Ken Russell helms this graphic 1971 adaptation of a documented
witchcraft case, which took place in France in 1634. Outspoken
priest Urbain Grandier (Oliver Reed) finds himself accused of
seducing a group of hysterical nuns while in demon form by Mother
Superior Sister Jeanne (Vanessa Redgrave), who is obsessed with
Grandier and driven into a fit of envy when he marries another
woman. With the involvement of charismatic exorcist Father Barre
(Michael Gothard), the affair turns into a sordid mass exorcism of
the tainted convent. With much controversy surrounding its subject
matter of religion combined with violence and sex, many cuts were
made to the film in order for it to attain certification.
Promoting Equity, Cooperation and Innovation in the Fields of
Transboundary Waters and Natural Resources Management honours the
memory and legacy of Dr. David J.H. Phillips, an extraordinary
scientist, consultant and friend of the editors and contributors.
He was a scientist of exceptional quality, dedicated to the
practical study of aquatic environments, be they marine, freshwater
or virtual. This volume contains excerpts from his meticulously
researched work from a wide range of settings globally. Colleagues'
essays provide insights to a man who lived life to the utmost,
worked to the highest professional standards and had a unique gift
in challenging situations to generate understanding and practical
responses through his curiosity, remarkable ingenuity, and sheer
hard work. His work opens many new paths of research and continues
to inspire scientists and researchers in the fields of marine
biology and pollution, fresh water issues, and conflict over
transboundary water resources.

The true story of Derek Bentley (Christopher Eccleston), hanged,
aged 19, in the 1950s after a controversial decision holding him
responsible for the murder of a police officer. Despite a history
of mental illness, and with the court accepting that he did not
actually pull the trigger, Bentley was still sentenced to death -
on the basis that his ambiguous cry of 'let him have it!' caused
his young accomplice to fire the fatal shot. The release of this
film focused attention on the case once more, and Bentley
eventually received a posthumous pardon.
Early 1960s Cockney comedy directed by Joan Littlewood. Returning
home from sea after two years, Charlie Gooding (James Booth) finds
his home demolished and his wife Maggie (Barbara Windsor) missing.
When he finally tracks her down, she's moved in with bus driver
Bert (George Sewell) and has a new baby, the parentage of whom is
in doubt. As Charlie attempts to win his wife back, his explosive
temper soon threatens to undo all his good work.
