LONG SUMMARY Molly Shannon plays Emily Dickinson in the dramatic comedy "​ Wild Nights with Emily​." The poet’s persona, popularized since her death, became that of a reclusive spinster – a delicate wallflower, too sensitive for this world. This film explores her vivacious, irreverent side that was covered up for years — most notably Emily’s lifelong romantic relationship with another woman (Susan Ziegler). After Emily died, a rivalry emerged when her brother's mistress (Amy Seimetz) along with editor T.W.

In the years since its first performance at the Celebration Theater in Los Angeles, the staged version of “Naked Boys Singing” has become an international phenomenon, playing successfully in more than 40 cities and in six languages all over the globe. Director Troy Christian has restaged the play for the film and come up with new arrangements for the original songs. The opening song, “Gratuitous Nudity,” is written and performed in such a sense of fun as to help the audience get over any nervousness they might have about the nudity. Before you know it, most people forget the performers are still naked, well, kind-of, but of course, that’s one of the points made in this light- hearted study of nudity, what we think of it and how we react to it. Naked Boys Singing! is a fun, joyous, and even liberating experience, guaranteed to touch your heart in places and leave you with a smile on your face. You may even find yourself afterwards singing some of the songs in the shower.

  • Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's Adapted Screenplays
    Absorbing the Worlds of Others: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s Adapted Screenplays By Laura Fryer Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of a PhD degree at De Montfort University, Leicester. Funded by Midlands 3 Cities and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. June 2020 i Abstract Despite being a prolific and well-decorated adapter and screenwriter, the screenplays of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are largely overlooked in adaptation studies. This is likely, in part, because her life and career are characterised by the paradox of being an outsider on the inside: whether that be as a European writing in and about India, as a novelist in film or as a woman in industry. The aims of this thesis are threefold: to explore the reasons behind her neglect in criticism, to uncover her contributions to the film adaptations she worked on and to draw together the fields of screenwriting and adaptation studies. Surveying both existing academic studies in film history, screenwriting and adaptation in Chapter 1 -- as well as publicity materials in Chapter 2 -- reveals that screenwriting in general is on the periphery of considerations of film authorship. In Chapter 2, I employ Sandra Gilbert’s and Susan Gubar’s notions of ‘the madwoman in the attic’ and ‘the angel in the house’ to portrayals of screenwriters, arguing that Jhabvala purposely cultivates an impression of herself as the latter -- a submissive screenwriter, of no threat to patriarchal or directorial power -- to protect herself from any negative attention as the former. However, the archival materials examined in Chapter 3 which include screenplay drafts, reveal her to have made significant contributions to problem-solving, characterisation and tone.

  • Program Updates from the VP and Program Director Doron Weber
    June 2017 Program Updates from the VP and Program Director Doron Weber FILM Sloan Presents World Premiere of Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story at Tribeca Film Festival Sloan and Tribeca Film Institute co-hosted the world premiere screening of Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story as part of the Foundation’s signature 14-year film partnership with Tribeca. The sold-out screening was followed by an all-female panel of scientists and filmmakers, including Oscar-winning actress and executive producer Susan Sarandon, award- winning actress and producer Diane Kruger, director Alex Dean, patent attorney Patricia Rogowski, and UCLA Associate Professor and electrical engineer Danijela Cabric. (The panel is pictured at left with Sloan Vice President, Programs and Program Director Doron Weber.) Sloan funded the film with a major production grant in 2015 for an American Masters documentary on the remarkable life and scientific achievements of Hedy Lamarr. Based on the Sloan-supported book Hedy’s Folly by Richard Rhodes and produced by Susan Sarandon and her company Reframed Pictures, Bombshell tells the little-known story of Lamarr, a major Hollywood star from the 1930s through the 1950s, who was also a pioneering inventor. Together with composer George Antheil, she developed a key “frequency-hopping” innovation that led to future advances like Wi-Fi and cell phones. The film features original material, including a newly discovered audio interview with Lamarr that serves as a voiceover. Sloan has long supported books, films, and plays about Lamarr, beginning with an Ensemble Studio Theatre/Sloan commission in 2000 of the play Frequency Hopping by Elyse Singer, produced in New York in 2008.

Thank-you. http://www.themjcast.com/episode-064-vincent-paterson-special/ Q (The MJCast): We got something pretty cool today to share with everyone, haven't we? Jamon (The MJCast): Yeah, we do. We've got an interview with one of Michael's chief collaborators, an amazing choreographer by the name of Vincent Paterson. He has a documentary that is titled "The Man Behind the Throne", and I think that's a really accurate way of describing him. He's a guy that often isn't in the limelight around Michael's career, but is somebody that had a crucial, crucial role in the in the visual aspects of a lot of Michael's art. Q: And a huge footprint in pop culture, I believe, so-- Jamon: Absolutely. Q: Yeah, well, I guess we should just get to the show. Jamon: Let's do it! [Intro] Q: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the MJCast! I'm Q, and I'm here today with my co-host and Jamon Bull. Now, when people talk about Michael Jackson's career, names often mentioned: studio geniuses Berry Gordy, Quincy Jones, and Bruce Swedien. For me, a name that should certainly be mentioned right alongside, and of just as much importance is choreographer and director Vincent Paterson. Jamon: Yeah, Vincent Paterson began his career with Michael working as an assistant choreographer and lead dancer on the "Beat It" and "Thriller" short films, before continuing on to ideate and choreograph the timeless masterpiece of film "Smooth Criminal".
