This documentary could be uploaded because http://www.youtube.com/outis27 offered me the two parts.
I tried to upload them in HD, in HQ, in all possible on and with Pinnacles Studio 14 but it was not possible to create a video in which the sound and the sceneries were perfect there "at the same time", not as in the original ones. Don't know how you call that, but anyway, I let it for what it is, and uploaded it pure, just as Melina Mercouri herself.
And it is good. Excellent. I guess. No, I am sure you think the same about it.
Thank you, Melina, for giving your colour to Greece.
The world.
Politics.
Art.
Women!!!


About Melina Mercouri:
Melina Mercouri (Greek: Μελίνα Μερκούρη), born as Maria Amalia Mercouris (October 18, 1920, Athens, Greece March 6, 1994, New York City, New York) was a Greek actress, singer and politician.

As an actress she made her film debut in Stella (1955) and met international success with her performances in Never on Sunday, Phaedra, Topkapi and Promise at Dawn. She won the award for Best Actress at the 1960 Cannes Film Festival, and she was also nominated for an Academy Award, three Golden Globe Awards, and two BAFTA Awards.

A political activist during the Greek military junta of 19671974, she became a member of the Hellenic Parliament in 1977 and the first female Minister for Culture of Greece in 1981. Mercouri was the person who, in 1983, conceived and proposed the programme of the European Capital of Culture, which has been established by the European Union since 1985.
