Patrick Wayne Swayze (/?swe?zi/; August 18, 1952 – September 14, 2009) was an American actor, dancer, and singer-songwriter. Having gained fame with appearances in films during the 1980s, Swayze became popular for playing tough guys and romantic lead males, gaining him a wide fan base with female audiences, and status as a teen idol and sex symbol."

Patrick Wayne Swayze , appears to me, some sadness in his eyes - that's what I got from his TV series "North and South" - he died of cancer at 51 year old. It came to my surprise that he married his teen sweet heart - "

Swayze was married to Lisa Niemi for 34 years beginning on June 12, 1975; they had no children. The couple met in 1970, when Swayze was 18 years old. Niemi, 14 years old at the time, was taking dance lessons from Swayze's mother.[24] In a 2008 interview, Swayze stated that Niemi was the inspiration for his hit song, "She's Like the Wind" (1987).

In 1989, Swayze said, "I've always felt there was something different in there (my personality), but I was scared to look. For I fear I wouldn't find anything. That's the reason I got into Buddhism, took EST training, was into therapy, into Scientology, into Transcendental Meditation. I was trying to support that side of myself. But, you know, in Texas there isn't much support for that part of you."[25] He also had said he was interested in and loved looking into different [religious] belief systems and faith[s], how it matters to other people, and how these various religious teachings are important to him in his world. "
 
He searched and didn't find his peace in materials world.

My take homes message: Friendship conquers the difference - you gotta know personally.

"Fiske who hated Orry for being a planter is seen again at Mt. Royal late in the war and doesn’t burn the plantation. If Orry hadn’t made friends with Fiske then Fiske may have always hated southerners and burned Mt. Royal."


"I love this beautiful story of love during the Civil war in North and South Carolina and of an everlasting friendship, specially because like PATRICK SWEZY, and all the renown actors and actresses that appear throughout this story."

美國內戰 (Civil War)---影片介紹

 

 

祖國在唱紅歌。祖國山河一片紅。 文革在延續,因為有文革的傳人。 文革不是毛主席的文革,不是文革一代人的文革。是我們民族的文革。

生活在美國,要了解美國。了解美國得懂美國文化,文化離不開曆史,而美國曆史的一號“史本位”就是美國內戰(Civil War)。

關於美國內戰,紀錄片大腕 Ken Burns1990年拍了個電視係列,“The Civil War”,由PBS首映。共九集。該片此刻在Netflix Amazon Prime Video上可看。不久前,演員 Caitlin Thompson女士把這九集都貼在了油管上麵,可以直接線上收看。九集的鏈接附在下麵。

因為是拍給美國大眾的,片中英語比較通俗,但語速較快,如您的英語程度屬稍挑戰,看起來會吃力。另外,美國孩子在他們的教育係統裏不間斷的接觸過內戰的信息,而 Ken Burns的觀眾對象就是這些人,所以有些背景算“常識”,並沒介紹。您觀看前需要多少知道些美國內戰的甲乙丙丁,不然看的會雲霧些。

Ken Burns 大腕領著您回遊曆史吧,^_^

後注:

不多說了,就加個小評論。第二集的開頭,影片介紹了實際上內戰時的“國歌”,Battle Hymn of the Republic,是怎樣由女詩人 Julia Ward Howe在睡夢中醒來的靈感之作。該歌的主題詞是“Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!”  貫穿全歌。

影片的尾部,第八集,題名是“War Is All Hell”。

讓共匪統一?腦子進屎了?

美國內戰 很簡單,幾句話就可以描述:
南方人要獨立,北方人要統一,北方的林肯以解放黑奴為借口,用武力打趴了要獨立的人,使南方人永遠不敢提要獨立的事;

這是中國大陸應該學習的好榜樣:用武力統一台灣!
