A powerful portrait of a time and culture, of late 70s to early 80s and football hooligan gangs, of working-class lives and men left abandoned by Thatcher's BritainFor Paul Carty, 19, and his mystical, Joy Division-loving mate Elvis, life revolves around The Pack, a mob of violent Tranmere Rovers supporters. Carty and Elvis travel the Northern wastelands, always by train, causing mayhem in the 'woollyback' strongholds of Halifax, Crewe and Chesterfield. For most of the mob, The Pack is their reason for living. But Elvis, who loves Ezra Pound, and Carty, still getting over the death of his mother, are starting to get bored of it all.The question is: will the Pack let them go? And can they get by without each other?
Everyone has an opinion about movies! As cinema grew as an art form, so did the importance of the film critic. Whereas it used to be that a select few voices were the authority on movies, technology has given the opportunity for anyone to have a platform to express their opinion. So what separates true critics from the rest? How do you make your voice stand out? In How To Be A Film Critic: Sixteen Conversations with Critics That Know, award winning film critic, Kevin Sampson, provides an in-depth look at the careers of accredited critics who have made a mark on the industry in newspaper (USA Today, New York Times, Washington Post), radio (WTOP, WHUR), TV (NBC, ABC, FOX), online outlets (rogerebert.com, Indiewire, Screen Rant), YouTube, and podcasts. This multi-generational look at the modern film critic and movie reviewer will equip you with the knowledge of how to: find your voice, keep a fresh perspective with each film you see, formulate unique questions for interviews, understand where the industry is headed and more. With specific advice for the up and coming critic, this book is a must read for anyone who desires to become a critic or is a film enthusiast!
On 15 April 1989, the world witnessed one of the worst football disasters in history occur at the Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield. 96 people were crushed to death and another 766 injured in a tragedy that was later admitted to have been exacerbated by police failures.Hillsborough Voices does justice to the memory of all those who died and for all those left behind. From the tragic events of the day to what unfolded in the hours, days and eventually years that followed, the book will interweave the voices of those who were there with the families and friends of those who died, and all those who have played key roles in the long search for the truth.The author, Kevin Sampson, has a long history with Hillsborough. Not only was he there as a fan to witness the horror first-hand, he also helped organise the Hillsborough benefit concert at Anfield and has close connections with the justice campaign. He has conducted exhaustive and exclusive interviews both with people who have become familiar public figures and those who will be telling their heart-rending personal stories for the first time to bring us the full story.The book will be fully endorsed and promoted by the Hillsborough Justice Campaign and will carry the official HJC logo.
