Howards End
1992 (2009) - Merchant Ivory (Criterion)
Released on Blu-ray Disc on November 3rd, 2009
Also available on
Film Rating: A+
Video (1-20): 19
Audio (1-20): 18
Extras: A
During the 1986-1993 period, Merchant Ivory produced its three most well-known films -
A Room with a View
Howards End
, and
The Remains of the Day
. All are absorbing period pieces with
A Room with a View
being the most intimate and
The Remains of the Day
the most accessible and successful from a box office point of view.
Howards End
is, however, the most fully-rounded and impressive of the three.
It chronicles the intersection of the worlds of the Schlegels (a family of three siblings who are all cultured people immersed in the London intellectual scene) and the Wilcoxes (a family of the aristocracy with business interests in London and property in the country including the romantic home called Howards End). When Henry Wilcox (Anthony Hopkins) loses his wife (Vanessa Redgrave) to illness, he falls in love with Margaret Schlegel (Emma Thompson) who had befriended his wife while the couple was in London at the time of their son's marriage. The happiness of the Henry/Margaret union is complicated by former insurance clerk Leonard Bast (Samuel West) whom Margaret and Helen Schlegel (Helena Bonham Carter) had tried to help, based on a business tip from Henry Wilcox. When Henry's advice proved to be inaccurate, Bast becomes destitute and Helen's efforts to help him and his wife lead to a heightening conflict with her sister and new in-laws.
Set in the very early part of the 20th century, the film is more than an absorbing story set against a faithfully recreated urban and rural England. It effectively mirrors the changing world that was Edwardian England at that time - the gradual loosening of the power of the aristocracy, the rise of the lower classes, the beginnings of the transfer of property from the old moneyed set, and the increasing role of mechanization. The film's depiction of the period is persuasive in its ability to make it not just look right, but feel authentic. The characters have the air of real people living in a real world rather than actors performing on an artificial set. Part of this is due to the superb production design by Luciana Arrighi who justifiably won an Academy Award for her work. Credit is also due to the work of the impressive cast who uniformly breathe life into E.M. Forster's myriad characters. Emma Thompson's work as Margaret centres the film's array of impressive acting performances, just as the character itself is at the core of the whole story. Thompson's Oscar-winning performance is one that builds in intensity and warmth just as the character itself gradually reveals its inner strength and fortitude. The supporting work by Hopkins, Carter, and particularly Redgrave is all superior. For Anthony Hopkins, the impressive characterization of Henry Wilcox was just one of many such in the 1990s, the actor's most impressive decade of work (
Silence of the Lambs
Legends of the Fall
The Edge
Meet Joe Black
The Mask of Zorro
, and others).
Howards End
is a film that draws attention to itself not through flashy action sequences or extensive use of CGI, but in the best way possible - by employing great story telling, well-crafted dialogue, nuanced acting performances, gorgeous cinematography, and sterling production values all marshaled by a director (James Ivory) who values substance over individual style. The film was never anything less than a major production, yet the budget was only $8 million. Major productions that could get away with spending such a low sum nowadays should be so lucky to be one-tenth the film
Howards End
Criterion, which previously released
Howards End
on DVD four years ago via its Home Vision Entertainment subsidiary, has brought the film to Blu-ray with a 2.35:1 HD transfer supervised by cinematographer Tony Pierce-Roberts and approved by director James Ivory. The results are impressive. Colours are vibrant and true; blacks are deep; image sharpness and detail are very good. Scenes in London and in the English countryside are equally impressive. There is light natural film grain evident and no sign of edge effects. Age-related speckles, scratches and other debris have virtually all been excised. The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track is derived from the original 6-track magnetic soundtrack and delivers a rich and subtly enveloping experience. The score by Richard Robbins has never sounded more vibrant or immersive. Dialogue is always clear and is well balanced with the rest of the soundtrack.
The supplement package is basically the same very fine one that was on the 2005 DVD with the addition of a 13-minute HD featurette in which James Ivory reminisces about his now-deceased partner Ismail Merchant. The carry-over extras, now all in HD, include a 42-minute making-of documentary that includes in-depth interviews with Helena Bonham Carter and production designer Luciana Arrighi; a 50-minute 1984 documentary on the history of Merchant Ivory until then; a 9-minute featurette focusing on the production design; a short, vintage behind-the-scenes featurette; and the original theatrical trailer. There a new essay on the film by film critic Kenneth Turan, included on a booklet in the disc's case.
Criterion has done the superb film that is
Howards End
proud in its new Blu-ray edition. Very highly recommended.

Wings of Desire
1987 (2009) - Road Movies Filmproduktion/Argos Films (Criterion)
Released on Blu-ray Disc on November 3rd, 2009
Also available on
Film Rating: A
Video (1-20): 18
Audio (1-20): 16
Extras: A
On a single first viewing of
Wings of Desire
, it is easy to understand how some viewers might be turned off by the film's ethereal nature. Others will be entranced immediately by what director Wim Wenders has accomplished, but many like myself I suspect only come to appreciate fully the film's magic with repeated viewings.
The film spends almost an hour and a half in the mode of observation to begin with, as it follows the movements of two angels through the city of Berlin. Damiel (Bruno Ganz) and Cassiel (Otto Sander) are privy to the thoughts and sounds arising from the hopes and dreams, the successes and failures, and the profound and mundane activities of the city's inhabitants - something the angels have seemingly experienced for all eternity. They empathize; they caress; they silently encourage with sometimes positive and sometimes negative effect. Their attention is equally directed to the young and the old, the successful ones and the failures. But eventually Damiel realizes that he is missing something - the experience of what it's really like to be a flesh and blood human being. His desire is intensified by his observation of a young trapeze artist named Marion (Solveig Dommartin) with whom he eventually falls in love. The possibility of giving up his angelic life for human reality is quite possible, as exemplified by an actor (Peter Falk) who made the same decision many years before and offers positive guidance to Damiel. The film's last half hour documents Damiel's transition to flesh and blood (one paralleled by the film's switch from B&W to colour), and his search for and eventual union with Marion.
The film itself is an entrancing, even inspiring, experience that offers one of the finest observations on film of the human condition. Its compact main cast is uniformly excellent, particularly the close relationship between Damiel and Cassiel as espoused by Ganz and Sander's sympathetic performances. You really believe that if angels exist, they would indeed be beings like those that Ganz and Sander project. Solveig Dommartin's beauty and the wistful way in which she plays Marion are such that the inspiration she raises in Damiel is easy to understand. Peter Falk seems to be providing a form of comic relief at first that seems at odds with the rest of the film, but when you eventually become aware of the true fallen angel nature of his character, you realize how perfectly cast he is the role.
For director Wim Wenders, the film is an ode to Berlin and something he greatly wanted to make after spending more than half a decade in the United States. The process involved in structuring his poem as he did in the end is almost as fascinating as the film itself. Let's just say that seldom have actors had as little to work with from the beginning as they did here, and probably never has a writer (Peter Handke) trod such an unusual road to have his words brought to life. Contributing immeasurably to the film is the superb photography of the legendary Henri Alekan. His work on the film's black and white passages is mesmerizing, and if the colour sequences at the end aren't quite as entrancing, that seems appropriate for it's then that overly flowery exchanges between Damiel and Marion in the film's script let us down just somewhat.
Wings of Desire
is presented on Blu-ray by Criterion with a 1.66:1 HD transfer created from a 35mm interpositive and 35mm internegative. The black and white sequences look superb with crisp images, exacting image detail, and a very impressive grey scale. Film grain is modest and realistic looking. The colour sequences are almost as impressive at least in terms of vibrancy and accuracy, but just don't suggest quite the punch that the black and white sequences do. There is no suggestion of edge effects and the image cleanliness is admirable. The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 soundtrack has been newly created for this release, remastered and remixed from the original 35mm stereo stems under the supervision of the director. The result is a clear, clean sound that offers some modest front separation, but little surround experience. Jurgen Knieper's beguiling music is well conveyed.
The disc offers an impressive suite of supplements including a combination of audio commentary and edited interview featuring Wim Wenders and Peter Falk; a very revealing 43-minute making-of documentary; almost 40 minutes of deleted scenes (with Wenders commentary) and outtakes; a 27-minute featurette on the film's lighting with input from Wenders and Alekan); several shorter featurettes; several photo and stills galleries; and two trailers. Most of the documentaries and featurettes are presented in HD. A 30-page information booklet including a fine essay by film critic Michael Atkinson concludes the package.
Criterion's Blu-ray effort is a definitive release of Wim Wenders'
Wings of Desire
. Highly recommended.

AN ELDERLY gardener's alleged kidnapping ordeal began when he was mowing a woman's lawn at a block of flats in Ferntree Gully and she asked him in for a cup of tea, a court has heard.
Angelo Dinome, 74, agreed to go inside before Rachael Kilpatrick asked him if he would pay her $200 for sex, the court was told yesterday. Mr Dinome had offered $150 and the pair allegedly had sex in the lounge room.
This was the start of an ordeal, according to police, that would end in Mr Dinome being kidnapped, imprisoned and bashed while being driven around the city held at knifepoint.
In a police summary tendered to the Melbourne Magistrates Court, Mr Dinome claimed Kilpatrick, 41, a mother of two, contacted him on February 13, a few days after they had had sex, and asked him to go to her unit to drive her to a friend's house.
Mr Dinome agreed and was invited in when they arrived at the friend's house in Olive Grove, Boronia.
Police said Mr Dinome was greeted there by Rodney Gosland before the front door was closed and locked. Gosland then threatened Mr Dinome with a knife and told him he would be killed if he did not pay them money.
Police said $170 was taken from Mr Dinome's wallet before he was told he had to pay an extra $700 or his family would be contacted and told he had had sex with Kilpatrick.
Dinome admitted he had cash in the boot of his car and handed over $700 to Kilpatrick.
''Kilpatrick then told Dinome that they were 'all square' and she walked back to Gosland's unit,'' the police statement said.
But on March 8, Gosland was allegedly involved in kidnapping Mr Dinome at knifepoint and stealing $200 from him.
Police said several people wearing balaclavas dragged Mr Dinome into his own car in Elsie Street, Boronia.
(The home of missing schoolgirl Siriyakorn ''Bung'' Siriboon, who disappeared while walking to school on June 2, 2011, is in Elsie Street but police have ruled out any link between the man's alleged kidnapping and the 13-year-old's suspected abduction.)
Mr Dinome was allegedly driven to various locations before being dumped in Chirnside Park two hours later. He suffered minor injuries during the ordeal.
Gosland, 41, appeared briefly in court yesterday charged with kidnapping, armed robbery, assault and extortion. Deputy Chief Magistrate Dan Muling remanded him in custody but released Kilpatrick, who was charged with theft, armed robbery and extortion, on bail. Neither has entered a plea to the charges.
A third co-accused, Michael Patrick Murphy, 35, of Ferntree Gully, appeared in court earlier this month. All three will next appear in court on October 24.

The unnamed Harwood Train Yard is a disused railroad yard in Grand Theft Auto: III and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
Very little is known about the Harwood Train Yard. The yard is the terminus of a railroad line connecting Harwood and Portland View to Portland Harbor via a tunnel underneath the district of Saint Mark's, until it was abandoned at an unknown point in time. Following closure, most of the line was removed and a Supa Save/Fidl supermarket was built over part of the old line.
As of 2001, the only remaining structures are a platform and two sidings with some old flatbeds standing on them and resting against some overgrown buffers. A small section of line remains which ends abruptly at the entrance to the tunnel. The player is able to enter the tunnel by driving around the old loading freight platforms and onto the tracks, then turning west into the tunnel, which exits behind the supermarket in Portland Harbor.
- The flatbeds have buffers and coupling hooks, features which are only present on British rolling stock.

text:
I've been married twice. My first wife died in 1986 after less than four years of marriage. I spent the next 18 years or so raising our son and daughter as a single parent. When my daughter finished her freshman year in college in 2004 I married my second wife. In January of this year she decided that our personalities were to different to stay together. Our divorce was final in December 09. I am now looking for a patient, non-obsessive person with a positive outlook on life and a super sense of humor. This person must not sweat the small stuff and wise enough to realize it is all small stuff. We are here for a short time.
I will admit I have made more than my share of mistakes in the name of love. No matter how disappointing they were I have always been able to come away with knowledge and experience I previously did not have.
For the most part the few relations I have had ended in friendship. The ones that did not were not because I did not try.
I am mostly laid back and easy going. Easy to talk to and eager to listen.
I have a motorcycle and ride as much as the weather allows. I love a tree lined country road that goes on forever. I also enjoy watching movies of just about any type.
My fashion style is very casual. Mostly jeans t-shirt with a nice shirt over it. I clean up pretty good. The personality trait that makes me unique is I rarely see things the way others do. I have a very active imagination I do my best work outside the box. I am very fond of lucid dreaming. Sometimes when I wake up I feel like The dream may have been another reality. Then again sometimes I feel that way all day, week,...........
I place a high value on open and honest communication. If there is a problem lets look at all side and not rush to point fingers.
I was not put on this planet to hurt people and I try to stay away from people with a habit of hurting others. Mistakes can be made and feelings can be hurt but if real communication is there which includes listening to problems or revealing unvoiced expectations, things can be worked out. Often I have trouble picking up on other peoples intentions. I can miss a lot of cues and sometimes perceive cues that are not there. I. I haven't given up on love. I know that there is someone out there that would want to to share a life with me. I will continue to search for her.
Even though I attended the same church for over 20 years while the kids were growing up I consider myself more spiritual than religious. Every religion seems to have dogma and that dogma is a "sacred cow". For instance there are some Christians that at one time said it was wrong to dance, play cards, go to movies. Those same religions now find nothing wrong with those activity's.
You cannot defeat temptation by avoiding it you have to look it straight in the eyes and tell it you will not take over my life. Do not get my started on dogma!
I see a new life beginning for me on the horizon. Think about what you want an maybe you will come to reach out and touch someone special. All I ask is to be able to be with someone who will except me as me. Someone who will mean the world to me. I am looking forward to whoever the Lord will send my way. Sometimes I stumble and take some time to regain my balance. But balance in life is what I seek. Balance with a woman I love and adore.
I do consider myself a gentle man. Slow to anger and willing to try new things. I am not judgmental and am open to a wide variety of viewpoints Sometimes its the differences in style that make life more interesting and worthwhile. Open yourself to alternatives. I will look forward to hearing from you. Thanks -D-
Food I like most and will try any.
Movies would again be Science fiction, mysteries, comedies and drama.
TV would be all CSI, NCI, House, Bones, Nova, the Discovery channel.
You would like to be around someone that understands the word LISTEN!
You find what I have written intrigues you and you have a sense of adventure.

In the Cheap Seats
By BOBBY "BUTCH" BURNEY | News-Telegram Sports Editor
May 17, 2007 - In the midst of counting all the money he's bilking Texas Rangers' fans out of, I wonder if Tom Hicks has taken time to look at the American League West standings lately.
He knows where to look - at the cellar, right where the Rangers have been since he's owned them.
King Midas sits on his throne demanding the payment of a first-born child from every Ranger who would dare to step into the Ballp... , Ameri ..., Rangers Stad ... whatever the place is called these days.
A lousy, stinking, pitiful team playing its way into what could become one of the worst seasons in franchise history - which is saying a ton - is what you get when all the owner cares about is green. And we're not talking about grass.
Hicks, who is determined to make his second billion on the backs of Rangers fans, didn't earn money in the business world treating his other companies as he does the Rangers.
Nowhere else would he hire his top two employees without either of them having one shred of experience at their jobs. He did it with the Disastrous Duo - general manager Jon Daniels and manager Ron Washington, aka Boy Blunder and Ron Washed-Out.
Hicks hired Daniels because at 25-years-old, the Boy Blunder came cheap. It didn't matter that he did not have an inkling of what it took to be a GM. Then, they both decided to hire Washington, who had never managed a single team in his life - not at any level. Again, Washington came cheap because he was looking for his first managerial job.
What we've found out is that Ron Washed-Out is all-hat, no-cattle. He can talk, but he can't back it up.
Washington came from the A's, who passed him over four times when hiring new managers. That should have told Daniels something, but obviously the Boy Blunder cannot judge talent.
How would you like to have Chris Young and John Danks in this rotation? How about Kevin Mench, Carlos Lee and Gary Matthews Jr. in the outfield? Rod Barajas at catcher? Adrian Gonzalez at DH? Francisco Cordero and Nick Masset in the bullpen? You could have had all of those if Daniels hadn't either traded or not re-signed them.
But, go ahead and get out to the ball park in droves. While you're buying a ticket, remember that you're not only paying Daniels' and Washington's salaries, but those of "consultant" John Hart and New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez as well.
The Rangers are on a collision course with infamy, and the bus is being driven by the Boy Blunder and Ron Washed-Out. Meanwhile, King Midas counts his money.
REPRESENTING WHOM? - I have no idea whether our state senator, Bob Duell, is a Republican or Democrat. I don't care because it doesn't matter. I do know one thing - he does not have the best interests of public schools in mind.
Duell is recorded by the website www.texasgovernment.info for voting for SB 1943 - that's the bill that would allow all private and parochial schools to be included in the University Interscholastic League. We're not just talking athletics, but debate, one-act play, number sense, etc.
Private schools, by their very existence, recruit players. They limit enrollment. They can deny admission. They don't have to educate any child they don't want to.
Those options are entirely closed - as they should be - to public school systems.
Allowing private schools into the UIL to compete against public schools is unfair and indefensible. They have their own leagues to compete in.
I don't know what other bills Duell has voted on or which way he swings in the political wind. But, in all due respect, he got this one wrong.
STERN'S RIGHT? - Get ready to read something you'll likely never hear me say again - David Stern got this one right.
In suspending the Suns' Amare Stoudemire and Boris Diaw from Game 5 of their playoff series with San Antonio, NBA commissioner Stern did the right thing.
Stoudemire and Diaw came off their bench (22 feet to be exact) at the end of Game 4 when teammate Steve Nash was fouled hard by the Spurs' Robert Horry. While the two Suns didn't get involved in the ensuing rooster match, it doesn't matter.
NBA rules say that if a player leaves the bench area during an altercation, the player will be suspended for a minimum of one game.
I was shocked that Randy Galloway (locally) and Dan Patrick (nationally) were at odds with the commissioner over this. The rule doesn't allow for interpretation, and it shouldn't. You leave the bench, you get suspended. Period.
Patrick even said to the commissioner that because the suspension involved "a star player" like Stoudemire, it should have been ignored. How ridiculous.
Stern did the right thing in applying the rule unilaterally. It's the Suns' own fault for coming off the bench.

A Review of Identity Management in Transsexualism: A Practical Guide to Managing Identity on Paper
by Dallas Denny, M.A.
King of Prussia, PA: Creative Design Services
Review Copyright © 1994 by William A. Henkin
Originally published in Spectator
The first official, surgically-assisted sex-change recorded in Western history took place in Germany, in 1882, when Sophia Hedwig had her external genitals altered and formally became Herman Karl. Early in the 20th century a well-known Danish painter, Einar Wegener, convinced he was really a female, went to Berlin to have his genitals removed and took the name Lili Elbe; Elbe died soon after a second surgery, intended to construct a vagina for her.The first sex-change operation gender specialists sometimes say concerned full transsexualism took place in England, in 1949, when Laura Maud Dillon became Laurence Michael Dillon. And the first sex-change operation most Westerners ever heard about was Christine Jorgensen's, whose 1952 surgery took place in Denmark, and whose transformation from male to female took place in newspapers and magazines throughout the world.
Some of the problems shared by Karl, Elbe, Dillon, Jorgensen, and the thousands of transsexual men and women who have pursued their dreams for wholeness in the final third of this century will be immediately apparent, even to people who never thought about the differences between sex and gender: breasts as well as internal and external genitalia to be built up or removed; body hair to be grown or dispersed; voices to be altered; body contours, posture, gait, carriage, manners, and attitude to be reformed; family, career, relationships, and social conditioning to be utterly reconstructed.
But wholly apart from these obvious difficulties of reconfiguring a life apart, even, from the less obvious psychological strain involved in resolving transsexualism there is a very practical set of problems few people consider who are not confronted with the need to do so. These problems concern the paper trail we all leave behind us that defines us, to a very large degree, for our fellow humans.
From the day we are welcomed to the world with a birth certificate to the day we are welcomed from it with a death certificate, our name and designated sex follow us everywhere. When we attend school, enroll for military service, or visit a doctor or dentist; when we apply for a driver's license, a passport, or a library card; when we go to work, get a social security number, and pay taxes; when we buy insurance, or seek credit with banks, stores, and utility companies; when we register to vote; when we join unions and other professional organizations; when we are called for jury duty or otherwise become involved with lawsuits; when we marry or divorce; when we seek government services; when we calculate our estates; when our children need records of their own -- from birth to death, who we are is defined for others repeatedly by these simple facts: my name is John, I'm a man or boy; my name is Jane, I'm a woman or girl.
Managing our own identity in the world is rarely a problem for most of us, though the tasks impinge on our lives all the time; but for transsexuals it is critical, because identity management determines so completely how we are seen and known by others. A few authors have addressed the subject in the past, but since 1990 only Legal Aspects of Transsexualism, by Sr. Mary Elizabeth, SSE has been indispensible.
Now Dallas Denny has written what amounts to a companion volume to Sr. Mary Elizabeth's book that is also indispensible. Though less complete than Legal Aspects regarding specifics of the law, Identity Management is far more thorough in its consideration of the social implications that attend changing one's identity. Identity Management is also more prescriptive than descriptive, telling people how to achieve their goals as well as what goals needs to be achieved, and to further that end the book contains Appendices with names, addresses, and model forms that are eminently useful. In addition, Identity Management is a delightfully personal book, both because Denny illustrates some of her points with anecdotes from her own gender journey in some unembarrassed detail, and because she is a rather charming writer.
When I moved to Georgia ... I was armed with a Tennessee driver's license identifying me as Dallas Denny. My photo was very androgynous. But the license said I was a male. I filled in the Georgia application and wrote "F" in the box which asked about my sex. The examiner took my old license and began entering information into the computer. I held my breath, hoping she would not notice the "M" on my license, and she must not have, for she said nothing, and when my license came back, it had an "F" on it.
Of course, I might have been okay even if she had noticed. She might have thought it simply an error. If you pass successfully, and if nothing otherwise points out your transsexualism, the wrong sex designation on a document may be looked at as a mistake. It rocks the world of the clerk less to believe a mistake has been made in the paperwork than it does to believe you started out as a member of the other sex.
The world of American transsexualism is changing in profound ways. The first tribal elders remain important figures in fact as well as in myth, but for the most part they have made their impact. The next generation of leaders, now really the gender old guard, is composed of the people who founded important organizations and wrote or edited publications that effected change and defined a movement; many of them are, appropriately, consolidating their gains for themselves and for their community. A new group of movers and shakers is coming to power in a radically altered world, where gender concerns are part of mainstream dialogue.
In this world Dallas Denny is a figure of value, and of growing importance not only because she is founder and director of the American Educational Gender Information Service (AEGIS), publisher of Chrysalis, one of the most important contemporary magazines devoted to gender concerns, and was recently elected to the Board of Directors of the International Foundation for Gender Education. No, Denny is important because she has something important to say, the willingness to say it openly, and the ability to say it in ways other people can hear. Identity Management in Transsexualism makes all these facets of her value clear.
Identity Management in Transsexualism is available through many transgender organizations, or from Creative Design Services, P.O. Box 61263, King of Prussia, PA 19406

Read about Sidney here
Hi, I am writing to those of you who are particularly unsure of whether or not to give up your dog. I had to put my dog, Sidney to sleep, as a result of long term neglect. I have had a very hard time with this decision- I loved him dearly (I still DO love him) but he was in so much pain, I had to let him go.
Sidney had persistent, chronic ear infections and hot spots. He was severely allergic to grains, and had other allergies too. He started getting better, once I adopted him from RAGOM, but by then the years or ear infections and allergies, left pretty much untreated, had taken their toll. He had either brain damage from shaking his head (because his ears hurt so much), or an infection may have attacked his brain. His previous family loved him but they just did not know how to help him. Apparently, they agonized over the decision to give him to us for several years. If RAGOM had gotten him a year ago, possibly even just six months before, we could have helped him heal up, and I would still have him.
Sidney, one week before his death.
He was the most gentle dog, or personality, I have ever met. I adored him, his canine "brother" Chase adored him, and the women who live in the group home that I work in adored him. Please - if you just don't have anything more to give, or just don't know what to do for a dog, please let us know. We have had so many successes in taking terrified, un-socialized, or seriously ill dogs and helped them. And we have a terrific reputation with the seriously silly, busy energetic, young Golden Retriever.
Please let us help them if you can't.

MTV Video Music Awards 2012: Rihanna, Chris Brown Hug It Out (VIDEO)
Though it wasn't televised, MTV cameras caught the former couple sharing a brief, friendly hug after Rihanna took home the coveted award for Video of the Year ("We Found Love").
It was just the latest chance for the former couple to make amends after Brown brutally attacked Rihanna in 2009, an incident that ended their relationship.
In three years' time, they've managed to work on a friendly relationship.
Most recently, Rihanna, 24, admitted to Oprah Winfrey that she met up with Brown, 23, in St. Tropez earlier this year.
During the emotional interview, she also admitted that Brown — with whom Rihanna recorded on her latest CD, Talk That Talk — was the love of her life.
On Thursday, Brown won the award for Best Male Video, for "Turn Up the Music."
Check out Rihanna and Chris Brown's brief embrace, below.

If you watch crime dramas on TV, you'll be familiar with one of the tools that the enterprising detectives usually use to track a suspect's past movements: The phone's GPS unit. "We checked the records from her phone's GPS," a typical piece of dialogue will go, "and it shows she was actually at her boyfriend's apartment at the time, so she couldn't have killed her husband." (The fact that the woman may have simply left her phone there doesn't occur to them. But never mind.)
I was thinking of that when I recently checked the location data that my mobile device was reporting to Google. I had turned on my location history and was curious to see what it showed.
And I was surprised to see that, sometime during the last couple of weeks, I had taken a quick trip to San Diego.
Now, I do admit to a bit of forgetfulness occasionally. But you'd think I'd remember something as, well, memorable as a trip from New York to California.
Especially since it seemed to be an especially quick trip. I checked the time stamps, and according to Google, I was in Manhattan at 5:30 pm and in San Diego at 5:38 pm. Only a TARDIS could have made the trip that quickly, and I'm fairly sure I don't have one parked behind the house. (The trip back took a little longer: I was in San Diego at 6:10 pm and back in Manhattan at 6:26 pm.)
Actually, of course, the truth is that Google's mapping is not perfect -- glitches happen. When I went looking online, I didn't find any half-hour cross-country trips, but I did find some people who had also been misplaced, including one user who complained that his home seemed to be located halfway across the world -- and another who, like me, had been relocated to San Diego.
It would be interesting to find out what causes these problems. (I emailed a contact at Google, but haven't heard back yet.)
Meanwhile, I've got the perfect alibi (at least, perfect for a TV mystery series). I could have, say, swiped my neighbor's lawn mower, and if he wanted to know why he found one of my shoelaces entangled in the blades, I could point out that it couldn't be me -- I was in San Diego.
