Jon invites you to his wedding! But that special night bringing people together, making them happy and entertained, the wedding night, is a bit more special in this film. It’s not the complaining relatives or drunk best friends and no, it’s not the age difference of the couple. Besides having them all, the gimmick of White Night Wedding is hidden in its title; it all happens on June 21st in Iceland, on that night when the sun never sets. Empowered by Nordic humor, the film is directed by the beloved Icelandic director Baltasar Kormákur.
Trailer
Having penetrated the Balkans in the fourteenth century, conquered Constantinople in the fifteenth, and reached the gates of Vienna in the sixteenth, the Ottoman Empire long struck fear into European hearts.
In 1493, exactly 500 years ago, Leonardo da Vinci was finishing the preparations for casting the equestrian monument (4 times life size), which Ludovico il Moro, Duke of Milan commissioned in memory of his father some 12 years earlier.
In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art.
