'One ship sails east, the other west, by the self same winds that blow; it's the set of the sails, and not the rules, that decides the way to go' -Errol Flynn

As Summer approaches and everyone is preparing their kids for the Sea Shores of the Caspian or the Pacific Ocean, take in mind not the Get Wet ;0)



The Upcoming Summer Blockbuster 'Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End' starring Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom and the beautiful Keira Knightly will be setting for the last Adventure or so announced. It will certainly be of interest to know that they will be confronted to a number of fellow actors of Persian Heritage Once More! ;0)



Omid Djalili as Askay/Pusasn

Marshall Manesh as Sumbhajee

And David Zahedian appeared in the previous episode as a Turkish Guard



Plot:

After Elizabeth (Keira Knightly), Will (Orlando Bloom), and Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) rescue Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) from the clutches of the Kraken, they must face their foes, Davey Jones (Bill Nighy) and Lord Cutler Beckett (Tom Hollander). Beckett, now with control of Jones' heart, forms a dark alliance with him in order to rule the seas and wipe out the last of the Pirates. Now, Jack, Barbossa, Will, Elizabeth, Tia Delma, and crew must call the Pirate Lords from the four corners of the globe, including the infamous Sao Feng (Chow-Yun Fat), to a gathering that will make their final stand against Beckett, Jones, Norrington, the Flying Dutchman, and the entire East India Trading Company.

Following a long tradition of swashbuckling heroes in Hollywood best symbolized by the Great Errol Flynn, Gore Verbinski has successfully brought back the genre and modernized it with Fantasy and humour.



Will there be a sequel to this movie? It is hard to say after the Mega Success and accumulation of work (All three episodes were shot one after the other for three different releases) that was in itself an adventure for the entire cast. What is sure is that it will certainly remind many of the great hours of Warner Bros' greatest Swashbuckler Errol Flynn and his Pirate Buddies. Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Rum!

Omid Djalili, 42, was born in London to Iranian parents and is now acclaimed as one of Britain’s finest stand-up comedians. He has featured in films including The Mummy, Gladiator and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, and has made numerous television appearances, including his own series, The Omid Djalili Show. He is currently touring the UK and lives in London with his wife and three children, aged 14, 12 and 8

"Disaster always seems to strike four or five days into my holidays. Our last was to Evia, in Greece, in the summer. We stayed in a lovely hotel at the foot of a hill, right next to the sea, with beautiful gardens and fantastic food, and for the first few days it was paradise.

Then we started hearing reports on the news about forest fires that were devastating parts of the country. When the sky turned an apocalyptic red, and ash began to fall onto the hotel, it was time to leave. The hotel rep told everyone not to panic, but to leave within four hours.

So we ignored his instructions, panicked, jumped in our hire car and raced the forest fires back to Athens. At one point, the fire had crossed the road, forcing us to veer around it. It was pretty scary, but quite exciting, and by the time I had retold the episode a few times, I had personally hosed the flames and prevented Athens from burning.

My ideal holiday would be to go somewhere by myself. For most of my life, I have been surrounded by people. My parents used to fill the house with sick Iranians, who paid to stay while awaiting treatment and occupied my bedroom. I had to sleep in the lounge, but only after they had all finished sitting there and gone to bed.

I used to dream of being in a house on my own, and one of the best holidays I ever had was when I first left home to go to university in Northern Ireland. I hired a cottage in Coleraine and stayed there, by myself, watching political party conferences by day and Just Good Friends by night, ordering curries and reading. It gave me a complete sense of freedom, which is what holidays should be about.

We had only two family holidays, both to Iran to visit relatives. The first I was too young to remember, but the second is rooted in my mind because of the horrors it contained. I was six years old and we went to stay with my grandfather in Tehran. It was alternately very hot and very cold; I was unused to the food and sick most of the time; and, when I was well enough to venture out, the local Tehranian youth stole my western toys.

To complete the happy holiday, there was no sewer system, and I nearly died after falling into the pit of human excrement where everyone emptied their various receptacles. I’ve never been back, but I would love to go, not least because Iran is probably one of the few places where I will be able to waltz through customs.

My first thought when those planes hit the Twin Towers was that travelling for me would never be the same again. I’d already encountered a few problems, because of having a threatening name, but since 9/11 I’ve learnt to allow extra time to be detained by customs officers.

On one occasion, I went to America to film the sitcom Whoopi, with Whoopi Goldberg, and had to wait several hours while they phoned the production office to find out whether the sitcom was for real or just an elaborate ploy by a well-known terrorist. In the past year, it’s got better, as they’ve started to recognise me. Instead of searching me, customs officers ask for my autograph.

Arab countries are easier and one of the most unusual places I’ve been is the village of Aït Benhaddou, in Morocco, where we filmed part of Gladiator. The village is in the Atlas Mountains, near Ouarzazate. It was incredible to be among the local Berber people, who still live simple lives, largely untouched by the modern world – apart from large film crews and Russell Crowe.

I went back to Morocco a year later to make the film Spy Game and discovered that I had become a huge celebrity there – I was in The Mummy, which had been showing four times a day, prior to our arrival, on Moroccan national television. I’ve got a great photograph of myself surrounded by an autograph-hungry mob in Casablanca.

In the background, Brad Pitt and Robert Redford, the big stars of the film, are hovering completely unknown and unnoticed. That sort of reception is so much better than being under suspicion in America."

Edinburgh Festival celebrity choice: Omid Djalili

I'd highly recommend Louis CK. I'm always dubious when people are tipped as "one of the best comedians around" but even Ricky Gervais has been talking about this guy being the best comedian he has ever seen.

I also think Tim Minchin is very funny. He's like an Australian Bill Bailey. He plays the piano and his show is mostly comedy songs but he also does stand-up.

Then there are the Honourable Men of Art, a bunch of comedians including Daniel Kitson, Andy Zaltzman and Alun Cochrane. They are quite cerebral and just give a very different view-point on life. It is mostly stand-up and is very uplifting.

Prince Charles of England was subjected to a roast this past week, mostly about his lengthy wait to inherit the throne, from some of the worlds highest profile comedians at a gala to celebrate his 60th birthday. See Omid Djalili piece in this video clip.
