CINÉMA RETROUVÉ | Robert Mulligan Robert Mulligan Des ombres à la lumière Jean-Pierre Coursodon Un des cinéastes les plus sous-estimés de sa génération, Robert En 1956, un producteur débutant, Alan Pakula, acquiert les Mulligan a souvent été jugé avec une réticence pouvant aller droits de l’autobiographie du base-balleur Jim Piersall, choisit jusqu’au souverain mépris d’un Jacques Rivette qui le traita, comme réalisateur Mulligan, homme de télévision dont ce sera en 1963, de « laborieux director »1.

The Green Sheet and Opposition to American Motion Picture Classification in the 1960S
The Green Sheet and Opposition to American Motion Picture Classification in the 1960s By Zachary Saltz University of Kansas, Copyright 2011 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Film and Media Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. John Tibbetts ________________________________ Dr. Michael Baskett ________________________________ Dr. Chuck Berg Date Defended: 19 April 2011 ii The Thesis Committee for Zachary Saltz certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: The Green Sheet and Opposition to American Motion Picture Classification in the 1960s ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. John Tibbetts Date approved: 19 April 2011 iii ABSTRACT The Green Sheet was a bulletin created by the Film Estimate Board of National Organizations, and featured the composite movie ratings of its ten member organizations, largely Protestant and represented by women. Between 1933 and 1969, the Green Sheet was offered as a service to civic, educational, and religious centers informing patrons which motion pictures contained potentially offensive and prurient content for younger viewers and families. When the Motion Picture Association of America began underwriting its costs of publication, the Green Sheet was used as a bartering device by the film industry to root out municipal censorship boards and legislative bills mandating state classification measures. The Green Sheet underscored tensions between film industry executives such as Eric Johnston and Jack Valenti, movie theater owners, politicians, and patrons demanding more integrity in monitoring changing film content in the rapidly progressive era of the 1960s. Using a system of symbolic advisory ratings, the Green Sheet set an early precedent for the age-based types of ratings the motion picture industry would adopt in its own rating system of 1968.

INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

Film and Politics Winter 2018
Political Science 410 Film and Politics Winter 2018 Professor Richard Davis 754 SWKT x2-7503 [email protected] Office Hours: Tuesdays 9-10: 45 am or by appointment Course Description This course explores the use of a mass medium - film - as a vehicle for communicating messages about political institutions and processes and the elites (primarily politicians) who are associated with them. Film is a new medium in the history of the world. One hundred years ago, film was a newly created vehicle for communicating with the mass audience. Today, mass market films reach hundreds of millions of people worldwide. This class is designed to analyze how directors use film to affect or reinforce political views or how they intentionally or unconsciously reflect certain ideas about politics in their films. We will address film’s portrayal of politicians, political institutions, political organizations, and political processes. The films we will survey primarily are feature films designed for a mass market. All have been released for theatre viewing. The questions we will answer over the semester center on the political motives of the film's director and then the ways these motives are transmitted through plot line, dialogue, music, visual images, camera angles, and various other cinematic techniques. Some questions we will continually ask throughout the semester include: What are the unstated assumptions of the film? What is the purpose of the film? From whose perspective is the story told? What other perspectives are not shown? Who is the hero (heroes) of the film? What political points does the director make? What is the historical and political context shaping the film? To what extent did the film affect the larger political environment? Course Objectives Students will be able to discern the existence of political messages of film, both intentional and unintentional.

P. F. Não Matem a Cotovia – 1962
P. f. não matem a cotovia – 1962 Título original: To kill a mockingbird Realizador: Robert Mulligan Argumento: Adaptação do livro de Harper Lee Actores principais: Gregory Peck, Mary Badham, Phillip Alford, John Megna, Frank Overton Música: Elmer Bernstein. Produtor: Alan J. Pakula Resumo O filme tem a particularidade de ser uma adaptação do livro homónimo e autobiográfico de Harper Lee – premiada com o Prémio Pulitzer – e que se tornou um clássico da literatura inglesa - não apenas americana. É, além disso, um livro de leitura obrigatória em muitas escolas americanas e inglesas e de acordo com a publicidade, tornou-se no livro mais vendido nos EUA. A acção decorre no Alabama dos anos trinta e tem a particularidade de se desenrolar à volta do respeitado advogado Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck – o mesmo advogado do “Caso Paradine”) e da sua filha “Scout” de seis anos. Todavia, o livro (mais que o filme) vai muito para além do caso judicial e apresenta um retrato nostálgico mas vivo de uma amizade improvável e de toda uma comunidade dividida e afectada por tensões raciais. A crítica For the most part, Mulligan's style is subdued. He avoids grandstanding and allows the emotional power of the story to work without overt manipulation. The strongest piece of evidence of this arises in the aftermath of the court scene. Atticus has lost, but has fought valiantly, and, as he gathers his paper and leaves the building, the black observers rise and silently salute him. There is no clapping and the music score does not intrusively demand that we understand that this is an important moment in what it says about justice and race relations.
