The results of our Quiz are sorrowful. Nobody answered properly all the questions: either the task was very difficult, or the prize was so negligible! May be - the first and the second together!

      However we recommend you to read this Page, because we are sure, you wil find there a lot of interesting information! And we are sure, Timothy Dalton's admirers simply must read the complete answer to the first question with the additional Page!

The Correct Answers

      1. On the Page "February" of our Calendar you hear the beginning of the First Part of the Fourth Symphony, composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (F minor, Opus 36(1)). We suppose, that the history of its creation will be very interesting for our readers and this is why we placed it on the separate Page!

      2. All the photoes of our Calendar are from recent Timpthy's film Time Share.

      3. Rex Harrison and Julie Andrews were the first performers of leading parts in F.Lowew's musical "My Fair Lady" on Broadwaw (1956) and in London (1958). The performance was given during two years on Broadway. Julie Andrews was Tomy awarded for this one in 1957. Later, during 16 months the performance had a success on London stage.

      This is why the choice of Worner Brothers Studio, desired to see in the leading role Audrey Hapbern, who couldn't sing her voice part as a professional singer, was a surprise for many admirers of music. However, Audrew has done her part brilliantly and settle all the hesitations of her and Julie's admirers. She was especially magnificent in the scenes, where Eliza becomes a real lady. Nonetheless she couldn't achieve the Oscar award that time, though her partner Rex Harrison has got it deservedly and the film itself has got 12 nominations and 8 awards - the sympathies of the actor's part of the jury were on the side of Julie, who has got her golden statuette this year for her participation and performance the role of Mary Poppins in cognominal film.

      4. In the picture from the Page "September" we use photoes from the two popular American films "The Untouchable", Paramount Pictures, 1987, and "The Fugitive", Warner Brothers, 1994. The leading roles were performed by Kevin Kerstner, Robert De Niro, and Sean Connery has got his Oscar award for his role of a policeman here as the best supporting actor in 1989. In the second film the leading part was performed by Harrison Ford. There are his ankles with shackles around in the bottom of our picture. And Sela Ward was his partner in the episodic role of his wife, who has come to a tragic end. This actress is well-known to Timothy Dalton's admirers, because she was his co-starring partner in the movie "Passion's Way".

      5. Our picture from the Page "October" shows three plays written by A.P.Chechov: "The Seagull" (as the emblem of the Moscow Art Theatre), "Three Sisters" and "Cherry Orchard".

      The roles of three sisters were performed in London's Queen Theatre under direction of Robert Sturua by Lynn (Masha), Vanessa (Olga) and Jemma Redgrave (Irina) in 1990. Here you can see the photoes from this performance, which were taken by us from Lynn Redgrave's Official Page. Jemma is Lynn's and Vanessa's niece.

      On the photo in the left lower corner of our picture in Calendar you see Lynn Redgrave as Ranevskaya in "Cherry Orchid". Please, visit the wonderful Lynn Redgrave's Official Web site, where the carefully chosen illustrations and contemporary design support very well the brief and purposeful narrative not only about Lynn's creativity, but the history of whole family of actors - Redgraves!

      Unfortunately, Timothy Dalton doesn't follow the example of his former lady-partners on stage and on the screen - he seems to be completely forgotten about theatre!

      6. On the Page "November" you see the portrait of Eric Schmitt, a French dramatist, the author of play "Enigma Variations" . To know more about him, please, visit Eric Schmitt's special Web site! We do hope, you will apprecuate its information and original design!
