Once there, he found a corporate experience far different from what he had expected. Notes from Toyota-land, based on a diary that Mehri kept during his three years at an upper-level Toyota group company, provides a unique insider's perspective on daily work life in Japan and charts his transformation from a wide-eyed engineer eager to be part of the "Japanese Miracle" to a social critic, troubled by Japanese corporate practices. Mehri documents the sophisticated "culture of rules" and organizational structure that combine to create a profound control over workers.

Is There Life After Film School?

Julie Maclusky


Is There Life After Film School? Julie Maclusky Q: What are your most hated films? A: I've walked out of so many I can't even tell you. And I'd probably walk out of many of my own. The lucky students who get into film school (and then get through it without dropping out) have to compete for a small number of prestigious jobs once they graduate. Despite the enormous odds stacked against them, most students leave film school still hoping to become the next Spielberg or Scorsese. The mismatch between their dreams and the reality of working in the industry itself is considerable. Q: What are your most hated films? A: I've walked out of so many I can't even tell you.

Повесть Олеся Гончара "Земля гудит" (первоначально называвшаяся "Непокоренная Полтавчанка", 1947) рассказывает о подлинных событиях, о реально существовавших людях - о молодых полтавских подпольщиках.
