Playwright David Shayne considers himself an artist, and surrounds himself with like minded people, most struggling financially as they create art for themselves, not the masses. David, however, believes the failure of his first two plays was because he gave up creative control to other people who didnt understand the material. As such, he wants to direct his just completed third play, God of Our Fathers, insider scuttlebutt being that it may very well make David the toast of Broadway. With David having no directing history, Davids regular producer, Julian Marx, cant find any investors. He is Nick Valenti, a big time mobster, with the catch being that his dimwitted girlfriend, non actress Olive Neal, get the lead role. A hesitant David and Julian, who are able to talk Nick into them giving Olive one of the two female supporting roles instead, go along with the scheme hoping. Written by. Huggo. Plot SummaryAdd Synopsis. Edit. Did You KnowTrivia. According to John Baxters biography of Woody Allen, Jennifer Tilly was the only member of the cast allowed to ad lib or add to her lines, an acting impulse which Allen otherwise routinely crushed. She also claims that Allen actually advised her not to allow any other actors to slip into ad libs but to interrupt them or talk over them instead. See more.

Schlieren image of a bullet travelling in free flight demonstrating the air pressure dynamics surrounding the bullet. A bullet is a component of firearmammunition and is the projectile expelled from the firearms barrel. The term is from Middle French and originated as the diminutive of the word boulle boullet, which means small ball. Bullets are made of a variety of materials such as copper, lead, steel, polymer, rubber and even wax. They are available either singly as in muzzleloading and cap and ball firearms,2 or as a component of paper cartridges3 and much more commonly metallic cartridges. Bullets are made in a large number of shapes and constructions depending on the intended applications, including specialized functions such as hunting, target shooting, training and combat. Though the word bullet is often used incorrectly in colloquial language to refer to a cartridge, a bullet is not a cartridge but rather a component of one. A cartridge is a combination package of the bullet, casing, propellant and primer. This use of the term bullet when cartridge is intended in a conversation, leads to confusion when the components of a cartridge are discussed or intended. Bullet sizes are expressed by their weight and diameter referred to as caliber in both imperial6 and metric measurement systems. For example 5. 5 grain. The bullets used in many cartridges are fired at a muzzle velocities faster than the speed of sound78 about 3. C 6. 8 F and thus can travel a substantial distance to a target before a nearby observer hears the bang of the shot. The sound of gunfire i. Bullet speed at various stages of flight depends on intrinsic factors such as its sectional density, aerodynamic profile and ballistic coefficient, and extrinsic factors such as barometric pressure, humidity, air temperature and wind speed. Subsonic cartridges fire bullets slower than the speed of sound so there is no sonic crack. This means that a subsonic cartridge such as. ACP can be substantially quieter than a supersonic cartridge such as the. Remington, even without the use of a suppressor. Bullets do not normally contain explosives,1. Historyedit. Round shot from the Mary Rose showing both stone and iron ball shot. The first use of gunpowder in Europe was recorded in 1. It had been used in China for hundreds of years. The cannon appeared in 1. Later in 1. 36. 4, the hand cannon appeared. Early projectiles were made of stone. Stone was used in cannon and hand cannon. In cannon it was eventually found that stone would not penetrate stone fortifications which gave rise to the use of heavier metals for the round projectiles. Hand cannon projectiles developed in a similar fashion following the failure of stone from siege cannon. The first recorded instance of a metal ball from a hand cannon penetrating armor occurred in 1. In this photograph of shot retrieved from the wreck of the Mary Rose which was sunk in 1. The round shot are clearly of different sizes and some are stone while others are cast iron. Matchlock musket balls, alleged to have been discovered at Naseby battlefield. The development of the hand culverin and matchlockarquebus brought about the use of cast lead balls as projectiles. Bullet is derived from the French word boulette, which roughly means little ball. The original round musket ball was smaller than the bore of the barrel. It was loaded into the barrel wrapped in a loosely fitted cotton patch 1. Bullets not firmly on the powder risked exploding the barrel, with the condition known as a short start. The loading of muskets was, therefore, easy with the old smooth bore Brown Bess and similar military muskets. The original muzzle loading rifle, on the other hand, with a more closely fitting ball to take the rifling grooves, was more difficult to load, particularly when the bore of the barrel was fouled from previous firings. For this reason, early rifles were not generally used for military purposes. The first half of the nineteenth century saw a distinct change in the shape and function of the bullet. In 1. 82. 6, Henri Gustave Delvigne, a French infantry officer, invented a breech with abrupt shoulders on which a spherical bullet was rammed down until it caught the rifling grooves. Delvignes method, however, deformed the bullet and was inaccurate. Square bullets have origins that almost pre date civilization and were used by slingers in slings. They were typically made out of copper or lead. The most notable use of square bullet designs was done by, James Puckle and Kyle Tunis who patented them, where they were briefly used in one version of the Puckle gun. The early use of these in the black powder era was soon discontinued due to irregular and unpredictable flight patterns. Pointed bulletsedit. Delvigne further developed cylindro spherical left and cylindro conical bullets middle, which received the bullet grooves developed by Tamisier for stability. Before Tamisiers invention, the orientation of a cylindro conical bullet would tend to remain along its inertial axis, progressively setting it against its trajectory and increasingly meeting air resistance, which would render the bullets movement erratic. Delvigne continued to develop bullet design and by 1. His bullet designs were improved by Francois Tamisier with the addition of ball grooves which are known as cannelures these moved the resistance of air behind the center of gravity of the bullet, and Louis tienne de Thouvenin. Tamisier also developed progressive rifling. The rifle grooves were deeper toward the breech, becoming shallower as they progressed toward the muzzle. This causes the bullet to be progressively molded into the grooves which increased range and accuracy. The Thouvenin rifle barrel had a forcing plug in the breech of the barrel to mold the bullet into the rifling with the use of a special ramrod. While successful in increasing accuracy it was extremely hard to clean. These improvements were the basis for the development of the Mini Ball. Among the first pointed or conical bullets were those designed by Captain John Norton of the British Army in 1. Nortons bullet had a hollow base made of lotus pith that, on firing, expanded under pressure to engage with a barrels rifling. The British Board of Ordnance rejected it because spherical bullets had been in use for the previous 3. Renowned English gunsmith William Greener invented the Greener bullet in 1. Greener fitted the hollow base of an oval bullet with a wooden plug that more reliably forced the base of the bullet to expand and catch the rifling. Tests proved that Greeners bullet was extremely effective, but the military rejected it too because, being two parts, they judged it as too complicated to produce. The soft lead Mini ball was first introduced in 1. Claude tienne Mini, a captain in the French Army. It was another improvement of the work done by Delvigne. As designed by Mini, the bullet was conical in shape with a hollow cavity in the rear, which was fitted with a small iron cap instead of a wooden plug. When fired, the iron cap would force itself into the hollow cavity at the rear of the bullet, thus expanding the sides of the bullet to grip and engage the rifling. In 1. 85. 5, the British adopted the Mini ball for their Enfield rifles. In 1. 85. 5 James Burton, a machinist at the US Armory at Harpers Ferry, West Virginia improved the Mini Ball further by eliminating the metal cup in the bottom of the bullet. The Mini ball first saw widespread use in the American Civil War. Roughly 9. 0 of the battlefield casualties in this war were caused by Mini balls fired from rifled muskets. Mini Ball design from the U. S. Arsenal, Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. A similar bullet called the Nessler ball was also developed for smoothbore muskets. Between 1. 85. 4 and 1.
