    Tesis doctoral Luis Laborda Oribes La construcción histórica en la cinematografía norteamericana Dirigida por Dr. Javier Antón Pelayo Facultad de Filosofía y Letras Departamento de Historia Moderna Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona 2007 La historia en la cinematografía norteamericana Luis Laborda Oribes Agradecimientos Transcurridos ya casi seis años desde que inicié esta aventura de conocimiento que ha supuesto el programa de doctorado en Humanidades, debo agradecer a todos aquellos que, en tan tortuoso y apasionante camino, me han acompañado con la mirada serena y una palabra de ánimo siempre que la situación la requiriera. En el ámbito estrictamente universitario, di mis primeros pasos hacia el trabajo de investigación que hoy les presento en la Universidad Pompeu Fabra, donde cursé, entre las calles Balmes y Ramon Trias Fargas, la licenciatura en Humanidades. El hado o mi más discreta voluntad quisieron que iniciara los cursos de doctorado en la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona, donde hoy concluyo felizmente un camino repleto de encuentros. Entre la gente que he encontrado están aquellos que apenas cruzaron un amable saludo conmigo y aquellos otros que hicieron un alto en su camino y conversaron, apaciblemente, con el modesto autor de estas líneas. A todos ellos les agradezco cuanto me ofrecieron y confío en haber podido ofrecerles yo, a mi vez, algo más que hueros e intrascendentes vocablos o, como escribiera el gran bardo inglés, palabras, palabras, palabras,... Entre aquellos que me ayudaron a hacer camino se encuentra en lugar destacado el profesor Javier Antón Pelayo que siempre me atendió y escuchó serenamente mis propuestas, por muy extrañas que resultaran.

  • When Cultures Collide: Leading Across Cultures, Third Edition by Richard D
    When Cultures Collide: Leading Across Cultures, Third Edition by Richard D. Lewis Nicholas Brealey Publishing. (c) 2006. Copying Prohibited. Reprinted for Kristen Dammers, Sapient [email protected] All rights reserved. Reproduction and/or distribution in whole or in part in electronic,paper or other forms without written permission is prohibited. When Cultures Collide: Leading Across Cultures, Third Edition Chapter 13: Britain Overview For decades the British film industry, enriched by the talents of such actors as Alec Guinness, Peter O'Toole, John Gielgud, Ralph Richardson, Alastair Sim, George Cole and Charles Laughton, has put the typical Englishman on the screen for the world to see. The BBC, in such admirable programs as Upstairs, Downstairs and Yes, Minister, has reinforced the image. The Englishman dresses in tweeds or a three-piece pin-striped suit and a Burberry raincoat on rainy days. He wears a bowler hat, carries a tightly furled, black umbrella with a cane handle and has a pink newspaper tucked under his left armpit. He goes to church on Sunday mornings and eats roast beef with Yorkshire pudding for Sunday lunch. He is a man of principle, insists on fair play for underdogs, does things in a proper manner and shows more affection for horses, cats and dogs than for children, foxes and grouse. He probably went to Eton and Oxford (Cambridge?) and frequents Ascot, Wimbledon, Twickenham, Lord's and Wentworth. He believes in the Monarchy, the Empire and the Conservative Party. When not in his Club (no ladies allowed), he sits in the local pub with gardeners and game wardens, with whom he sips warm beer called real ale.

  • An Impossible Task? Scripting the Chilian Club
    Chapter 5 An Impossible Task? Scripting The Chilian Club Andrew Spicer Introduction This chapter will explore the multifarious drafting and redrafting of scripts and full screenplays for a film based on George Shipway’s controversial political satire The Chilian Club (1971), the story of a quartet of elderly assassins – former army officers – who believe they are saving their country from Communist subversion. Although The Chilian Club was never produced, ten complete adaptations were written involving four different hands – writer- directors Peter Collinson and Mike Hodges, Benny Green, the well- known radio scriptwriter and broadcaster, and Michael Klinger who was to have been the film’s producer – over a six- year period (1972–7). As discussions of screenwriting often emphasize (Rilla 1973: 12–16; Cook and Spicer 2008: 213–16; Maras 2009: 11–15), it is important to establish what is understood to be the object of study. Thus, although there will be a detailed examination of the scripts themselves and the aesthetic difficulties of realizing Shipway’s novel, the chapter will also pay close attention to the fluctuating nature of the collaborations involved and contextual factors that shaped them. This was a period of exceptional volatility and uncertainty in the British film industry, and Klinger, as an independent producer, faced extreme difficulties that had a direct bearing on his attempts to film The Chilian Club. Figure 5.1 The strapline for Klinger News with a typical headline; courtesy of Tony Klinger 72 Andrew Spicer My analysis of the deeper forces at work in attempting to realize The Chilian Club will be based on hitherto unused material in the University of the West of England’s Michael Klinger Papers that shed light on the convoluted relationships between screenwriters, distributors, potential investors, public bodies and large corporations, all pivoting round the figure of Michael Klinger as the producer.

  • Colonel March of Scotland Yard Dave Mann, Independent Scholar, UK
    Epicurean Disdain and the Rhetoric of Defiance: Colonel March of Scotland Yard Dave Mann, Independent Scholar, UK In the 1950s and early 1960s, the lower reaches of the British film industry underwent a profound transition -- it shifted from the production of programme fillers and supporting features to making TV/Film series (called telefilm in America). This transition has yet to undergo sustained critical scrutiny principally because this emergent form falls between two, compartmentalised, areas of scholarship -- Film Studies and Television Studies. Yet these early series are deserving of our attention because, firstly, they became a staple of the domestic film production and, secondly, because they articulate a series of complex ideological engagements. One of the most important of these dialogic exchanges was with the American television market. Primarily this was because British series could not recoup their costs by supplying the fledgling indigenous television sector alone and thus had to achieve American distribution. Far earlier than her British counterparts, the American arriviste Hannah Weinstein saw the potential for producing TV/Film series in Britain where production costs were significantly lower. She also recognised a shift in the American market from anthologies made up of discrete episodes drawing on a variety of genres and fronted by former Hollywood stars, such as the domestically-produced Douglas Fairbanks Presents (1953-56), to more economic series which exploited a regular cast and standard sets. To date, accounts of Weinstein's work focus on her role as head of Sapphire Films producing internationally successful swashbucklers beginning with The Adventures of Robin Hood (1955-59; see Neale, 2003: 245-257 and 2005a: 73-87).

  • Losey S'est Souvent Passionné Pour Les Rapports De Classe Et La Tension Sexuelle Entre Les Êtres
    LE DÉMIURGE, SA FEMME ET SON AMANT Du fascinant The Servant (1963) à Accident (1967), sans oublier Le Messager (1971), Joseph Losey s'est souvent passionné pour les rapports de classe et la tension sexuelle entre les êtres. Inspiré par L'Ennui de Moravia, radiographie existentielle de la désagréga- tion de la bourgeoisie et de son oisiveté, Une Anglaise romantique est sans doute l'une des œuvres les plus méconnues - et les plus exaltantes - de son auteur. S'attachant souvent à faire imploser les couples, il s'intéresse ici aux rapports désormais inexistants entre un écrivain à succès, un rien blasé, et sa femme profondément désœuvrée. Car c'est bien d'ennui, au sens de Moravia, qu'il s'agit : dans leur grande maison cossue, où chaque objet est à sa place, les deux époux lisent sagement dans leur lit l'un à côté de l'autre, dans un plan des plus éloquents sur l'apathie de leur union. Lorsque Michael Caine demande à Glenda Jackson si elle est insatisfaite, celle-ci, souffrant d'une forme moderne de bovarysme, répond qu'elle aimerait bien, mais qu'elle ne s'y sent pas autorisée. Pensant briser les chaînes conjugales, elle quitte la grande propriété où elle étouffe pour se réfugier à Baden-Baden afin, dit-elle, de "se trouver". Elle y fera la connaissance de Thomas, un gigolo au visage d'ange à qui Helmut Berger prête ses traits, qui la suivra jusqu'en Angleterre. Le duo devient alors trio. Et comme souvent, les figures triangulaires exacerbent les tensions qui peuvent conduire à l'explosion.
