His Girl Friday is one of the five greatest dialogue comedies ever made. Howard Hawks had his cast play it at breakneck speed, and audiences hyperventilate trying to finish with one laugh so they can do justice to the four that have accumulated in the meantime. Rosalind Russell, not Hawks' first choice to play Hildy Johnson--the ace newsperson whom demonic editor Walter Burns is trying to keep from quitting and getting married--is triumphant in the part, holding her own as "one of the guys" and creating an enduring feminist icon. Cary Grant's Walter Burns is a force of nature, giving a performance of such concentrated frenzy and diamond brilliance that you owe it to yourself to devote at least one viewing of the movie to watching him alone. But then you have to go back (lucky you) and watch it again for the sake of the press-room gang--Roscoe Karns, Porter Hall, Cliff Edwards, Regis Toomey, Frank Jenks, and others--the kind of ensemble work that gets character actors onto Parnassus. --Richard T Jameson, Amazon.com

To begin painting in watercolour all you need is a few tubes or pans of paint a brush and a sheet of paper. Compared to many other media the process is relatively simple i.e. 'just add water'.

Rather than being a relaxing creative pastime the learning process can be full of frustration. This journey of discovery and creation however can be a real pleasure if carried out in a structured and fun way gradually building up the skills and confidence necessary to create those magical atmospheric effects for which watercolour has no rival. The Learn To Paint series will show you how to get there and at the same time enjoy your journey of discovery and creation. Your tutor is David Bellamy the popular and successful painter and author.
