简介：Secrets of the Dinosaur Mummy concerns “Leonardo,” a remarkably well-preserved juvenile Brachylophosaurus that lived (and died) 77 million years ago, during the late Cretaceous period. Discovered in Montana in 2000, Leonardo is pretty much intact (except for his lower back and tail), although the process of petrification has amplified his presumed weight of 2,000 pounds into a full six tons.Secrets has the usual CGI interludes of roaming herds of Brachylophosauruses (which are convincing and tastefully done), but its main focus is on the techniques used to explore Leonardo’s viscera. Since there was no question of cracking the fossil open to reveal its insides (which would have resulted in considerable damage), the research team–led by rogue paleontologist Robert Bakker–had to rely on increasingly powerful imaging techniques.It’s amusing to see the heavy armament that’s wheeled in: first, high-intensity X-rays, then even more powerful gamma rays, then a blast of cobalt radiation at NASA’s Johnson Space Center (which required the evacuation of the entire complex). So what do these scans accomplish? Well, it’s not giving anything away to reveal that, yes, scientists have been able to observe anatomical details in Leonardo’s mummy that have not yet been seen in any other dinosaur fossils. It seems that Leonardo had a bird-like crop in its neck (which helped it to digest food), a more extensive beak than previously realized, and an intricate array of different-sized scales on its head, back, underbelly and legs (which had the biggest scales of all, presumably to protect them against the thick underbrush).The research team was also able to determine how Leonardo died (I won’t reveal the details here, but suffice it to say that he had a very bad, awful, not-good dinosaur day), and what he ate in the last few days before he met his demise. In fact, this last nugget of information may be the most important of all, since the pollen and leaves found in Leonardo’s gut provide valuable information about the ecosystem of the western United States in the late Cretaceous.

简介：Although honors came late in life to Jorge Luis Borges, his unique worldview had begun to emerge even as a child. This program examines the life and literary career of the charismatic Argentine writer, as well as the thematic, symbolic, and mythological underpinnings of his works. Archival interviews with Borges; his mother, Leonor Acevedo de Borges; his second wife, Maria Kodama; and collaborator Adolfo Bioy Casares provide insights into the private Borges, while readings from “The Mirrors,” “Dreamtigers,” “The Plot,” “The South,” “The Aleph,” and other landmarks of Latin American fiction demonstrate his virtuosity as a transformer of experiences.—–Reviewed by Orlando Archibeque, Auraria Library, University of Colorado at DenverJorge Luis Borges, Argentina’s most famous and beloved literary figure, was born in 1899. On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of his birth, many scholars and filmmakers took the opportunity to look back at the life and writings of this extraordinary short story writer, essayist, and poet. He is the winner of 46 national and international literary prizes, though the Nobel has eluded him. Numerous monographs in many languages about Borges have been released since 1999, as well as a number of documentaries.This documentary’s major strength (others would say its major weakness) is that it is a bit of everything — part biography, part literary criticism, part hero-worship, part book reading, and part psychology. The subti
tle “Mirror Man” is a reference to the frequent occurrence of mirrors in his works. One of the most interesting subjects in this video is a discussion of Borges’s fascination with and fear of mirrors during his formative years, and how these fears are manifested in his writings.Archival footage gives a flavor of the significant historic events in 20th century Argentina and their influences on Borges from childhood until his death in 1986. Still photographs from a variety of repositories and personal collections bring to life the young Borges, who began writing seriously at the very early age of 9. The filmmaker, Philippe Molins, also makes use of dramatic reenactments showing Borges as a child and young adult. Additionally, archival interviews with Borges and with significant others, including his second wife, Mar’a Kodama Borges (an Argentinian of Japanese descent), his mother, Leonor Acevedo de Borges, and friend and author-collaborator Adolfo Bioy Casares, provide important insights into the life and literature of Borges in his middle- and later-years. The interviews with his second wife and mother are the most captivating sequences in the video. Finally, at appropriate times in the video, there are brief readings from both well known and lesser-known works.The documentary’s technical qualities are superb, particularly because of the difficulties involved in incorporating so many different techniques in the production. This reviewer was especially impressed with the audio, which complement the visual aspects very well. The female narrator’s voice is strong and melodious; the male’s voice used in the selected readings of literary works is deep and pleasantly resonant. The video is mostly in English; when the interviewees speak in Spanish, there is an English voiceover. 时间：2023-11-22 02:00:33
