However, Ellis, Ed Tom’s cousin, provides a foil to this, telling Ed Tom and the audience that the evil has always been there, it just comes in different forms. Positioned as a remnant of a bygone era, he embodies the central philosophical theme of the novel and film, that the world is changing and is bringing with it a new form of evil. Tommy Lee Jones’ portrayal of Sheriff Ed Tom Bell, perfectly brings McCarthy’s character to life.

The book's title page names Carolyn Keene as its author, but the Stratemeyer Syndicate hired several writers to author the Nancy Drew books, paying them a flat fee. While many of the Nancy Drew novels, including The Secret of the Old Clock were re-written and re-released between 19, Special Collections & Archives holds a copy of the 1930 edition of the first book in the series. ![]() ![]() Now a best-selling work of children's literature, it is titled The Secret of the Old Clock, and is the first of dozens of novels featuring Nancy, her family, and her friends that make up the Nancy Drew Mystery Stories.

I don’t know enough about art to say whether Alicia Berenson will stand the test of time as a painter. ![]() It has none of the visceral quality of Alicia’s best work. I find his stuff rather slick and shallow, to be honest. ![]() Since his death, the price of his photographs has increased astronomically. He had a distinctive style, shooting semi-starved, semi-naked women in strange, unflattering angles. They were both artists-Alicia was a painter, and Gabriel was a well-known fashion photographer.
