Pr()duced by Kermit Bloom- garden, who also presented "Death of a Salesman," "The Autumn Garden" is considered by many, Miss Hellman's AMERICAN finest writing. Starting with "The Children's Hour," a daring and enduring success, Miss Hellman has written the notable "The Little Foxes," "Watch on the Rhine," Fooos "The Searching Wind," and "Another Part of the Forest." Each of these of- fered sharp and eloquent comment on the world in which we live. In "The Autumn Garden," Miss Hell- man is concerned with 'a group of ten TASTE TREAT people, all except two of whom, are middle-aged, and their varying reaction when they return to a guest house in the South. This house recalls to all of them the hopes and ambitions of their 48 EAST AVENUE youth, and the degree to which these hopes have been realized or frustrated. Written with Miss Hellman's penetrat- ing knowledge of character, and with her brilliant pen, "The Autumn Garden" is a play to be seen. Featured in the cast supporting the stars are Emily Lawrence, Laura Pier- pont, Calvin Thomas, Theodore Newton, Margaret Barker, Murial Williams and Dickie Moore. Harold Clurman again has directed.

The message read: "A child asleep dreaming of Santa is not nearly as asleep as are we grownups who have lost our dreams and illu- sions ... How true! Here is more than an expression of the Yuletide season for here is a clue to a serious void in our present-day culture. We grownups have indeed lost our dreams and il- lusions. Even more serious is the obvious fact that the children of today are being robbed of the price- less possession of their imagination. The thieves in our midst are easily recognized; they are the forms of entertainment that have captured so much of our time and that of our children. A recent survey shows that in our metropolitan areas a child spends more hours before the television set than he does in the school room. The average American sees at least two movies a month (probably more in the large cities). The motion picture and its illegitimate offspring, television, by their very nature provide a literal rec- ord of all the eye can see, more than the ear can hear and far less than the mind can comprehend. Neither the motion picture nor TV leaves anything to the imagination. Not so in the living theatre! The natural limita- tions of the proscenium arch, the stylized settings, the division of time into acts and scenes: all these require imaginative cooperation from the audience. Without an active imagination the play-goer has lost the essence of the theatre and he has missed the thrill of. living the events and speaking the words with the actors. Lacking this imagination he will also miss the thrill of remembering in vivid detail all that filled the theatre.

  • In Kindergarten with the Author of WIT
    re p resenting the american theatre DRAMATISTS by publishing and licensing the works PLAY SERVICE, INC. of new and established playwrights. atpIssuel 4,aFall 1999 y In Kindergarten with the Author of WIT aggie Edson — the celebrated playwright who is so far Off- Broadway, she’s below the Mason-Dixon line — is performing a Mdaily ritual known as Wiggle Down. " Tapping my toe, just tapping my toe" she sings, to the tune of "Singin' in the Rain," before a crowd of kindergarteners at a downtown elementary school in Atlanta. "What a glorious feeling, I'm — nodding my head!" The kids gleefully tap their toes and nod themselves silly as they sing along. "Give yourselves a standing O!" Ms. Edson cries, when the song ends. Her charges scramble to their feet and clap their hands, sending their arms arcing overhead in a giant "O." This willowy 37-year-old woman with tousled brown hair and a big grin couldn't seem more different from Dr. Vivian Bearing, the brilliant, emotionally remote English professor who is the heroine of her play WIT — which has won such unanimous critical acclaim in its small Off- Broadway production. Vivian is a 50-year-old scholar who has devoted her life to the study of John Donne's "Holy Sonnets." When we meet her, she is dying of very placement of a comma crystallizing mysteries of life and death for ovarian cancer. Bald from chemotherapy, she makes her entrance clad Vivian and her audience. For this feat, one critic demanded that Ms. Edson in a hospital gown, dragging an IV pole.

  • Notes for Where the Sidewalk Ends
    IAP Film Series, January 2012: Five Émigré Directors and the Rise of Film Noir SCREENING #6: Where the Sidewalk Ends (96 minutes) Production Company Twentieth Century Fox / Produced by Otto Preminger US Release 7 July 1950 (New York) Director Otto Preminger: He was born in 1905, probably in a Ukrainian region of the Austro- Hungarian Empire, but possibly in Vienna; his family were middle-class Jews. His father became a leading prosecutor for the government, and the family relocated to Vienna in 1915. Otto studied law at the University of Vienna and got his degree in 1928; but by then he had begun a career in the theater, at first under the tutelage of Max Reinhardt. Starting as an actor (of moderate success), he moved into directing and also directed a few German-language films in the early 1930s. In 1935 he was invited by producer Joseph Schenck to come work at Fox in the USA, to which he agreed. Arriving in New York in 1936, he stopped off to direct a play, then went on to Hollywood. His work at Fox came to an abrupt halt in 1938, when he was fired by Zanuck while directing the “A-List” film Kidnapped. So he studied English and resumed a career directing plays in New York and elsewhere. He was called back to Fox in 1942, originally to act in various films. In 1944 he was hired by Zanuck to produce the controversial film version of Laura, eventually becoming its director. The success of this “scandalous” film noir led to his being hired to direct (and often to produce) 13 more films at Fox—the fine film Where the Sidewalk Ends being the next to last.

  • „Filmtitelgestaltung. Bewegte Typografie Und Grafikdesign Im Film an Beispielen Saul Bass’“
    DIPLOMARBEIT Titel der Diplomarbeit „Filmtitelgestaltung. Bewegte Typografie und Grafikdesign im Film an Beispielen Saul Bass’“ Verfasserin Verena Blöchl angestrebter akademischer Grad Magistra der Philosophie (Mag. phil.) Wien, 2014 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 317 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Theater-, Film- und Medienwissenschaft Betreuer: Mag. Dr. Otto Mörth Eidesstattliche Erklärung Ich erkläre hiermit an Eides Statt, dass ich die vorliegende Arbeit selbstständig und ohne Benutzung anderer als der angegebenen Hilfsmittel angefertigt habe. Die aus fremden Quellen direkt oder indirekt übernommenen Gedanken sind als solche kenntlich gemacht. Die Arbeit wurde bisher in gleicher oder ähnlicher Form keiner anderen Prüfungsbehörde vorgelegt und auch noch nicht veröffentlicht. Ort, Datum Unterschrift 3 Danksagung Mein äußerster Dank gilt Herrn Mag. Dr. Otto Mörth für die wertvolle Unterstützung und Zusammenarbeit. Ich bedanke mich herzlich bei meiner Familie, die mir während des Studiums unterstützend zur Seite stand. Besonderen Dank an Lena Huber-Huber für ihre kompetente Beratung bei grammatikalischen und stilistischen Fragen. Ein großes Dankeschön auch an Adrian Hügel für die moralische Unterstützung während der Erstellung dieser Arbeit. Des Weiteren bedanke ich mich bei Anselm Tröster für das große Interesse an meinem Thema und die motivierenden Worte. 5 Abstract / deutsch Diese Arbeit behandelt das Zusammenspiel von Typografie und Grafikdesign in Film- titelsequenzen und die Qualitäten, die daraus für die Filmerfahrung entstehen. Mit der vielfältigen Formensprache im Vorspann entstehen unterschiedliche Funktionen für die Filmrezeption, die ich exemplarisch an neun ausgewählten Werken von Saul Bass untersuche. Der Grafikdesigner und Regisseur leistete ab den 50er-Jahren einen bemerkenswerten Beitrag zur Entwicklung des Vorspanns. Er trug dazu bei, dass Filmtiteldesign als integraler Bestandteil der Filmstruktur aufgefasst wird.
