  • John Ford Birth Name: John Martin Feeney (Sean Aloysius O'fearna)
    John Ford Birth Name: John Martin Feeney (Sean Aloysius O'Fearna) Director, Producer Birth Feb 1, 1895 (Cape Elizabeth, ME) Death Aug 31, 1973 (Palm Desert, CA) Genres Drama, Western, Romance, Comedy Maine-born John Ford originally went to Hollywood in the shadow of his older brother, Francis, an actor/writer/director who had worked on Broadway. Originally a laborer, propman's assistant, and occasional stuntman for his brother, he rose to became an assistant director and supporting actor before turning to directing in 1917. Ford became best known for his Westerns, of which he made dozens through the 1920s, but he didn't achieve status as a major director until the mid-'30s, when his films for RKO (The Lost Patrol [1934], The Informer [1935]), 20th Century Fox (Young Mr. Lincoln [1939], The Grapes of Wrath [1940]), and Walter Wanger (Stagecoach [1939]), won over the public, the critics, and earned various Oscars and Academy nominations. His 1940s films included one military-produced documentary co-directed by Ford and cinematographer Gregg Toland, December 7th (1943), which creaks badly today (especially compared with Frank Capra's Why We Fight series); a major war film (They Were Expendable [1945]); the historically-based drama My Darling Clementine (1946); and the "cavalry trilogy" of Fort Apache (1948), She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949), and Rio Grande (1950), each of which starred John Wayne. My Darling Clementine and the cavalry trilogy contain some of the most powerful images of the American West ever shot, and are considered definitive examples of the Western. Ford also had a weakness for Irish and Gaelic subject matter, in which a great degree of sentimentality was evident, most notably How Green Was My Valley (1941) and The Quiet Man (1952), which was his most personal film, and one of his most popular.

Countryman, Chair Associate Professor Victor Román Mendoza Associate Professor Sherie M. Randolph, Georgia Tech University Associate Professor Stephen Ward Maryam K. Aziz [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0002-2006-4285 © Maryam K. Aziz 2020 DEDICATION To my Nana, Dr. Winfred Barbee, who passed away just as I finished prelims and defended my prospectus. Thank you for helping to raise me, for all the years of laughter, rigor, and Black culture, and for being the first person to see me submit this dissertation, perched from your hallowed place atop my desk. To Aura Rain Rosser, who lost her life shortly after I arrived in Ann Arbor. If not for state violence, you may very well have become the doctor instead of me, but you certainly would have grown old. And to all the Black women, cis, trans, and non-binary, who have lost their lives but now fly over us. You are the real warriors. #SayHerName ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I could not have written this project without the figures included in its pages. They told their own stories and created their own archives. I picked up a story already told and, like my favorite detectives, listened to those who lived it. I thank everyone that showed me that martial arts, movement arts, and healing movements are woven into the fabric of human cultures.

DeMille By Philip Joseph Wagner Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Television University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Chon A. Noriega, Chair This dissertation looks to the career of epic cinema pioneer Cecil B. DeMille in order to grasp the role of the research department in the Hollywood studio system. Situated at the intersections of three areas of study—scholarship on the form and social function of popular historical representation; theorizing on the archive as a site of knowledge production; and studies on film authorship that attend to the historical underpinnings of aesthetic choices—the dissertation explores the following questions in particular: What were the industrial standards on which studio researchers based the success and authenticity of their work? And what can we know about the research process as it relates to the production and reception of DeMille’s brand of spectacular cinema? ii I offer this study as an intervention into previous scholarship on research practice in Hollywood, which too often stresses cinema’s divergence from the factual record and draws a rigid binary between academia’s histories and the “unprofessional” ones derived from research departments.

  • View of the Praan-Based Courts, and So Could Not Care Less About Working for the Government
    ABSTRACT BLOOD OF THE WINDMAKER by Elizabeth Jenike BLOOD OF THE WINDMAKER is a fantasy/steam punk novel that attempts to make an exploration into human bodies and their significance/insignificance using fantasy tropes and an inverted Journey of the Hero structure. During the writing of this, I was especially interested in subversions and “otherings” of the human body—tattoo markings have an intricate role in the magic system of my world, but the acquisition of this “magic” marks a person as Other. I’m trying to answer the questions: why do some bodies generate more meaning than others? What do bodies really “mean”?

  • Świat Westernów Johna Forda
    Łukasz A. Plesnar Świat westernów Johna Forda Podczas swej pięćdziesięciodziewięcioletniej kariery reżyserskiej John Ford zrealizował 129 filmów fabularnych (jeden, Jak zdobyto Dziki Zachód to wspólne dzieło Forda, Henry'ego Hathawaya i George'a Marshalla)1. Znalazły się wśród nich utwory należące do różnych gatunków: komedie, dramaty społeczne i psychologiczne, filmy przygodowe, historyczne, kryminalne i wojenne. Naj­ więcej, bo aż 59, było westernów. Nic więc dziwnego, że przez kinomanów Ford postrzegany jest przede wszystkim jako twórca tego właśnie gatunku2. 1 John Ford przyszedł na świat 1 lutego 1894 roku w Cape Elizabeth w Maine, w rodzinie irlandzkich imigrantów. Naprawdę nazywał się John Martin Feeney, choć wołał przedsta­ wiać się jako Sean Aloysius O'Feeney. Do Hollywoodu trafił śladem brata, aktora i reżyse­ ra, który przybrał pseudonim artystyczny Francis Ford. Początkowo John Martin pracował przy budowie dekoracji i grywał epizodyczne role, m.in. jednego z jeźdźców Ku-Klux-Kla- nu w Narodzinach narodu Griffitha. Reżyserować zaczął w 1917 roku pod nazwiskiem Jack Ford. Imię John przyjął dopiero w 1923, co stanowiło - być może - świadome nawiązanie do sławnego dramatopisarza elżbietańskiego, Johna Forda. 2 Prac opisujących i analizujących westerny Forda powstało bardzo wiele. Tu podaję tytuły je­ dynie najważniejszych.
