David Frankel directs this comedy drama about a middle-aged couple who seek professional help after running into marital problems. Scripted by Vanessa Taylor, the film tells the story of Arnold and Maeve Soames (Tommy Lee Jones and Meryl Streep), who have hit the rocks after 30 years of marriage. Recognising that they must face the problems in their relationship, they decide to attend an 'intense counseling weekend', where they are taken under the wing of impassioned couples therapist Dr Bernie Feld (Steve Carrell).

Comedy starring Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson as three men in different stages of life competing to become champion birdwatchers. Stu (Martin) is a successful business executive on the brink of retirement. Brad (Black), the youngest of the three, works as a computer programmer but lacks direction and focus in his life. Meanwhile, the obsessive and unscrupulous Kenny (Wilson) will stop at nothing to hold onto his title of World's Greatest Birder. As they travel the length and breadth of North America as participants of the 'Big Year' competition, in which birders compete to spot the greatest number of bird species in the United States over the course of one year, the three men discover as much about themselves and each other as they do about America's bird population.

All 20 episodes from the sixth and final series of the hit comedy drama series set in New York. In 'To Market, To Market', Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) is getting so nervous about her date with Berger (Ron Livingston) that she decides to go on a Sim-u-date to calm her nerves. 'Great Sexpectations' sees Carrie realising that the passion she and Berger feel for each other doesn't translate to the bedroom. In 'The Perfect Present', Carrie is concerned by Berger's hostile reaction to his ex-girlfriend's voicemail message. In 'Pick-a-Little, Talk-a-Little', Berger reacts badly to Carrie's jokey criticism of his new novel. In 'Lights, Camera, Relationship', Carrie and Berger's relationship starts to look even more fragile when Carrie gets a big advance for her book just as Berger's option is dropped by his publisher. In 'Hop, Skip and a Week', Berger and Carrie drift even further apart and he finally dumps her - by Post-it note. In 'The Post-it Always Sticks Twice', Carrie vows to her friends that she won't badmouth Berger - but when she runs into some friends of his the temptation proves irresistible. In 'The Catch', Charlotte (Kristin Davis) gets married to Harry (Evan Handler). 'A Woman's Right to Shoes' finds Carrie's new Manolos being stolen at her friend's baby shower. In 'Boy, Interrupted', Carrie runs into an old high school boyfriend, who is in town to attend a local psychiatric facility. 'The Domino Effect' sees Big (Chris Noth) back in town for an operation. In a feverish delirium he opens up to Carrie - but on recovery becomes his usual cool and closed-off self. In 'One', Carrie meets Aleksandr Petrovsky (Mikhail Baryshnikov) at a hot new art exhibition. In 'Let There Be Light', Carrie stays over at Aleksandr's apartment and the two become an official item. In 'Catch-38', Aleksandr tells Carrie that he has a daughter in Paris, and that he doesn't want any more children - leaving Carrie to wonder if, at 38, she's willing to give up a man for a baby she may or may not want to have. 'Out of the Frying Pan' sees Carrie walking out on Aleksandr when, during a conversation about Samantha's (Kim Cattrell) breast cancer, he mentions a friend of his who died of the illness. In 'The Cold War', Carrie arranges for her friends to meet Aleksandr, but he doesn't show up, and it turns out he's anxious about his forthcoming exhibition in Paris. In 'Splat', Carrie accepts Aleksandr's offer to accompany him to Paris. In 'An American Girl in Paris (Part Une)', Carrie, left to her own devices on the streets of Paris while Aleksandr prepares for his exhibition, is missing her friends and her life back home. In the final episode, 'An American Girl in Paris (Part Deux)', Carrie returns to New York and her friends with Big after he tracks her down in Paris and they realise they are meant to be together.

All ten episodes of the award-winning mini-series based on the real-life experiences of American paratroopers who fought in Europe during the Second World War. From their training in Camp Toccoa, Georgia, through their landing in Normandy as part of the D-Day offensive, their participation in the Battle of the Bulge, and all the way up to the final surrender of the German forces, the series follows the adventures of Easy Company, a unit noted for its skill and bravery, but which also suffered a high number of casualties in its journey across Europe. Each episode also features excerpts from actual interviews with surviving members of the company.

A plane crashes. A boy drowns. A body is found on a dark lakeside. A woman tries to make sense of a strange memory from her childhood. A father searches for a missing dog – his only link to his lost son. A boy on the brink of adolescence embarks on a journey and gets more than he bargained for. Young lovers get their kicks trespassing in empty houses. A young man prepares to leave his hometown for the last time, and a giant sink hole threatens to swallow everything. In Forgetting Is How We Survive, people are haunted by ghosts of the past, tormented by doppelgangers and pining for the futures that have been lost to them. Each faces a turning point – an event that will move their life from one path to another, and every event casts a shadow. The stories in this collection come from another England where earthy realism hides another world where anything is possible.

Environments, landscapes, and ecological systems are often seen as fundamental by archaeologists, but how they relate to society is understood in very different ways. The chapters in this book take environment, culture, and technology together. All have been the focus of much attention; often one or other has been seen as the starting point for analysis, but this volume argues that it is the study of the inter-relationships between these three factors that offers a way forward. The contributions to this book pick up different strands within the tangled web of intersections between environment, technology, and society, providing a series of case studies which explore facets of this common theme in different settings and circumstances and from different perspectives. As well as addressing themes of theoretical and methodological interest, these case studies draw on primary research dealing with time periods from the late Pleistocene glacial maximum to the very recent past, and involve societies of very different types. Running through all the contributions, however, is a concern with the archaeological record and the ways in which scales of observation and availability of evidence affect the development of questions and explanations. The diversity of the chapters in this volume demonstrates the inherent weakness in any attempt to prioritise environment, technology, or society. These three factors are all embedded in any human activity, as change in one will result in change in the others: social and technical changes alter relations with the environment-and indeed the environment itself-and as environmental change drives changes in society and technology. As this book shows, it is possible to consider the relationship between the three factors from different perspectives, but any attempt to consider one or even two in isolation will mean that valuable insights will be missed.

Three works of fiction and fantasy that combine the images of myth and reality.

These advanced sketches offer a montage of shadows and light in a kaleidoscopic reflection of our every day lives turned upside down and inside out.

Andy Randolph and Rebekah Morris found love at an early age. Andy also found tragedy. Losing Rebekah left Andy an empty shell and nothing could fill that place in his heart and soul.

Alexandra Barnett went through her teen years mostly alone although she was a star athlete in high school. She competed against and beat the boys in some events. When that ability led to a savage beating by a male competitor, Alexandra lost her ability to bear children and nearly her life.

The Higher Power sent Rebekah to Alexandra and the two formed a bond that only became stronger when Andy and Alexandra met. Rebekah never thought she'd be the third person, but someone else had other plans.
