A mannequin (also called manikin, mannikin, dummy, or lay figure) is an often articulated doll used by artists, tailors, dressmakers, and others especially to display or fit clothing. During the 1950s, mannequins were also used in nuclear tests to help illustrate the effects of nuclear weapons on human beings. The term is also used for lifesized dolls with simulated airways used in the teaching of first aid, CPR, and advanced airway management skills such as intubation and for human figures used in computer simulation to model the behaviour of the human body. Mannequin is also used in English in the sense of fashion model. Mannequin comes from the French word mannequin, which had acquired the meaning an artists jointed model, which in turn came from the Middle Dutch word mannekijn, meaning little man, figurine.

Includes:Mannequin (1987), MPAA Rating: PG Mannequin 2: On the Move (1991), MPAA Rating: PG Mannequin In Mannequin, a lame attempt to revive the style and panache of fantasy-tinged romantic comedies of the '30s and '40s, Andrew McCarthy stars as a department store window-dresser who discovers that one of his mannequins (Kim Cattrall) is actually a woman from ancient Egypt when she becomes animated one evening. She then inspires him to become the most expressive window-dresser the business has ever seen. Of course, there is intrigue involving a rival department store's attempt to drive the good guys out of business, and together the two store-crossed lovers must combat the forces of evil to save the day. There is no real mystery about what will happen in the course of the film; it all seems color-by-numbers. The only thing unique about Mannequin is its uniquely bad and illogical script, which has holes larger than the Grand Canyon. Mannequin was a surprise box-office hit, earning nearly 25 million dollars in just under a month of its release -- no small feat considering its miniscule budget and seeming lack of appeal to any particular demographic. It spawned an inferior sequel, Mannequin Two: On the Move, reaffirming the belief that anything is possible. In spite of being panned by critics across the board, it did manage to receive one accolade -- its theme, "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now," was nominated by the Academy for Best Song. ~ Jeremy Beday, Rovi Mannequin 2: On the Move Flamboyant window dresser Hollywood Montrose (Meshach Taylor) provides the link between this film and the original Mannequin after the departure of Kim Cattrall and Andrew McCarthy from the cast. Hollywood has now been promoted to the head of Prince & Company's Visual Display Department. He takes on a new assistant, Jason (William Ragsdale) who, in times past, was the dauphin of the kingdom of Hauptmann-Koenig. One thousand years ago, he lost his beloved Jessie (Kristy Swanson) when an evil sorcerer (Terry Kiser) turned her into a wooden icon, now known as the Enchanted Peasant Girl. As a tribute to Hauptmen-Koenig, the Enchanted Peasant Girl is being sent to Prince & Company for a window display. Jason awakens Jessie and the two get re-acquainted, having a millennium of things to catch up on. But the evil sorcerer, now reincarnated as Count Spretzle, arrives on the scene to take Jessie (and a prized necklace) and hop a flight for Bermuda, with Jason the only one who can stop him. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Hanoi Women's Museum, The Legacy Of The Vietnamese Woman
The Hanoi Women's Museum is an establishment dedicated entirely to honour the contribution made by Vietnamese women in the defense and development of their motherland. The museum commemorates the courage and dedication of the countless millions of women who have played their part towards the overall progress of the nation.
The first section of the museum is dedicated to a statue representing the ‘Vietnamese Mother'. A pure gold 3.6 metre figure carrying a male child on her shoulder, the statue projects an impression of strength and dynamism while retaining the gentleness, femininity and beauty of the Vietnamese woman. The right hand held open symbolizes the courage and conviction to overcome any obstacle, and the uplifted child carried on the statue's left hand signifies innocence as well as triumph.
Proceeding further the visitor will be able to observe a section of the museum which depicts the accomplishments of women in the area of national defence and patriotism. The women's combative spirit is exemplified by the Trung sisters who are said to have hoisted the first flag upon the advent of invaders. A torch has been placed in this part of the museum symbolizing the unceasing patriotism and fighting spirit of Vietnamese women.
The museum walls feature a variety of photographs depicting the toils and sacrifices made by the women of Vietnam. Especially poignant is one entitled ‘Mother's children' which shows a mother grieving over her dead children.
Many of the photographs focus on the triumphs of women in the areas of education, industry and healthcare among other fields. The perseverance, dynamism and optimism of Vietnamese women are clearly visible through the pictures.
Another sector of the museum is devoted to the formation and achievements of the Vietnam Women Union. Close to 65 years old, the organization has functioned to uplift the status of women in Vietnamese society and promote the involvement and contribution of women in the political arena.
A noteworthy aspect of the museum is a section featuring mannequins displaying the traditional dress of the 54 minority groups of Vietnam. There are also black and white images of minority women occupied in everyday activities like weaving, cooking and looking after children. With its diverse exhibits the Women's Museum will arouse the curiosity of any visitor.
