Harvey Weinstein says a man lent him $350,000 for bail but won't return art used as collateral. He's demanding the return of the other Banksy and six other works — or $1 million. Reich is refusing to hand the remaining Banksy over, along with six other works of art that he'd been holding in case the Banksy works lost value. Robert Hantman, Weinstein's lawyer, said the two men were acquaintances and Reich lent Weinstein the money when he was trying to make bail. The lawsuit seeks the return of whatever Banksy works Reich might still have, as well as the other six works.

(foto) „Nu a fost alegerea mea să fiu sărutată…” Cele mai importante șapte săruturi din istorieDeși piesa spune că un sărut nu este întotdeauna doar un sărut, acesta poate fi politic sau poate avea un impact social puternic. Un sărut poate deveni iconic atunci când este într-un film sau chiar dacă sărutul în sine a fost nedorit. De ziua mondială a sărutului, v-am pregătit mai jos o listă care conține șapte dintre cele mai importante săruturi din istorie. Zimmer însăși a spus într-un interviu oferit Bibliotecii Congresului în 2005: „Nu a fost alegerea mea să fiu sărutată… tipul tocmai a venit și m-a sărutat!”. Sărutul a avut loc când Brejnev a vizitat Berlinul de Est pentru a sărbători cea de-a 30-a aniversare a Republicii Democrate Germane (adică Germania de Est).

☆ Sute de cupluri din SUA au recreat celebra imagine a sărutului imortalizată în 1945 în Times Square

Sute de cupluri au recreat vineri, la New York, imaginea sărutului din Times Square, dintre un soldat din US Navy și o infirmieră, imortalizată la 14 august 1945. Această imagine a fost considerată de-a lungul deceniilor care au urmat drept un simbol al bucuriei provocate de încheierea celui de-al Doilea Război Mondial, transmite agerpres.ro. Fotografia intitulată „V-J Day in Times Square” (V-J fiind prescurtarea de la Victory over Japan, Victoria asupra Japoniei) a fost realizată de Alfred Eisenstaedt imediat după explozia de fericire cu care mulțimea adunată în Times Square a primit vestea capitulării Japoniei, prin care conflagrația mondială a luat sfârșit. Anunțul referitor la sfârșitul războiului a fost primit cu exuberanță. Fotografia făcută chiar atunci a fost publicată o săptămână mai târziu în revista „Life”.
