Matt Monro (Terence Parsons) was born in England on December 1st, 1930. Frank Sinatra once said Matt was his favorite singer. Matt also sang the main theme "From Russia With Love". He died February 7th, 1985 from inoperable liver cancer at the age of only 54. Underrated singer. "What we do in life echoes in eternity"-----Matt Monroes music like him has become a timeless Legend, and when you tick all the right boxes then you have earnt that title.------RIP
The song still enchants after all these years -- William Holden and Jennifer Jones still fondly remembered. Not too many know about Han Suyin, on whose autobiographical novel the movie was based. Han was born of a Chinese father and Belgian mother in the last century when the world was going to pieces, with World War I raging and China already in the depths of her century of agony. To me Han's greatest accomplishment was her autobiography/history trilogy: The Crippled Tree / A Mortal Flower / Birdless Summer. A must read for anyone, Chinese or not, who wants to know about China's recent past, and the part the West played in that past. It sheds light on why China has taken the course it has taken -- and why it will likely continue in the same essential direction, of national revival under a collectivist government. Han's trilogy covers events from 1885 to 1948, but nonetheless will be a timely read today.
