viα sixpenceee: Bejeweling Skeleton
The ultimate treatment for human remains is bejeweling the entire skeleton. This was popular during the 17th and 18th centuries in parts of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, and remains of people thought to be holy would be treated in this way. This particular skeleton, in Waldsassen, Germany, was discovered in the Roman catacombs and believed to be that of a martyr — he was sent to Germany, covered in jewels, and set into an altar to inspire faith.

An absolutely golden treat has been posted on YouTube with a whole lotta Sirs and Dames! The BBC documentary called “Great Acting,” with interviews from 1965 to 1967 with Ralph Richardson, Michael Redgrave, Sybil Thorndike, Edith Evans, John Gielgud, Richard Burton, Laurence Olivier, Vanessa Redgrave, Albert Finney, Maggie Smith, and Noel Coward.Ralph describes how he decided to be an actor, and how he goes into a kind of trance on stage. Gielgud criticizes how he used to recite verse. Larry admits his rivalry with Gielgud. Richard Burton talks about his performance as Hamlet. Sybil Thorndike bursts through the screen with sheer joy and vitality. Noel Coward tells how he dealt with his biggest failure by repeatedly taking curtain calls while the audience booed. And wonderful moments with very young and serious Albert Finney and a fetching Maggie Smith.
Watch it while you can! http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=D0dIF4nVJVU
