公司簡介

good year 音譯的牌子是固特異，美國的輪胎大牌。生產工裝鞋及登山鞋，其透底扎線的款式也叫 good year款式。 美國固特異輪胎橡膠公司始建於1898年，至今已有百餘年的歷史。固特異公司是世界上最大規模的輪胎生產公司，總部位於美國俄亥俄州阿克隆市，公司主要在28個國家90多個工廠中生產輪胎、工程橡膠產品和化學產品。如今固特異在全世界的員工達到80,000多人。 1898年的美國，路上通行的交通工具形形色色，從馬匹、馬車直到誕生不久的汽車，但他們都迫切需要一種能緩衝路面衝擊力的墊子。於是弗蘭克希柏林兄弟買下了俄亥俄州阿克隆市東部的一間硬紙板廠，開始製造橡膠製品。為了紀念1839年發明“硫化”的查爾斯固特異先生，兄弟倆將公司取名“固特異輪胎與橡膠公司”，並選擇“飛足”為商標，取其優美、迅捷之意。

內容簡介

The official tie-in to the movie directed by Ridley Scott, starring Russell Crowe and Albert Finney—a Twentieth Century Fox release. Love, laughter, wine, and the glorious landscape of Provence abound in this movie from director Ridley Scott, who conceived the idea for this story with his Proven?al neighbor Peter Mayle. Mayle then went on to write the novel on which the movie is based. The film's stars, Russell Crowe and Albert Finney, and its talented international cast and crew are beautifully portrayed in these pages, which also include an exclusive Q&A with Scott and Mayle, passages from the Marc Klein screenplay, a synopsis of the story, and fascinating behind-the-scene notes about the filmmaking, winemaking, and Provence. Includes over 130 beautiful production photos and illustrations. A Good Year tells the story of Max Skinner (Crowe), a London-based investment expert who inherits a small wine estate in the Luberon from his bon vivant uncle, and must take a break from daily warfare in the City to settle things. Max wants to sell and run, but once in Provence, his plans fall apart. The benevolent spirit of his late Uncle Henry (Finney), a lovely and feisty restaurant owner (Marion Cotillard), a mysterious young American (Abbie Cornish), a passionate winegrower (Didier Bourbon), and the magical region itself all conspire to keep Max at Chateau La Siroque, where he ultimately discovers the man he might have been.
