Hollywood’s new obsession with the Getty empire? How about the Rothschild?

Money talks: Hollywood’s new obsession with the Getty empire
In the last few months, fascination with the twisted tales of the billionaire oil baron J Paul Getty, and his grandson Paul’s maybe-staged kidnapping, has reached a fever pitch thanks to two high-profile dramas.
First, Ridley Scott’s Oscar-nominated film All the Money in the World and, now, the 10-part series Trust, the first three episodes of which are helmed by Oscar winner Danny Boyle.
There are substantial differences between the two projects: chiefly, one’s a two-hour movie, the other a 10-hour TV series.
Moreover, where Scott’s film pushes the narrative that Paul’s kidnapping wasn’t planned, Trust frames it as an orchestrated scheme to extort money from his grandfather to pay back debts to drug dealers.
Nevertheless, both All the Money in the World and Trust are in thrall to the Getty family’s troubles, none of which appear to have been eased by the fact that, at one point, its patriarch was estimated to be the richest man in the world.
Bigwigs like Getty have always been catnip for film and TV producers. The relentless avarice of There Will be Blood’s Daniel Plainview and the psychological dissolution of Howard Hughes in The Aviator proved fascinating to both audiences and the Academy and like the recent one-two punch of Getty-centric projects, Bernie Madoff’s fall from grace inspired a miniseries and a film in the span of less than a year.
Something about the rags to riches (and sometimes back to rags) stories, the ambition and the greed, combines the indulgence of a good hate-watch with the vicarious pleasures of viewing lives so far from our own.
The Getty attraction, though, is a bit different.
Both projects that have taken the oil magnate as their subject have largely avoided spending much time recounting the accumulation of his enormous wealth and, since Getty died about as rich as he lived, nor do they depict him squandering it.
After all, the man was notoriously stingy, going so far as to install a coin-operated payphone for guests in his Sutton Place McMansion.
Instead, both Trust and All the Money in the World appear more taken by a kind of palace intrigue, using Getty’s grandson’s disappearance as a lens through which we’re meant to learn something fundamental about the man himself. That he refused to pay his grandson’s ransom, which equaled about a single day’s profit at Getty Oil, signifies more than just cheapness or gross self-regard but also the fraught interplay between money and family.
In the new series, for instance, which was created and written by Simon Beaufoy (a frequent Boyle collaborator who also penned last year’s Battle of the Sexes), the hour-long pilot takes place almost entirely within the Gettys’ gothic London estate, an elaborate, darkly lit fortress where visitors dote on and curry favor with Mr Getty.
The camera zeroes in on the lavish particularities of his life: the multiple girlfriends, the expensive art, the strained family ties, and the butlers, one of whom quite literally dresses Getty from underwear to suit and brushes his teeth for him.
Played by Donald Sutherland, Getty is both more menacing and more vulnerable in Trust than he was made to be by Christopher Plummer, who replaced Kevin Spacey in Scott’s film just a month before its release and nabbed an Oscar nomination.
Both portrayals, though, suggest a distant man so paranoid of his own wealth and power that he can hardly put either to good use (“When a man becomes wealthy,” says Plummer’s Getty, as though he’s reciting scripture, “he has to deal with the problem of freedom”).
Where those qualities are most conspicuous is in the kidnapping incident, which remains one of the most peculiar, made-for-TV stories of the 20th century, a veritable checklist of intrigue.
The story includes, of course, a mega-rich oilman and his scions, but also Italian mobs, English manors, a severed ear, family infighting, and an emotional anchor, Gail Getty, played by Hilary Swank in Trust and Michelle Williams in All the Money in the World.
Paul Getty eventually did come home safely, only after the ransom payment was reduced from $17m to $3m. But he was traumatized so deeply by it that he turned, like other members of the Getty family, to drugs and alcohol, suffering a stroke in 1981 brought on by a cocktail of valium, methadone and alcohol that left him quadriplegic.
It remains to be seen whether Trust will make a big splash at FX, especially since a movie with the same subject and plot was released just three months ago to middling box office (it made $25m in the US).
Since Trust proceeds as a slow series of character studies where Money is something of a breakneck thriller, the two may be different enough to stave off Getty fatigue. After all, the American viewing public has not been known to tire of stories like these.
Missing Malaysian airliner and the Rothschild family. What’s the connection?

Missing Malaysian airliner and the Rothschild family…
Freescale Semiconductor Ltd, Ultra-small Micro-controller, Kinesis KL02…
In 1882, Edmond de Rothschild financed the establishment of the first Zionist settlement in Palestine.
The Rothschild family had invested heavily in oil extraction, and particularly in Baku (Azerbaijan). Baku produced more than 50% of the oil in the world in 1901 and the Rothschild family was the main producer. A single derrick extracted more than all the 25,000 derricks in the USA in 1883.
The Russian and the Swedes were the first to invest in Baku oil fields. And the Rothschild poured in 2 million pounds in 1884 in the Baku reserves.
England was the last industrial country to get interested in oil production and consumption: It had plenty of coal and its vast industrial complex was relying on burning coal. Investing in modern powered infrastructure needed a political decision that Germany offered.
Germany had become the first industrial country in Europe and next to the USA, and its export around the world exceeded England. But Germany, a new capitalist country had not accumulated enough capital to match England or France.
England had decided that the only option to oppose Germany export expansion was to preempt a war by blocking its maritime ports and the main foreign ports (Anvers in Belgium and Rotterdam in the Netherlands) that serve Germany market. This strategic decision was made in 1905 and the preparation for war started in earnest between the two countries. The program for their navy was to end in 1914 with almost a match in the number of battle ships weighting over 20,000 tons.
In 1880, the Dutch Kessler discovered oil in the Island of Sumatra (current Indonesia) and sold his company Royal Dutch to Henri Deterding. The Rothschild family purchased 10% of the shares. It turned out that Deterding discovered vast reserves of oil in Texas and broke the monopoly of Standard Oil
In 1920, the Rothschild family had enough of the instability in Azerbaijan as the Soviet took over in Russia, and sold their shares in Baku oilfields.
Edmond de Rothschild decided to re-invest in agricultural lands in Palestine and dispatch Jews to take care of the lands and organized them in Kibbutz.

Shepard Ambellas, founder and editor-in-chief of Intellihub News and the maker of SHADE the Motion Picture, posted this April 4, 2014:
While the disappearance of MH370 which had 239 people aboard is tragic, new bombshell information reveals that a Texas-based technology giant, Freescale Semiconductor Ltd., may have benefited in some way from the missing airliner which was reported to have been carrying 20 of Freescale’s employees.
Although it’s obvious the loss of human life likely saddened employees and co-workers of Freescale, the possibility still remains that higher-ups in the corporation may have benefited from the event.
“Freescale previously confirmed that the 20 employees — 12 from Malaysia and eight from China — were among 239 people on flight MH370. The company has not released the names of those employees, and again declined to do so on Monday.”, as reported by Brian Gaar, the American Statesman, Mar. 24.
It has also been mentioned in a statement by a company spokesperson that the employees who were aboard MH370, were extremely talented and valuable in the technological field.
Ultra-small Microcontoller
In February 2013, Freescale unveiled the Kinesis KL02, the world’s smallest microcontroller, measuring 1.9 mm by 2mm and containing RAM, ROM and a clock. The company brags that the device is so small that it can be swallowed for medical uses, such as releasing drugs according to prescription schedule or directing micro-surgery.
Tiny though it may be, the micro-controller is the key to next-generation warfare based on self-guidance, tactical versatility and hierarchy of commands, in short, an adaptive thinking weapon that can outsmart foes. Potential applications include:
Drones smaller than a fly, either as remotes or autonomously, on surveillance missions or to deliver biowarfare packets, for example, lab-cloned viruses or toxic drugs. Their light weight means longer flying periods or even indefinite hovering time if solar-powered.

Injectable implants to insert a human-machine interface, for example, a targeting system attached to the optic nerve, rendering Google glasses obsolete.
Bionic implants could be implanted in nerves of the limbs to control battery-powered prosthetic, realizing the Pentagon’s dream of a human-centered robotic warrior, known to anime fans as “meka”.
Maneuverable micro-satellites and mini-submarines that can be operated as drones or act independently to track and hunt larger weapons systems, spy satellites too small to be detected by ground telescopes, and orbiting warheads containing chemical, biological or nuclear materials.
Freescale Semiconductor Ltd. is primarily owned by the Blackstone Group, i.e. Lord Jacob Rothschild, the same group responsible for spraying the highly-toxic Corexit 500A into the waters of the Gulf of Mexico in the months following the BP oil spill as reported early on by Intelihub News.
Shockingly, we also see the Carlyle Group listed as a secondary investor adding another layer of suspicion for investigators.
It is reported that the chip in this case, the chip whose patent Rothschilds now may have sole ownership and control of, would allow more drops than previously to be placed on microchip wafers. potentially bringing chips closer to nano levels.
One very good reason for getting rid of notoriously untrustworthy Chinese developers who, as with Asians or Jews, invariably remain faithful to their country of origin or allegiance more than their country of birth or residence.
The convenient end to the lives of these technicians denies China groundbreaking military-applications technology that would have very likely been privately leaked or sold to them and widely pirated by China for military and commercial purposes.
The official entry listed under Freescale Semiconductor’s “financials” section on Wikipedia states:
On September 15, 2006, Freescale agreed to a $17.6 billion buyout by a consortium led by Blackstone Group and its co-investors, Carlyle Group, TPG Capital, and Permira.
The buyout offer was accepted on November 13, 2006 following a vote by company shareholders. The purchase, which closed on December 1, 2006, was the largest private buyout of a technology company until the Dell buyout of 2013 and is one of the ten largest buyouts of all time.
As a journalist, I have to point out the vast amount of monies invested into this technology firm.
It’s not like $17.9 bn is a drop in the bucket by any means, likely signifying the true importance of this corporation.
I also have to question why so many Freescale employees were on the same flight at the same time, as four of them were reported by several sources to have been U.S. patent holders of a new technology with wider military applications. This would likely have been a breach of protocol, but at the least a costly oversight.
In fact it’s been reported that Peid Ong Wang, Suzhou, Zhijun Chen, Suzhou, Zhihong Cheng, Suzhou and Li Ying, Suzhou, Freescale employees from China who were said to have been onboard flight 370, were each 20% holders of U.S. Patent #US008671381B1.
Shockingly, the remaining 20% has been reported to be held by Freescale Semiconductor Ltd., which now after the disappearance of flight 370 becomes the sole patent holder.
In laymen’s terms, Lord Jacob Rothschild is now the patent holder by virtue of invested interest into Freescale Semiconductor Ltd.
The Rothschild owned and controlled Malaysian government has acquired rights to chips that can embed identity tags into cash, passports or even human bodies.
The chip can replace barcode tags in retail goods, and can be inserted into the human body, animals, bullets, credit cards and other items for verification purposes, said the report.
The made-in-Malaysia microchip measuring 0.5 mm X 0.5 mm – the size of a decimal point – uses the radio frequency identification (RFID) chip technology.
To bring things further into perspective, putting the icing on the cake, the Rothschild dynasty owns the Malaysian Central Bank which in-turn is heavily invested into the Malaysian government and Malaysian Airlines.
