Cinelandia Films u 1 5 0 6 -A • j - . í- V ' ■/ Ayuntamiento de Madrid LA MARAVILLA DE UN CARRETE MENOR H í M P L E A N D O l o s C A ­ RRETES corrientes, no se podía construir una Kodak menor sin sacrificar su eficacia. Por lo tanto, diseñamos un carrete nuevo, para película de 8 exposi­ ciones en vez de 6. Y de este carrete menor ha salido una Kodak nueva, m ás eficaz. L a K O D A K SIX-16, que así se llama, toma fotografías de 6.5 x 11 cm., y es apenas mayor que las cámaras para “fotos” de ó X 9 cm. Nueva además por su estilo moderno, la facilidad con que se carga y su sen­ cillez de manejo. la Kodak Six-16 es, en lodo, de una novedad intrigante. Su precio con objetivo Kodak Anastigmá­ tico /.6.3, constituye una sorpresa. La Kodak Six-20 es lo mismo que la anterior, en todo menos en el tamaño de sus fotografías, que miden 6 x 9 cm. Ambas se pueden obtener en variedad de objetivos y obturadores, según los gustos ... y bolsillos. F á c i l d e c a r g a r . El nuevo res- paldoy el nuevo m ecanism o pura ¡ C l i c !

Ayuntamiento de Madrid CARTA DE ESPAÑA ¿Quiere usted ser estrella de la pan­ talla? Así verá un anuncio que en grandes lineas y en lugar céntrico publica repe­ tidamente un diario madrileño. Las con­ diciones.que deben .reunir las aspirantes, y que en letra diminuta siguen a la suges­ tiva invitación, son insignificantes: “dos fotografías, en “maillot” una y en busto la otra.” El premio consiste en un con­ trato con unos estudios parisinos por valor de una importante cantidad, de la que se adelantarán mil pesetas en el mo­ mento de hacerse público el fallo en con­ cepto de garantía. Además, no solamen­ te es uno el premio o contrato que se otorgará en el concurso, sino varios, se­ gún sean las cualidades fotogénicas de las señoritas concursantes. El éxito, naturalmente, ha sido rotun­ do. El periódico que patrocina la en­ cuesta ha recibido a cientos las fotogra­ fías. Las consultas y aclaraciones han asediado e incomunicado su edificio. Las recomendaciones parecen estrellarse ante la incógnita impenetrable de los que for­ marán el tribunal . Mae Clarke, mientras hace la película “Impatient Maiden” para la Universal Pictures, en su camarín oye el radie Clarion Junior. Y llega el día del concurso.

No picture star in the world but Greta Garbo has been able to keep her private life so nearly a closed book. The stories written about the great Swedish star tell almost nothing about the real Garbo as she is to-day. Very little is known about her childhood in Sweden. “I was born. I had a father and mother. I lived in a house. I went to school. What does it matter?” she says in answer to questions about her early life. During her romance with Jack Gilbert, Garbo did give a few interviews.

Each volume concentrates on a set of films from a different national, regional or, in some cases, cross-cultural cinema which constitute a particular tradition.

The book draws key distinctions between the local, regional, national and transnational conceptual approaches in both representational and industrial terms. Alongside the Dardenne brothers, this book considers four promising Francophone Belgian filmmakers who have received limited critical attention in academic publications on contemporary European cinema: Joachim Lafosse, Olivier Masset-Depasse, Lucas Belvaux and Bouli Lanners. Exploring these filmmakers’ themes of post-industrialism, paternalism, the fractured nuclear family and spatial dynamics, as well as their work in the more commercial road movie and polar genres, Jamie Steele analyses their stylistic continuities and filiation.

  • Adela Rogers St. Johns
    Adela Rogers St. Johns Also Known As: Nora Adela Rogers, Adela Rogers Saint Johns, Adela Rogers St. John Lived: May 20, 1894 - August 10, 1988 Worked as: journalist, novelist, screenwriter, source author, writer Worked In: United States by Anne Morey Adela Rogers St. Johns delighted in the fact that James Quirk of Photoplay called her “the mother-confessor of Hollywood” (St. Johns 1976, 11). Her California birth, close association with William Randolph Hearst, and unconventional upbringing gave her an unusual vantage point on the social mores of Hollywood as was born in the 1910s and assumed its mature form in the 1920s. Indeed, St. Johns may be said to have been the most influential of the chroniclers of the Hollywood story of rise and fall inasmuch as she wrote the narrative that became the template for the motion picture What Price Hollywood? (1932) and its later iterations as A Star Is Born (1937, 1954, 1976). She both reported on Hollywood and fictionalized the lives of the stars she covered; thus her significance was as an observer of Hollywood rather than as a participant in it. St. Johns was the daughter of noted defense attorney Earl Rogers, who raised her without the help of his estranged wife, which may explain the daughter’s claim to have no attachment to her mother (Chance 311), a situation that figures in her novel about a free-thinking daughter of an alcoholic lawyer, first adapted as A Free Soul (1926) and later filmed with Norma Shearer in 1931. Through her father, St. Johns became acquainted with various “sporting” types: bootleggers, gamblers, and the prizefighter she said she received her last spanking for kissing (St.
