Ride Lonesome, the fifth film in the "Ranown cycle," is both the best and most representative of the whole series, which has been called "the most remarkable convergence of artistic achievement in the history of low-budget moviemaking." Director Bud Boetticher captures the alienation and loneliness of an America faced with the Cold War and the daily threat of nuclear annihilation. Shot in seventeen days for under a half-million dollars, Ride Lonesome is a masterpiece of cinematic minimalism.Veteran screenwriter Kirk Ellis brilliantly unpacks the themes, narrative, visual language, and editing in this seminal film. In Ride Lonesome Ellis not only shows how this one film embodies a turning point for the Western, but he also explores the unique vision and contributions of director Boetticher and his writing partner Burt Kennedy.

A deep dive into the grit and glamor of America’s favorite criminal couple and the nation’s love affair with guns.On May 23, 1934, two borderline inept but ruthless criminals named Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker met their end in a hail of semiautomatic gunfire on a rural road in the Louisiana backcountry. The duo had terrorized Depression-era Middle America with a string of robberies and a brazen daylight prison escape, killing nearly a dozen police officers along the way.A legend was born. Thirty-two years later, a movie crew gathered on a Warner Bros. studio ranch to re-create the scene of Bonnie and Clyde’s violent demise. It was the end of a difficult shoot. Almost everyone involved knew they were on to something, but getting there had taken a toll on relationships both professional and personal. The result was destined to become what is arguably the landmark film of the New Hollywood era. Nothing like it had ever been attempted anything similar had, in fact, been forbidden by censorship. When the lights finally came up after an agonizing moment of black, Hollywood would never be the same. Almost sixty years since it exploded onto American screens, Bonnie and Clyde still retains the power to shock, amaze, and provoke, as fresh and relevant today as when it was first released in 1967. The movie’s resonance goes well beyond the peerless filmmaking of director Arthur Penn, producer-star Warren Beatty, and their talented team of collaborators. Bonnie and Clyde taps into a dark wellspring in the American psyche. Produced in a time of great social upheaval, with a country divided under a deeply polarizing president, the film addresses troubling questions about our country’s founding myth and its obsession with firearms, questions that remain part of our national debate. They Kill People is the story of the making of Bonnie and Clyde. It is the story of the outlaws whose real lives were anything but glamorous. Most of all, it is the story of how violence and a predilection for firearms became a fundamental part of American identity.

Humans are conceptual beings who naturally create a belief about things. A belief is a quantum. A quantum is a philosophy, a reality that we believe to be true.Your brain is an organ that needs to be trained. It doesnt automatically understand its own nature. It creates a unique reality where perception, size, time, space, past, present, and future are changing from moment to moment. This is done so automatically the brain doesnt realize what it is doing. It might even think that it is experiencing a reality, which is the same for everyone else.The symbol yin-yang is used to represent the Taothe blending of opposites, balance, harmony, and unity. I have added this sign >, which means greater than, so throughout this book, you will see the Tao as > yin-yang. The reason for this is because moral consciousness is not dualistic. It is absolute, and the primary focus of this book is about moral consciousness.If you wish to awaken and be reborn anew day by day in such a way that you are always adding to your character, presence, and wisdom and if you wish to live as a master (one who lives in harmony with his true nature), then this is the book for you.Living masterfully is a rewarding journey that liberates you so you can find life, freedom, and the godliness of nature.

A new kind of world is before us and cannot function effectively or safely without a collective thinking process that promotes unity, harmony, and understanding. Isolation, separation, extreme dualism are no longer valid, timely, appropriate, logical, or safe. The belief that humanistic studies and personal growth do not apply to the modern world is no longer scientific, philosophically correct, nor is it spiritually valid or humane. The old concept of divide and conquer by becoming more superior must be replaced with a new concept of unite and conquer by becoming more fully humane. Together, we become more; divided, we become less. Together, we prepare for a new humane renaissance; divided, we prepare for endless problematic conflicts of all kinds. There is no choice; we purposely move toward world peace or away from it.We are at the crossroads. It is now time to intervene with our evolutionary process and learn how to live in harmony with the full scope of our humane nature.This book describeshow to become more fully humane,the world peace mission statement,the world peace flag, andthe human equation.

We, the people of the United States, have cowed down to the wrong ideas set forth by the wrong people for the last decade. Foolishness does not bring peace, and low morals do not bring happiness. Freedom of expression without restraint brings chaos, not personal abundance. America is an experiment in human freedom, and as in any experiment, there are mistakes. We have made mistakes, and it is time to correct our errors. Groups and individuals have their own opinions, ceremonies, prejudices, and passions. But all men and groups who serve justice must at times unite to face a common enemy. Without hesitation, men from all religions, all walks of life, and the rich and poor have joined under the American flag against those who threatened justice. A new enemy now exists: That enemy is moral decay. Moral decay is as sharp as any sword. Morals, values, and attitudes must be learned. Freedom and justice can and must be won. This cannot be done by laws or by political promises. This must be done by the people. Many have stated that science has advanced too far, and we need a program to correct the social disunity. This program now exists, and it is a reality. Freedom for America is the organization with such a program. America must not hide from truth, from wisdom, and from righteousness for these are her weapons. If her people are educated in moral law, they will be patriotic. The philosophically wise will be American wise.
