"Great Performances" Monsignor Quixote (TV Episode ) - IMDb As IMDb celebrates its 30th birthday, we have six shows to get you ready for those pivotal years of your life Get some streaming picks. Title: Monsignor Quixote 13 Feb In this modern adaptation of the Don Quixote theme based on a novel by Graham Greene, Quixote is an old Spanish village priest who travels through Spain with his friend, Sancho, the village's mayor and his car called Rocinante. On their way he has to master the same adventures as his ancestor. The genius of Graham Greene transfers Miguel de Cervantes' Monsignor Quixote 1st edition novel to modern times, introducing Alec Guinness as a village priest, who has the bad luck to encounter a monsignore Ian Richardson who is so delighted with him, that he persuades the bishop to create Alec a monsignore. He should never have done that. As a monsignore Alec feels completely out of place and goes for a holiday together with Leo McKern, who is an old communist and former mayor of the village, but who actually studied theology in his youth but turned marxist instead. The two are actually a little like Don Camillo and Peppone in Guareschi's stories filmed with Fernandel in the 50s, and doubtlessly Graham Greene has been inspired by that couple. On the road in good company with Leo and all his wine bottles, the couple encounter some adventures, which prompt the bishop to bring Alec back home by force and put him to bed, with fatal consequences, just like in the Cervantes novel. Here also, like in the novel, the greatest asset is the conversations and discussions between the two vagabonds. Don Quixote's delusions are here transformed into Alec's catholic faith and belief in the holy Monsignor Quixote 1st edition, which Leo mocks, persisting that Marx is more real. Perhaps the funniest scene is when Alec practically defines the holy trinity by three bottles of wine, all three containing the same wine, although three different bottles. Like in the novel, the adventures of the errant priest ends up in a melancholy way, and as always, Graham Greene's catholicism gets the better of him. But it's a wonderful film, the dialog is brilliant all the way, there are even more ingeniuities than usually in Graham Greene's stories, and the Don Quixote paraphrase is a success all the way, even unto the unavoidable sadness. Rosalie Crutchley also makes a great performance as his house- keeper, but there is no Dulcinea here, only Rosinante. Looking for some great streaming picks?

  • Norman Macleod
    Norman Macleod "This strange, rather sad story": The Reflexive Design of Graham Greene's The Third Man. The circumstances surrounding the genesis and composition of Gra­ ham Greene's The Third Man ( 1950) have recently been recalled by Judy Adamson and Philip Stratford, in an essay1 largely devoted to characterizing some quite unwarranted editorial emendations which differentiate the earliest American editions from British (and other textually sound) versions of The Third Man. It turns out that these are changes which had the effect of giving the American reader a text which (for whatever reasons, possibly political) presented the Ameri­ can and Russian occupation forces in Vienna, and the central charac­ ter of Harry Lime, and his dishonourable deeds and connections, in a blander, softer light than Greene could ever have intended; indeed, according to Adamson and Stratford, Greene did not "know of the extensive changes made to his story in the American book and now claims to be 'horrified' by them"2 • Such obscurely purposeful editorial meddlings are perhaps the kind of thing that the textual and creative history of The Third Man could have led us to expect: they can be placed alongside other more official changes (usually introduced with Greene's approval and frequently of his own doing) which befell the original tale in its transposition from idea-resuscitated-from-old­ notebook to story to treatment to script to finished film. Adamson and Stratford show that these approved and 'official' changes involved revisions both of dramatis personae and of plot, and that they were often introduced for good artistic or practical reasons.

  • Wireless Women: the “Mass” Retreat of Brighton Rock Jeffrey Sconce Northwestern University
    47 Wireless Women: The “Mass” Retreat of Brighton Rock Jeffrey Sconce Northwestern University All popular fi ction must feature a romantic couple, and so it is in the open- ing pages of Brighton Rock (1938) that Graham Greene introduces Pinkie and Rose, the teenagers whose abrasive courtship and perverse marriage will both enact and travesty this convention as the novel unfolds. When Pinkie fi rst meets Rose, she is working at Snow’s as a waitress. Entering the establishment, Pinkie encounters a wireless set “droning a programme of weary music broadcast by a cinema organist—a great vox humana trembl[ing] across the crumby stained desert of used cloths: the world’s wet mouth lamenting over life” (24). This reference to the weary lamentations of wireless remains an isolated detail until moments before Pinkie takes his fatal plunge over the cliff in the novel’s closing pages. Having taken Rose up the coast from Brighton with plans to facilitate her suicide, the couple sits for a few awkward moments in an empty hotel lounge. As Rose works on her half of the couple’s double-suicide note, to be left behind for the benefi t of “Daily Express readers, to what one called the world” (260), wireless makes a brief but meaningful re-appearance as that world speaks back. “The wireless was hidden behind a potted plant; a violin came wailing out, the notes shaken by atmospherics,” writes Greene (250). Later, the violin fades away and “a time signal pinged through the rain. A voice behind the plant gave them the weather report—storms coming up from the Continent, a depression in the Atlantic, tomorrow’s forecast” (251).

  • The Ambivalent Catholic Modernity of Graham Greene’S
    THE AMBIVALENT CATHOLIC MODERNITY OF GRAHAM GREENE’S BRIGHTON ROCK AND THE POWER AND THE GLORY A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In English By Karl O’Hanlon, B.A. Washington D.C. 28 th April, 2010 THE AMBIVALENT CATHOLIC MODERNITY OF GRAHAM GREENE’S BRIGHTON ROCK AND THE POWER AND THE GLORY Karl O’Hanlon, B.A. Thesis Advisor: John Pfordresher, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This thesis argues that the “religious sense” which emerged from Graham Greene’s Catholicism provides the basis for the critique of the ethics of modernity in his novels Brighton Rock (1938) and The Power and the Glory (1940). In his depiction of the self-righteous Ida Arnold in Brighton Rock , Greene elicits some problems inherent in modern ethical theory, comparing secular “right and wrong” unfavourably with a religious sense of “good and evil.” I suggest that the antimodern aspects of Pinkie in Brighton Rock are ultimately renounced by Greene as potentially dangerous, and in The Power and the Glory his critique of modernity evolves to a more ambivalent dialectic, in which facets of modernity are affirmed as well as rejected. I argue that this evolution in stance constitutes Greene’s search for a new philosophical and literary idiom – a “Catholic modernity.” ii With sincere thanks to John Pfordresher, for the great conversations about Greene, encouragement, careful reading, and patience in waiting for new chapter drafts, without which this thesis would have been much the poorer.

WiaCe- Author Approved, September 1984 ABSTRACT Graham Greene's works in the 1930s reveal his obsession with the nature and source of evil in the world. The world for Greene is a sad and frightening place, where betrayal, injustice, and cruelty are the norm. His books of the 1930s, culminating in Brighton Rock (1938), are all, on some level, attempts to explain why this is so.
