  • 1 Dreamboats, Boybands and the Perils of Showbiz: Pop and Film, 1956-1968 David Buckingham This Essay Is Part of a Larger Projec
    Dreamboats, Boybands and the Perils of Showbiz: Pop and Film, 1956-1968 David Buckingham This essay is part of a larger project, Growing Up Modern: Childhood, Youth and Popular Culture Since 1945. More information about the project, and illustrated versions of all the essays can be found at: https://davidbuckingham.net/growing-up-modern/. The first appearance of rock and roll music in film seems to have been something of an afterthought. When Richard Brooks’s Blackboard Jungle was released in 1955, the producers made a last-minute decision to accompany the opening and closing credits with an obscure B-side called ‘Rock Around the Clock’ by Bill Haley and the Comets. The record had been released the previous year with little success. Although an instrumental version of the tune does appear in the middle of the film, Blackboard Jungle is barely concerned with rock or pop music at all. In one notable scene, the delinquent teenagers trash their teacher’s treasured collection of jazz records; while in another, one of the students, Gregory Miller (played by Sidney Poitier) performs a gospel song with his black class-mates. However, the inclusion of Haley’s track made it an immediate chart hit; and it also contributed to the remarkable success of the film with teenage audiences. Indeed, the use of ‘Rock Around the Clock’ seems to have encouraged dancing and even wilder behaviour in cinemas, both in the US and in the UK. When the film was shown in South London in 1956, Teddy Boys in the audience reportedly rioted and slashed the seats; and this led to similar behaviour in cinemas around the country.

  • Thorpe's Malaya (1949)
    1 Malaya Reviewed by Garry Victor Hill Produced by Edwin H. Kopf. Directed by Richard Thorpe. Screenplay by Frank Fenton. Based on a story by Manchester Body. Cinematography by George J. Foly. Art Direction by Malcom Brown and Cedric Gibbons. Original Music by Bronislau Kaper. Music conducted by Andre Previn. Edited by Ben Lewis. Key Costumer: Irene Valles. Cinematic length: 98 minutes. Distributed by MGM. Cinematic release: December 1949 (USA) elsewhere mostly around the middle of 1950: DVD release 2002. Check for ratings initially PGA. Rating 90%. All images are taken from the public domain and Wikipedia with permission. 2 Cast Spencer Tracy: Cannahan James Stewart: John Royer Sidney Greenstreet: The Dutchman John Hodiak: Kellar the government agent Lionel Barrymore: Manchester the editor Gilbert Roland : Romano Richard Loo: Colonel Tomura Roland Winters: Bruno Gruber the German plantation owner Ian MacDonald: Carlos Tassuma as the Brazilian plantation owner Tom Helmore: Mattison, the English plantation owner David Fresco: Barracuda Russell Hicks: board member Luther Davis : the captain Lieutenant Glenson: De Forest Kelly Review Malaya has never gained the status of a famous film classic, but it should have. Perhaps film audiences had watched enough WW2 secret mission movies by the time of the film’s release in 1949/1950. Another problem must be that films of this era without a strong romance are rarely considered great or popular, although it made a comfortable profit and got favourable reviews. The similarities to Casablanca (1942) and To Have and Have Not (1945) would have made it seem unoriginal and a lesser film. Once again we have the exotic bar in an exotic wartime locale where the desperate, the colourful and those with hidden agendas meet.

  • Betty Burbridge – Women Film Pioneers Project
    9/4/2020 Betty Burbridge – Women Film Pioneers Project Betty Burbridge Also Known As: Elizabeth Burbridge Lived: December 12, 1894 or December 7, 1895 - September 19, 1987 Worked as: continuity, film actress, original story writer, scenario writer, screenwriter Worked In: United States by Katherine A. Johnson In 1941, publications like Life and The Saturday Evening Post featured an advertisement for Smith-Corona typewriters. Presenting an image of screenwriter Betty Burbridge at work, the advertisement described her as “Gene Autry’s script writer,” having “typed her way to the top” (117). Although she did, indeed, work with Autry on many films for Republic Pictures during the 1930s and 1940s, becoming a prominent screenwriter for B-movie Westerns in particular, Burbridge’s career in Hollywood started long before that. While many recognize her success within the field of screenwriting—particularly as a woman writing Westerns—they simultaneously fail to acknowledge the length of her career and the breadth of her work in the American movie industry. In fact, a 1942 article based on an interview with Burbridge suggests the writer’s career in Westerns, and film in general, only truly began in the 1930s: Masculinity-Plus—that’s the movie cowpuncher-hero. And, of course, you reason all these good swashbuckling, hard-riding, hard-hitting yarns must be written by a man. But that’s where you’re wrong! Some of the most popular Western stories today are written by a red-headed gal who, until she began writing them, didn’t know the front from the hind-end of a saddle and had never ridden a horse in her life.
