It was some shame that women gave off at having men see them tired and poor--it was some disgust that men had for women who were tired and poor. It was dirtier than any battle-field he had seen, harder to contemplate than any actual hardship molded of mire and sweat and danger, it was an atmosphere wherein birth and marriage and death were loathsome, secret things. He remembered one day in the subway when a delivery boy had brought in a great funeral wreath of fresh flowers, how the smell of it had suddenly cleared the air and given every one in the car a momentary glow. ‘I detest poor people,’ thought Amory suddenly. ‘I hate them for being poor. Poverty may have been beautiful once, but it's rotten now. It's the ugliest thing in the world. It's essentially cleaner to be corrupt and rich than it is to be innocent and poor.’ He seemed to see again a figure whose significance had once impressed him--a well-dressed young man gazing from a club window on Fifth Avenue and saying something to his companion with a look of utter disgust. Probably, thought Amory, what he said was: ‘My God! Aren't people horrible!’” F.

  • Valentino, Rudolph (1895-1926) by Peter J
    Valentino, Rudolph (1895-1926) by Peter J. Holliday Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The most popular of silent-screen stars, the darkly handsome Valentino gazed at his heroines with a mixture of passion and melancholy that sent chills down female (and some male) spines. To American women he represented mysterious, forbidden eroticism, the fulfillment of dreams of illicit love and uninhibited passion; but most male moviegoers found his acting ludicrous, his manner foppish, and his screen character effeminate. His androgynous persona, at once assertively virile and gracefully sensitive, threatened traditional images of American masculinity in a crucial period of cultural change. Top: A Paramount Born Rodolfo Alfonzo Raffaele Pierre Philibert Guglielmi in Castellaneta, Italy in 1895, Pictures poster for The Valentino emigrated to New York in 1913.

In 1917 he traveled to Hollywood where he landed bit parts in the movies, mostly as an exotic dancer or villain. He married bisexual actress Jean Acker in 1920, but the marriage was never consummated. Valentino's big break came in 1921 when Metro screenwriter June Mathis insisted that director Rex Ingram give him the lead in The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The film catapulted Valentino into stardom. He reached new heights with The Sheik (1921) for Paramount. During the film's exhibition women fainted in the aisles.

Acquisition Information Gift of Rex Bell Jr., 2002 Biography Clara Bow was an American actress active from 1923 to 1933. In 1924, Bow was named a WAMPAS baby star by the Western Association of Motion Picture Advertisers, the highest honor of the day for an aspiring screen actress. She reached the height of her popularity as a shop girl who seduces her employer in IT (1927). Bow was consequently dubbed "the 'It' Girl" - "It" being a euphemism for sex-appeal. Her next film, WINGS (1927) became one of the biggest successes of the silent era, winning the first Academy Award for Best Picture. In addition to being Paramount's first sound film, THE WILD PARTY (1929) marked Bow's sound film debut. Bow's fame waned when she failed to attain the popularity she enjoyed in the silent era.

    Hands Up! By Steve Massa Raymond Griffith is one of silent come- dy’s unjustly forgotten masters, whose onscreen persona was that of a calm, cool, world-weary bon vivant – some- thing like Max Linder on Prozac. After a childhood spent on stage touring in stock companies and melodramas, he ended up in films at Vitagraph in 1914 and went on to stints at Sennett,- L Ko, and Fox as a comedy juvenile. Not mak- ing much of an impression due to a lack of a distinctive character, he went be- hind the camera to become a gagman, working at Sennett and for other comics like Douglas MacLean.

  • A Cross-Cultural Analysis of Clara Bow's Image in 1920S Japan1
    1JSL, Volume 1 (2005), 1–18 Hideaki Fujiki American Film Star Unsettling Japanese Culture: A Cross-Cultural Analysis of Clara Bow’s Image in 1920s Japan1 Hideaki FUJIKI In this essay, I examine the star formation of Clara Bow in relation to the rise of consumer culture and modern girls in Japan during the latter half of the 1920s. While her original images were produced in the United States, she was identified as a representative of modern girls and associated with the new audiences who were recognized as modern girls and/or the petit bourgeois class. In being so, this American star functioned to disclose contradictions between her fans’ consuming activity and their national identity, but concurrently induced reactionary discourses. Her screen persona balanced its flapper-sensationalism and other properties, such as her seemingly spontaneous characterization, socially marginalized positions, and active physical movements. This ambiguity about the star’s attributes allowed Japanese media to take advantage of this star as a controversial yet lucrative subject. It follows that the vernacular formation of this star persona involved cultural and even political conflicts among her fans’ self-defining identities, critics’ valuations and evaluations, and governmental directions. While her fans’ activity increased the diversity and mobility of people’s identities and values in the nation, critics mostly was bent on prescribing them into either/or categories of binary oppositions, such as American versus Japanese and modern versus pre-modern. Thus, the American stars unsettled Japanese culture, but turned out to enhance the reactionary trend in which to confine Japanese people into a monolithic identity.

  • Wings by Dino Everett
    Wings By Dino Everett For many people simply knowing that the film “Wings” (William Wellman, 1927) is the only silent film (from the silent era) to ever win the Academy Award for best picture is enough to warrant any current day interest in it, but the truth is the film still holds inter- est on many levels. Considering it was made by a cast and crew of twenty some- things, one might be surprised that it wound up a film of any merit, let alone the impressive feature that it is. Narratively the film is not much beyond a couple of romantic love triangles set against the back drop of World War I. One features the juvenile minded Jack Powell (Charles ‘Buddy’ Rogers) who is under the belief that Sylvia Lewis (Jobyna Ralston) is his girl and when he returns from the war they will marry. This upsets his neighbor Mary Preston (Clara Bow) who secretly has always been in love with Powell. Meanwhile the true romance is between Lewis and David Armstrong (Richard Arlen), but they have both agreed to keep it secret from Powell until after the war since neither has the heart to tell him the Publicity material from the film’s original release.

  • Star Personas, and Cross-Class Romance Films in 1920S America
    Journal of Gender Studies Vol. 19, No. 1, March 2010, 73–86 RESEARCH ARTICLE The ‘New Woman’, star personas, and cross-class romance films in 1920s America Stephen Sharot* Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel (Received 27 June 2008; final version received 13 August 2009) The popular cross-class romance films of the 1920s were influenced by two socio- cultural developments: the ‘New Woman’, particularly in the form of the flapper, and the diffusion of the norms of disinterested love within the context of consumerism. The personas of the three female stars discussed here – Mary Pickford, Colleen Moore and Clara Bow – represented variations of the ‘New Woman’. Mary Pickford combined rebellion against, and continuity with, Victorian norms of femininity. Colleen Moore balanced a fun-loving flapper image with sexual reticence. Clara Bow represented the sexually assertive and alluring flapper. All three stars were heroines in cross-class romance films and their personas informed the variations in the plots of those films, but their personas were all accommodated to disinterested love, a norm that confirmed that the freedoms of the New Woman were confined within a class system linked to gender. Keywords: romance; consumerism; flapper; cross-class; stars; personas Richard Dyer (1979, 1986) has argued that star images function to resolve or manage contradictions within and between ideologies prevalent in society. Film star personas have always been implicated in gender, and Gaylor Studlar (1996, p. 250) has noted that the constructions of gender in the American films of the 1920s attempted to mediate between archetypal new and old social/sexual identities.
