    003.TAIT_20.1_TAIT 11-05-12 9:17 AM Page 20 R. COLIN TAIT ROBERT DE NIRO’S RAGING BULL: THE HISTORY OF A PERFORMANCE AND A PERFORMANCE OF HISTORY Résumé: Cet article fait une utilisation des archives de Robert De Niro, récemment acquises par le Harry Ransom Center, pour fournir une analyse théorique et histo- rique de la contribution singulière de l’acteur au film Raging Bull (Martin Scorcese, 1980). En utilisant les notes considérables de De Niro, cet article désire montrer que le travail de cheminement du comédien s’est étendu de la pré à la postproduction, ce qui est particulièrement bien démontré par la contribution significative mais non mentionnée au générique, de l’acteur au scénario. La performance de De Niro brouille les frontières des classes de l’auteur, de la « star » et du travail de collabo- ration et permet de faire un portrait plus nuancé du travail de réalisation d’un film. Cet article dresse le catalogue du processus, durant près de six ans, entrepris par le comédien pour jouer le rôle du boxeur Jacke LaMotta : De la phase d’écriture du scénario à sa victoire aux Oscars, en passant par l’entrainement d’un an à la boxe et par la prise de soixante livres. Enfin, en se fondant sur des données concrètes qui sont restées jusqu’à maintenant inaccessibles, en raison de la modestie et du désir du comédien de conserver sa vie privée, cet article apporte une nouvelle perspective pour considérer la contribution importante de De Niro à l’histoire américaine du jeu d’acteur.

  • Denzel Washington: America's Favorite Movie Star
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Denzel Washington: America’s Favorite Movie Star After two years at #1, Tom Hanks drops to #2, according to a new Harris Poll ROCHESTER, N.Y. – January 16, 2007 – Hollywood movie star Denzel Washington returns to the list of America’s favorite movie stars in dramatic fashion, taking the number one position after dropping off the top ten list in 2005. Dropping from number one to number two is Tom Hanks, while movie legend John Wayne remains in third place. Tough guy Clint Eastwood jumps up two spots to fourth place. These are the results of a nationwide Harris Poll of 1,147 U.S. adults surveyed online by Harris Interactive ® between December 12 and 18, 2006. Will Smith also joins the list this year, perhaps due to the recent success of his film, The Pursuit of Happyness . Smith not only joins the top ten for the first time, but does so tied for fifth place. While all the other stars are the same, they have changed places within the top ten. Some of these changes include: • Harrison Ford is the biggest mover as he drops seven places from tied for #3 to #10. This excludes him from the top five for the first time since 1997; • Julia Roberts is tied for #5, a spot held alone in 2005. She is still alone in one regard – this Pretty Woman is the only female to appear in the top ten; • Johnny Depp drops five spots on the list. In 2005, he was #2 and this time out he is tied for #7.

  • Denzel Washington Remains America's Favorite Movie Star
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Denzel Washington Remains America’s Favorite Movie Star Even Though He Hasn’t Made a Movie since 1976, John Wayne Remains on the List at Number Six ROCHESTER, N.Y. – January 15, 2008 – Whether it was his appearances in American Gangster or The Great Debaters, Denzel Washington scores the top position as America’s favorite movie star for the second year in a row on The Harris Poll’s annual favorite movie star list. In second place, also for the second year in a row, is Charlie Wilson’s War, or rather, Tom Hanks. Perhaps due to the success of the final Pirates of the Caribbean or his singing skills in Sweeney Todd, Johnny Depp moves from a seventh place tie to third place this year. Finishing out the top five are a Pretty Woman, Julia Roberts (#4), and one of the Men in Black, Will Smith (#5), who were each tied for fifth place on last year’s list. These are the results of a nationwide Harris Poll of 1,114 U.S. adults surveyed online by Harris Interactive® between December 4 and 12, 2007. Rounding out the top ten is one old standard and four movie stars who are new to the list this year, three returning after an absence and one on the list for the first time. In sixth place is John Wayne, who is the only movie star to appear on every Harris Poll top ten movie star list since it first began in 1994. And this is after having died in 1979! Tied for seventh on the list are Matt Damon, who’s Bourne Trilogy may have helped him make his first appearance on the list, and an old James Bond, Sean Connery.

  • Growing Pains Coming of Age Is a Subject That Never Gets Old
    Growing Pains Coming of age is a subject that never gets old. From sexual awakening to peer pressure to work responsibilities, it’s an endless source of material. In a collection of rare set shots, we see how generations of directors have handled it. LIFE COACHING: (above) Nicholas Ray started out shooting Rebel Without a Cause (1955), with James Dean and Natalie Wood, in black and white. But when the studio switched to color, he insisted that Dean wear the now-iconic red jacket. Ray researched the film by riding around with L.A. gangs. (opposite) David M. Evans had intended to use nine and 10-year-olds for The Sandlot (1993), based partially on his own childhood. But when he started casting, he quickly realized that the kids needed to be older. 54 dga quarterly PHOTOS: (LEFT) WARNER BROS./THE KOBAL COLLECTION; (RIGHT) 20TH CENTURY FOX/COURTESY AMPAS dga quarterly 55 STREETWISE: For Crooklyn (1994), loosely based on his own experiences with his GOLDEN GIRLS: Sofia Coppola wanted to shoot the lives of four sisters in The Virgin siblings growing up in Brooklyn, Spike Lee didn’t want to hire professional actors because Suicides (1999) as they would be observed from “the boy across the street.
