TA:MOU = Themed Anniversary: Moving On Up
The Rules
Each Tuesday a theme will be decided based on the Anniversary of some significant event. All you have to do is trawl your reviews for any that relate to that event and post them here with a link.
You can post as many as you wish, so long as either the film or your review clearly relates to the theme. You can only post during the week of the current TA:MOU.
You don't have to say you voted unless you really want to - but you are expected to visit all the links posted.
ON THIS DAY: 25 June
TA:MOU remembers brainy gals and slapheads.
> in 1678 Elena Cornaro Piscopia became the first woman awarded a PhD upon her graduation from the University of Padua. In her honor, let's see your fwfrs for films that feature academically qualified women - any country, any era, any genre. But their qualifications must be central to the plot or theme.
> before 1982 all military recruits in the Greek army had to have their heads shaved. To mark their passing, pick a notable baldy-man and show us your fwfrs for his films. [I'd say "or baldy-woman", but I suspect that limits your choices!]
Or
one of the these Birthday peeps might tempt you:
