SUMMARY:Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
DESCRIPTION:5:30pm doors open\, for 6:00pm start (ends 8:05pm) \n\n\n\nU3A Membership Card for entrance (free) – NO booking required \n\n\n\nIn the early 1970s during the Cold War\, the head of British Intelligence\, Control (Sir John Hurt)\, resigns after an operation in Budapest\, Hungary goes badly wrong. It transpires that Control believed one of four senior figures in the service was in fact a Russian Agent\, a mole\, and the Hungaryoperation was an attempt to identify which one it was. George Smiley (Gary Oldman) had been forced into retirement by Control’s departure\, but is asked by a senior government figure to investigate a story told to him by rogue Agent Ricky Tarr (Tom Hardy)\, that there was a mole. Smiley considers that the failure of the Hungary operation and the continuing success of Operation Witchcraft (an apparent source of significant Soviet Intelligence) confirms this\, and takes up the task of finding him. \n\n\n\n.

SUMMARY:Sorolla\, Benlliure and Blasco: Valencia's Greatest Painter\, Sculptor and Writer
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Peter Atkinson \n\n\n\nWe are absolutely delighted to welcome back one of our favourite speakers\, Peter Atkinson\, who is returning to this area for a short time from his new life in Canada and has kindly fitted in one of his superb talks for our members whilst here. \n\n\n\nHis presentation will explore the work and lives of these three men. Each was a brilliant and prolific artist in his field and\, remarkably\, they were all born in the city during a five-year period in the 1860s: painter\, Joaquín Sorolla y Bastide (1863-1923); sculptor\, Mariano Benlliure y Gil (1862-1947); and writer\, Vicente Blasco Ibáñez (1867-1928). They knew each other and\, without being particularly close\, they were friends. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlmost all of Joaquín’s work is oil on canvas and was mostly done outdoors under the Mediterranean sun; he is known as a “painter of light”. He painted people at work and play\, did a lot of landscapes and garden scenes\, and accepted many commissions for portraits. His family (wife and three children) were often his subjects. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMariano had intended to be a painter but\, on a visit to Rome\, the work of Michelangelo inspired him to become a sculptor. While most of his work is bronze\, he was also a gifted chiseller of marble. He produced many busts and close to one hundred monumental works\, often large and complex and mostly in Spain (Valencia and Madrid in particular). \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVicente had the most varied life of the three. With 50 titles\, he was principally a novelist\, the early ones being set around the Albufera lake to the south of Valencia. He also wrote 15 non-fiction books and was a journalist; he founded a newspaper for which he wrote almost a thousand articles. And he was a left-wing\, republican politician: anti-monarchy\, anti-Church\, and anti-landowner. He spent a decade in the Cortes\, the national parliament\, and had three stints in jail. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI hope that as many members as possible will join us to enjoy this excellent speaker.

SUMMARY:Wine Tasting- New Date -Tuesday\, 13th May 2025
DESCRIPTION:Our next Wine Tasting will now be on Tuesday\, 13th May\, when ‘the dynamic duo’\, Domingo and Franco\, will be presenting wines from the Corcovo bodega in Valdepeñas.  This tasting was originally scheduled for 10th April\, but it has come to our attention that the April date falls within the UK Easter school holiday period and many of our regular attendees will not be in Spain at that time.  If they are in Spain\, then it is very likely that their family will be visiting.   We want to ensure that Domingo has a well-attended event\, making his 850 km round trip from Valdepeñas worthwhile. \nWe are not yet open for bookings\, but please make a diary note.  Invitations will be sent to all group members in April. \nIf you wish to join the group\, please email   wine.tasting@u3amoraira-teulada.org

SUMMARY:The Earth is not Flat
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alan Hunton \n\n\n\nAncient civilisations had little understanding of our planet and the general opinion was that it was flat or saucer shaped. All the heavenly bodies appeared to revolve around the Earth. Pythagoras and other Greek philosophers working in Alexandria in Egypt during the first millennium BC disproved the flat Earth theory and within a short period of time had discovered the size of the Earth and Moon and the distances between them. The influence of Aristotle and Ptolemy and the teachings of the Church stalled any further progress and it wasnot until the seventeenth century that Kepler and Galileo could show beyond doubt that the planets went round the Sun using the earliest telescopes as aids.We will also discover that in the 18 th Century\, Nevil Maskelyne found a way of ‘weighing’ the Earth by taking a very large plumb line on a series of rambles in the Scottish Highlands.

Just a scenic 1-hour 15-minute to 1-hour 30-minute drive from Moraira\, the journey itself is a feast for the eyes\, with winding roads leading through valleys\, mountains\, and charming villages.

SUMMARY:Trap
DESCRIPTION:5:30pm doors open\, for 6:00pm start (ends 7:45pm) \n\n\n\nU3A Membership Card for entrance (free) – NO booking required \n\n\n\nEveryone in the city is in a frenzy. Why? Because they’re up and ready to watch a concert performed by famous pop star Lady Raven. Two of her fans\, a man named Cooper and his daughter Riley\, attend the concert with high spirits\, but things slowly begin to change their tune. Amongst the screams ofadoration and sounds of applause\, the concert itself has a hidden identity: a front to fish out an infamous serial killer known as The Butcher. With security cameras rigged\, armies of policemen with weapons at the ready\, and police vehicles surrounding the venue\, will anyone survive their concert experience or is there more to The Butcher than meets the eye?  \n\n\n\n(The plot was inspired by the Washington D.C. “Operation Flagship” sting operation on December 15\, 1985\, which was organised by the U.S. Marshals Service and the Metropolitan Police to lure wanted fugitives to the Washington Convention Centre under the pretence of free tickets. It resulted in 101 arrests\, one of the largest and most successful mass arrests of  fugitives by U.S. law enforcement.)

SUMMARY:Carmen Amaya (1918-1963)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Angela Chantry \n\n\n\nConsidered by many to be the greatest flamenco dancer of all time\, Carmen Amaya gave her own definition to the art of flamenco. Her career began at the age of four and throughout her childhood she performed alongside her father in the taverns and music halls of Barcelona. With the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War in the 1930s she travelled the world and achieved her greatest fame in the Americas. She made films in Hollywood\, appeared on Broadway\, danced for Roosevelt and Churchill\, but always remained true to her gypsy heritage. Flamenco today is deeply indebted to Carmen Amaya – through her artistry and virtuosity she effectively altered the history of flamenco dance forever.

For crumpled English archaeologist Arthur\, just out of jail\, the Chimera looks like the woman he lost\, Beniamina. So\, to help him in his quest\, he reconnects with his wayward crew of tombaroli accomplices – a happy-go-lucky collective of itinerant grave-robbers dreaming of easy wealth who survive by looting Etruscan tombs and fencing the ancient treasures they dig up.

SUMMARY:The WPA: How Artists were Helped by the New Deal
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Rosalind Miranda \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs a lead-up to the New Deal in the USA in the 1930s & some of the artists who were helped by this program\, I will start with some nostalgia about the Roaring Twenties. Even if we didn’t live through those years\, it’s fun to hark back to those wild times. All good things come to an end\, though\, & that decade finished with the start of the Great Depression. As this is too . . . well\, depressing to spend much time on\, we won’t focus on the worst of it. Instead\, we’ll quickly go onto the programs in the US that helped many people get through the hardest of those dreadful times. From the general programs\, we’ll look specifically at those that helped the creative community.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Prepare to be surprised to hear about some artists who later became very famous & wealthy\, but who were glad to receive a paycheck of $23.60 per week during the bad years!

SUMMARY:One Life
DESCRIPTION:5:00pm doors open\, for 5:30pm start (ends 7:45pm) \n\n\n\nU3A Membership Card for entrance (free) – NO booking required \n\n\n\nThe true story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton\, a young London broker who\, in the months leading up to World War II\, rescued 669 predominantly Jewish children from the Nazis. Nicky visited Prague in December 1938 and found families who had fled the rise of the Nazis in Germany and Austria\, living indesperate conditions with little or no shelter and food\, and under threat of Nazi invasion. He immediately realized it was a race against time. How many children could he and the team rescue before the borders closed? Fifty years later\, it’s 1988 and Nicky lives haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to bring to safety in England; always blaming himself for not doing more. It’s not until a live BBC television show\, ‘That’s Life’\, surprises him by introducing him to some surviving children – now adults – that he finally begins to come to terms with the guilt and grief he had carried for five decades.

SUMMARY:Serendipity
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alan Hunton \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSerendipity is a remarkable phenomenon which describes a most beneficial outcome achieved purely by chance. We will see that a significant number of scientific discoveries throughout history have been made by mistake; such that the intended result failed but the unintended consequence was so dramatic and useful to society that the researcher was then awarded a Nobel prize. \n\n\n\nA well-known example is that of the work of Alexander Fleming who had the foresight to realise that the mouldy formation that appeared in a petri dish that he had forgotten to clean could be useful. At the time he was not studying antibiotics but he understood there was potential and penicillin has since saved millions of lives. \n\n\n\nIn this talk we will look at ten different Eureka moments in history and we can ask the question\, do the people who made such discoveries deserve the recognition and reward given that they stumbled upon the outcomes?

SUMMARY:Slumdog Millionaire
DESCRIPTION:5:30pm doors open\, for 6:00pm start (ends 7:55pm) \n\n\n\nU3A Membership Card for entrance (free) – NO booking required \n\n\n\nThe story of Jamal Malik\, an 18 year-old orphan from the slums of Mumbai\, who is about to experience the biggest day of his life. With the whole nation watching\, he is just one question away from winning a staggering 20 million rupees on India’s Kaun Banega Crorepati? (2000) (Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?) But when the show breaks for the night\, police arrest him on suspicion of cheating; how could a street kid know so much? Desperate to prove his innocence\, Jamal tells the story of his life in the slum where he and his brother grew up\, of their adventures together on the road\, of vicious encounters with local gangs\, and of Latika\, the girl he loved and lost. Each chapter of his story reveals the key to the answer to one of the game show’s questions. Each chapter of Jamal’s increasingly layered story reveals where he learned the answers to the show’s seemingly impossible quizzes. But one question remains a mystery: what is this young man with no apparentdesire for riches really doing on the game show? When the new day dawns and Jamal returns to answer the final question\, the Inspector and sixty million viewers are about to find out. At the heart of its storytelling lies the question of how anyone comes to know the things they know about life and love.
