Dr Janina Ramirez unlocks the secrets of illuminated manuscripts that were custom-made for kings and explores the medieval world they reveal. Part 1: Ruling by the Book Janina begins her journey with the first Anglo-Saxon rulers to create a united England, encountering books in the British Library's Royal manuscripts collection which are over a thousand years old and a royal family tree which is five metres long. Janina finds out about a king who had a reputation for chasing nuns and reads a book created as a wedding gift for a ten-year-old prince. She roams from Westminster Abbey to other ancient English spiritual sites such as Winchester, St Albans and Malmesbury, and sees for herself how animal skins can be transformed into the finest vellum. Part 2: What a King Should Know Janina shows how medieval manuscripts gave power to the king and united the kingdom in an age of plague, warfare and rebellion, discovers that Edward III used the manuscripts he read as a boy to prepare him for his great victory at the battle of Crecy and reveals how a vigorous new national identity bloomed during the 100 Years War with France. In the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection Dr Ramirez finds out that magnificent manuscripts like the Bedford Hours, taken as war booty from the French royal family, were adapted for the education of English princes. She also explores how knowledge spread through a new form of book - the encyclopaedia. Part 3: Libraries Gave Us Power The story of the British Library's Royal Manuscripts collection reaches its end with the last great flowering of illumination, in the magnificent courts of the Tudors. She investigates astrological texts created for Henry VII, and unwraps his will - still in its original, extravagantly-decorated velvet and gold cover. She hears music written for Henry VIII, which went unperformed for centuries| and reads love notes between the king and Anne Boleyn, written in the margins of a prayer book. Nina also visits Bruges, the source of many of the greatest manuscripts, where this medieval art form collided with the artistic innovations of the Renaissance. （转自mvgroup论坛）。1993年1月9日，让-克劳德·莱蒙杀死了他的妻子，孩子和父母。然后他试图自杀，但未成功。18年来他一直声称是名医生，但调查表明他根本就不是医生。他多年来所做的一切就是费尽心思编织、掩盖谎言。当他的秘密就要被揭穿时，他绝望地试图消灭所有那些他无法面对的人。 1993年1月9日之前，所有认识让-克劳德·哈蒙的人，都说他是一个高超的医生，一个好人：他为世界健康组织工作，常常到处出差；他在医学界有很多朋友；一旦有空，他总乐于参与社区事务。没有人意识到哈蒙从未在医学院毕业，包括他医学院的同学。整整十八年间，哈蒙用一个谎言欺骗了所有人。当这个谎言终于被揭穿的时候，哈蒙感到自己无法面对亲人的目光，就在1993年1月9日先杀死自己的妻子和两个孩子，然后杀死自己的父母，放火烧屋，最后试图自杀。 尼科尔·加西亚用了一个《公民凯恩》式的结构拍摄本片。先拍摄惨案，然后从男主角的医学院同窗、情妇等人的角度分别追忆其人其事。本片在法国上映后，大受欢迎，是夏天最卖座的电影之一。。20世纪30年代的中原。讲礼村出了个好讲理的杨百顺，此人名为百顺却百事不顺。磨豆腐、杀猪、染布、挑水，杨百顺行行走不通，处处碰壁，然而只有剃头的外国牧师老詹和寡妇吴香香能懂他。延津大办社火，百顺表现出众一举成名，赢得延津新学校长的女儿秦曼卿的芳心。身份的悬殊使有情人难成眷属，秦曼卿被迫嫁给阴狠的新任警察局长高得令，杨百顺则入赘寡妇吴香香家。香香的地下情人罗五在狱中得知此婚事，杀警越狱嫁祸杨百顺，从此百顺、罗五两人各自亡命天涯。延津县长韩敬明，上要阿谀省府耿专员，下要防范副县长丁梓护联合地方黑势力篡权夺位，房中还要私藏巨款，每日如履薄冰。看尽事态万千，尝遍人生苍凉，杨百顺带着巧玲和灯盏踏上寻找孩子母亲的征程。 本片根据刘震云的《一句顶一万句》改编而成。。
