biography:
　　岑勇康于1982年4月28日出生于 San José, Costa Rica, 他的父母都是中国人，从广州搬到了哥斯达黎加。他和他的两个姐妹在那里被抚养长大。大约5、6年后，他们全家搬到了旧金山。Harry说：“我觉得我身上汇集了好多领域的东西。我说汉语和西班牙语。事实上在我学汉语和英语之前我就说西班牙语了，西班牙语是我的第一语言。”同时他坚持保留自己身上属于华人的部分。

　　他开始舞蹈是和他高中一个舞蹈公司团队一起的，当时家里人都不赞成他跳舞，但是岑还是坚持做自己喜欢的事情。而后他把舞蹈生涯带到了加利福尼亚州的旧金山，曾在若干不同的工作室（studios）工作。他在他的舞步中融合了各种不同风格的舞蹈元素，包括霹雳舞，机械舞，电流舞，锁舞，技巧型街舞，还有现代舞（popping，tutting，waving，locking，breaking and also contemporary）, 属于自由舞风（Freestyle）。不过岑勇康并不局限于跳舞，比起启蒙偶像迈克尔·杰克逊，笑星金·凯瑞对他影响更大，所以他也从事演艺事业，表演颇有喜剧色彩。

　　职业生涯

　　岑勇康的事业真正起步是从2002年作为BET’s Comic View里唯一的一位男性舞者出现开始的。此后他继续着他的舞蹈职业生涯。同时他也曾是碧昂斯(Beyoncé)，玛利亚·凯莉(Mariah Carey)，珍妮弗·洛佩兹(Jennifer Lopez)，杰西卡·辛普森(Jessica Simpson)等大牌明星的主要伴舞之一。他曾经在如今非常有名的iPod 商业广告中演绎（跳舞的）剪影(silhouette)--银灰色那个。

　　表演方面，他比较为人们所熟知的是《舞出我人生2》中的Cable一角儿。他现在在美国福克斯（FOX）电视台的热播励志剧《欢乐合唱团》（Glee）中扮演张迈克（Mike Chang），一个后来被拉入欢乐合唱团体的运动员。第一季里他主要以“另一个亚裔”（Other Asian）被观众熟知。第二季里岑勇康更多的出现在电视荧屏上，和剧里同在合唱团中的亚裔哥特女Tina谈恋爱。因为剧中的不俗表现，第三季岑勇康将从客串演员升级为常规演员。

　　2010年他又一次出现在电影舞出我人生系列之《舞出我人生3D》中，饰演Cable。他同时还是美国第一部原创网络舞蹈剧the LXD (Legion of Extraordinary Dancers, 非凡舞团)的编舞之一，共同编舞的还有Christopher Scott等。The LXD目前出到了第二季。LXD于2010年11月末获得了“最佳网络原创剧集奖”。他也是ACDC舞团与LXD舞团成员。LXD舞团曾上奥斯卡颁奖典礼表演。美国FOX电视台的舞蹈PK剧集《舞林争霸》（So You Think You Can Dance）的第六季里LXD舞团的表演，就是Harry Shum Jr.与Christopher Scott的编舞作品。

Marcel Camus

biography:
Marcel Camus (21 April 1912 – 13 January 1982) was a French film director. He is best known for Orfeu Negro (Black Orpheus), which won the Palme d'Or at the 1959 Cannes Film Festival and the 1960 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

Camus was born in Chappes, in the Ardennes département of France. He studied art and intended to become an art teacher. However, World War II interrupted his plans. He spent part of the war in a German prisoner-of-war camp.

On his return from captivity, his uncle, famous novelist, Roland Dorgelès introduced him to several film-makers. Camus assisted filmmakers in France, including Jacques Feyder, Luis Buñuel, and Jacques Becker.

In a famous photo of the French New Wave filmmakers, taken on the steps of the Palais des Festivals in Cannes in 1959, Marcel Camus appears alongside François Truffaut, François Reichenbach, Claude Chabrol, Jacques Doniol-Valcroze, Jean-Luc Godard, Roger Vadim, Jean-Daniel Pollet, Jacques Rozier, Jacques Baratier, Jean Valère, Édouard Molinaro and Robert Hossein.

In 1958, at the suggestion of producer Sacha Gordine, he travelled to Brazil to adapt for the screen, with the help of Jacques Viot, a play by famous poet and diplomat Vinícius de Moraes, Orfeu da Conceição, which became Orfeu Negro. It was a transposition of the love story of Orpheus and Eurydice to the favelas of Rio de Janeiro during Carnival.

The film won over both the general public and a large proportion of the critics. The film was a worldwide success, winning several awards including the Palme d'Or at the 1959 Cannes Film Festival and the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film in 1960.

It introduced Europeans and Americans to Rio, Carnival and bossa nova, with unknown black actors and a tender view of Brazil. American-French actress Marpessa Dawn, who played Eurydice in the film, became the director's wife.

In 1960, Camus made a second Brazilian-themed film, Os Bandeirantes. This adventure film follows a French diamond miner in Brazil who, after being betrayed and left for dead by a friend, embarks on a quest for vengeance but finds himself falling in love with a Brazilian woman along the way.

Twenty years after Orfeu Negro, Camus returned to Brazilian themes for what would prove to be his last film, Bahia (also known as Otalia da Bahia and Os pastores da noite), based on a novel by Brazilian novelist Jorge Amado. These films, however, failed to recapture the success of Orfeu Negro.

In 1976, he returned to the country that fascinated him and his wife, Brazil, to direct Otalia de Bahia, adapted from Jorge Amado's novel Os pastores da noite (Shepherds of the Night).

In 1970, Camus had a last great success with a World War II comedy, Atlantic Wall, starring the well-known French comedian Bourvil. It was the second most popular film in France in 1970, attracting 4 770 962 viewers. Camus ended his career working primarily in television.

Camus married one of the stars of Orfeu Negro, Marpessa Dawn, but they divorced shortly thereafter. He then married another actress from Orfeu Negro, Lourdes de Oliveira. Camus and de Oliveira have two children, including the writer Jean-Christophe Camus.

Camus died in Paris and is buried there in Père Lachaise Cemetery.

Ce diable d'homme

overview:
This devil of a man plunges the viewer into the very heart of the Voltaire whirlwind, that incandescent mind who shook his century. The series follows his meteoric rise, his exiles, his battles and flashes of genius, in a Europe still tightly bound by absolutism. We discover an unbowed, charming, formidable man whose pen makes ministers, kings and fanatics tremble. Between glittering salons, damp prisons and passionate loves, Voltaire crosses the Age of Enlightenment like a meteor. Each episode reveals a confrontation, a flight, a victory wrested through the sheer force of intellect.

Carried by elegant direction and a sweeping, novelistic energy, the series paints a vibrant portrait of a fighter for freedom. A journey into the life of a man who never stopped thinking, loving and provoking.

Molière pour rire et pour pleurer

overview:
Molière pour rire et pour pleurer recounts the life of Jean‑Baptiste Poquelin, from his childhood in an artisan family to his rise as Molière, a central figure of French theatre. The series shows his difficult decision to abandon the family trade and join Madeleine Béjart to found L’Illustre Théâtre, marked by debts and repeated setbacks.

While touring the provinces, he shapes his style and discovers the power of comedy. Back in Paris, he makes a name for himself with Les Précieuses ridicules, but his sharp satires provoke fierce opposition, especially during the Tartuffe scandal. Supported by Louis XIV, he continues despite attacks, literary rivalries, and tensions within his troupe, particularly with Armande Béjart.

The miniseries also follows his growing exhaustion, his determination to perform at any cost, and his final breath after Le Malade imaginaire, the ultimate symbol of an artist who lived — and died — for the stage.

Français

biography:
Marcel Camus est un réalisateur français, né le 21 avril 1912 à Chappes (Ardennes), et mort le 13 janvier 1982 à Paris. Il est surtout connu pour son film Orfeu Negro, succès mondial, palme d'or du Festival de Cannes 1959 et oscar du meilleur film étranger l'année suivante.

Fils d'un instituteur, Marcel Camus étudie aux Beaux-Arts et devient professeur de dessin, dans les Ardennes. Au cours de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il est interné dans un camp de prisonniers en Allemagne. Il découvre le théâtre, montant ses premiers spectacles avec d'autres détenus; il s'y exerce comme décorateur, acteur et metteur en scène. À son retour de captivité, son oncle Roland Dorgelès le présente à plusieurs cinéastes. Il devient alors assistant ou conseiller technique auprès de Luis Buñuel, Alexandre Astruc, André Barsacq, Daniel Gélin et Jacques Becker.

Il réalise son premier long métrage en 1957, adaptant le roman de Jean Hougron Mort en fraude: ce film, qui met en cause la politique française en Indochine sans sombrer dans la passion ou la propagande, est interdit par la censure dans les territoires d'outre-mer.

En 1958, sur une proposition du producteur Sacha Gordine, il se rend au Brésil pour adapter à l'écran, avec l'aide de Jacques Viot, une pièce de théâtre de Vinícius de Moraes, Orfeu da Conceição, qui devient Orfeu Negro. C'est la transposition dans les favelas de Rio de Janeiro et durant le Carnaval de cette ville, des amours d'Orphée et d'Eurydice. Le film séduit à la fois le grand public et une bonne partie de la critique. L’œuvre est un succès mondial, et reçoit plusieurs récompenses dont la palme d'or au Festival de Cannes 1959, et l'oscar du meilleur film étranger en 1960. Elle fait découvrir Rio, le Carnaval et la bossa nova aux Européens et aux Américains, avec des acteurs noirs, inconnus, et un regard tendre sur le Brésil. Marpessa Dawn, interprète dans le film du rôle d'Eurydice, devient l'épouse du réalisateur.

Sur une célèbre photo des cinéastes de la Nouvelle Vague, prise sur les marches du palais des Festivals à Cannes, en cette année 1959, Marcel Camus figure auprès de François Truffaut, François Reichenbach, Claude Chabrol, Jacques Doniol-Valcroze, Jean-Luc Godard, Roger Vadim, Jean-Daniel Pollet, Jacques Rozier, Jacques Baratier, Jean Valère, Édouard Molinaro et Robert Hossein.

Divorcé peu de temps après, il se remarie avec une autre actrice du film Orfeu Negro, Lourdès de Oliveira. Ses réalisations postérieures ont moins de succès. Os Bandeirantes en 1960, réalisé également au Brésil, et L'Oiseau de paradis en 1962, tourné au Cambodge, semblent exploiter la veine de l'exotisme, et n'ont pas le même accueil, même s'ils restent fidèles aux valeurs humanistes de Marcel Camus. De même que Le Chant du monde en 1965, sur le thème de Jean Giono, avec Charles Vanel et Catherine Deneuve. ...
