    Jessica Lange Regis Dialogue Formatted

    Jessica Lange Regis Dialogue with Molly Haskell, 1997 Bruce Jenkins: Let me say that these dialogues have for the better part of this decade focused on that part of cinema devoted to narrative or dramatic filmmaking, and we've had evenings with actors, directors, cinematographers, and I would say really especially with those performers that we identify with the cutting edge of narrative filmmaking. In describing tonight's guest, Molly Haskell spoke of a creative artist who not only did a sizeable number of important projects but more importantly, did the projects that she herself wanted to see made. The same I think can be said about Molly Haskell. She began in the 1960s working in New York for the French Film Office at that point where the French New Wave needed a promoter and a writer and a translator. She eventually wrote the landmark book From Reverence to Rape on women in cinema from 1973 and republished in 1987, and did sizable stints as the film reviewer for Vogue magazine, The Village Voice, New York magazine, New York Observer, and more recently, for On the Issues. Her most recent book, Holding My Own in No Man's Land, contains her last two decades' worth of writing. I'm please to say it's in the Walker bookstore, as well. Our other guest tonight needs no introduction here in the Twin Cities nor in Cloquet, Minnesota, nor would I say anyplace in the world that motion pictures are watched and cherished. She's an internationally recognized star, but she's really a unique star.

    A Star Has Died: Affect and Stardom in a Domestic Melodrama

    QRF 21(2) #14679 Quarterly Review of Film and Video, 21:95–105, 2004 Copyright © Taylor & Francis Inc. ISSN: 1050-9208 print/1543-5326 online DOI: 10.1080/10509200490273071 A Star Has Died: Affect and Stardom in a Domestic Melodrama ANNE MOREY Until relatively recently, it has been fashionable to read Douglas Sirk as ridiculing popular culture through his manipulation of it. In other words, critics tell us, to be moved by a Sirk film is to have missed the critical boat—because, as Paul Willemen has noted, the director himself offers up a textual performance that is anything but sincere. Christine Gledhill and Walter Metz have attempted to rescue the duped audience from this critical opprobrium. Gledhill argues that Sirk appropriates the conventions of the woman’s film, in which female concerns should be and have been central, to reorder the narrative elements into a story of the absent patriarch. Similarly, Metz recuperates this possibly duped audience of female readers/viewers by reevaluating the (female) authors of the texts that Sirk so obsessively remakes, arguing that many of the signifiers of “auteurship” usually granted to Sirk are already on display in the original works (12). Like Gledhill and Metz, I seek to demonstrate that Sirk is more than a parodist. This article compares Sirk’s Imitation of Life (1959) to David O. Selznick and William Wellman’s A Star Is Born (1937) in order to explore a characteristically Sirkian narrative strategy: the later film does not amuse itself at its predecessor’s expense so much as it inverts the message.

    Hedy Lamarr Achievement Award for “Emerging Leaders in Entertainment Technology”

    HEDY LAMARR ACHIEVEMENT AWARD FOR “EMERGING LEADERS IN ENTERTAINMENT TECHNOLOGY” PRESENTED BY: DEG: THE DIGITAL ENTERTAINMENT GROUP THE HEDY LAMARR ACADEMIC AWARD SCHOLARSHIP OVERVIEW DEG: The Digital Entertainment Group is pleased to announce the annual "Hedy Lamarr Achievement Award for Emerging Leaders in Entertainment Technology," which recognizes female college students in their junior year whose studies in the fields of entertainment and technology have shown exceptional promise. The $10,000 Award will be presented in November 2018, to coincide with the 104th anniversary of Hedy Lamarr's birth. Austrian-American actress Hedy Lamarr was a Hollywood legend who is best known for her roles in a number of film classics including, Samson and Delilah, The Strange Woman, and Tortilla Flat. She was also a lifelong inventor whose innovative work included pioneering "frequency hopping" which became the foundation for spread spectrum technology. Conceived by Lamarr and composer George Antheil for radio guidance systems and patented in 1942, this highly secure technology resists interference and dropout, and is utilized today for a variety of cellular, WiFi and Bluetooth applications. To honor Ms. Lamarr, the scholarship seeks to encourage and enable highly motivated students to pursue opportunities available to them in entertainment technology, be those pursuits academic or professional. The award winner will receive $10,000 as they enter their senior year of undergraduate study. While there are no specific restrictions on the use of this monetary award, we hope and expect that the funds will be used to further the winner’s study or efforts in their recognized area of excellence. In 2017, the DEG awarded a total of $35,000 to three young women: One a Performing Arts Technology major at the University of Michigan, one a in Media Arts and Practice major at the University of Southern California, and one a in Studio Art major with a minor in Arts and Technology at Smith College.

[1914- 2000] Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler, conocida como Hedy Lamarr ( Viena, Austria 9 de noviembre de 1914 - Casselberry , Florida , E.E.U.U. 19 de enero de 2000), fue una actriz de cine e inventora Austriaca . El Día del Inventor en Austria se celebra el 9 de noviembre en su honor. Fue inventora de la primera versi ó n del “Espectro Ensanchado” que permitiría las “Comunicaciones Inalámbricas” de larga distancia. Después de una breve carrera cinematográfica en la República de Checoslovaquia, huyó y se trasladó en secreto a Paris en Francia, y luego se trasladó a Londres, en el País del Reino Unido. Trayectoria Científica. Al comienzo de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Hedy Lamarr, y el compositor George Antheil desarrollaron la patente del “Sistema de Guía por Radio” para torpedos aliados y aplicaban el concepto de “Espectro Ensanchado” y la tecnología de “Salto de Frecuencia” para vencer la amenaza de interferencias por parte de las “Potencias del Eje” Aunque la “Armada de los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica” no adoptó la tecnología hasta la década de 1960, los principios de su “Trabajo de Investigación” se incorporan a la tecnología “Bluetooth” y son similares a los métodos aplicados en las versiones heredadas de “Wi-Fi”. El presente “Trabajo de Investigación” llevó a su incorporación al “National Inventors Hall of Fame” en 2014.

But it's what she invented in her spare time - to help end that war - that has history turning a kinder eye, linking her to a bombshell of a whole different sort. Lee Cowan reports: She possessed the kind of beauty that was haunting - an almost smoldering sensuality, with an exotic accent to match. She was once dubbed "the most beautiful woman in the world." Even her name - Hedy Lamarr - sounded dark and mysterious. But although she shared the screen with Hollywood legends like Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy and Jimmy Stewart, people rarely remember Hedy's talent. Most remember only her face - a regret she carried with her to her grave. "The boys abroad, during the Second World War, voted her the most desirable, beautiful actress or pinup that they could possibly see," said writer Richard Rhodes. "So she had a great deal of fame and fortune, but not that inner satisfaction that she wanted in life." Rhodes is an author best known for his Pulitzer Prize-winning work on the making of the atomic bomb - but his most recent book about Hedy Lamarr is just as explosive.
