Reportaż
Krzysztof Toeplitz
Dzieło autora scenariusza do ikonicznego serialu Czterdziestolatek! ,,Hollywood nie jest miejscem na mapie - Hollywood to stan umysłu. () Ta nazwa stała się symbolem, oznaczającym kłębowisko ludzkich nadziei, namiętności, osiągnięć i dramatów, stała się symbolem amerykańskiego filmu i wszystkiego, co w dobrym i złym znaczeniu przyniosło światu to zjawisko. Sprawy, których dotyczą ,,Sensacje filmowe rozgrywają się w Hollywood czasów PRL-u i mają związek nie tylko z historią ,,fabryki snów, ale też karierą, życiem osobistym popularnych aktorów. Teoplitz z właściwym sobie wdziękiem przedstawia ważne fakty z dziejów Hollywood, okraszając je reporterskimi dygresjami na temat np. wystąpień publicznych Charliego Chaplina czy bandy Charlesa Mansona odpowiedzialnej za morderstwo w willi Polańskiego. Lektura przypadnie do gustu temu, kto interesuje się przemysłem filmowym w Hollywood i chciałby poznać ciekawe ploteczki o dawnych gwiazdach srebrnego ekranu.

Sometimes the Dashwood girls do not seem like sisters. Elinor is all calmness and reason, and can be relied upon for practical, common sense opinions. Marianne, on the other hand, is all sensibility, full of passionate and romantic feeling. She has no time for dull common sense - or for middle-aged men of thirty-five, long past the age of marriage. True love can only be felt by the young, of course. And if your heart is broken at the age of seventeen, how can you ever expect to recover from the passionate misery that fills your life, waking and sleeping?
