 LIONS FOR LAMBS
 

Appropriately, Lions for Lambs is a multi-tasker film with a foundation of ingenious, if not sturdy layers, capable of supporting projected United Artists constructions. The basic story is timeless – a look at the ‘lived in’ world, as an interwoven human pageant, in the process of being created and recycled, dedicated to a center ring struggle, with the goal to elevate our quality of life. At the beginning of the film the audience is cast in the role of Trump I, The Magus and Trump II, The Priestess. Audience reaction and participation, folded into the menu as the story was filmed, is reminiscent of an essential quality summoned by Buber, who embraced [and depended on] the relationship between the author and reader of, I and Thou.

Redford ‘sets the table’ by laying out the four types [raw materials on the work bench of a craftsperson] in pure form, that is, as the Regents, also known as the fixed Kerubs. Each Regent has a point of view and contributes something to the whole. Trump I owns the four elements [lesser versions of the Regents] laid out on the surface [altar] before him, and Trump II holds the partly revealed laws of science and spirit. Carl Jung borrowed this formula for dream interpretation, with reference to the four archetypes for men and the four archetypes for women [the anima and the animus], but Redford suggests everyone in the audience has all eight within their psyche - and sixteen if each one is given active-passive characteristics.

The ‘big four’ in Lions for Lambs contain an electric spark and magnetic assimilative ability, or masculine and feminine fingerprints. The four Regents are personified by Robert Redford [Professor Stephen Malley], Meryl Streep [Janine Roth], Tom Cruise [Senator Jasper Irving], and a group of students, aka affectionately, acolytes or neophytes. For more about the cross, go to JK Rowling blueprint for the Houses of Hogwarts School.

 

Robert Redford represents higher mind guidance or the ‘insulator’, sometimes referred to as a guardian angel or oversoul. How do we examine our progress in life? The professor comes into direct contact with the students [masculine-feminine representatives of the human race] as a kind conscience. Through his eyes we see changes in the way people are prepared to enter the world and become successful. The ability to provide intellectual armor for his class is based, to a large degree, on enthusiastic participation of the students. For anyone within reach of the Apocrypha, this Kerub is often compared to St. Raphael in The Book of Tobit. Professor Malley is the Regent of Air, intellectual, and ‘healing.’

Meryl Streep represents the element of fire and the quest for ‘an honest man’ or, today we would say, the search for an ‘honest person.’ The search for truth is at the heart of our collective power as a nation. Freedom of the press cannot be eroded or we may lose our future generations. Attacks on our right to speak freely, sometimes launched by those inside government, weaken us as a whole. Roth notes manipulation of the press is our most recent advasary. Journalists are expected to have psychological insight into personality, protect the essential truth, and discard attached ornamentation. The community must be able to rely on its reporters to provide an accurate, up to the minute and circumspect daily account of news.

Tom Cruise personifies the mystical power of water as the defensive core of the United States. When the country began, most of our military leaders fought with their army. For example, General George Washington [Pisces] spent a biting cold winter with his troops at Valley Forge, encouraging them as a member of their ranks. The modern general is prepared to fight in an ‘air conditioned room,’ some 9,000 miles from isolated troops, watching a satellite screen and giving orders on the phone. Senator Irving represents the shift from an empathic Washington to the impersonal ‘whatever it takes’ guideline of modern technological warfare. He also refers to the adaptation problems that plague us now that defense must ‘fit into’ compressed computer terms.

The students, naturally, represent the magnetic earth, the great treasure we hold dear. They are our future, and they trust us with their future. The professor sees them as ‘Hope.’ From a metaphysical viewpoint, we live in a layered world. Each ‘environment’ is subdivided into several layers, all with unique identity, properties, purpose, and personnel. Regardless of our specific view of ‘things’, everyone at this level [the material world] must coordinate four basic points of power before lasting achievement is possible. The students represent the masculine and feminine faces of the Regent of Earth, the four power sources explored in the film.


Brief catch-up:  The Monad is first divided into the masculine and feminine principals, then subdivided into the quadrants, known as the Regents of the Universe. These facts have not changed since the beginning of creation. What changes is how we view the facts.


 Lions for Lambs ushers the audience through the rubex cube known as ‘the real world’, and slides us along the lines of definition that divide the image of a labyrinth from one of a maze. Most people respond to this story, as individuals usually do, at their own level of receptivity. But, Lions for Lambs director Robert Redford asks us to get involved as the composition of the film as an art form, unfolds. We are asked to think about our responsibility as conscientious watchers – observers – recorders – as to the status of the human condition as the new age dawns.

LIONS FOR LAMBS

Lions for Lambs begins after two determined students at a West Coast University, Arian (Derek Luke) and Ernest (Michael Pena), follow the inspiration of their idealistic professor, Dr. Malley (Robert Redford), and attempt to do something important with their lives. But when the two make the bold decision to join the battle in Afghanistan, Malley is both moved and distraught. Now, as Arian and Ernest fight for survival in the field, they become the string that binds together two disparate stories on opposite sides of America. In California, an anguished Dr. Malley attempts to reach a privileged but disaffected student (Andrew Garfield) who is the very opposite of Arian and Ernest. Meanwhile, in Washington D.C. the charismatic Presidential hopeful, Senator Jasper Irving (Tom Cruise), is about to give a bombshell story to a probing TV journalist (Meryl Streep) that may affect Arian and Ernest's fates.    Written by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer      Source:  IMDb

Dear Mr Redford, Ms Streep and Mr Cruise,

 After googling for 1 hour this address seems to be one that may get a message
through to you….I hope it works.

 Just wanted to say that I saw the movie last night and am moved to say a profound “YES!!” – a mature, intelligent, thoughtful meditation on what is going on – indeed violence is not the answer, and indeed we need to look beyond the surface.

 Well done!

 Regards,

      AN UNFINISHED LIFE  Redford plays embittered Wyoming rancher Einar Gilkyson, who spends his days cutting brush and looking after Mitch, his former horse wrangler and best friend, played by Morgan Freeman, now an invalid after being mauled by a bear. Einar spends a lot of time drinking, since the untimely loss of his son in a car accident, and blames his daughter-in-law Jean [Jennifer Lopez] who was driving. 

     "God, it was great to play a guy like him, gone to seed, surly. I put on weight, didn't have to shave or get groomed every morning, didn't have to smile for the camera. Plus, I had never played that guy before, but I knew him intimately. You live in the West long enough, you meet those guys everywhere. Times have changed, and they don't like it a bit. Some go with the flow, some don't, and this guy doesn't."

     An Unfinished Life was adapted from a novel by Mark Spragg and since, unlike most of his films in the past 25 years, it was not developed by Redford's Wildwood production company, he enjoyed the freedom of being an actor for hire. He could have offered a convincing voice on behalf of the magnificent Wyoming landscape. That backdrop, reminiscent of The Horse Whisperer, is perfect, in the terms of the script; the film location is actually Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada. His falcon film has been suspended, at least for now.

ABC Radio says "Spy Game" "Sizzles with suspense!"

SPY GAME  Model studies with regard to several ratio designs using Jupiter to Mercury blueprints - positive and deconstructive examples.

  • Jupiter, The Philosophic Urge vs. Mercury, The Analytical Urge  Robert Redford
    [Nathan Muir] personifies the sky conscious 'overview' mind, his energy/palette rhythm. His name rings a bell - perhaps naturalist John Muir [born April 21, 1838 Sun 0° Taurus 33, Ascendant Aquarius 16°02] comes to mind?  [See Robert Redford Email,  >Subject: Alaskan Wilderness-letter from Robert Redford]

  • Stephen Dillane [Charles Harker] personifies the lower mind, Mercury, the antithesis of Muir's Jupiterian role. The reversed mode of Dillane's character, Merlin, is drawn from the same power source as legendary King Arthur (2004).  Brad Pitt portrays a Mercurial type who, similar to Muir, will evolve into a higher octave version of himself.

  • 'The Right Way' - The ultimate rule under which all others are filed. Robert Redford [Nathan Muir] disposes of his opposition and protects Brad Pitt [his protégé Tom Bishop] with an appropriate application of lightning and thunder. In true Jupiterian fashion, he stays true to his word, he never compromises and throughout the film, Redford [Muir] remains undefeated.

  • Tarot Trump study RE Trump IX The Hermit and Trump VI The Lovers, linked with reference to Trump 0/XXII/Unnumbered- The Fool/Wise Man/Wanderer

  • The higher mind hero is Robert Redford as he portrays Nathan Muir, a phantom spy on his last and best day at work in the covert world of espionage. The pivoting relationship between Muir and his most promising recruit, protégé Tom Bishop [Brad Pitt] is the foundation of the story. Director Tony Scott dons the role of initiator-oversoul, an instructor role usually attributed to Jupiter in his guru robes. The audience receives subtle and higher mind techniques, useful in the fight to neutralize negative Mercury factors and lower octave, sub-death irritants. Read brief summary*

  • Redford also assumes the "higher mind" Jupiter part as the (uncredited) narrator in his early film with Brad Pitt, A River Runs Through It (1992)

  • ASTROLOGY:  Tony Scott, Director - Mercury: 18 Leo 28’, Jupiter: 29 Leo 05’

    Robert Redford as Nathan Muir - Mercury: 17 Virgo 44’, Jupiter: 14 Sag 40’
     *      Robert Redford's Full Chart @ - Robert Redford at The Press Club

    Brad Pitt as Tom Bishop - Mercury: 16 Capricorn 23’, Jupiter: 09 Aries 51’ 
       *  Star Charts for Brad Pitt      Brad Pitt/when filming Spy Game
        

  • Redford's stone cold power resonates with The Mountain Lake Wave, the thin "alternate" between and touching both The Akasha Black Wave and The Indigo Wave. Redford has a Star Chart with a Sun-Regulus conjunction:  Sun 25°59' in Leo, with his radix Moon @ 19°14' Virgo conjunct his Mercury @ 18°14' Virgo. His Ascendant, Pisces 28°58 greatly contributes to his naturalist concern for environmental deconstruction that is escalating today. Some examples of The Mountain Lake Wave are found in the writing of Carlos Castanada [especially emphasized in, A Separate Reality] and J Krishnamurti [check The Flight of The Eagle and Commentaries On Living.] Specimens listed here with this wave contained can help your research, I hope. They aren't endorsed by or linked with The Divining Nation:   

    Lepidolite with hexagonal or trigonal cross-sections, each "prism" face has complex crystalline formations, they are the "spirit" of the wave, and varieties of Stibnite - curving of the long bladed crystals is due to twinning where one twin plane bends the crystal one direction and another twin plane bends it in the other direction.

Other Redford Star Menu Choices

 

Robert Redford and Will Smith at Academy Awards with a moment to compare notes. Both actors share action- thrill director Tony Scott.
SPY GAME - "a pulse-pounding action thrill-ride"

     "Spy Game," (Redford, Brad Pitt) is shot inside the new CIA backdrop. As doors open and close within Langley headquarters, initial trade talk transitions are on an international time table. It is the final day for Nathan Muir, Redford's character. Bags packed for a place where the weather suits his clothes, the formal farewell is his only concern. The phone rings and his world is turned inside out. Fuses are lit and daylight is burning down to the big bang. Tom Bishop (Brad Pitt), a former recruit with promise and a knack for creating complications for Muir, independently attempts to rescue a prisoner inside China. The action never stops. The DVD is the recommended way to explore many facets of this superior film. Plenty of commentary and background information provided, including some deleted and alternate scenes. A peek into true life from the safety of your living room sofa.

      The ultimate outside the agency suspense film, "Enemy of The State" stars Will Smith in everyone's worst nightmare. A link with former girlfriend (Lisa Bonet) leads Smith's character to acquire an old CIA grizzly (Gene Hackman) who had successfully relocated outside the loop and under the radar. Both men want their lives back but the agency has other plans. Tony Scott's name is synonymous with action-suspense!

'Jailhouse rocked'
     A few words about Redford''s recent film, "The Last Castle", reviewed as a 'military testosterone fest' in the PACIFIC SUN article written by critic Stephanie Von Buchau

'     The Last Castle' is a high security military prison run by Col. Winter (James Gandolfini), a desk soldier with Capt. Queeg-like obsessions. He listens to Mozart and Salieri, polishing his collection of weapons. He's internalized his conflicts into maintaining perfect order and discipline in his prison. He uses both subtle psychological and crude physical force. His men have become callous and sadistic in their unenviable jobs.

     Into this artificial environment comes a new prisoner, three-star General Eugene Irwin (Redford), court-martialed for disobeying a direct order to retreat and getting eight men killed. (I thought the Army covered up stuff like that, but sentencing the general, stripped of his rank and sense of honor, to hard labor is necessary for the plot of this film.)

     At first, Winter admires the legendary officer who has written a book on tactics, but soon, as Irwin unwisely displays his disdain for a desk-jockey and begins to stick up for the more unfortunate prisoners, Winter becomes vindictive. A literal struggle for control of the prison erupts when Winter, who has been forcing the men to build a sloppy stone wall in the center of the quad, witnesses Irwin helping the men to destroy their inadequate work and re-do it the right way, thus restoring their pride ....
