, Queen of Scots, she ended the Catholic claim to the throne.
England had also defeated the Spanish Armada.
Thomas More's Utopia was a landmark of the early Elizabethan Renaissance.
Interludes- brief dramatic entertainments written and staged by professionals
They were presented at court and in the homes of the nobility.

Elizabethan Drama
Categorized by Seneca's revenge-obsessed characters, his presentation of violence on stage, and his use of supernatural beings.
Drama in England followed an Episodic structure
a series of episodes all connected but perhaps out of chronological sequence.
English playwrights went against neoclassical ideals set by Italy
art should express the ideal virtues in life and could improve the viewer by imparting a moralizing message
Five basic rules were established: form purity, five acts, verisimilitude or realism, decorum, and purpose.
Verisimilitude: having reality/truth concerning the play
Decorum: appropriate speech or acting of a character
The neutral platform stage had evolved to the point that was ideal for plays.

Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593)
focused on dramatic poetry
Under Marlowe, Iambic Pentameter developed strength, subtly, and suppleness.
Iambic Pentameter: a line of verse with five metrical feet, each consisting of one short (or unstressed) syllable followed by one long (or stressed) syllable
Perfected the chronicle play
history play that emphasizes important public issues
Marlowe's verse and subject matter influenced Shakespeare
One of his most popular surviving works is Doctor Faustus

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
Took Senecan devices: episodic structure, the platform stage, powerful dramatic verse and stories from English and Roman history, Roman drama, and Italian literature.
By 1590, he was in London, working as an actor and a playwright.
His verse—especially in the power of his metaphors and the music of his language— is extraordinary.
His characters are so well-rounded and carefully detailed that they often seem like living people.
He excelled in tragedies, comedies, histories, and other dramas that are difficult to categorize (sometimes problem plays)
Shakespeare uses episodic structure to create a forceful, imaginative drama that has its own dynamics

Elizabethan Theatres
Referred to as public and private, outdoor and indoor, or amphitheater and hall playhouses.
The larger theatres as the Globe and the Fortune, were open to the sky in their central area.
They accommodated more people and charged less for admission than the smaller indoor/ hall theatres, which were private.
The public theatres were built outside the city limits of London, to the north or south of the city across the Thames River.
The London City fathers opposed theatres on moral grounds and forbade them in the city.
Outdoor theatres were a platform stage about 4 ft high that thrust into the audience.
Outdoor theatres were a neuter stage.
The audience capacity was 1,500-3,000 spectators.
On the ground floor, in front of and on the sides of the stage, was a standing area known as the yard.
The lower-class spectators who stood there were called groundlings.
The stage was a raised platform surrounded on 3 sides by the audience
It was closer to a contemporary thrust stage than to a proscenium arch stage

The tiring house was probably a three-story building that served as a place for changing costumes and storing props and set pieces.
Its facade was the basic scenic element in the Elizabethan public theatres.
Exits into the tiring house and entrances from it indicated a scene change.
Musician's Gallery
The third level of the tiring house probably housed about 6 musicians who provided accompaniment for the plays.
Heavens or shadows
A roof extending from the tiring house protected the stage.
Supported by pillars on some theatres and was suspended from the back for others.
The underside of the roof was often painted to literally represent the heavens.
From the opening of the first private/indoor theatre, the Blackfriars Theatre, in 1576 until about 1608:
These theatres were used exclusively by the popular boys' companies
private theatres sat about 600-750 spectators
were often lit by candles and had high windows
The pit of a private theatre faced the stage in only one direction and had backless benches.
The platform stage probably extended to the side walls.
Galleries and boxes faced the stage on 3 sides.
During the Jacobean period, wealthy audience members could sit on the stage.
