1943 in film

The year 1943 in film involved some significant events.

Events

  • January 3 - first missing persons telecast (NYC)
  • February 20 - American film studio executives agree to allow the Office of War Information to censor films.
  • November 23 - British Forces Broadcasting Service begins operation
  • December 31 - NYC's Times Square greets Frank Sinatra at Paramount Theater
  • Top grossing films (U.S.)

    Box office numbers were reported at the time as a percentage compared to 'normal' business at each theater. For example, For Whom the Bell Tolls performed at an extraordinary 254% while Thousands Cheer was a hit at 176%. This is why exact dollar grosses for the period are unreliable at best.

  • Stella (yacht)

    The Stella is a 'one-design' Bermuda rig sloop yacht, designed for cruising and racing by the noted yacht designer CR (Kim) Holman in 1959. The design was to the requirements of a customer who had seen the Nordic Folkboat and decided that the English east coast needed a similar vessel but modified for North Sea as opposed to Baltic conditions and a competitive racer on handicap. The prototype: Stella No. 1 La Vie en Rose was built to win the 1959 Burnham (on Crouch) week, which she promptly did. Clinker built of mahogany or larch on oak frames.

    The restoration of Amulet, a Stella class yacht originally built in Fort William in 1964, is described by Bob Orrell in the book Amulet: A Charm Restored and Sailed to the Western Isles.

    Fleets exist in the UK (estimated 100 built) and Australia (approximately 20 built).

  • Stella (Norwegian magazine)

    Stella is a monthly Norwegian women's lifestyle magazine published by Bonnier Media which was launched on 14 March 2011. Its tagline is Indre styrke, ytre stil (inner strength, outstanding style) and its main focus is on beauty, health, fashion, and lifestyle.

    The editor is Lene Vintervoll, who has extensive experience at Dagbladet and Dagens Næringsliv.

    The first issue of Stella had Mia Hundvin on the cover, and the interview with her led to considerable publicity.Stella always features well known Norwegian women on the cover, and the cover interviews are often news in other media.

    The first issue, dated April 2011, had a print run of 130,000. Almost 5,000 copies were sold, a very successful launch for the market.Stella has been Bonnier's main focus since its launch. There is also an online edition, which was launched on 10 March 2011. This has the same editorial team, at Øvre Vollgate 6 in central Oslo.

    Since the magazine's inception, Sigrid Bonde Tusvik has been a regular columnist, Annema Refsnes the regular fitness expert and psychologist Cathrine Moestue the regular expert on psychology.

  • Lubrication theory

    In fluid dynamics, lubrication theory describes the flow of fluids (liquids or gases) in a geometry in which one dimension is significantly smaller than the others. An example is the flow above air hockey tables, where the thickness of the air layer beneath the puck is much smaller than the dimensions of the puck itself.

    Internal flows are those where the fluid is fully bounded. Internal flow lubrication theory has many industrial applications because of its role in the design of fluid bearings. Here a key goal of lubrication theory is to determine the pressure distribution in the fluid volume, and hence the forces on the bearing components. The working fluid in this case is often termed a lubricant.

    Free film lubrication theory is concerned with the case in which one of the surfaces containing the fluid is a free surface. In that case the position of the free surface is itself unknown, and one goal of lubrication theory is then to determine this. Surface tension may then be significant, or even dominant. Issues of wetting and dewetting then arise. For very thin films (thickness less than one micrometre), additional intermolecular forces, such as Van der Waals forces or disjoining forces, may become significant.

    List of film periodicals

    Film periodicals combine discussion of individual films, genres and directors with in-depth considerations of the medium and the conditions of its production and reception. Their articles contrast with film reviewing in newspapers and magazines which principally serve as a consumer guide to movies.
