| movies at dubai mall cinema: The Best Things in Life are Free Lonely Planet, 2016-08-01 Lonely Planet's The Best Things in Life are Free is packed full of money-saving tips, tricks and recommendations for the best-value sights and experiences around the world. From parks, museums and exercise classes that are free, to insider ideas on food and experiences offered at great value, this book features over 60 major cities around the world and promises to help any traveller on a budget to make the most of their trip. Includes parks and gardens, street markets and food trucks, viewing points, museums and galleries, free experiences, spectator sports, city beaches, and much more. For many, free and cheap things are not only appealing but essential for stretching the funds to last as long as possible for an extended journey. Yet, even on a short trip, many unforgettable blasts of freedom and discovery can happen on a thin budget. You quickly realise that cheap can mean much, much better. No fancy Roman trattoria dinner can truly rival the bread and cheese picnic in Villa Celimontana, a short walk from the Colosseum, on a visit to the Eternal City. Needless to say, the monetary value implied in the term 'free' can misrepresent what's on offer within these pages. The quality of an experience, after all, is not always attached to a price tag, such as the priceless experience of unearthing the world's secret wonders, whether that's swimming around Sydney's ocean pools or strolling the tombs and monuments of Delhi's Lodi Gardens. Additionally, it's an exaggeration to say that everything good is 100% free, so you'll find plenty of excellent value cheap things to experience throughout this book as well. Dip into your spare change for classy street food like a choripán (chorizo sandwich) in Buenos Aires, the best views of Hong Kong's skyline from the Star Ferry and a Boston brewery tour. After using the tips in this book, you'll be left with great memories, a happier you and a grateful wallet. Happy travels!

| movies at dubai mall cinema: Reorienting the Middle East Dale Hudson, Alia Yunis, 2024-01-16 Stories of desert landscapes, cutting-edge production facilities, and lavish festivals often dominate narratives about film and digital media on the Arabian Peninsula. However, there is a more complicated history that reflects long-standing interconnections between the Persian Gulf, Arabian Sea, and Indian Ocean. Just as these waters are fluid spaces, so too is the flow of film and digital media between cultures in East Africa, Europe, North Africa, South Asia, Southwest Asia, and Southeast Asia. Reorienting the Middle East examines past and contemporary aspects of film and digital media in the Gulf that might not otherwise be apparent in dominant frameworks. Contributors consider oil companies that brought film exhibition to this area in the 1930s, the first Indian film produced on the Arabian Peninsula in the late 1970s, blackness in Iranian films, the role of Western funding in reshaping stories, Dubai's emergence in global film production, uses of online platforms for performance art, the development of film festivals and cinemas, and short films made by citizens and migrants that turn a lens on racism, sexism, national identity, and other rarely discussed social issues. Reorienting the Middle East offers new methods to analyze the often-neglected littoral spaces between nation-states and regions and to understand the role of film and digital media in shaping dialogue between area studies and film and media studies. Readers will find new pathways to rethink the limitations of dominant categories and frameworks in both fields. |

| movies at dubai mall cinema: Desperate in Dubai Ameera Al Hakawati, 2011-11-20 Oozing with men, money, and Maseratis, Dubai is the ultimate playground for the woman who knows her Louboutins from her Louis Vuittons. But for some, there’s a lot more at stake than a Hermes Birkin. Leila has been in search of a wealthy husband for over a decade. Nadia moves to Dubai to support her husband’s career, only to have her sacrifices thrown in her face. Sugar escapes the UK in an attempt to escape her past. Lady Luxe, the rebellious Emirati heiress, scoffs at everything her culture holds sacred. Until the day her double life starts unravelling at the seams.

| movies at dubai mall cinema: Building Sharjah Sultan Sooud Al Qassemi, Todd Reisz, 2021-07-05 Building Sharjah reveals how modern architecture unfurled across the United Arab Emirates’ third-largest city. An oil discovery in 1972 positioned Sharjah as one of the world’s final cities shaped by transformative fortune. In the footsteps of Kuwait, Riyadh, and Dubai, Sharjah faced a metamorphosis: either one that repeated the past’s mistakes or one that reimagined how wealth can build a city. Sharjah’s potential enticed an international cast of experts to create a bold, new city. As their projects begin to vanish, this book preserves them through unseen photographs and recovered documents. New writing chronicles how local and arriving residents arranged the designed, concrete environment into a home. Beyond just a local artifact, this book examines the confident promises made by global practices of urbanization. |
| movies at dubai mall cinema: How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia Mohsin Hamid, 2013-03-05 Mr. Hamid reaffirms his place as one of his generation's most inventive and gifted writers. –Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times A globalized version of The Great Gatsby . . . [Hamid's] book is nearly that good. –Alan Cheuse, NPR Marvelous and moving. –TIME Magazine From the internationally bestselling author of The Reluctant Fundamentalist and Exit West, the boldly imagined tale of a poor boy’s quest for wealth and love His first two novels established Mohsin Hamid as a radically inventive storyteller with his finger on the world’s pulse. How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia meets that reputation—and exceeds it. The astonishing and riveting tale of a man’s journey from impoverished rural boy to corporate tycoon, it steals its shape from the business self-help books devoured by ambitious youths all over “rising Asia.” It follows its nameless hero to the sprawling metropolis where he begins to amass an empire built on that most fluid, and increasingly scarce, of goods: water. Yet his heart remains set on something else, on the pretty girl whose star rises along with his, their paths crossing and recrossing, a lifelong affair sparked and snuffed and sparked again by the forces that careen their fates along. How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia is a striking slice of contemporary life at a time of crushing upheaval. Romantic without being sentimental, political without being didactic, and spiritual without being religious, it brings an unflinching gaze to the violence and hope it depicts. And it creates two unforgettable characters who find moments of transcendent intimacy in the midst of shattering change. |
| movies at dubai mall cinema: Film and the City George Melnyk, 2014-05-01 Most Canadians are city dwellers, a fact often unacknowledged by twentieth-century Canadian films, with their preference for themes of wilderness survival or rural life. Modernist Canadian films tend to support what film scholar Jim Leach calls “the nationalist-realist project,” a documentary style that emphasizes the exoticism and mythos of the land. Over the past several decades, however, the hegemony of Anglo-centrism has been challenged by francophone and First Nations perspectives and the character of cities altered by a continued influx of immigrants and the development of cities as economic and technological centers. No longer primarily defined through the lens of rural nostalgia, Canadian urban identity is instead polyphonic, diverse, constructed through multiple discourses and mediums, an exchange rather than a strict orientation. Taking on the urban as setting and subject, filmmakers are ideally poised to create and reflect multiple versions of a single city. Examining fourteen Canadian films produced from 1989 to 2007, including Denys Arcand’s Jésus de Montréal (1989), Jean-Claude Lauzon’s Léolo (1992), Mina Shum’s Double Happiness (1994), Clément Virgo’s Rude (1995), and Guy Maddin’s My Winnipeg (2007), Film and the City is the first comprehensive study of Canadian film and “urbanity”—the totality of urban culture and life. Drawing on film and urban studies and building upon issues of identity formation in Canadian studies, Melnyk considers how filmmakers, films, and urban audiences experience, represent, and interpret urban spatiality, visuality, and orality. In this way, Film and the City argues that Canadian narrative film of the postmodern period has aided in articulating a new national identity. |

| movies at dubai mall cinema: Narrative Environments and Experience Design Tricia Austin, 2020-04-15 This book argues narrative, people and place are inseparable and pursues the consequences of this insight through the design of narrative environments. This is a new and distinct area of practice that weaves together and extends narrative theory, spatial theory and design theory. Examples of narrative spaces, such as exhibitions, brand experiences, urban design and socially engaged participatory interventions in the public realm, are explored to show how space acts as a medium of communication through a synthesis of materials, structures and technologies, and how particular social behaviours are reproduced or critiqued through spatial narratives. This book will be of interest to scholars in design studies, urban studies, architecture, new materialism and design practitioners in the creative industries. |

| movies at dubai mall cinema: The Multiplex in India Adrian Athique, Douglas Hill, 2009-12-17 During the decade of its existence in India, the multiplex cinema has been very much a sign of the times – both a symptom and a symbol of new social values. Indicative of a consistent push to create a ‘globalised’ consuming middle class and a new urban environment, multiplex theatres have thus become key sites in the long-running struggle over cultural legitimacy and the right to public space in Indian cities. This book provides the reader with a comprehensive account of the new leisure infrastructure arising at the intersection between contemporary trends in cultural practice and the spatial politics that are reshaping the cities of India. Exploring the significance, and convergence, of economic liberalisation, urban redevelopment and the media explosion in India, the book demonstrates an innovative approach towards the cultural and political economy of leisure in a complex and rapidly-changing society. Key arguments are supported by up-to-date and substantive field research in several major metros and second tier cities across India. Accordingly, this book employs analytical frameworks from Media and Cultural Studies, and from Urban Geography and Development Studies in a wide-ranging examination of the multiplex phenomenon. |

| movies at dubai mall cinema: Globalization and Latin American Cinema Sophia A. McClennen, 2018-05-25 Studying the case of Latin American cinema, this book analyzes one of the most public - and most exportable- forms of postcolonial national culture to argue that millennial era globalization demands entirely new frameworks for thinking about the relationship between politics, culture, and economic policies. Concerns that globalization would bring the downfall of national culture were common in the 1990s as economies across the globe began implementing neoliberal, free market policies and abolishing state protections for culture industries. Simultaneously, new technologies and the increased mobility of people and information caused others to see globalization as an era of heightened connectivity and progressive contact. Twenty-five years later, we are now able to examine the actual impact of globalization on local and regional cultures, especially those of postcolonial societies. Tracing the full life-cycle of films and studying blockbusters like City of God, Motorcycle Diaries, and Children of Men this book argues that neoliberal globalization has created a highly ambivalent space for cultural expression, one willing to market against itself as long as the stories sell. The result is an innovative and ground-breaking text suited to scholars interested in globalization studies, Latin-American studies and film studies. |

| movies at dubai mall cinema: Diaspora in the MENA Region and Beyond Aditya Anshu, 2024-07-18 Diaspora in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Region and Beyond is very relevant for emerging multidisciplinary Diaspora studies. The region itself has settled or long-term international migrants; Diasporas from neighbouring regions to Diasporas from distant places; Diasporas with the same ethnic/religious/cultural identity as that of natives, to Diasporas having a distinct and divergent ethnic/linguistic identity. The number of these Diasporic communities and their role in economic development is substantial. Their concerns and contributions require academic and research output to understand them and their potential to serve the domestic and foreign objectives of the host countries as well as those of world community. |

| movies at dubai mall cinema: Lebanese Cinema Lina Khatib, 2008-08-30 Modern Lebanese cinema can best be explored in the context of the Civil War, in part because almost all the Lebanese films made since its outset in 1975 have been about this war. Lina Khatib takes 1975 Beirut as her starting point, and takes us right through to today for this, the first major book on Lebanese cinema and its links with politics and national identity.She examines how Lebanon is imagined in such films as Jocelyn Saab's Once Upon a Time, Beirut, Ghassan Salhab's Terra Incognita, and Ziad Doueiri's West Beirut. In so doing, she re-examines the importance of cinema to the national imagination. Also, and using interviews with the current generation of Lebanese filmmakers, she uncovers how in the Lebanese context cinema can both construct and communicate a national identity and thereby opens up new perspectives on the socio-political role of cinema in the Arab world. |

Even as love complicates everything . . . This paperback edition will include a teaser chapter of the upcoming second book in the Lightlark Saga. |

| movies at dubai mall cinema: A Curious Chemistry Mike Mannion, 2019-04-11 A Curious Chemistry is a wonderfully funny comic novel about a clueless young man, an idealistic young woman and a grotty town on the verge of destruction.Ned Smallwood is a young man who lives a very boring life. He has no luck with women, has no dress sense and works in the bird sanctuary at Shingle Point - a dilapidated coastal town poisoned by dangerous and highly toxic chemicals from the old, leaky and high unstable chemical plant nearby.Ned's life is transformed when he meets Julia, a beautiful and highly idealistic girl, who for some reason is very interested in Ned. They go on a date but to Ned's dismay she turns out to be an ultra-extreme radial socialist and part of a militaristic action group called the Children of Gaia. But Ned can't help but fall in love, will do anything for Julia, so finds himself being dragged into the group's dangerous and highly illegal activities.Meanwhile, Lord Harold Grimes, the chief executive of Grimes Chemicals, has a problem. The chemical plant at Shingle Point is unprofitable and numerous gas leaks and pipe ruptures are costing the company a fortune in compensation claims. He hatches a radical plan to fix it all. It will net him vast sums of money but involves so much death and destruction that Julia and the Children of Gaia are forced to act. Julia drags Ned into a situation so dire it changes his whole life, everyone his knows and the whole of Shingle Point forever...REVIEWSMike Mannion's books are well plotted with characters that leap off the page.

| movies at dubai mall cinema: HELLO, FROM SOMEWHERE: Stories of the Roads I Traveled (A Memoir) Metty Pellicer, 2015-01-01 Whenever the author has returned from traveling her friends wanted to hear detailed accounts of her experiences. She started emailing these accounts. Many have kept copies of their favorite pieces and soon everyone wanted the author to compile them into a book. From Alaska to Zanzibar, the author offers funny and detailed observations of the places, people, and cultures she has encountered. On a visit to Pompeii, she tells of frescoes of the various ways ancient Romans copulate. In Africa she thrilled to the spectacle of a lion kill of an impala in the wild, but was repelled by a cat with its kill of a rat in the alleys of Zanzibar. On her 70th birthday, she celebrated with a solo walk of the 800 km Camino Santiago de Compostela from St. Jean Pied de Port in the French Pyrenees to Galicia in Spain. She got lost in the mountains on the first day, but the trek was smooth all the way from there. After her husband passed in 2004 she continued to travel and reflected on her life. A lapsed Catholic, she took a Buddhist retreat in Tassajara trying to inject a spiritual dimension in her life, but she found the vegetarian meals and the mountains more alluring. Along the way she made many friends, young and old, who enriched her life and who showed her that life is indeed beautiful! |
