Start with their birth certificates. If their names have changed, even as juveniles, there will be legal records. Accessing those may require some modest fees.
Your posts are often fascinating, Tinypixie, and quite thought-provoking. Rarely though have I time to respond with the justice they merit. Here, though, you seem to address the question, how does art function (using the medium of film as an example)?
We might say, art (film) is a one-way street, with multiple lanes. All originate from the same source (the film, or other artwork), but the lanes diverge as they reach each individual. Therefore the experience of the film (or other artwork) will be different for each viewer (or listener, or whoever in whatever fashion the art is experienced).
So each individual's response to the film (or other artwork) will be "correct," for them, but it will be "wrong" for any other viewer. They may agree on many points, may agree on the significance of the whole, but ultimately they won't have experienced it the same. Right or wrong, their experiences won't "match."
Most significant, I think, is that none of them will be "right," in the sense of receiving exactly the message the artist intended to send, because the artist (here, generally, the director) is also an individual. Art attempts to bridge the unbridgeable divide between one (the artist, or director) and another (the viewer). Art seeks to express to another that which cannot otherwise be expressed. Could we say then that art is the intellectual equivalent of making love?
Makes me think, ought we not all simply wish to maximize joy in our lives, and minimize pain? There will be pain, it's inescapable...but there can be joy, too. Are we better off wishing for what might be, or delighting in what is, while we can?
And it's lovely on you, a perfect blend with your own scent. No. 5, isn't it? A lot of women wear that, but it doesn't really suit them. On you, it's...classy. And enticing.
