По всей видимости Леонардо ди Каприо нравится играть не только гетеросексуальные роли. Вслед за фильмом с отчасти гомосексуальной тематикой "Дневник баскетболиста", Лео исполнил роль поэта Артюра Рембо, влюбленного в мужчину "Полное затмение", а затем роль Эгдара Гувера, легендарного директора ФБР с гомосексуальной ориентацией. Теперь же жизнь знаменитого английского математика Алана Тьюринга станет предметом исследования в байопике

A fleeting screen role won her the attention of director Irving Pichel, who gave her her first major role, at the age of seven, in Tomorrow is Forever, opposite Orson Welles.

Her tragic demise prompted a media frenzy and her funeral was attended by stars from across the globe.

Small wonder. Wood was no ordinary jobbing actress: her career had seen her rise from the child star of one of Hollywood's most beloved Christmas hits to the Oscar-nominated starlet of Rebel Without A Cause and West Side Story.

Born in 1938 in San Francisco to Russian parents, Natalia Zakharenko was the middle child of an ambitious mother.

The role prompted her mother to move the entire family to Los Angeles against her father's will. But her instincts proved correct. Welles later remembered the young Natalia as "so good, she was terrifying".

Britain's reputation as one of the world's great ballet nations has been swiftly won, as home-grown classical ballet started here only in the 1930s. Yet within 30 years the Royal Ballet was recognised as the equal of the greatest and oldest companies in France, Russia or Italy. Now the extraordinary range in British dance from classical ballet to contemporary dance-theatre, from experimental new choreography in small spaces to mass arena-ballet spectaculars, can't be matched in the US or Russia, where nothing like the Arts Council subsidy system exists to encourage new work.

Fonteyn_OndineWhile foreign stars have long been adored by British audiences, from Anna Pavlova and Rudolf Nureyev to Sylvie Guillem, the British ballet and dance movements were offspring of the movement towards a national subsidised theatre. This was first activated in the Thirties by Lilian Baylis and Ninette de Valois in a tie-up between the Old Vic and Sadler's Wells, and led to the founding of what became the Royal Ballet, English National Opera and the National Theatre. From 1926 Marie Rambert's Ballet Club operated out of the tiny Mercury Theatre, Notting Hill, a creative crucible producing early stars such as choreographer Frederick Ashton and ballerina Alicia Markova and which eventually grew into Ballet Rambert and today's Rambert Dance. From all these roots developed Sadlers Wells Theatre Ballet (now Birmingham Royal Ballet), London Festival Ballet (now English National Ballet), and Western Theatre Ballet which became Scottish Ballet.
