Nicholas I & II
The Tales of Nicholas, and His Tragedies
Nicholas I
A son of shadows,
A son of pain,
A son of darkness,
A king he shall become.
A king of death,
A king of sorrow,
A king of martyrdom,
Immortal he shall become.
And I will be his saviour,
I will be his loyal knight,
I will be his right hand,
His king I shall become.
Nicholas II
She possesses the beauty
He does not see,
She has the sweet voice
He does not hear,
"Have you no senses"
Asked her brother,
But he has, oh, he has.
He does see beauty,
He does hear a sweet voice,
That is, from the fine gentleman
That is the lady's brother.
Tragedy, oh! Such tragedy it is
For a young boy to fall in love,
Not with the woman he was supposed to marry,
But with the man he dare not touch,
The man he dare not look at
In a loving way.
Tragedy, oh! Such tragedy is the thing called love.

Spellbound (1945)
As part of my ongoing ambition to be a 1940s screenwriter, I have re-watched Hitchcock’s Spellbound. Of course, he is the master of suspense. During the 1940s and 1950s Hitchcock used his years of experience in the film industry to direct some of the most thrilling and frightening films of the era. They are full of heightened emotions, conflict and twisted plot-lines.
