Milos Forman: the Evolution of a Filmmaker MILOS FORMAN: THE EVOLUTION OF A FILMMAKER By THOMAS JAY SLATER \) Bachelor of Arts Michigan State University East Lansing, Michigan 1978 Master of Arts University of Maryland College Park, Maryland 1981 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May, 1985 MILOS FORMAN: THE EVOLUTI A FILMMAKER Thesis Approved P.A~.~irr~Thesis A~er- --- i i 123356'7 C 0 P Y R I G H T by Thomas Jay Slater Hay 11, 1985 PREFACE Despite the fact that Milos Forman is one of the most successful filmmakers in the world today, no comprehensive analysis of his work presently exists. The most thorough study conducted thus far (by Leonard Lipton in 1974) does not include any of his last four major films, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975), Hair (1979), Ragtime (1980), and Amadeus (1984). Two of these films, Cuckoo's Nest and Amadeus, have won 11 0scars 11 as Best Picture. For his popularity alone, Milos Forman is a director who deserves close attention, but this factor is not the lone reason for his significance. Through ten films over a twenty-one year period, Milos Forman has maintained a consistent vision of the world and a recognizable pair of themes. He continually shows that man has oppressive tendencies, but also the ability to strive for freedom within social limitations. Individuals, in fact, have a responsibility to work towards their own fulfillment, and perhaps, through enough separate efforts, institutions may eventually become less restrictive. These ideas are constant in Forman's films, but his ability to continually give them new relevance is what makes him one of the most important directors of the present era. This study will reveal r~ilos Forman's ability to achieve both a consistent vision and steady evolution in his work by examining his life, his creative methods, and his films. I would like to express my deepest thanks to my major adviser, Dr. Peter C. Rollins, who has guided me through my career at Oklahoma i i i State and this dissertation. I would also like to thank Dr. Leonard J. Leff for his contributions to my film studies over the last four years and steady help and advice, both solicited and unsolicited. Without these two men, my academic career would not be at the point it is today. I honestly cannot thank them enough. The successful completion of this study would also have not been possible without the generous cooperation of Milos Forman and his colleagues Arnost Lustig, Josef Skvorecky, and Michael Weller.- Each of these individuals were more than willing to answer all questions as fully and honestly as possible. Their completely unself-conscious cooperation proves that they are artists primarily because they seek to enlighten others and share their ideas. Finally, and most importantly, I must also thank my family. This work is dedicated to the memory of my father, Garrett Slater. He never liked films, but he taught me to work. I hope that this effort pleases him. My mother, Bertha Slater, shares my gratitude. This work is also dedicated to my loving wife, Mary Ann, and my beautiful daughter, Gretchen Anna. This study does not even begin to repay what I owe them. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page I. AN OVERVIEW OF FORMAN 1S LIFE AND CAREER. I I.

CONCLUSIONS: THE MESSAGE OF MILOS FORMAN. 246 BIBLIOGRAPHY. 254 FILMOGRAPHY . 267 v CHAPTER ONE AN OVERVIEW OF FORMAN'S LIFE AND CAREER Over a twenty-one year period, Milos Forman has built an enviable directorial career. Of his nine features, four have been nominated for major Academy Awards: Loves of a Blonde (1965), The Firemen's Ball (1967), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975), and Amadeus (1984). Each of the last two films captured the Bes~ Director award for him and also won as Best Picture. Forman's success is especially admirable because of the honesty in his work. His films contain some qualities that are not very reassuring. The heroes never succeed and are not even very appealing, social leaders are either corrupt or incompetent, and the conclusion presents no clear resolution or promise for a better future. Yet, Forman is basically an optimist. The endings of his films provide a reason for hope, even though they do not suggest that much will ever change. 1 These seemingly contradictory ideas both find their basis in Forman's focus on individual rights and responsibilities. 2 Most of his films examine a clash between a solitary person and a restrictive society. In all of his Czech films (Forman was born in Czechoslovakia and lived there until 1967) except for The Firemen's Ball, the main character is a young person seeking to find his or her identity while also attempting to stay within society's limitations. However, the vague and confusing nature of society's rules, geared more towards 2 preserving order than allowing individual development, is a major problem for each youngster. So, no matter how much the main characters in Competition (1963), Black Peter (1963), and Loves of a Blonde attempt to do what they think is being demanded of them, they are continually frustrated. The rules simply do not make sense. In The Firemen's Ball, Forman shifted his focus to show how the self-centered manipula- tion of power by those in control affects the elderly as well as the young. Forman's concern for the young and the old in his films demon­ strates his compassion for those who lack power in society, whose lives are run by forces beyond their contro1. 3 Forman even demonstrates sympathy for those who are responsible. Though always foolish, they are also understandably human and fallible. The main characters in Forman's American films also attempt to express themselves within a highly structured and restrictive society. They too fight a social system more concerned with maintaining order than providing personal freedom. Forman's heroes thus demonstrate his philosophy that social institutions must be made humanitarian in their orientation and reminded of their purpose to serve people rather than the system. In this sense, the heroes are all admirable, but each of them fails because he lacks knowledge about his environment. Forman always emphasizes that freedom and responsibility are inseparable, and those who do not understand their world, for whatever reason, must pay a price. Larry Tyne in Taking Off (1971), Randle Patrick McMurphy in Cuckoo's Nest, George Berger in Hair (1979), Coalhouse Walker, Jr. in Ragtime (1980), and Antonio Salieri and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Amadeus all fail to act responsibly when given the chance. Each has the opportunity to accomplish more than he actually does if he can learn to work within his limitations rather than continually oppose them. 3 The possibility for freedom within a given set of restrictions is the major theme in Milos Forman's films and represents the optimism of his personal vision. Obtaining that freedom depends upon the person. Individual responsibility is as much a part of Forman's message as the need for institutional humanitarianism. Of Forman's American film heroes, Larry Tyne is the only one to survive because he alone comes to recognize his limits. Forman repeats these themes in each one of his films, yet his work is also constantly changing to reflect both his own concerns and contemporary social themes. His Czech films show an increasingly negative attitude about the inflexibility of the society, a premonition that was fulfilled by the Russian invasion of August, 1968. 4 The American films also all relate directly to their point in time. Taking Off demonstrates the confusion of a middle-age, middle-class parent in a youth-oriented culture. Cuckoo's Nest comments on the nature of power, an appropriate topic for the post-Watergate era. Hair relates to America's need to heal the wounds left from the Viet- nam war. Ragtime presents a powerful statement about individual responsibility, the relationship of technology to power, the role of terrorism in twentieth-century life, and the struggles of minorities to share the resources of wealth and power. Amadeus focuses on the role of the artist in society and the audience's need to recognize the difference between substance and form. Besides these features, Forman also directed a short piece titled The Decathalon for the 1972 film about the summer Olympics, Visions of Eight. For this international event, Forman appropriately selected a universal theme. His film demonstrates the comedy and tragedy of man's struggle to achieve while some dedicate themselves to regulating actions and others merely watch. 4 This view of society is actually present in each of Forman 1 S films. Milos Forman 1 s consistent vision and the steady evolution of his themes and techniques have made him one of the most important directors of the present era. An examination of his life, his creative methods, and most importantly, his films reveals the origin and the basis for both the steady evolution and the continual relevance of his work.

Contrary to the can be argued to have developed their own characteristic group style, were Italian members of the French “nouvelle vague,” they did not wrap themselves up in Neorealism and cinéma vérité.

  • 12 Big Names from World Cinema in Conversation with Marrakech Audiences
    The 18th edition of the Marrakech International Film Festival runs from 29 November to 7 December 2019 12 BIG NAMES FROM WORLD CINEMA IN CONVERSATION WITH MARRAKECH AUDIENCES Rabat, 14 November 2019. The “Conversation with” section is one of the highlights of the Marrakech International Film Festival and returns during the 18th edition for some fascinating exchanges with some of those who create the magic of cinema around the world. As its name suggests, “Conversation with” is a forum for free-flowing discussion with some of the great names in international filmmaking. These sessions are free and open to all: industry professionals, journalists, and the general public. During last year’s festival, the launch of this new section was a huge hit with Moroccan and internatiojnal film lovers. More than 3,000 people attended seven conversations with some legendary names of the big screen, offering some intense moments with artists, who generously shared their vision and their cinematic techniques and delivered some dazzling demonstrations and fascinating anecdotes to an audience of cinephiles. After the success of the previous edition, the Festival is recreating the experience and expanding from seven to 11 conversations at this year’s event. Once again, some of the biggest names in international filmmaking have confirmed their participation at this major FIFM event. They include US director, actor, producer, and all-around legend Robert Redford, along with Academy Award-winning French actor Marion Cotillard. Multi-award-winning Palestinian director Elia Suleiman will also be in attendance, along with independent British producer Jeremy Thomas (The Last Emperor, Only Lovers Left Alive) and celebrated US actor Harvey Keitel, star of some of the biggest hits in cinema history including Thelma and Louise, The Piano, and Pulp Fiction.

  • From Real Time to Reel Time: the Films of John Schlesinger
    From Real Time to Reel Time: The Films of John Schlesinger A study of the change from objective realism to subjective reality in British cinema in the 1960s By Desmond Michael Fleming Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2011 School of Culture and Communication Faculty of Arts The University of Melbourne Produced on Archival Quality Paper Declaration This is to certify that: (i) the thesis comprises only my original work towards the PhD, (ii) due acknowledgement has been made in the text to all other material used, (iii) the thesis is fewer than 100,000 words in length, exclusive of tables, maps, bibliographies and appendices. Abstract The 1960s was a period of change for the British cinema, as it was for so much else. The six feature films directed by John Schlesinger in that decade stand as an exemplar of what those changes were. They also demonstrate a fundamental change in the narrative form used by mainstream cinema. Through a close analysis of these films, A Kind of Loving, Billy Liar, Darling, Far From the Madding Crowd, Midnight Cowboy and Sunday Bloody Sunday, this thesis examines the changes as they took hold in mainstream cinema. In effect, the thesis establishes that the principal mode of narrative moved from one based on objective realism in the tradition of the documentary movement to one which took a subjective mode of narrative wherein the image on the screen, and the sounds attached, were not necessarily a record of the external world. The world of memory, the subjective world of the mind, became an integral part of the narrative.

  • 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.
