What is "Only murder... just outside the beautiful building"?
On this day... Nero died by suicide in 68AD. During his reign, executions were at times utilizing damnatio ad bestias (criminals thrown to wild animals which at times were wolves). Just over 1,800 years later, in 1870, Charles Dickens died after suffering a stroke. One of his books, David Copperfield, dealt with psychological issues later found to be called the "Wolf Man" concept by Freud. Michael J. Fox was born on this date in 1961. Most of his film career was in the 80s like Teen Wolf where he played a teenage werewolf. 20 years later, Natalie Portman was born in 1981. While no history of performances in wolf movies, Black Swan delved into psychological trauma similar to "Wolf Man" concept discovered decades earlier by Freud. It's all relative.
