  • Music and History in Italian Film Melodrama, 1940-2010
    Between Soundtrack and Performance: Music and History in Italian Film Melodrama, 1940-2010 By Marina Romani A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Barbara Spackman, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Linda Williams Professor Mia Fuller Summer 2015 Abstract Between Soundtrack and Performance: Music and History in Italian Film Melodrama, 1940-2010 by Marina Romani Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Barbara Spackman, Chair Melodrama manifests itself in a variety of forms – as a film and theatre practice, as a discursive category, as a mode of imagination. This dissertation discusses film melodrama in its visual, gestural, and aural manifestations. My focus is on the persistence of melodrama and the traces it leaves on post-World War II Italian cinema: from the Neorealist canon of the 1940s to works that engage with the psychological and physical, private, and collective traumas after the experience of a totalitarian regime (Cavani’s Il portiere di notte, 1974), to postmodern Viscontian experiments set in a 21st-century capitalist society (Guadagnino’s Io sono l’amore, 2009). The aural dimension is fundamental as an opening to the epistemology of each film. I pay particular attention to the presence of operatic music – as evoked directly or through semiotic displacement involving the film’s aesthetic and expressive figures – and I acknowledge the existence of a long legacy of practical and imaginative influences, infiltrations and borrowings between the screen and the operatic stage in the Italian cinematographic tradition.

HART William S. Hart came to the movies in 1914 from a long line of theatrical ex­ perience, mostly Shakespearean and while to many he is the strong, silent Western hero of film he is also the peer of John Ford as a major force in shaping and developing this genre we enjoy, the Western. In 1889 in what is to become Oklahoma Territory the Cherokee Strip is just a graz­ ing area owned by Indians and worked day and night be the itinerant cowboys called 'tumbleweeds'. Alas, it is the end of the old West as the homesteaders are moving in . Hart becomes involved with a homesteader's daughter and her evil brother who has a scheme to jump the line as "sooners".

  • Stanlio & Ollio
    STANLIO & OLLIO Volerelaluna.it 08/04/2019 di: Edoardo Peretti Stanlio & Ollio sono due icone, due figure che giocano nel campo della mitologia collettiva. Sono conosciuti da chiunque e amati da molti, a livelli che nella storia del cinema comico, non solo muto, sono stati raggiunti forse solamente dal vagabondo Charlot. Questa fama diffusa ha spesso però portato a una rilettura del loro cinema parziale, elegiaca e dolce tanto quanto imprecisa e imperfetta, come tipico della memoria scolpita dai ricordi delle visioni dell’infanzia. La memoria dei due è stata in qualche modo confinata ai vari «Brutto Stiupìdo», ai piagnucolii di Stanlio, ai camera look e alle urla di dolore, rabbia e rassegnazione di Ollio e agli altri tormentoni visivi e lessicali. Il loro destino postumo è stato differente da quello, mettiamo, di Buster Keaton, la cui conoscenza è più limitata, ma anche più precisa e consapevole. La loro memoria più diffusa è, inoltre, una memoria perlopiù sonora, con i cortometraggi muti realizzati nel biennio 1927/1929 rimasti parzialmente nel dimenticatoio, ma in realtà importanti per come i due hanno affinato l’intesa e le caratteristiche della loro poetica; a partire dalla “slow burn“, passando per le deformazioni fisiche di oggetti e corpi, fino ad arrivare al modo particolare, all’insegna della stasi, con cui il loro cinema raccontava la guerra tra individuo e contesto tipica della comicità muta. Tre sono i filoni principali della loro filmografia; le “work situation comedy” – dove improvvisavano un lavoro con effetti devastanti (Finishing touch [1927], Big Business [1929], Wrong again [1929]), The music box (1932) e Busy bodies (1933) –, i film in cui convivevano in maniera goffamente cameratesca (Leave ‘em laughing [1928], They go boom [1929] e Laughing gravy [1930]) e le cosiddette “commedie matrimoniali”, dove erano vittime di consorti arpie e dove il caos era creato dai loro tentativi di svicolare dal loro controllo o nascondere magheggi (The purple moment [1928], Should married man go home? [1928], Chickens come home [1931]).
