  • Annenberg Community Beach House Santa Monica, CA
    Annenberg Community Beach House Santa Monica, CA Precaster: Mid- State Precast, Corcoran, CA Website: www.midstateprecast.com The Annenberg Community Beach House project is the rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of the historic 5 1/2- acre Marion Davies Estate originally constructed in the 1920s. The design of the new pool house reinterprets the key historical elements of the original structure. Central to the architect’s design was the reinvention of the original columns through the use of symbolic columns along the pool house exterior. The architect’s aesthetic vision called for a highly refined concrete mixture and special Original Marion Davies Beach mansion form system to create these columns. The precaster worked closely with the architect to develop samples of the mixture, final texture, and lift/brace points. The resulting precast concrete columns, with their perfect color, shape, and harmony, are as dramatic as the columns of nearly a century ago. So what's so special about the beach house? Hollywood history. For as long as they’ve made films in Hollywood, those with power and money have flocked to Santa Monica. I n the 1920s, the beach north of the Santa Monica Pier was known as the Gold Coast because the people who built houses there were rich and celebrated, among them were four of the men who created Hollywood; Irving Thalberg and his wife, actress Norma Shearer, oil man J. Paul Getty, comedian Harold Lloyd and leading man Douglas Fairbanks. William Randolph Hearst might have been the first media mogul of the 20th Century. In his day, Hearst owned newspapers and magazines, radio stations and movie companies.

Der Film übernimmt dabei weitgehend die Position Mank der einflussreichen Filmkritikerin Pauline Kael, die in ihrem Essay «Raising Kane» die Ansicht vertrat, dass diese Ehre allein Mankiewicz gebühre und Welles’ Bei- Filmbulletin trag minimal gewesen sei. Kaels #$%# im «New Yorker» erschienener Artikel schlug hohe Wellen, nicht zuletzt, weil sie sich damit gegen die aus Frankreich impor- tierte Vorstellung richtete, dass der Regisseur die zen- trale kreative Instanz bei der Produktion eines Films sei. Dass Kael ausgerechnet Welles, der gerade wegen Citizen Kane den Status eines Auteur-Schutzheiligen innehatte, angriff, grenzte an ein Sakrileg. Entsprechend heftig fielen die Reaktionen aus. Wer schrieb den scheinbar besten Film der Kael kam zusätzlich unter Beschuss, weil sie sich weit- Geschichte?
