How Old Disney Used the 60-30-10 Color Rule.

60% for the background
30% for detail
10% for character/pop (What you focus on)

The 60-30-10 rule reflects the natural balance of colors found in the world around us, making viewers want to stop and enjoy the image for longer.

Natalie Portman on Padme Amidala in Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith — DVD bonus features (2005)

[Ce jour-là dans l'Histoire @CeJourHistoire]

Marie Curie est née il y a 159 ans. Elle reste la seule personne au monde à avoir reçu deux prix Nobel dans deux sciences différentes.

Ses cahiers de laboratoire sont encore radioactifs. Pour les consulter, il faut signer une décharge et porter une tenue de protection.

Elle naît le 7 novembre 1867 à Varsovie, en Pologne, alors sous la domination de l'Empire russe. Elle s'appelle Maria Sklodowska.

En 1891, elle part étudier à Paris, à la Sorbonne, où sa sœur aînée l'a précédée.

Elle y rencontre Pierre Curie, un physicien français. Ils se marient en 1895.

En 1898, ils découvrent deux éléments inconnus. Elle appelle le premier polonium, en hommage à son pays. Le second, c'est le radium.

Leur laboratoire est un hangar mal aéré, où il pleut à l'intérieur.

Ils y traitent des tonnes de minerai. Une tonne donne à peine un dixième de gramme de radium.

En 1903, le couple reçoit le prix Nobel de physique. Elle est la première femme de l'histoire à recevoir un Nobel.

Trois ans plus tard, Pierre meurt dans une rue de Paris, renversé par une voiture à cheval.

Elle reprend son cours à la Sorbonne. Elle devient la première femme professeure de l'université.

En 1911, elle reçoit un second Nobel, de chimie cette fois.

En 1914, la guerre éclate. Elle apprend à conduire et équipe 20 voitures de radiologie pour soigner les blessés près du front.

Elle meurt le 4 juillet 1934, en Haute-Savoie, d'une maladie du sang. Ses années au contact des rayons en sont probablement la cause.

En 1995, elle entre au Panthéon. Sur son fronton, il est écrit : « Aux grands hommes ».

Elle est la première femme à y reposer pour ses propres travaux.

The man holding the award in this photo is David Niven. This was taken in 1959, right after he won an Oscar for his role in "Separate Tables."

He'd served as a British infantry officer until 1933, but deserted after being arrested for insolence and disobeying orders getting his guard drunk to distract him before making his escape. He sent a telegram from the ship carrying him to the U.S. to formally announce he was quitting.

Once in America, he took on odd jobs, including working the rodeo circuit, before eventually breaking into acting. By the time Britain entered the war in 1939, he was already a rising Hollywood star being handed leading roles.
He then walked away from all of it to go back home and fight against the Nazis. He joined an elite marine commando unit (alongside Peter Ustinov) and took part in the D-Day landings in June 1944, as well as the Battle of the Bulge with a special unit called "Phantom." He was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel before returning to acting in 1946.

He was famous for staying calm and funny no matter the situation.
Here's a story that proves it: during the Battle of the Bulge, he was stopped at a checkpoint by an American MP sergeant while riding in a jeep. Since American forces had just discovered German commandos disguised as military police infiltrating their ranks, he had to prove his identity by answering a question he genuinely didn't know.
The question was:

"Which team won the baseball championship in 1941?"

His reported response:
"Haven't got the faintest idea, old chap all I know is I was filming in Hollywood with Ginger Rogers back in '39…"

Christopher Lee said Pierce Brosnan was the best and closest version of James Bond.

“In my opinion - and I think I know as much if not more about Bond than anyone, Pierce Brosnan was by far the best and closest to the character.”

[ArchaeoHistories @histories_arch]

The baby hatches (historically known as foundling wheels or modern Babyklappen), which are safe and anonymous drop-off points for unwanted or distressed newborns...

In the Middle Ages, a rotating wheel system called "ruota degli esposti" was developed for the safe abandonment of unwanted babies. The first example was seen in 1188 at the hospital in Marseille, France. In 1198, Pope Innocent III, affected by the corpses of babies drowned in the Tiber River, had this system installed at the Santo Spirito hospital in Rome. Thanks to the rotating cylinder placed in the wall, the mother could leave the baby anonymously and alert the staff by ringing a bell. The system spread rapidly in Italy, France, and Spain and was used for centuries.

Today, the same idea continues as the modern "baby box" (Babyklappe). It became widespread again in Germany from 2000 onwards; there are currently about 100 of them. The boxes are equipped with a heated bed and an alarm system. When a baby is left, the staff are alerted and the child is taken into protection. In Italy, there are similar boxes called "culle per la vita". They also exist in countries such as the Czech Republic, Poland, Austria, and Switzerland. In the USA, it has been established in many states with the "Safe Haven Baby Boxes" system. In Pakistan, there are more than 300 examples.

Aún me sigue impresionando lo descomunal que estuvo Natalie Portman como Evey en ‘V for Vendetta’. Su mejor actuación desde ‘Black Swan’.
