  • Chicago (1927)
    Closing Night Gala Sunday 26th March | Screening 20:00 Chicago Dir. Frank Urson & Cecil B.DeMille (uncredited) | USA | 1927 | 1h 58m With: Phyllis Haver, Victor Varconi, Virginia Bradford Performing live: Stephen Horne (piano, accordion) & Frank Bockius (percussion) Chicago is the thoroughly modern tale of a publicity hungry, headline grabbing anti-heroine, as addicted to her own reflection as today’s popular culture is to the Selfie. Roxie Hart is the iconic free-spirited 1920’s flapper transformed into a destructively willful, reckless, self-centred and amoral media darling. Taken to the extreme, she’s the troubling threat to the establishment posed by a generation of young women flaunting social conventions, dress codes and manners, enjoying sexual freedom, self-determination and demanding what they most want out of life. Phyllis Haver (1899-1960) plays Roxie to perfection in a sparkling performance of devious charm, ruthless determination and brilliant comic timing. Tonight is a rare opportunity to rediscover her talent and celebrate the work of an almost forgotten star. Haver began her career in cinema accompanying silent films on piano, became a Mack Sennett Bathing Beauty and then got her big break as an actress, appearing in over 35 films for the Sennett Studios from 1916-20 before signing with DeMille-Pathé. She worked with some of the most revered artists of her day including Buster Keaton, Lon Chaney, Howard Hawks, Raoul Walsh and D.W. Griffith. There’s no doubt that Haver’s star quality and comedic flair elevate Chicago above a simple black and white morality tale. Her career defining performance was praised by critics as “astoundingly fine”, an impressive combination of “comedy and tragedy”.

  • Cecil B. Demille and the Art Ofapplied Suggestibility
    Cecil B. DeMille and the Art ofApplied Suggestibility By Anton Karl Kozlovic Spring 2011 Issue of KINEMA CECIL B. DE MILLE AND THE ART OF APPLIED SUGGESTIBILITY: VIOLENCE, SEX AND FALSE MEMORIES WITHIN HIS BIBLICAL (AND OTHER) CINEMA Abstract Legendary producer-director Cecil B. DeMille is an unsung auteur who helped co-found both Hollywood and Paramount studios and became America’s pre-eminent biblical filmmaker. He employed many artistic strategies, but none as politically astute as the deliberate engineering of false memories in a deliberate act of applied suggestibility. This trademark effort allowed DeMille to achieve desired audience reactions whilst simultaneously avoiding censorship problems and moral vigilantes who thought they saw objectionable things in his movies but which were not actually there. Consequently, selected DeMille films and the associated critical literature were inspected, reviewed and integrated into the text to enhance narrative coherence utilizing humanist film criticism as the guiding analytical lens. It was concluded that DeMille was a master filmmaker and that his cinematic oeuvre warrants a more thoughtful re-evaluation than evidenced to date. Further research into DeMille studies is therefore highly warranted, warmly recommended and already long overdue. Introduction: The DeMillean Genesis of an Aesthetic Phenomenon Producer-director(1) Cecil B. DeMille(2) (1881-1959), affectionately known as ”CB,” was a seminal cofounder of Hollywood, a progenitor of Paramount studios, and an icon of American movies who pioneered numerous innovations in both the arts and sciences of the cinema throughout his seventy-feature film history (Birchard; Cherchi Usai and Codelli; DeMille and Hayne; Edwards; Essoe and Lee; Eyman; Higashi Guide, Culture; Higham; Koury; Louvish; Noerdlinger; Orrison; Ringgold and Bodeen).

  • AFL Coaching Newsletter - May 2010
    AFL Coaching Newsletter - May 2010 Coach AFL this month goes to Leigh Matthews for advice on how to handle a significant loss. Jimmy Bartel gives his perspective on the impact and value of junior coaches. We go to Wayne Goldsmith to consider the questions parents want to know as their children commence their involvement in football for another year. We provide a drill that will improve your player‟s vision, reflexes and ball handling. The newsletter provides an update on the AIS/AFL Academy tour to South Africa and the female coach level 2 scholarship holders. There are updates from states and a calendar of state coaching events coming up. HOW TO HANDLE A DRUBBING By Leigh Matthews The fact that the six-month AFL season is more like a marathon than a sprint is really self-evident. It is a theme that will be pushed in a large variety of ways and means by all 16 coaches. The reality is that while each round provides a glimpse of what is to come, ultimately a win or a loss is the only tangible result that survives into the months ahead. Collingwood fell in by a solitary point against the unfancied Demons, but still all importantly gained their second win and got the valuable four points. Melbourne, despite a gallant performance, still came away without the win. Once the final siren sounds and the game is decided, it is all about stimulating ongoing optimum performance. A big part of the coaching art is to react to the post-game mood and then set the tone and agenda for the week ahead.

Working with Martha Graham was for me a most rewarding artistic venture and is directly responsible for the current collaboration. When I received a telephone call last spring from Miss Graham informing me that the Louisville Orchestra would commission a composer of her choice for her engagement, I had no inten- tion of adding to my already heavy commitments. However, as the telephone conversation progressed and as the better part of an hour was consumed, my resistance grew weaker and suddenly I found myself discussing the possible form the work could take. Actually, my reason for wanting to do the work was not only the welcome opportunity of writing another piece for Miss Graham, but also the opportunity of employing the full OGRAPHY BY MARTHA GRAHAM.
