Project written 1991 by the writer and poet who passed away this summer 1993 – in age 41 years, tackles the Shakespearean theme, giving the heroes present-day faces.

Golden globes 2012: "Descendants" and "Artist" won

The "Descendants", the last film of the American director of Greek origin to dateAlexander Payne, is one of the big winners at this year's Golden Globes, which were presented Sunday night in Los Angeles, hosted by the British actorRicky Gervais, who unlike last year's award this year was sparing with vices.

The sensitive yet comical drama of a middle-aged man (George Clooney) who tries to find a way to communicate with his daughters knowing that his wife is dying, won the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture Drama and Best Actor in a Motion Picture Drama (Clooney).

On the "opposite" bank, the category of best comedy or musical, the "Artist" – the mute, his black and white filmMichel Hazanavicius which has been on an upswing since winning at last year's Cannes festival – winning three awards: Best Comedy or Musical, best actor in a comedy or musical for the French actorJean Desjardins and music (Ludovic Burchett).

Too bad Alexander Payne didn't also win the Golden Globe for Best Director, since this award was given toMartin Scorsese for "Hugo", a homage of the director towards the cinema itself which will be shown in theaters shortly.

Another "old", TheWoody Allen won the screenplay award for 'Midnight in Paris', where he too looks nostalgically at something in the past, the old ones, good days of the City of Light.

THEMeryl Streepwon her eighth Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Drama for her performance asMargaret Thatcherin the modest but "Iron Lady" by Philinda Lloyd. Respectively in the comedy or musical, orMichelle Williams won for her work on Seven Days with Marilyn where she also plays a real person, herMarilyn Monroe.

The awarding of the Iranian director's film is fairAsghar Farhadi"A separation" but also that of the Canadian veteranChristopher Plummer who won the prize b’ male role for the film "The Rookies" where he played his gay fatherEwan McGregor.

Guest on "Mess to Good Joy", Pavlos Kontogiannidis revealed that he was the first guest of Roula Koromilas, when she started "Morning Coffee" on ANT1!
"Rula had a show then on ET1. We had met for a coffee and he tells me "I was offered by private television" - there was no private television yet, this is important. “It's for a breakfast”, he tells me. "What should I do?; It's a risk". He finally went," revealed the well-known actor. In fact, he went on to explain how he found himself doing "footwork" on the ANT1 show that made history on Greek television: “He picks me up later one night, at 3.30, and he tells me "Tomorrow morning you will come to the show. Morning Coffee!”. I finally went and it was a mess! She was incredible!».

The news is coming M…BMW models

BMW announced plans to create a separate "brand" for its models with the well-known M logo. The official launch of the brand will take place in March at the Geneva exhibition.
With the brand of electric cars "i" that he recently introduced, BMW has now announced that it is investing in another "in-house brand", this time for a sports model with the familiar "M" logo.. The official launch of the new sports brand created within BMW's "circles" will take place next March at the Geneva Motor Show. This will include the new M models (M3, M5, M6) but also the top versions of other BMW models such as e.g. the X6 M50d.
The reasons why BMW makes this move have more to do with marketing and mainly with the way in which the "M" models are "communicated" in the global markets. In each case, after this development, we may see new models that will only compete commercially as BMW M, i.e. without simple versions in their range.
