Bulawayo Morning Mirror Edition 803 - 2/10/2018

IT AIN'T EASY BEING GREEN

Heres a special thought for all of the Zimbabweans who have left their precious country and are busy re -colonising the rest of the world !!

The jacarandas are blooming !!

The jacaranda on the corner of our road in Suburbs, Bulawayo is always one of the first to bloom and we always anxiously scan the bare boughs daily for the exciting signs of purple. We have an annual vendetta with our Burnside cousins as to whose tree will be the first to burst forth in glorious purple profusion !!

An interesting little fact about the jacarandas is that they were brought in from South America where in fact they flower not once but twice a year !! Go figure that one.

Another interesting thing about Jacarandas is that some folk consider them to be vermin and indeed there have been moves afoot to eradicate them from areas of indigenous trees like the Matopos. Strange idea for environmentalists in a country bordering on the desert. A tree after all, is a tree and one should be grateful for all one can get to my simple mind.

This time of the year in Zimbabwe is always a bit bleak. The country is dry, brown, dusty and untidy. The paper and plastic that has hidden in the grass for the past few months is a lot more noticeable somehow. The winter flowers have gone, the spring flowers are looking tatty and summer has arrived in full force. So we tend to get a bit grumpy and irritable at this time of the year.

I suppose this might be from where the term "browned off" is derived !!

But once the jacarandas arrive and the slightest promise of the rains looms, life takes on a much more rosy tint.

One tends to watch movies made in England and Ireland during this season in Zimbabwe. Movies where there are endless fields of rolling emerald downs, where the mist falls gently on fields of the softest clover and where the women's faces are soft and smooth, creamy and unlined from the harsh African sun...

However the unrelenting browns, khakis and the burnished colours of the African earth will always have the stronger pull for us Africans. I will always remember a holiday we spent touring Ireland when She Who Must Run was just eleven and She Who Must Sing was only a twinkle in her fathers eye !!

He Who Must Be Obeyed (Or HEHOO as is affectionately termed) had just returned from a day of indulgence in the Irish countryside. He was all "Greened Out" after four weeks of unadulterated green grass. Green hedgerows, greens rolling downs, and little green people too.

He had eaten his fill of Irish pub fayre with the odd Guinness and Scrumpy thrown in for good measure ( In those days our holiday allowance would only stretch to a couple of Guinness and one Scrumpy a day perhaps but only if one gave up the after dinner kitkat )

He sat down and turned on BBC One and there before his green eyes, was a documentary narrated by Terry Wogan of all people, on Zimbabwe. It was filmed at the height of winter with all the browns, the sepias, the yellows, the ambers, the oranges of a typical day at Hwange Game reserve, and with typical firmness and reserve , he changed his ticket to return home the very next day.

He had had enough of the soft greens and was suddenly longing, aching for the browns of the land of his birth.....

And so it is in Africa ....its ours, its in our blood, we will always be happier here where the mopani trees stand proud and stark and the knob thorns mass like candy floss along the road sides.

If you need a lift, (you know the sort of lift I mean), the "my soul needs to be cosseted" type of lift, the "my heart is heavy" type of lift, , the "One foot in front of the other" type of lift, and you find the Jacarandas are taking too long to cheer you up, take a drive right now into the country along the Falls Road.

There it is like heaven, all the acacias are in full bloom, masses of creams, yellows and whites. The Knob Thorn, the camel thorn, the hook thorn, the monkey thorn all in full flower, like rows of comfy clouds or acres of cotton candy floss, and too beautiful to be true.

Oh my, its good to be home in Africa in the spring !!

Watchdog !!

THE ACADEMY AND PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO
ALL EVENTS IN THE ROBERT SIBSON HALL

Thursday 4 October at 7.00 p.m. The Firm
Starring Tom Cruise, this adaptation of a John Grisham novel concerns a young, ambitious law student who accepts a handsome bid from a seemingly prestigious Memphis law firm. But when he discovers that the mob runs both the organisation and the lives of its employees, he must devise a plan to save his wife, his career and himself from elimination.
'A taut, suspenseful thriller (more suspenseful than most) with smart characters and great performances, and it stands as the best of Grisham's tales.' [Apollo Guide]
'The result is a top-drawer melodrama, a polished example of commercial movie-making that manages to improve on the original while retaining its best-selling spirit. 5/5. [Los Angeles Times]

Friday 5 October at 7.00 p.m. The Prince and the Composer
The Prince and the Composer is a film presented by Prince Charles about the music and life of Sir Hubert Parry who died a hundred years ago on 7 October 1918. He explores his love of the music of Parry, explaining that there is much more to the composer than Jerusalem and I Was Glad, as he travels around Britain retracing places that were important to the composer and discovering more about the man who was the driving force behind the revival of English music in the early 20th century. After the interval there will be a performance of Dvo ak 'New World' Symphony which Parry conducted at an 'In Memoriam' concert after Dvo ak's death.
'I was completely smitten by it. Partly this was because the music was so good, and partly because there was something oddly touching about Charles's attempts to explain why he admired Parry so much.' [The Telegraph]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available from 6.00 p.m. ($10.00).

Thursday 11 October at 7.00 p.m. Romeo and Juliet
Zeffirelli's famous film of 'Romeo and Juliet' was released fifty years ago on 8 October and needs little in the way of introduction or excuse for showing it again! It remains a classic and 'the solid leads and arresting visuals make a strong case for Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet as the definitive cinematic adaptation of the play.'
'Franco Zeffirelli's "Romeo and Juliet" is a lovely, sensitive, friendly popularization of the play.' [New York Times, 20 May 2003]
'One of the best cinematic versions of Shakespeare and unique for casting leads who were only 17 and 15 respectively, this exquisitely photographed film has a hauntingly beautiful musical score by Nino Rota and Oscar-winning costumes.' [Maltin's 2012 Movie Guide]
A more romantic and realistic rendition of the nature of love, I have never seen. [Internet Guide]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members]

Friday 12 October at 7.00 p.m. Larger than Life / Mahler: Symphony No.5 .
Larger than Life is an intimate portrait of Bernstein's life as a composer, conductor and teacher. Everything he did was full of energy and commitment. Conductors Kent Nagano, Marin Alsop and Gustavo Dudamel share their experiences of working with Bernstein and all three of his children make telling, touching contributions.
Bernstein died on 14 October 1990 and was buried, as he requested, with a copy of Mahler's Fifth Symphony lying across his heart. After the interval, he conducts the Vienna Philharmonic in a superlative performance of that symphony recorded in 1972.
'Far from being some over-eulogistic hagiography, it is a condensed biography of the highest order. It's beautifully structured with judiciously chosen interviewees. His love of Mahler is the cornerstone of the rehearsal sequences included in the film and it is also good to see some excerpts taken from his famous NYPO Young People's concerts.' [MusicWeb International]
'Fiery, demonic and triumphant, this Mahler Fifth is one of the benchmark Bernstein recordings.' [Gramophone]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available from 6.00 p.m. ($10.00).
