behind-the-scenes action between desperate press agent Sidney Falco (Tony Curtis) and the ultimate power broker in that long-ago show-biz Manhattan: gossip columnist JJ Hunsecker (Burt Lancaster). Written by Ernest Lehman and Clifford Odets (who based the Hunsecker character on the similarly brutal and power-mad Walter Winchell), the film follows Falco's attempts to promote a client through Hunsecker's column--until he is forced to make a deal with the devil and help Hunsecker ruin a jazz musician who has the nerve to date Hunsecker's sister. Director Alexander MacKendrick and cinematographer James Wong Howe, shooting on location mostly at night, capture this New York demimonde in silky black and white, in which neon and shadows share a scarily symbiotic relationship--a near-match for the poisonous give-and-take between the edgy Curtis and the dismissive Lancaster.--Marshall Fine

Tesco Fabric Freshener
SweetSmell of Success
With a young child in the house and many little accidents it was time we invested in some Fabric Freshener. A lot of fresheners are quite expensive so we thought we would try Tesco?s own, though I wasn?t sure at the time whether it was going to be worth it as sometimes you get what you pay for, though Tesco?s own branded things are quite often alright, so we thought why not.
TESCOS
I am sure you need no real introduction on one of the biggest supermarket retailers, Tescos, though I thought I would let you in to some useless pieces of information that you may one day need in some sort of pub quiz!
Tescos was founded in 1919 with the Tescos own brand products appearing on the shelves in 1924. There are six types of Tescos stores from Tescos Superstores themselves, to Metros, Extra ...
Advantages: a beautiful affordable fragrance Disadvantages: not in with the trendy set.
In 1904 François Coty made his feelings about his product know by announcing " give a woman the best product you can, market it in the perfect bottle in its simplicity yet impeccable taste, ask a reasonable price for it and you will witness the birth of a business the size of which the world has never seen"
He continued to direct his empire until his death in 1934 when in the same year he confessed," one thing has eluded me, I never managed to capture the smell of honeysuckle".
Although this eluded him his company became one of the worlds largest companies. However, this is one perfum that thankfully did not escpae him.
It is thanks to this powerful perfume house that we have the luxury of their
L'aimant Perfume.
L'aimant, means 'the magnet' in French

Advantages: Beautiful Display Disadvantages: Poisonous to cats
This is the time of the year when we start receiving gardening catalogues and we think ? surely it?s too early for this sort of thing. Well, the answer to that is definitely no! February is the time we need to start preparing for the glorious show we all look forward to in our gardens during the summer.
One of the most spectacular of all the flowers is my subject today. There are many kinds of lilies, but the one with which I am most familiar is Lilium Oriental ? the Oriental Lily. This is grown from a bulb and is a Hardy Perennial plant meaning that once you have it, if you take care of it you will have it for life!
It has long been a favourite of mine ? but one I never had much success growing ? until fairly recently. My first real success was when I received five bulbs as a free gift along with another order. I have ...

DVD Description
Director Alexander Mackendrick breaks away from black comedy (THE LADYKILLERS) and goes for full-fledged noir in this spectacular hard-boiled tale of greed, corruption, and brutality. In the flashing neon nighttime of NYC, grasping press agent Sidney Falco (Tony Curtis) trawls the city's toniest nightspots--21,the Elysian--searching for the king of celebrity columnists, J.J. Hunsecker (Burt Lancaster). Falco is on the outs with Hunsecker because he hasn't successfully broken up the romance between Hunsecker's sister, Susie (Susan Harrison), and straitlaced jazz guitarist Steve Dallas (Martin Milner). The all-powerful Hunsecker is punishing Falco's failure by not printing any of the publicist's items. Desperate to make a living, Falco reveals a dirty plan to separate weak-willed Susie from her beau. While disgusted by Falco's slimy trade, the threatening, malicious columnist is determined to keep Susie for himself, so he agrees. In this jazzily scored, seamy nocturnal world, everyone is expendable as Hunsecker pushes for his twisted desires and Falco grasps for success. With their machine-gun dialogue and despicable behavior, Hunsecker and Falco are as dangerous as gangsters. The person who comes out on top when the sun rises, however, is a true surprise.
