Description
The Real Tom Thumb History's Smallest Superstar - Documentary - Xvid - Slimoo For about the last five years my TVrips have full or fixed endings. No Squashed credits No Announcer saying what is on next Some people even repost my TVrips as DVDrips ===================== NOTE ===================== I use my upload to post new torrents, I do not re-seed any torrents (Unless I know you via regular commenting) Once 5 people complete I stop seeding ================================================= Michael Grade reveals the extraordinary and utterly unique story of General Tom Thumb, the world's first global show business celebrity. Just 31 inches tall, he went from humble beginnings in America to international superstardom, eventually performing on stage before over 50 million people, including President Lincoln and a devoted Queen Victoria. Yet Tom Thumb didn't choose his own career and his selling point was his disability. Is this story one of success or exploitation? And why do we remain just as fascinated by performers with unusual bodies? As an impresario and lifelong entertainment devotee Michael sets out to follow the remarkable life of Tom Thumb (real name Charles Stratton) from his discovery aged four by the legendary showman PT Barnum to his setting out on the first ever show business world tour. The journey takes him to New York and across snowy New England, then back to the UK to discover how adored Stratton was by the British public. It features exquisite hand-made suits, tiny bespoke carriages and the first ever visit by a film crew to Stratton's specially designed home, complete with miniature staircase. Looking to our own times, Michael meets contemporary entertainers to find out what it's like to be a little person or disabled actor today, and asks whether it's ever right for us to be entertained by people with unusual bodies. Expecting a tale of exploitation, in Stratton Michael eventually discovers the story of man who made the very most of his situation and had a truly unforgettable life. And in the process there is a discovery that rewrites the history of Charles Stratton, suggesting he may have had a long-forgotten baby. =================== What's In This Torrent =================== The Real Tom Thumb - History's Smallest Superstar (90 Minutes) ===================== General ===================== Complete name : The Real Tom Thumb - History's Smallest Superstar.avi Format : AVI Format info : Audio Video Interleave File size : 1.08 GB Duration (ms) : 1h 29mn Total bitrate : 1 727 Kbps Encoded application : VirtualDubMod 1.5.4.1 (build 2178/release) Encoded library : VirtualDubMod build 2178/release ===================== Video ===================== Id : 0 Format : MPEG-4 Visual Format profile : Advanced Simple@L5 Format settings - BVOP : 1 Format settings - QPel : No Format settings - GMC : No warppoints Format settings - Matrix : Custom Codec Id : XVID Codec : XviD Duration (ms) : 1h 29mn Bitrate : 1 528 Kbps Width : 720 pixels Height : 416 pixels Aspect ratio : 1.731 Framerate : 25.000 fps Colorimetry : YUV Colos space : 4:2:0 Bit depth : 8 bits Scan type : Progressive Compression_Mode/String : Lossy Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.204 Stream size : 979 MB (88%) Encoded library : XviD 1.2.1 (UTC 2008-12-04) ===================== Audio ===================== Id : 1 Format : MPEG Audio Format version : Version 1 Format profile : Layer 2 Codec Id : 50 Duration (ms) : 1h 29mn Bitrate mode : Constant Bitrate : 192 Kbps Channel(s) : 2 channels Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz Compression_Mode/String : Lossy Stream size : 123 MB (11%) Alignement : Aligned on interleaves Interleave duration : 80 ms (2.00 video frames) Interleave preload : 504 ms Related Torrents
