  • Reel Wars: Cold War, Civil Rights and Hollywood's
    REEL WARS: COLD WAR, CIVIL RIGHTS AND HOLLYWOOD'S CHANGING INTERPRETATION OF THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR 1945-75 J. Roy Collins M. Phil. 2006 . HESISfc tc o:> COL g REEL WARS: COLD WAR, CIVIL RIGHTS AND HOLLYWOOD'S CHANGING INTERPRETATION OF THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR 1945-75 J. Roy Collins A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Greenwich for the degree of Master of Philosophy March 2006 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my supervisors, Andrew Dawson, for his patient encouragement and for gently keeping me focused, and Michael Zell, for his very pertinent comments, also the library staff at Greenwich who have always been most helpful. My thanks, too, to my son Dan and my friends May Clarke and Jim Murray for struggling through a rather large first draft and Alan Rose for his help in obtaining many of the films on video. Also, my sister Tessa, for her proof reading, and Jacob Veale for his computer expertise. Finally, my partner Sarah for her continual encouragement and support and my daughters Hannah and Esther, who accepted that 'Dad was doing his thing.' in ABSTRACT This study is an examination of America's evolving sense of racial and national identity in the period from 1945 to the mid 1970s as refracted through Hollywood's representation of the American Civil War - a powerful event in American memory which still resonates today. Civil War films have been the subject of study by film studies specialists and historians but they have concentrated on the early years highlighting the iconic films The Birth of a Nation (1915) and Gone with the Wind (1939).

  • Hal Roach Honored by Museum
    No. 15 ^ |The Museum of Modern Art FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 11 West'53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart A QUARTER OF A CENTURY OF FILM ACCOMPLISHMENT: HAL ROACH HONORED BY MUSEUM Hal Roach, the producer who discovered and developed stars and directors such as Harold Lloyd, Charley Chase, Laurel and Hardy, Will Rogers, Our Gang, Leo McCarey, and George Stevens, will be honored by the presentation of nearly 100 of his films to be shown from February 12 through March 24 at The Museum of Modern Art. He will attend a private reception in the Museum Penthouse the evening preceding the tribute, which covers the period from 1915 to 1940, Mr. Roach's most productive years in film, though he continues to be active in television production to this day. Roach, also known for the Topper series, was a rival of the early comedy pio­ neer Mack Sennett, according to William K. Everson, who has assembled this retrospec­ tive. Mr. Everson, an authority on American film who teaches at the New School for Social Research and New York University, has just completed a book on Hal Roach, which the Museum is publishing concurrently with the Roach program. What sustained Roach's productions when the popularity of other comedies, such as Mack Sennett's, began to wane, was the reliance on construction, Everson points out, "Roach's world was serious and orderly...concerning i^tself far more with every­ day nightmares of frustration and embarrassment" than with the "time honored chase" or other standard sight gags.
