Film7.1DramTarihFrensisken Tarikatı'nın kurucusu. İtalyalı Aziz St. Francesco. "Erkek kardeş güneş, kız kardeş ay, erkek kardeş rüzgar ve kız kardeş nefes" diye betimlediği doğadaki görkem, azizin sahip olduğu varsıllığının ötesine geçer. Düşünmeyi bırakıp bir tercih yaptığında ise yasamış olduğu Ortaçağ'da çevresi tarafından aşağılanmasına ve deli olarak anılmasına neden olur. Onlara göre sefil, kendisine göre sadelik diye değerlendirdiği yaşam biçimi ve başarmak istediği şeyler, ölümünden sonra onu azizlik mertebesine taşır. Anlatmak istedikleri yaşadığı dönemde sonradan idrak edilir ve Papa tarafından takdirle karşılanır. Biyografik filmde, St. Damian Kilisesinin onarılması, Papa Innocence ile görüşmesi gibi Assisi'linin hayatında önemli olan hadiselerin anlatımının yanında, filmin görselliği ve müzikleri de azize yaraşır biçimde huzuru yansıtıyor, belki yaşadığı acılara daha fazla odaklanılabilir ve drama daha fazla ağırlık verilebilirdi ancak, film böylesi huzurlu bir anlatımdan mahrum kalırdı.

Dizi7.2DramSergeant Cork is a British detective television series which first aired between 1963 and 1968 on ITV. It was a police procedural show that followed the efforts of two police officers and their battle against crime in Victorian London. In all 66 hour-long episodes were aired during the five-year run, although the last episode was not broadcast until January 1968, 16 months after the others. Journalist Tom Sutcliffe has credited it as a first example of the use of the Victorian-era policeman in a television crime series. A 1969 review in The Age opined that rather than suspense, the strengths of the series were its "excellent period settings and wonderfully thick pea-soupers" which "add up to splendid evocative stuff", as well as the performance of star John Barrie. At no time during the whole series is Sergeant Cork's first name given.
