Il est né un 25 décembre à Bethléem. Sa mère s'appelle Marie, et elle était vierge quand elle est tombée enceinte. Il a grandi à Nazareth, en Judée-Samarie. Il a diffusé un message d'amour et ressemblé des disciples. Puis il a été trahi par l'un d'eux, arrêté, torturé et crucifié. Avant de ressusciter, trois jours plus tard. Voilà les grandes lignes de la vie de Jésus. Du moins telle que la Bible la raconte.Mais, depuis plus de trois siècles, les historiens tentent aussi de percer le mystère entourant Jésus, de découvrir l'homme, le personnage historique derrière le récit religieux. Selon les récits et les époques dans lesquels ils s'inscrivent, il a donc été un prophète, un leader politique romantique ou… un mythe.Plus de deux mille ans après sa mort, comment expliquer que les historiens aient encore des choses à dire à son propos ? De quelles sources disposent-ils et peuvent-ils porter un regard neutre sur ce sujet d'étude qui fait l'objet de tant de passions ?Réponse dans cet épisode de « l'Heure du Monde » avec Gaétan Supertino, journaliste au Monde des religions.Un épisode d'Adélaïde Tenaglia. Réalisation : Amandine Robillard. Présentation : Jean-Guillaume Santi. Rédaction en chef : Adèle Ponticelli. Dans cet épisode, extrait du film Monty Python : La Vie de Brian, de Terry Jones, sorti en 1979 ; de la série Jésus de Nazareth, de Franco Zeffirelli, sortie en 1977 ; du film Da Vinci Code, de Ron Howard, sorti en 2006.Cet épisode a été diffusé le 18 avril 2025.---Pour soutenir "L'Heure du Monde" et notre rédaction, abonnez-vous sur abopodcast.lemonde.fr Hébergé par Acast.

What's more Christmas-y than celebrating one's birthday? Brian just so happens to share the same birthday with someone else we might know, on Christmas Day, many, many moons ago. It seems almost to explain what this film is, because who hasn't seen this and enjoyed it? I mean, it was controversial upon its release and was banned by many councils, even to this day, but who hasn't heard or seen LIFE OF BRIAN at this point? Regardless, you've heard of MONTY PYTHON, and this is easily their best film. This film gave us "big nose", the "ex leper", and "what have the Romans ever done for us?" Do yourself a favor and watch this. It's an absolute treat for this Festive Season!

In episode 240 of America Adapts, host Doug Parsons talks with reporter Terry Jones about the tangled story behind America's first federally funded climate relocation on Louisiana's Isle de Jean Charles. Once hailed as a model for how the nation could move entire communities out of harm's way, the project became mired in politics, confusion, and broken promises. Terry shares what he uncovered on the ground — from residents who never wanted to leave, to state officials unprepared for the task, to the bigger question of whether the U.S. is truly ready for managed retreat. This episode clears up the confusion, revealing what really happened, why it matters, and what the rest of the country can learn before the next community faces these climate impacts.  Transcript for this episode here.

Il est né un 25 décembre à Bethléem. Sa mère s'appelle Marie, et elle était vierge quand elle est tombée enceinte. Il a grandi à Nazareth, en Judée-Samarie. Il a diffusé un message d'amour et ressemblé des disciples. Puis il a été trahi par l'un d'eux, arrêté, torturé et crucifié. Avant de ressusciter, trois jours plus tard. Voilà les grandes lignes de la vie de Jésus. Du moins telle que la Bible la raconte.Mais, depuis plus de trois siècles, les historiens tentent aussi de percer le mystère entourant Jésus, de découvrir l'homme, le personnage historique derrière le récit religieux. Selon les récits et les époques dans lesquels ils s'inscrivent, il a donc été un prophète, un leader politique romantique ou… un mythe.Plus de deux mille ans après sa mort, comment expliquer que les historiens aient encore des choses à dire à son propos ?

One of Dave's childhood favorites, despite a fair sledding from mates, is up for scrutiny this week! And with a 16 year old Jennifer Connely heading up against a middle aged pop star, what could possibly go wrong? directed by Jim Henson, was an ambitious blend of puppetry, live-action, and cutting-edge visual effects for its time. The film was a collaboration between Henson and executive producer George Lucas, with a screenplay by Monty Python's Terry Jones. Conceptual artist Brian Froud, known for his work on The Dark Crystal, played a significant role in designing the fantastical creatures and the world of the labyrinth itself. The movie's central character, Jareth the Goblin King, was brought to life by David Bowie, who also contributed original songs to the soundtrack, adding a surreal, musical dimension to the film. With a cast that included young Jennifer Connelly and over 100 puppets, the production involved complex puppetry, animatronics, and special effects to bring the magical world to life. The film was shot primarily at Elstree Studios in the UK, where elaborate sets were built to depict the vast, dreamlike maze. Henson's Creature Shop faced technical challenges, especially with creating characters like Hoggle, a puppet requiring multiple operators to control its facial expressions and movements. Though the film was not a box office success upon release, Labyrinth gained a devoted cult following over the years, praised for its imaginative design, memorable characters, and Bowie's iconic performance. The film's mix of fantasy, music, and pioneering practical effects has since solidified its place as a beloved classic in fantasy cinema.

When her wish is granted and Jareth kidnaps Toby, Sarah has 13 hours to navigate a vast, magical labyrinth to save him before he is turned into a goblin. Along the way, she encounters a host of strange creatures and overcomes various challenges, learning about bravery and friendship. As she gets closer to Jareth's castle, Sarah must confront her own fears and insecurities to rescue Toby and return home. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thevhsstrikesback/support
