He wrote work deemed controversial in late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century Vienna where there was a growing hostility to works that were frank about sexuality rooted in an increasing sentiment of anti-Semitism. In a letter to Schnitzler, Sigmund Freud mused, “I have gained the impression that you have learned through intuition—although actually as a result of sensitive introspection—everything that I have had to unearth by laborious work on other persons.” He was a member of the avant-garde group Young Vienna (Jung-Wien), where he toyed with formal as well as social conventions. His 1900 novella Leutnant Gustl was the first German fiction to use the modernist technique, made famous by Virginia Woolf and James Joyce, stream-of-consciousness narration.

  • First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006
    First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006 Jonathan R. Polansky Stanton Glantz, PhD CENTER FOR TOBAccO CONTROL RESEARCH AND EDUCATION UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN FRANCISCO SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94143 April 2007 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Smoking among American adults fell by half between 1950 and 2002, yet smoking on U.S. movie screens reached historic heights in 2002, topping levels observed a half century earlier.1 Tobacco’s comeback in movies has serious public health implications, because smoking on screen stimulates adolescents to start smoking,2,3 accounting for an estimated 52% of adolescent smoking initiation. Equally important, researchers have observed a dose-response relationship between teens’ exposure to on-screen smoking and smoking initiation: the greater teens’ exposure to smoking in movies, the more likely they are to start smoking. Conversely, if their exposure to smoking in movies were reduced, proportionately fewer teens would likely start smoking. To track smoking trends at the movies, previous analyses have studied the U.S. motion picture industry’s top-grossing films with the heaviest advertising support, deepest audience penetration, and highest box office earnings.4,5 This report is unique in examining the U.S. movie industry’s total output, and also in identifying smoking movies, tobacco incidents, and tobacco impressions with the companies that produced and/or distributed the films — and with their parent corporations, which claim responsibility for tobacco content choices. Examining Hollywood’s product line-up, before and after the public voted at the box office, sheds light on individual studios’ content decisions and industry-wide production patterns amenable to policy reform.

Hunter, and Elisa Pezzotta Ten years ago those immersed in researching the life and work of Stanley Kubrick (1928-1999) were gifted a unique opportunity for fresh insights into his films and production methods. In March 2007 the Kubrick Estate – supervised by his executive producer and brother-in-law, Jan Harlan – donated the director’s vast archive to the University of Arts London and instigated a new wave of scholarly study into the director. The Stanley Kubrick Archive comprises the accumulated material at Childwickbury, the Kubrick family home near St Albans, from which he largely worked and where he maintained a comprehensive record of his films’ production and marketing, collated and stored in boxes. The catalogue introduction online testifies to the sheer size of the Archive, which is stored on over 800 linear metres of shelving:1 The Archive includes draft and completed scripts, research materials such as books, magazines and location photographs.

J’essaie de le rendre actuel et sensible à un vaste public. Aujourd’hui, il n’est pas vraiment dangereux de s’attaquer à des sujets comme celui-ci, alors qu’il y a quelques années, certaines personnes se seraient interposées. D’autre metteurs en scène s’attaquent aux problèmes actuels comme le Watergate: Alan J. Pakula vient de terminer Les hommes du président, avec aussi Robert Redford. Je crois qu’il s’agit là d’un prolongement de la série « politique-fiction »qui avait débuté dans les années soixante par exemple avec des films de John Frankenheimer (Sept jours en mai, Un crime dans la tête) Quelqu’un a écrit un article très intéressant sur ce qu’il a appelé la « paranoïa prophétique ».

  • ENGLISH DOSSIER DE PRESSE Stanley Kubrick
    “If it can be written, or thought, it can be filmed. A director is a kind of idea and taste machine ; a movie is a series of creative and technical decisions, and it‘s the director‘s job to make the right decisions as frequently as possible.” EDITORIAL Our flagship exhibition in 2011 is devoted to Stanley Kubrick (from 23 March to 31 July). It is the first time that La Cinémathèque française hosts a travelling exhibition not initiated by our teams but by those of another institution. This Kubrick exhibition owes its existence to the Deutsches Filmmuseum in Frankfurt and to Hans- Peter Reichmann, its Curator, who designed it in 2004 in close collaboration with Christiane Kubrick, Jan Harlan and The Stanley Kubrick Archive in London. Since 2004, the exhibition has opened with success in several cities: Berlin, Zurich, Gand, Rome and Melbourne, before coming to the Cinémathèque. The archives of Stanley Kubrick contain numerous and precious working documents: scenarios, correspondences, research documents, photos of film shoots, costumes and accessories. The exhibition, film after film, includes the unfinished projects: the Napoleon that Kubrick hoped to direct and his project for a film on the death camps, Aryan Papers . These materials allow us to get backstage and better understand the narrative and technical intentions of the director who was a demigod of world cinema, a secret and fascinating figure. The exhibition will be installed on two floors of the Frank Gehry building, on the 5 th and 7 th storeys, owing to the bulk of the materials exhibited, including large-scale models and interactive digital installations.
