THE LEGACY OF AMERICAN PHOTOJOURNALISM IN KEN BURNS’S VIETNAM WAR DOCUMENTARY SERIES Camille Rouquet LARCA/Paris Sciences et Lettres In his review of The Vietnam War, the 18-hour-long documentary series directed by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick released in September 2017, New York Times television critic James Poniewozik wrote: “The Vietnam War” is not Mr. Burns’s most innovative film. Since the war was waged in the TV era, the filmmakers rely less exclusively on the trademark “Ken Burns effect” pans over still images. Since Vietnam was the “living-room war,” played out on the nightly news, this documentary doesn’t show us the fighting with new eyes, the way “The War” did with its unearthed archival World War II footage.

  • The Edward R. Murrow of Docudramas and Documentary
    Media History Monographs 12:1 (2010) ISSN 1940-8862 The Edward R. Murrow of Docudramas and Documentary By Lawrence N. Strout Mississippi State University Three major TV and film productions about Edward R. Murrow‟s life are the subject of this research: Murrow, HBO, 1986; Edward R. Murrow: This Reporter, PBS, 1990; and Good Night, and Good Luck, Warner Brothers, 2005. Murrow has frequently been referred to as the “father” of broadcast journalism. So, studying the “documentation” of his life in an attempt to ascertain its historical role in supporting, challenging, and/or adding to the collective memory and mythology surrounding him is important. Research on the docudramas and documentary suggests the depiction that provided the least amount of context regarding Murrow‟s life (Good Night) may be the most available for viewing (DVD). Therefore, Good Night might ultimately contribute to this generation (and the next) having a more narrow and skewed memory of Murrow. And, Good Night even seems to add (if that is possible) to Murrow‟s already “larger than life” mythological image. ©2010 Lawrence N. Strout Media History Monographs 12:1 Strout: Edward R.

  • Spring 2021 Picks
    Spring 2021 Picks Adult Fiction The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows A World War II novel like no other, Shaffer and Barrow’s book is set on an island off the coast of England. When the German’s occupy the island, the residents devise a unique way to break curfew by starting a book club. The club is filled with an eccentric cast of characters who begin writing to an author on the English mainland. This story is filled with warmth and joy, and it will be treasured by many. The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh “The Victorian language of flowers was used to convey romantic expressions: honeysuckle for devotion, asters for patience, and red roses for love. But for Victoria Jones, it’s been more useful in communicating mistrust and solitude. After a childhood spent in the foster-care system, she is unable to get close to anybody, and her only connection to the world is through flowers and their meanings. Now eighteen and emancipated from the system with nowhere to go, Victoria realizes she has a gift for helping others through the flowers she chooses for them. But an unexpected encounter with a mysterious stranger has her questioning what’s been missing in her life. And when she’s forced to confront a painful secret from her past, she must decide whether it’s worth risking everything for a second chance at happiness.”” –Amazon.com My Hands Came Away Red by Lisa McKay A mission trip to Indonesia goes horribly wrong when civil war breaks out on a nearby island.

  • Summer 2020 Lineup
    NEW RELEASES SUMMER 2020 Coronavirus Pandemic FRONTLINE is working tirelessly to bring you the facts, perspectives and stories that explain this unprecedented time with five special programs. With the world reeling from the coronavirus outbreak, FRONTLINE presents a special report from Seattle—the first U.S. city struck by the virus and a bellwether for what was to hit the rest of the country. Veteran science reporter and FRONTLINE correspondent Miles O’Brien tells the inside story of Seattle’s fight to identify and contain the novel coronavirus, traveling through the locked-down city—from the hospital where patient one was treated to the nursing home where the outbreak exploded. In almost real time, doctors, patients and public health officials recount the dramatic story of how the unusually well-prepared city hoped that it had averted a crisis, then confronted the grim reality of the fast-spreading virus. The film shows how the federal government’s missteps early on impacted cities like Seattle, and highlights the contrast between the two Washingtons—between the Trump administration’s messaging in Washington, D.C., and the increasingly dire situation on the ground in Washington State. As the pandemic continues to take its toll, O’Brien has remained in Seattle to document the ongoing fight and its significance as a cautionary tale for the rest of the country. 1x60 Play Program Produced by Miles O’Brien for FRONTLINE. 2 COVID’s Hidden Toll FRONTLINE investigates how the COVID crisis has hit vulnerable immigrants and undocumented workers. The film features stories from the pandemic’s invisible victims, including crucial farm and meat-packing workers who lack protections and have been getting sick.

  • Ken Burns Regis Dialogue Formatted
    Ken Burns Regis Dialogue with Terrence Rafferty, 1991 Bruce Jenkins: Good evening. Let me welcome you. I'm Bruce Jenkins, the film video curator here at the Walker Arts Center. This is our first MacArthur dialogue for the fall season. It's also the very first time we've honored a non-fiction filmmaker with, not only a dialogue evening such as this, but also a fairly full scale retrospective. Bruce Jenkins: I just have to say, at the beginning, we have just gotten back from the printers these absolutely gorgeous brochures. They'll be at the back as you head out, so please take one. I think it's really the most complete material back matter on Ken Burns' work. So I urge you, don't forget to pick one of these up at the end. Ken Burns, of course, is no ordinary documentary film maker. In slightly more than a decade under the banner of his Florentine films, he has completely transformed our notion of no fiction film making, as well as giving us, I think, a much deeper appreciation of our own culture. Bruce Jenkins: This series is as much to show that there is life after The Civil War, which was an extraordinary success, as there is extraordinary film making before The Civil War. Those of you who were lucky enough to see on either PBS or occasionally, in screening, some of his earlier films, know that Brooklyn Bridge, for example, is the finest film yet made on architecture. Huey Long is maybe the most memorable portrait of an American politician I know of, and certainly the liveliest narrative I've seen in many a year about a true American original.
