    REVIEWS & PRESS J. Hoberman. On Jack Smith’s Flaming Creatures (and Other Secret-Flix of Cinemaroc). Granary Books, & Hip’s Road, 2001. • Grubbs, David. "Review of On Jack Smith's 'Flaming Creatures.' " Bookforum 9.1: 15. It's a shame that Ted Turner dropped out of the film-colorization business before tackling Flaming Creatures. I'm trying to imagine Jack Smith's washed-out, defiantly low-contrast 1963 film being given the full treatment. Flaming Creatures is the work for which Smith is best known, a film that landed exhibitors in a vortex of legal trouble and quickly became the most reviled of '60s underground features. As J. Hoberman writes, "Flaming Creatures is the only American avant-garde film whose reception approximates the scandals that greeted L'Age d'Or or Zéro de Conduite." Smith's self-described comedy in a "haunted movie studio" is a forty-two-minute series of attractions that include false starts, primping, limp penises, bouncing breasts, a fox-trot, an orgy, a transvestite vampire, an outsized painting of a vase, and perilous stretches of inactivity. The sound track juxtaposes Bartók, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, the Everly Brothers, and an audience-baiting minutes-long montage of screams. Still, one suspects that the greatest trespass may have been putting Smith's queer "creatures" on display. If Hoberman's monograph makes Smith's filmic demimonde less other-worldly—colorizes it, if without the Turner motive—it does so in a manner more akin to the 1995 restoration of Jacques Tati's 1948 Jour de Fête. Tati's film was shot simultaneously in color and in black and white; had the experimental Thomson-Color process worked at the time, it would have been the first French full-length color film.

    Italianità alternativa Published on iItaly.org (http://ftp.iitaly.org) Italianità alternativa Joey Skee* (January 28, 2010) “Who, or more precisely, what is an Italian American? To some self-appointed arbiters of italianità, the answer is: Roman Catholic, conservative, and indisputably heterosexual.” If we have learned anything from the ongoing scrutiny of the Italian-American “experience” it is that said experience is any thing but singular. Italian-American histories and cultures are diverse, multifaceted, and ever open to new interpretations and revisions. Author George De Stefano [2] began a 2001 book review in the John D. Calandra Italian American Institute’s social-science journal, the Italian American Review [3] (vol. 8, no.2), with a rhetorical question: “Who, or more precisely, what is an Italian American? To some self-appointed arbiters of italianità, the answer is: Roman Catholic, conservative, and indisputably heterosexual.” If we have learned anything from the ongoing scrutiny of the Italian-American “experience” it is that said experience is any thing but singular. Italian-American histories and cultures are diverse, multifaceted, and ever open to new interpretations and revisions.

It concludes that environmental hazards such as landslides have partiy-social causes, which are characteristic of the societies they affect, and any real accommodation with environmental hazards must involve radical social change. The dissertation analyzes the differing explanations for environmental hazards given by previous schools of thought. Passing to the empirical material to be examined using these ideas, it describes the current pattern of landslides in Basilicata and discusses whether the reported landslide hazard has increased during the twentieth century.
