O Rock Underground De São Gonçalo E Suas Praças: Centralidades Em Disputa Na Construção De Uma Cena Cultural.
O rock é um movimento cultural com mais de sessenta anos de existência. Nesse longo caminho já influenciou e foi também influenciado pelas dinâmicas do capitalismo urbano. Em nosso trabalho focaremos em como o rock se constituiu como movimento cultural dentro das cidades, quais os espaços que ele disputa e como seus participantes influenciam na construção do espaço geográfico. Nosso foco empírico foi o rock underground na cidade de São Gonçalo e, assim, nos utilizamos do conceito de território-rede para melhor compreender as dinâmicas fomentadas por e a partir do rock, com atenção especial para o importante conflito de uso nas praças Chico Mendes e Zé Garoto. A centralidade exposta por essas duas praças a partir da territorialidade do rock underground na construção de sua cena musical também será abordada em nosso trabalho.

Gunmen and Gangsters
Gangsters such as Al Capone and Lucky Luciano were considered by many people to be the most exciting personalities of the 1920s and 1930s. The public was hungry for press coverage about these mysterious and dangerous men. Most reports about them were sketchy, as the reporters did not want to get on the bad side of the racket bosses. Hollywood's response to the public's fascination was to portray the lives of gangsters on the movie screen, using actors such as Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, and Edward G. Robinson. Perhaps surprisingly, these men received not-so-favorable reviews from the Academy Award voters, and as their popularity grew with the public, censorship dictated other actors be brought in to play the roles. That's what this book is about--the personal and professional lives of William Bendix, Charles Bickford, Ward Bond, Broderick Crawford, Brian Donlevy, Paul Douglas, William Gargan, Barton MacLane, and Lloyd Nolan, second-string actors who replaced the big names and did a memorable job. A filmography is supplied for each actor.
