To Go On Two Legs: Gregory's Fascinating Recapitulation of a Cinematic Train Wreck
Documentarian David Gregory graduates from an extensive history of shorts with his first feature length achievement, the verbosely titled Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley's The Island of Dr. Moreau. However, the title is something of a misnomer, much like another recent examination of a project that never came to fruition with its originating director, Jodorowsky's Dune. Stanley, who had gained a successful cult following in the early 90s for Hardware (1990) and the Miramax distributed Dust Devil (1992), would engage in the sort of uphill production battle that rivalled historical studio horror stories. Weather, nervous producers, pampered diva personalities, and ultimately, Stanley's own limitations in reigning in such aggressive setbacks would result in his being fired from the set. However, the strangeness doesn't stop there. Gregory manages to convey the extremity of a much maligned production, »

This is a reprint of our interview from the 2014 Fantastic Fest. When it comes to documentaries that chart the making of a particular film, some of the very best have come from those closest to the filmmakers. The most towering achievement in this regard is probably "Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse," an intense making-of documentary that follows Francis Ford Coppola and the bonkers production of "Apocalypse Now," which was co-authored by Coppola's wife, Eleanor. Following in Eleanor's footsteps is Liv Corfixen, the wife of "Drive" filmmaker Nicolas Winding Refn, who took to cataloguing the production of Refn's polarizing, Bangkok-set thriller "Only God Forgives," with "My Life Directed by Nicolas Winding Refn." We had the chance to sit down with Refn and Corfixen at the recent Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas. The documentary is an intimate portrait of frustration and familial unrest (since they had to move the family »

Rather than take a backseat to "Drive" director Nicolas Winding Refn, occasional actress and full-time housewife Liz Corfixen fires back with a film of her own, billed as a behind-the-scenes look at her helmer husband's Bangkok-made "Only God Forgives," but essentially a loose production diary from her point of view. For anyone who's ever wondered what being married to a tortured, world-famous director must be like, "My Life Directed by Nicolas Winding Refn" suggests the sacrifices required of those who live in an artist's orbit, but it fails to offer what groupies surely want, which is insight into Refn's creative process.
Though billed as a documentary, this 59-minute doodle barely rises above homemovie status, featuring more material of Corfixen's two daughters dancing naked around hotel rooms than it does actual on-set footage — though ambient music from "Drive" composer Cliff Martinez gives her a distinct advantage over most amateur videographers. »

★★★☆☆ Liv Corfixen's My Life Directed by Nicolas Winding Refn (2014) starts from the unfortunate position of being wide open to comparison with another behind-the-scenes peek, Eleanor Coppola's Heart of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse (1991). Where that film followed the incredible disasters that befell Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now (1979) shoot, this documents the far less eventful making of Danish enfant terrible Refn's Only God Forgives (2013). While Corfixen's film - clocking in at just under an hour - is little more than a DVD extra, it's also an intimate look at her husband's struggle with artistic satisfaction and her own with a life indentured to his blossoming career.

Dan Kois declares that the rejection of "Boyhood" on Sunday as Oscar's Best Picture was the Academy's "worst mistake in 20 years." He says we witnessed an "epochal travesty" when the Richard Linklater film lost, which only happens when "a true masterpiece, a movie for the ages, somehow battles its way through the mediocrity" to only lose in the end. He calls the eventual winner "Birdman" a "terrific" movie, but that we will look back to say "how did they let this happen?" Other "epochal travesty" losses over the years have been by "Citizen Kane," "The Graduate," "High Noon," "Goodfellas," "Pulp Fiction," "Apocalypse Now," "Raging Bull," "Raiders of the Lost Ark, and "E.T."

In 1998, two celebrated American directors each delivered a World War II film depicting the horrors of war. The directors were Terrence Malick and Steven Spielberg, proffering "The Thin Red Line" and "Saving Private Ryan," respectively. While Spielberg's classic focuses on the individual's sacrifice and pain in service of a worthwhile mission taking place in WWII, Malick's film is an anti-war tone poem that could just as easily be about the Vietnam war, examining how the destruction of war affects all of nature. A video essay from Adam Laity deconstructs the way landscapes and natural environments are used in those films among others. Running just over 20 minutes, the video reads classics like "Apocalypse Now" and "Full Metal Jacket" closely, dissecting how a director can use the setting of a film to drive home certain themes. Big chunks of the essay are devoted to both Coppola's and Malick »

By winning the Best Cinematography Oscar for a second year in a row, "Birdman" director of photography Emmanuel Lubezki has joined a truly elite club whose ranks haven't been breached in nearly two decades. Only four other cinematographers have won the prize in two consecutive years. The last time it happened was in 1994 and 1995, when John Toll won for Edward Zwick's "Legends of the Fall" and Mel Gibson's "Braveheart" respectively. Before that you have to go all the way back to the late '40s, when Winton Hoch won in 1948 (Victor Fleming's "Joan of Arc" with Ingrid Bergman) and 1949 (John Ford's western "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon"). Both victories came in the color category, as the Academy awarded prizes separately for black-and-white and color photography from 1939 to 1956. Leon Shamroy also won back-to-back color cinematography Oscars, for Henry King's 1944 Woodrow Wilson biopic "Wilson" and John M. Stahl »

As the cast slowly comes together for Nicolas Winding Refn's next picture, The Neon Demon, a brand new trailer has been released for the documentary from his wife that focuses on his previous effort that split audiences right down the middle.
My Life Directed comes from Liv Corfixen and follows the intimate and emotional journey she took with her husband as he headed off to Bangkok to film Only God Forgives.
A mash of highs and emotional lows look to be on full display as Refn battles with himself and the test that weighs on his family and his filmmaking career. How did he handle working on the project that the world hoped would be just as huge a success as Drive was, and was the result a personal success for him to move on from a film that even he accept was both loved and loathed by many. »

For his feature film debut, Australian filmmaker Kiah Roache-Turner delivers a raucously fun and badass zombie-infused road movie in Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead. Co-written by Kiah and his brother Tristan, the story follows an unlikely hero by the name of Barry (Jay Gallagher) who must fight his way through hordes of newly transformed zombies in order to save his sister Brooke (Bianca Bradey) who has been kidnapped by government officials under mysterious circumstances.
Daily Dead recently spoke to Roache-Turner about his experiences collaborating on the indie horror film alongside his brother, how the story of Wyrmwood evolved over time throughout production, the importance of making something more than 'just another zombie movie' and what they've got planned for the sequel in the future.
Thanks so much for chatting today, Kiah. The movie is just fantastic and it's probably one of the best zombie films I've seen in a long time. »

To celebrate the release of gritty war movie Fury, available on Digital HD now and on Blu-ray and DVD this February 23rd from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, we've got an exclusive interview with director David Ayer.
The ensemble cast, led by Brad Pitt, is set in the closing days of WWII as his character leads the battle-hardened crew of a U.S. Sherman tank on a deadly mission behind enemy lines. Fury co-stars Shia Labeouf, Logan Lerman, Michael Peña and Jon Bernthal and here's what Ayer had to say about the process.
Q: In doing your research for the movie, was there anything you learned about World War II that surprised you?
David Ayer: Toward the end of the war, how fanatically the Germans were fighting, pulling kids out of classes and arming them [to fight]. And I had this realization that what our grandparents experienced in that war »

Even if the only movies that Francis Ford Coppola ever made were the three Godfather films, he'd still be a cinematic legend. But he didn't just stop there: The Conversation, The Outsiders, Rumble Fish, Dracula, Apocalypse Now. The list goes on and on. He is, simply put, one of the Greats. That's why Coppola is such a welcome choice for The Director's Chair, a fantastic ongoing series on El Rey Network where Robert Rodriguez chats candidly with filmmakers about the entirety of their careers. In the past he's hosted Guillermo del Toro, Quentin Tarantino and John Carpenter, and they've all resulted in very worthwhile conversations about the realities of being a working artist in Hollywood. Speaking of that, we've got a clip from the upcoming The...

In the summer of 1998, writer-director Mark Christopher's 54, a clumsy cinematic paean to New York's legendary disco club Studio 54, was released to dismal reviews, a lukewarm box office, and then promptly forgotten — at least by most of us. But just last week a director's cut of the film, which starred Ryan Phillippe, Mike Myers, Salma Hayek, Breckin Meyer, and Neve Campbell, was shown at the prestigious Berlin Film Festival. That's the sort of honor usually afforded classics like Apocalypse Now or Once Upon a Time in America, not a film with a 13 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes. So how did this movie wind up getting that honor?When it was released 17 years ago, 54 died quickly, but not exactly of natural causes. The film Christopher originally wrote and shot was a gritty, queer exploration of pre-aids hedonism. However, the studio that released the film, Miramax, then run by »

Exclusive Q&A: It arrived too late to factor in guild and critics awards, but the Clint Eastwood-directed American Sniper has established such a connection with American movie audiences that its dark horse chances of upsetting the Oscar status quo cannot be ignored. It passed Saving Private Ryan to become the highest domestic grossing war movie ever; it even shot past the U.S. gross of Bradley Cooper's previous biggest hit, The Hangover, and trails only The Passion Of The Christ for biggest-ever R-rated domestic grosser. This, for a hard R film about the wartime exploits and horrors faced by the most dangerous sniper in U.S. military history, and the price paid by Chris Kyle, wife Taya, and his fellow soldiers tasked with door to door searches in Sadr City when it was the most dangerous place in Iraq.

Written by Anne-Marie Miéville and Jean-Claude Carrière
Directed by Jean-Luc Godard
France, 1980
Jean-Luc Godard's 1980 feature, Sauve qui peut (la vie), or Every Man for Himself, was something of a return to form for the director (if one can really say Godard ever had a typical form to return to). It was, as he declared, and as is often quoted, his "second first film." As far as his most recent releases were concerned, there was certainly a break from those heavily divisive, politicized, and formally experimental works of the 1970s. This film, comparatively speaking, is indeed more mainstream than that. In its general reliance on narrative, it goes back to Godard's pre-'67 work, with a beginning, middle, and end (even if not always in that order, as he once commented). But it's not quite accurate to say that Every Man for Himself is necessarily »

The halls are starting to hum softly here in Berlin as the European Film Market swings into gear. The first deals were announced yesterday before the event officially opened, with The Weinstein Co notably boarding Im Global's The Man Who Made It Snow. This morning, FilmNation unveiled a series of offshore output deals for titles from Open Road, which will kick off with the Jamie Foxx/Michelle Monaghan-starrer Sleepless Nights.
Though it's not likely to be a frenzy, and with currency concerns in the market internationally, Berlin should see more action in the coming days. Distributors are looking for product for 2016 and beyond, and some memorable buys have emerged here in recent years. In 2014, The Weinstein Company made a record-setting $7M deal for The Imitation Game which has now made about $140M worldwide and has an armful of Oscar nominations to boot.

Stumbling across that list of best-edited films yesterday had me assuming that there might be other nuggets like that out there, and sure enough, there is American Cinematographer's poll of the American Society of Cinematographers membership for the best-shot films ever, which I do recall hearing about at the time. But they did things a little differently. Basically, in 1998, cinematographers were asked for their top picks in two eras: films from 1894-1949 (or the dawn of cinema through the classic era), and then 1950-1997, for a top 50 in each case. Then they followed up 10 years later with another poll focused on the films between 1998 and 2008. Unlike the editors' list, though, ties run absolutely rampant here and allow for way more than 50 films in each era to be cited. I'd love to see what these lists would look like combined, however. I imagine "Citizen Kane," which was on top of the 1894-1949 list, »

I loved my spray tan results! It was also so quick and convenient having them come to my house.
From Our Editors
With their mobile airbrush equipment, California Dreamin' Spray Tanning's technicians give a sun-kissed look to clients who don't even need to leave the house. An experienced staffer applies an even, customized coating of spray to each human canvas, rendering them bronzed after a six- to eight-hour period of darkening. The process even leaves the hallmarks of a natural day at the beach: bathing-suit tan lines and gull feathers tangled in one's hair.

City of license | Huntsville, Ontario |
Branding | Moose FM 105.5 |
Slogan | World Class Rock |
Frequency | 105.5 MHz (FM) |
First air date | 1958 |

CFBK-FM is a Canadian radio station that airs at 105.5 FM in Huntsville, Ontario with an active rock format branded as Moose FM 105.5.
CFBK originally began broadcasting in 1958 as CKAR on the AM band at 590 kHz. The station launched a repeater in Parry Sound known as CKAR-1 the same year. In 1977, CKAR became CFBK. In 1961, CFBK moved to 630 kHz and remained on that frequency, until the station converted to the FM band at 105.5 MHz in September, 1987[1] and the old AM 630 frequency left the air for good on December 31 the same year.
(CKAR was a former callsign of a radio station in Oshawa, Ontario, known today as CKDO, and the CKAR callsign currently belongs to a community radio station in Huntsville known as Hunters Bay Radio 88.7FM and a television station in Armstrong, Ontario, known as CHFD-TV).
Formerly owned by Muskoka-Parry Sound Broadcasting, the station's acquisition by Haliburton Broadcasting Group was approved by the CRTC on February 21, 2008.[2][3]
CFBK's branding was More-FM and changed to the Moose FM branding after the acquisition by the Haliburton Broadcasting Group in 2008 and then changed to New 105.5 FM, Muskoka's Lite Favourites with a new high-powered signal in April 2010. They were rebranded once again as "Moose FM 105.5" in March 2013. In May 2014, the station changed their format to "World Class Rock."
On May 1, 2008 CFBK-FM applied to the CRTC to increase its effective radiated power from 5,000 watts to 43,400 watts [4] and received CRTC approval on June 1, 2009.[5]
On April 23, 2012 Vista Broadcast Group, which owns a number of radio stations in western Canada, announced a deal to acquire Haliburton Broadcasting, in cooperation with Westerkirk Capital.[6] The transaction was approved by the CRTC on October 19, 2012.[7]

I would advise a player that has been playing chess after they reached their 3rd year to read the book. As far as throwing the book away..... it is not that serious. I have seen far worse books in the book store and they were over priced. Seen books that i had over 10 yrs ago and now they are triple the price with just a new cover.

Chorus: Here we go, 'round again. Singing a song about Molly Dee. Far away, I know not where she's the girl who waits for me. My true love's in Memphis town. Pretty little thing names Sally Brown. Travels around on a riverboat. Shares her room with a billy goat! (Chorus) Spending my money, gonna drink it away. I'll start saving on another day. Wasting my time in the Silver Dollar. Pinch them girls just to hear them hollar. (Chorus)

Often eczema washes and cleansers are the worst 'villians' when it come to sensitive skin or eczema, many everyday products can be loaded with potential irritants.
SLS (sodium laureth sulfate) is the most common irritant - this is a harsh detergent ingredient that creates the foam or bubbles in cleansers or eczema washes.
Dermatologists use SLS as a "positive control" in allergy patch tests - It's that irritating.
We don't think that sensitive skin needs bubbles or foam - It's just not worth the irritation. That's why exederm cleansing wash avoids SLS along with other unnecessary chemical additives such as harsh paraben type preservatives.
We believe that eczema, dermatitis and sensitive skin sufferers are different. Eczema sufferers have very sensitive itchy skin and need to avoid even mild irritants whenever possible.
exederm has focused on functionality rather than appearance or smell. The objective is to cleanse the skin, we don't need artificial bubbles and foam to do that.
exederm gently cleanses without stripping away natural moisture and without leaving skin feeling 'tight', red or irritated.

Product Reviews
Ever since I "discovered" this product it has been my only "go to" body wash (esp. for the "sensitive areas") as everything else I have skin reactions to.
I have been through so many others in the past and this is the only one I can tolerate!!
Please dont ever stop making it or change it!
I tell everyone I can about it!
I have tried many other fragrance free and sensitive skin products the exederm and body wash is my favorite because it does not make me itch or scratch I also love the lotion no if only you could make a deodorant. You have a customer for life.

DR Congo: M23 rebels threaten to march on Goma
Mutineer soldiers in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo have threatened to march on the key city of Goma if attacks against civilians in the city do not stop.
One of their leaders said the civilians were being targeted for their alleged allegiance to neighbouring Rwanda.
He denied allegations made by the UN and DR Congo's government that the ethnic Tutsi rebel group was backed by Rwanda.
Kigali also rejects the claim.
Earlier, the UN said peacekeepers were being redeployed to Goma.
The UN's special representative to DR Congo, Roger Meece, said he was determined that the 19,000-strong UN peace force would protect population centres from advancing mutineers.
The rebels - who took up arms in April - named themselves "M23" after a failed peace agreement signed on 23 March three years ago.
They are supporters of renegade General Bosco Ntaganda, who is wanted for war crimes by the International Criminal Court (ICC).
Gen Ntaganda is an ethnic Tutsi - like the majority of Rwanda's leadership - and a recent UN report accused Rwanda of backing the rebels.
'No democracy'The M23 leadership addressed journalists in Bunagana, a town on the border of Uganda which was captured by the rebels last Friday.
Jean-Marie Runiga Rugerero, who described himself as a bishop, said he was now the leader of the M23's political wing.
At the scene
The transit camp close to the border with DR Congo is full to capacity - hundreds of white UNHCR tents are crammed into a space the size of about four football fields. The Ugandan government says there are more than 16,000 people there at the moment - 8,000 arriving after fighting intensified in eastern DR Congo last week. More than 600 Congolese soldiers have also crossed the border after losing a battle with the rebels.
I met Assinate and her five children, who had fled under a hail of gunfire. She is trying to keep her tent clean and tidy, but her mind is taken up with thoughts of the child and husband she left behind in the chaos.
The rebels say they do not want to fight and are calling for negotiations with the government in Kinshasa. But there is a fear that the city of Goma could come under attack.
However, many refugees like Assinate do not give much thought to the M23 rebels and their intentions. All they want is to have their lives back.
He said several other towns that had been seized over the weekend, including the strategic town of Rutshuru, 70km (43 miles) north of Goma, had been handed over to UN peacekeepers.
But he said the rebel withdrawal was dependent on the safety of the civilians.
"Now about Goma, if civilians aren't protected… We M23 will take over the city of Goma and protect the civilians - the Tutsis, the Balega and the Bashi," he said.
He said Congolese civilians were supportive of their cause and were giving them food, and their ammunition came from the captured towns.
"Our intention is to let the international community know that the problems bedevilling this country are not due to interference from neighbouring countries, the problems facing us are caused by ourselves right here in DR Congo," he said.
"There is total disregard and abuse of human rights here in this country. There is no democracy in this country.
"Look at me, I am a bishop. I didn't join M23 because I was jobless. I have a job. Things have to be changed in this country."
A resident of Goma, Paul Gavichi, told the BBC African Service that the Tutsi community was being harassed - he gave examples of Tutsis being forced off buses and attacked, and said there were allegations of rape.
The UN spokesman in Goma, Alexandre Essone, told the BBC's Focus on Africa that the city was quiet and key areas were under the protection of peacekeepers.
He reiterated claims that the M23 had Rwandan backing, saying that their fighters had new uniforms.

An estimated 200,000 people have fled their homes since April, with about 20,000 crossing the border into Uganda and Rwanda.
The BBC's Catherine Byaruhanga on the Ugandan section of the border town of Bunagana says there has been an influx of refugees fleeing the fighting in the last week.
Eastern DR Congo has been plagued by years of fighting.
In 1994, more than a million Rwandan ethnic Hutus crossed the border following the genocide in which some 800,000 people - mostly Tutsis - died.
Rwanda has twice invaded its much larger neighbour, saying it was trying to take action against Hutu rebels based in DR Congo. Uganda also sent troops into DR Congo during the 1997-2003 conflict.

Eating too much makes you fat - official
Metabolism is bunk: Hester Lacey meets the scientists who can prove it
The Dunn Clinical Nutrition Centre, a medical research centre at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, has been analysing the nation's diet for over 60 years. Nutritionists Dr Andrew Prentice and Dr Susan Jebb, both whippet-slender and bubbling with enthusiastic energy, have been investigating the failed slimmer's favourite cop-out: the notion that their metabolism is out of kilter. Discouraged dieters claim the rate at which they convert fuel into energy is sluggish, so that their body insists on layingfood down as fat, however little they eat.
Dr Prentice is in charge of the Calorimeters; three small neat boxlike rooms, each furnished with a bed, a desk, a phone and a television plus video. "We try to make it as comfortable as possible but it is in fact a scientific instrument," he says; sure enough, a fearsome array of tubing and piping leads from each one to a huge winking bank of computers.
In one of the rooms, a plumpish woman is puffing away on an exercise bike; nearby on a plate are carefully weighed (small) rations of fruit cake, ready for tea-time. Volunteers spend five days in the sealed Calorimeter. Fresh air is circulated through the room from the outside, sucked out again, and analysed for oxygen and carbon dioxide levels; from these, the subject's energy output and metabolic rate can be calculated.
Weight levels are analysed by dividing volunteers' weight in kilograms by height in metres to give a figure called the Body Mass Index; a BMI of below 20 is underweight; 20-25 is healthy, 25-30 is overweight, and above 35 is obese. Allowances are generous; someone 1.68 m tall (approx 5' 6") would be considered healthy at any weight between 55 kg and 70 kg (approx 8st 9lbs and 11st 2lbs).
Surprisingly, a high metabolic rate and a high BMI seem to go together. "Whereas most obese people think they have low metabolisms and can't lose weight," Dr Prentice says, "in fact, people who are overweight have a higher basic metabolic rate. When you
become fat, organs like your heart, digestive tract and liver need to be bigger and they cost more energy. And the effort required to carry fat around with you takes energy, so the rate goes up." He has found people who are overweight can use over a third more energy per day than lean people. "This turns on its head the `doctor, it's my metabolism' excuse," he says.
Dr Jebb has also investigated the effect of intermittent prolonged weight-loss and gain on metabolic rate - so-called yo-yo dieting - and found the long-term effects to be negligible.
But if most healthy metabolisms tick over at much the same rate, why are people so many different shapes? The reply has a stern Fifties feel about it. "Lack of control of food intake. We are eating too much." But every supermarket has shelves crammed with low-cal foods, every bookshop has a whole section devoted to diet and health. And, points out Dr Jebb, calorie consumption per head has actually declined by around 700 per head over the past 40 years. "We are eating less than we used to," says Dr Prentice, "but our rates of energy output have gone down even further." This is a sensitive issue. Asking people whether they think it's possible they over-eat and you risk a very dusty answer. They translate this straightforward question into an insult alongthe lines of "Are you a blubbery lard-butt with no self-control?"
"No! It's simply that my fat-to-muscle ratio is wrong," replied one man, mystifyingly.
"I swear I don't. It's a very cruel thing to ask. I never touch sweets or puddings and it seems so unfair that I weigh ten stone," says Maria, 5' 2".
"I'm sure metabolism plays a part. If I ate what my friend Lucy eats I'd turn into a barrage balloon," snorted Suzanne, 25. (Further questioning elicited that Lucy was four inches taller than Suzanne and never touched alcohol, which is extremely fattening.)
Others are more honest. "Yes, I'm afraid I do," says Annabel, 56, 5' 4" and 12 stone. "I love butter, cream, gravy, sauces and pastry. Those are my downfall."
Clare, 28, a successful dieter who has lost three stone and maintained her weight, says, "I'd dieted in the past and thought I couldn't do it because my family are all big. But this time I ignored that excuse, stuck at it, ate less, and it worked. My appetite's a lot less now - I still eat chocolate but just a tiny bit. I must have been eating too much before."
But what about the unfortunates who claim they can't lose a single ounce on a sparrow's diet, and the lucky ones who eat like horses without gaining an ounce? "They are misleading themselves about what they are eating," says the implacable Dr Prentice. "I remember experiments done years ago by Professor Garrow, who is the obesity expert of the medical world - he was at Barts until he retired recently. When people swore they couldn't lose weight they'd be locked in a ward, and when they were forced to stick to a diet the weight piled off in a perfectly predictable way."
Dr Prentice conducted a similar experiment in Cambridge. "We specifically advertised for men who claimed they could eat as much as they wanted without getting fat." The skinny volunteers were tested with a group of overweight men. "We fed them 50 per cent of calories in excess of a normal diet. When force-fed under these conditions they all put on weight. The thin ones gained weight just as fast as the fat ones, and we could detect no special mechanism for burning off calories any faster. And when we underfed them, both groups lost weight at the same rate."
Can it really be true that everyone is completely equal when it comes to losing weight? Not quite. There is one area where some people seem to have a natural advantage - knowing when enough has been eaten. In another Dunn experiment, healthy lean young men ("primordial eating machines," as one researcher calls them) were given yogurt drinks containing varying amounts of fat, then allowed to choose a meal. Afterwards they were all found to have taken in a similar calorie total; those who had been given high-calorie drinks had automatically eaten less. In a similar experiment with overweight volunteers, the meals chosen did not vary according to the calories secretly administered beforehand.
Blaming your well-covered family for your own generous upholstery is not fair, however. "There is a genetic effect, but it's more likely to control fat distribution or control of appetite than anything else," says Dr Prentice. "And obesity has doubled inthe last decade though we all have the same genes as we had before."
And what about all those best-selling diets? In fact, yes, they all work - or none of them do. "They are all packaged differently," says Dr Jebb, "but they all involve calorie reduction, and equally importantly make you think hard about exactly what you are eating. But boredom and deprivation mean they often fail. Simple dietary changes like switching to skimmed milk and low-fat spreads, stopping using fats and oils in cooking, work far better in the long term."
Why are many people so hopeless at gauging and controlling what they consume? "Very many people have a difficult relationship with food," says Dr Prentice. "It completely dominates their lives. The only other comparable question is when you ask people how much alcohol they drink; they underestimate in the same way."
"Anorexia and bulimia are disorders that reach the point where we see them and treat them, but there must be many people who can't be classified in the same way but who do have disorders," adds Dr Jebb.
Dr Prentice, despite his uncompromising stance, believes his message is one of hope - that if you weigh a stone too much, it's simply because you need to change your eating habits, not because there is anything physically wrong with you. "It's essential l y good news," he says. "We knock away these excuses robustly - even brutally - but it's scientists like us that have set up these ideas. Being overweight is not down to metabolism, big bones, hormones or whatever else - the important message is that weig ht is controllable."
WeightWatchers are developing a similar philosophy. "A lot of people believe there is something faulty within their own mechanism," says vice-president Linda Huett, "but people have selective amnesia about what they do eat - and if you're overweight you're very careful about what you eat in public, as others can be critical. If other people then don't think you eat very much it increases your own non-eating fallacy. It's very hard to tell people they eat too much, because often they don't believe t h eydo, and it seems as though you're blaming them for being heavier than they need be. Being `on a diet' is detrimental though - what we aim to do is change people to a healthy eating regime forever. It's true that anyone can lose weight and keep it off.
Tom Sanders, Professor of Nutrition at King's College, London believes that if current trends continue, 25 per cent of the British population could be obese by the year 2000. "People point to metabolic or genetic differences, but it's noticeable that fatpeople tend to have fat dogs." Sanders is an energetic debunker of miracle fast-weight loss diet plans, and the co-author of You Don't Have To Diet, published last year - but recommends reducing calorie and fat intake. "There's no magic about retaining a stable weight. What is needed is small, long-term changes in eating habits. If you go out to lunch, have poultry or fish with vegetables and don't feel you have to go on through the pudding and cheese. Dietary restraint is life-long. You can't get awaywith stuffing your face all the time."

Katherine Swynford, Duchess of Lancaster (also spelled Katharine or Catherine[2]) was the third wife of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, a son of King Edward III. She had been the Duke's lover for many years before their marriage. The couple's children, born before the marriage, were later legitimated during the reign of the Duke's nephew, Richard II, although with the provision that neither they nor their descendants could ever claim the throne of England.
Their descendants were members of the Beaufort family, which played a major role in the Wars of the Roses. Henry VII, who became King of England in 1485, derived his claim to the throne from his mother Margaret Beaufort, who was a great-granddaughter of Gaunt and Katherine Swynford. His legal claim to the throne, however, was by his marriage to Elizabeth of York, eldest daughter of Edward IV, and heir to the throne in the absence of her brothers, Edward V and Richard, Duke of York, known throughout history as the Princes in the Tower.
Katherine was the daughter of Paon de Roet, a herald, and later knight, who was "probably christened as Gilles".[3] She had two sisters, Philippa and Isabel (also called Elizabeth) de Roet, and a brother, Walter. Isabel later became Canoness of the convent of St. Waudru's, Mons, c. 1366. Katherine is generally held to have been his youngest child. However, Alison Weir argues that Philippa was the junior and that both were children of a second marriage.[3] Katherine's sister Philippa, a lady of Queen Philippa's household, married the poet Geoffrey Chaucer.
She was probably born in Hainaut in 1349 or 1350. Katherine's birth date may have been 25 November, as that is the feast day of her patron, St. Catherine of Alexandria.[citation needed] The family returned to England in 1351, and it is likely that Katherine stayed there during her father's continued travels.
In about 1366, at St Clement Danes Church, Westminster, Katherine married "Hugh" Ottes Swynford, a knight from the manor of Kettlethorpe in Lincolnshire, the son of Thomas Swynford by his marriage to Nicole Druel. She had the following children by him: Blanche (born 1 May 1367), Thomas (21 September 1368 – 1432), and possibly Margaret Swynford (born about 1369), later recorded as a nun of the prestigious Barking Abbey nominated by command of King Richard II.
Katherine became attached to the household of John of Gaunt as governess to his daughters Philippa of Lancaster and Elizabeth of Lancaster. The ailing duchess Blanche had Katherine's daughter Blanche (her namesake) placed within her own daughters' chambers and afforded the same luxuries as her daughters; additionally, John of Gaunt stood as godfather to the child.
Some time after Blanche's death in 1369 but before the Duke's second marriage, Katherine and John of Gaunt entered into a love affair that would produce four children for the couple, born out of wedlock but legitimized upon their parents' eventual marriage; this relationship endured lifelong. On 13 January 1396, two years after the death of the Duke's second wife, Infanta Constance of Castile, Katherine and John of Gaunt married in Lincoln Cathedral. Records of their marriage kept in the Tower and elsewhere list: 'John of Ghaunt, Duke of Lancaster, married Katharine daughter of Guyon King of Armes in the time of K. Edward the 3, and Geffrey Chaucer her sister'.
On John of Gaunt's death, Katherine became known as dowager Duchess of Lancaster. She outlived him by four years, dying on 10 May 1403.
Katherine's tomb and that of her daughter, Joan Beaufort, are under a carved-stone canopy in the sanctuary of Lincoln Cathedral. Joan's is the smaller of the two tombs; both were decorated with brass plates — full-length representations of them on the tops, and small shields bearing coats of arms around the sides and on the top — but those were damaged or destroyed in 1644 during the English Civil War. A hurried drawing by William Dugdale records their appearance.
Katherine's children by Hugh Swynford were:
In 1846 Thomas Stapleton suggested that there was a further daughter named Dorothy Swynford, born c. 1366, who married Thomas Thimelby of Poolham near Horncastle, Lincolnshire, Sheriff of Lincolnshire in 1380, but there is no current evidence to support this claim.[3]
Katherine's children by John of Gaunt were:
The descendants of Katherine Swynford and John of Gaunt are significant in English and Scottish history. Their four children had been given the surname "Beaufort" and with the approval of King Richard II and the Pope were legitimated as adults by their parents' marriage in 1396. Despite this, the Beauforts were barred from inheriting the throne of England by a clause in the legitimation act inserted by their half-brother, Henry IV, although modern scholarship disputes the authority of a monarch to alter an existing parliamentary statute on his own authority, without the further approval of Parliament. This provision was later revoked by Edward VI, placing Katherine's descendants (including himself) back within the legitimate line of inheritance; the Tudor dynasty was directly descended from John and Katherine's eldest child, John Beaufort, great-grandfather of Henry VII, who based his claim to the throne on his mother's descent from John of Gaunt, a son of Edward III. John Beaufort also had a daughter named Joan Beaufort, who married James I of Scotland and thus was an ancestress of the House of Stuart.[5] John and Katherine's daughter, Joan Beaufort, was grandmother of the English kings Edward IV and Richard III, whom Henry VII defeated at the Battle of Bosworth; Henry's claim was strengthened by marrying Elizabeth of York, eldest daughter of Edward IV. It was also through Joan Beaufort, Countess of Westmoreland that the sixth queen of Henry VIII, Catherine Parr, descended.[6] John of Gaunt's son — Katherine's stepson Henry of Bolingbroke — became Henry IV after deposing Richard II (who was imprisoned and died in Pontefract Castle, where Katherine's son, Thomas Swynford, was constable and is said to have starved Richard to death for his step-brother). John of Gaunt's daughter by his first marriage to Blanche of Lancaster, Philippa of Lancaster, was great-great-grandmother to Catherine of Aragon, first wife of Henry VIII and mother of Mary I of England. John of Gaunt's child by his second wife Constance, Catherine (or Catalina), was great-grandmother of Catherine of Aragon as well.
Katherine Swynford is the subject of Anya Seton's novel Katherine (published in 1954) and of Alison Weir's 2008 biography Katherine Swynford: The Story of John of Gaunt and his Scandalous Duchess (ISBN 0-224-06321-9). Swynford is also the subject of Jeannette Lucraft's historical biography Katherine Swynford: The History of a Medieval Mistress. This book seeks to establish Swynford as a powerful figure in the politics of fourteenth-century England and an example of a woman's ability to manipulate contemporary social mores for her own interests.
