  • Spotlight on John Williams ****
    Spotlight on John Williams **** JOHN WILLIAMS Prospero Disc One: 10 tracks - 66:12 Disc Two: 6 tracks - 35:04 John Williams’ music has long been a source of inspiration for conductors and record labels who produce re-recordings. Charles Gerhardtwas one of the first practitioners of this back in the 1970s, and Williams himself admired these albums very much, stating in 1980: “In recent years, Gerhardt has done more than anyone else toward advancing the course of film music.” The Prospero label, conductor Kevin Griffiths and Switzerland’s City Light Symphony Orchestra offer the latest John Williams highlights album, Spotlight on John Williams, featuring an array of greats that cover a wide range of the composer’s repertoire. Thankfully, this orchestra is well versed with playing this material, due in no small part to Film Concerts Live having a special arrangement whereby their latest live-to-picture package is premiered and performed by the orchestra in their home of the KKL Concert Hall in Lucerne (an example of which takes place this coming June with Superman in Concert). The Spotlight playlist opens with material from Mark Rydell’s 1972 film The Cowboys. Williams originally constructed this 10-minute overture for his debut Boston Pops performance in 1980, where it shined due to its suitably fanfaric structure with appropriate sprinklings of Americana. The orchestra nails the performance here, making for a fantastic opener. We then shift to a trilogy of Spielberg classics: First up is the underperformed Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom “End Credits” (paging Laurent Bouzereau; this is how your Concord album should have finished!).

  • Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's Adapted Screenplays
    Absorbing the Worlds of Others: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s Adapted Screenplays By Laura Fryer Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of a PhD degree at De Montfort University, Leicester. Funded by Midlands 3 Cities and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. June 2020 i Abstract Despite being a prolific and well-decorated adapter and screenwriter, the screenplays of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are largely overlooked in adaptation studies. This is likely, in part, because her life and career are characterised by the paradox of being an outsider on the inside: whether that be as a European writing in and about India, as a novelist in film or as a woman in industry. The aims of this thesis are threefold: to explore the reasons behind her neglect in criticism, to uncover her contributions to the film adaptations she worked on and to draw together the fields of screenwriting and adaptation studies. Surveying both existing academic studies in film history, screenwriting and adaptation in Chapter 1 -- as well as publicity materials in Chapter 2 -- reveals that screenwriting in general is on the periphery of considerations of film authorship. In Chapter 2, I employ Sandra Gilbert’s and Susan Gubar’s notions of ‘the madwoman in the attic’ and ‘the angel in the house’ to portrayals of screenwriters, arguing that Jhabvala purposely cultivates an impression of herself as the latter -- a submissive screenwriter, of no threat to patriarchal or directorial power -- to protect herself from any negative attention as the former. However, the archival materials examined in Chapter 3 which include screenplay drafts, reveal her to have made significant contributions to problem-solving, characterisation and tone.
