| | | | | The Killers: Encyclopedia II - Andrei Tarkovsky - Biography Tarkovsky, son of the prominent poet Arseniy Tarkovsky, was a product of the golden era of Soviet arts education. He received a classical education in Moscow, studying Music and Arabic, before training for over five years at the VGIK film school, studying directly under Mikhail Romm among others.

Ronald Reagan - Domestic record.
Reagan portrayed himself as being economically libertarian, in favor of tax cuts, smaller government, and deregulation. He also took a strong "tough-on-crime" stance.
The end of the Iran hostage crisis came when the American hostages were freed within minutes of Reagan's inauguration.
Allegations persist that the hostage release was delayed until after the election through an illegal deal between the government of Iran and the Reagan kitchen cabinet, which was keen t ...

| | | | | | | The Killers: Encyclopedia II - Film industry - History of film Mechanisms for producing artificialy created, two-dimensional images in motion were demonstrated as early as the 1860's, including the zoetrope and the praxinoscope. These machines were outgrowths of simple optical devices (such as magic lanterns), and would display sequences of still pictures at sufficient speed for the images on the pictures to appear to be moving. Naturally, the images needed to be carefully designed to achieve the desired effect — and the underlying principle became the basis for the development of film animation.

| | | | | The Killers: Encyclopedia II - Film industry - Independent filmmaking Filmmaking also takes place outside of the Hollywood studio system, and is commonly called independent filmmaking.
An independent film (or indie film) is a film initially produced without financing or distribution from a major movie studio. Creative, business, and technological reasons have all contributed to the growth of the indie film scene in the late 20th and early 21st century.
Creatively, it was becoming increasingly difficult to get s ...

| | | | | The Killers: Encyclopedia II - Film industry - Animation Animation is the technique in which each frame of a film is produced individually, whether generated as a computer graphic, or by photographing a drawn image, or by repeatedly making small changes to a model unit (see claymation and stop motion), and then photographing the result with a special animation camera. When the frames are strung together and the resulting film is viewed at a speed of 16 or more frames per second, there is an illusion of continuous movement (due to the persistence of vision). Generating such a film is very labour intens ...

| | | | | The Killers: Encyclopedia II - Ernest Hemingway - Death Hemingway attempted suicide in the spring of 1961, and received ECT treatment again, but this was unable to prevent his suicide on the morning of July 2, 1961 as a result of a self-inflicted shotgun blast to the head at the age of 61. He was buried in a service led by a Catholic priest. Prior to his suicide, Hemingway is known to have blamed the loss of his memory on ECT (biographer Jeffrey Meyers agrees). On July 14, 1961, Life magazi ...

| | | | | The Killers: Encyclopedia II - Ernest Hemingway - Influence and legacy The influence of Hemingway's writings on American literature was considerable and continues today. Indeed, the influence of Hemingway's style was so widespread that it may be glimpsed in most contemporary fiction, as writers draw inspiration either from Hemingway himself or indirectly through writers who more consciously emulated Hemingway's style. In his own time, Hemingway affected writers within his modernist literary circle. James Joyce called "A Clean, Well Lighted Place" "one of the best stories ever written". Pulp fiction and "hard boiled" crime fiction (which flourished from the 1 ...

| | | | | | | The Killers: Encyclopedia II - Generation Y - The digital factor In his book Growing Up Digital, business strategist and psychologist Don Tapscott coined the term "Net Generation" for the group, pointing at the significance of being the first to grow up immersed in a digital--and Internet--driven world.
However, they may be the last generation to appreciate their significance in a changing culture, as most of them can still readily recall older items of the pre-digital era such as VHS tapes.
In addition, most Generation Y members, even those born as late as the early 1990s can still c ...

| | | | | The Killers: Encyclopedia II - Generation Y - The moments that defined Generation Y Perhaps the best way to define the boundaries of this and other generations in the United States is by considering dominant national events. Events that shape national identity, although not completely explicative of all personality traits, may nonetheless shed light on broad characteristics in any given generation. Key points to consider are (a) which events are 'national' shaping events and (b) for these demarcation events, how is the event perceiving differently by the generation(s) who directly experienced it -- lived through it moment-b ...
