The Cutter Alicia

"... sailed one spring morning into a small patch of mist from where she never again emerged..."

Not content with starring in five films, multiple TV and radio projects and a university science festival this year, Benedict Cumberbatch apparently looked at his calendar and realized he had a few minutes of free time still unaccounted for in 2013, so he decided to narrate another film.

Benedict will lend his dulcet tones to the National Geographic Cinema giant screen feature Jerusalem, debuting at museum and science center theaters worldwide in September 2013. 

The 45-minute, giant-screen film gives audiences a rare tour of the storied city as well as exclusive access to iconic holy sites and little-known parts of the region. Aside from the breathtaking scenery, “Jerusalem” explores some of the surprising intersections among Judaism, Christianity and Islam, which come together in this sacred city. [x]

Contact a museum or science center near you to find out if they screen IMAX/dome/giant screen films, or contact NatGeo directly at National Geographic’s Museum Theater Partners page.

ATTENTION: THE PHOTOGRAPHS OF AMANDA AND MARTIN’S CHILDREN ARE GOING AROUND AGAIN! PLEASE REPORT THESE WHEN YOU SEE THEM. ASK THE PERSON TO TAKE THE DOWN. PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE.
If you see them, tell the person to take it down or email tumblr support at support@tumblr.com explaining the situation and linking to the photograph, they are VERY aware of it and usually respond very quickly.

Amanda asked us to pass on her thanks to all of you who work so hard to keep those photographs of her kids down. She really appreciates it and this is a matter obviously very close to her heart. If anyone EVER gives any of you sass for asking those pictures to be taken down, point them to this screencap here. Point them to this quote from our interview with her.

Kristina: I think, in general, how fandom works, it’s sort of like this big family, and if anyone acts out, it’s like, immediately, “You need to stop that!”
 
Amanda: Yeah, it’s great. You’re protective of the show and of Martin and Ben and the people that they love, and that’s one of the things that I love. I do. I love it. It’s really sweet and caring, and, like, everyone was very sweet when the picture of our children went up. Everyone was really lovely, and they were kind of very protective. Of course, we can’t do anything about that. It’s an unsolicited photograph. I had no idea it’d been taken, and the next thing, it was up. Martin and I are very, very careful about not involving our children in any of this, but you know, they have to see their dad. We have to go down and see him, and you can’t stop people from photographing. We are so careful about not getting them involved in anything. 
 
Kristina: Yeah, I know.
 
Amanda: Everybody was very lovely about making sure that came down.
 
Kristina: I haven’t seen it for a while. I think the issue was that when they first went up, there was a big attack. It was like, “Take it down!” And then new people came in with Series 2, and they didn’t realize. I hope that it’s well aware now. 
 
Amanda: Yeah, it’s lovely, and I really appreciate it. It means a lot to me that you care about that concern. Thank you. I do appreciate it. 

She has been so kind and so sweet to fandom, the least we could do is to be amazing back to her.

Please circulate this. You can see here that Amanda doesn’t want those going around. Please, please, please.
