Product Description
American Beauty is a 1999 American drama film, directed by Sam Mendes and written by Alan Ball. Kevin Spacey plays Lester Burnham, a middle-aged office worker who has a midlife crisis after becoming infatuated with his teenage daughter's best friend. The film co-stars Annette Bening and Thora Birch as Lester's wife and daughter respectively. Mena Suvari, Wes Bentley and Chris Cooper also feature. American Beauty marked acclaimed theater director Mendes' film directorial debut; it was also Ball's first produced film screenplay. The film was financed by DreamWorks, which bought Ball's spec script for a six-figure sum in 1998. Spacey was Mendes' first choice for the role of Lester Burnham, though DreamWorks had urged the director to consider better-known actors; similarly, the studio suggested several actors for the role of Carolyn?Lester's wife?until Mendes cast Bening without DreamWorks' knowledge. Principal photography took place between December 1998 and February 1999 on soundstages at the Warner Bros. backlot in Burbank, California and on location in Los Angeles. The film underwent several changes during editing that affected its tone and eliminated expository bookend scenes. ... Read more

Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Andy Mckee (Né le 4 Avril, 1979 à Topeka, Kansas) est un guitariste américain, particulièrement connu pour intégrer de manière prédominante le tapping dans son jeu. Il est actuellement sous contrat avec la maison de disques américaine Candyrat Records. Son style de jeu et ses compositions l'ont rendu très populaire auprès des fans de tapping et de picking. Fin 2006, une performance en live de son titre phare Drifting obtient une notoriété considérable sur la plateforme de vidéos en ligne YouTube et sur le site MySpace, la vidéo ayant été vue par plusieurs millions d'utilisateurs. Celle-ci se trouve ainsi rapidement propulsée dans le classement de tête des vidéos musicales les plus regardées de tous les temps sur internet. Une poignée d'autres chansons d'Andy Mckee connaissent également un grand succès sur YouTube, telles que Rylynn et Africa (reprise du groupe Toto), toutes les deux dépassant en vidéo le score de 9 000 000 de visionnages. Andy Mckee commence à jouer de la guitare lorsque son père lui offre une Aria avec des cordes en nylon pour le jour de son 13 anniversaire. Plutôt déçu par ses cours de guitare, c'est son cousin (qui joue lui même de la guitare électrique) qui le pousse à continuer et l'emmène voir, pour ses 16 ans, Preston Reed en concert. Peu de temps après, Andy achète une cassette d'apprentissage de Reed et perfectionne rapidement sa technique musicale à la guitare. La même année, il obtient son baccalauréat, ce qui lui permet de se focaliser dorénavant sur la musique plutôt que poursuivre des étude...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more
