  • Issues of Image and Performance in the Beatles' Films
    “All I’ve got to do is Act Naturally”: Issues of Image and Performance in the Beatles’ Films Submitted by Stephanie Anne Piotrowski, AHEA, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English (Film Studies), 01 October 2008. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which in not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (signed)…………Stephanie Piotrowski ……………… Piotrowski 2 Abstract In this thesis, I examine the Beatles’ five feature films in order to argue how undermining generic convention and manipulating performance codes allowed the band to control their relationship with their audience and to gain autonomy over their output. Drawing from P. David Marshall’s work on defining performance codes from the music, film, and television industries, I examine film form and style to illustrate how the Beatles’ filmmakers used these codes in different combinations from previous pop and classical musicals in order to illicit certain responses from the audience. In doing so, the role of the audience from passive viewer to active participant changed the way musicians used film to communicate with their fans. I also consider how the Beatles’ image changed throughout their career as reflected in their films as a way of charting the band’s journey from pop stars to musicians, while also considering the social and cultural factors represented in the band’s image.

Y. October 12, 1989 Students march to protest racism by Nathan J. Robinson Amid cries of "Stop the hate, before it's too late," 250 college students, including a group from Marist, marched through the city of Poughkeepsie on Sunday to protest racism. The march followed recent recruitment efforts by the Ku KLux Klan in Dutchess County. Members of Marist's Black Student Union, marching with students from five other colleges, made charges of racism on this campus, but they refused to comment on specific incidents. Students from Vassar College, Dutchess Community College, SUNY New Paltz, Columbia University and Howard University in Washington, D.C., walked hand-in-hand down the city's streets on a 12-mile "March Against Hate," beginning and ending at Vassar. The route took the marchers p st the Dutchess County Jail, where the grand drtfgon of the Ku Klux Klan in Indiana was held earlier in the week. Douglas Tuttle, 24, was arrested October 1 in Fishkill, N.Y., on a weapons charge. Tuttle had been stopped by state police in a routine traf­ fic check, and a loaded handgun and a blackjack were alledgedly found in his car.
