Hugh Hudson directs this nostalgic tribute to Cambridge University
athletes Harold Abrahams and Eric Liddell, recounting the events of
the 1924 Olympics. Abrahams (Ben Cross) is a Jew who experiences
racial prejudice at Cambridge, while Liddell (Ian Charleson) is a
Scot who runs for the glory of God. The two become rivals on the
track, and both are chosen to represent Britain at the Paris
Olympics. However, a problem arises when Lidell learns that he is
expected to compete on the Sabbath; something that goes directly
against his religious beliefs. The film won Oscars for Best
Picture, Best Original Screenplay, Best Original Score and Best
Costume Design, and received a further three nominations.

“Anger and Jealousy can no more bear to lose sight of their objects than love...” George Eliot
Driven by passion, intelligence and imagination, Maggie Tulliver is a rare free spirit in the convention-bound world of Victorian rural society.
Despite the fierce love between her and her stolid brother Tom, Maggie turns to others for the companionship she craves. Denied the friendship of Philip Wakem, the son of her father’s implacable enemy, she is drawn irresistibly to the handsome Stephen Guest. Torn between love and devotion to her family, she is rejected by Tom and only an act of supreme courage can effect a final but tragic reconciliation.
Drama, romance and tragedy in a story one woman’s struggle for freedom and love.
Period action adventure set in the late 19th century, directed by
Hugh Hudson ('Chariots of Fire'). Christopher Lambert stars as
Tarzan of Greystoke, who as an infant was orphaned on the west
coast of Africa following a shipwreck, and was rescued and brought
up by a family of highly-evolved apes. Twenty years later, a
Belgian hunter, Captaine Phillippe D'Arnot (Ian Holm), encounters
the man who has now become Tarzan, Lord of the Apes when the
ape-man rescues him from a terrible death. When the Captaine finds
evidence to prove that Tarzan is the direct descendant of the Earl
of Greystoke, he takes it upon himself to return the man to
civilization. But Edwardian England is very different to the wilds
of the African jungle, and Tarzan finds himself torn between two
irreconcilable worlds...

"Soul Food" is a term coined by African Americans to capture the
uniqueness of the cooking style utilized for themselves, families
and friends, all prepared with love, care and lots of soul. Many of
these foods are rich in vitamins and minerals, but are also rich or
high in total fat, saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium (salt).
"Cutting back on salt, as well as providing recipes that are
lower in sodium, fat, and cholesterol," will help to promote
"heart-healthy living."
Cultural diversity impacts what and how we eat. Cooking and
Feasting with foods that are high in fat, sodium, and carbohydrates
(sugars), are at the center of the traditional practices of African
Americans. This ethnic group has "paid a high price for this
lifestyle, with high incidences of Diabetes." Understanding
cultural differences can aid in providing nutritional counseling
that is culturally sensitive.Remember! Diabetes is the fourth
leading cause of disease-related death for African Americans.
