    1/2006 Before the Film and Publication Review Board In the matter between: United Independent Pictures and The Film and Publication Board In re: Appeal in respect of the film: Inside Man Award Professor Karthy Govender Introduction and description of the film 1. This is a fast-paced big budget thriller made for the commercial market by Spike Lee, and features Denzel Washington (Keith Frazier), Jodie Foster (Madeleine White), and Clive Owen (Dalton Russell). A band of bank Comment [MJM1]: Names checked on imdb.com robbers stage the perfect robbery, not for personal enrichment, but in order to redress historical wrongs and to punish a Nazi collaborator, Arthur Case, who unscrupulously benefited from dealings with the Nazis and who subsequently attained prominence in American society. In essence, the film is about retribution and being held accountable and responsible for past misdeeds. 1 2. Dalton Russell and his colleagues rob a bank in order to access a specific safety deposit box. The contents of the box link the founder and owner of the bank to the Nazi regime. The robbery is planned and executed flawlessly, with no one being killed or seriously injured, and the robbers escape with the contents of the safe deposit box. Evidence that will undeniably link the banker to the Nazis is left at the crime scene for Keith Frazier to follow up on. The film, like many others by Spike Lee, explicitly comments on social issues, and has a number of subliminal messages. There is a memorable exchange between a Sikh and the African- American, Keith Frazier.

  • First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006
    First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006 Jonathan R. Polansky Stanton Glantz, PhD CENTER FOR TOBAccO CONTROL RESEARCH AND EDUCATION UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN FRANCISCO SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94143 April 2007 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Smoking among American adults fell by half between 1950 and 2002, yet smoking on U.S. movie screens reached historic heights in 2002, topping levels observed a half century earlier.1 Tobacco’s comeback in movies has serious public health implications, because smoking on screen stimulates adolescents to start smoking,2,3 accounting for an estimated 52% of adolescent smoking initiation. Equally important, researchers have observed a dose-response relationship between teens’ exposure to on-screen smoking and smoking initiation: the greater teens’ exposure to smoking in movies, the more likely they are to start smoking. Conversely, if their exposure to smoking in movies were reduced, proportionately fewer teens would likely start smoking. To track smoking trends at the movies, previous analyses have studied the U.S. motion picture industry’s top-grossing films with the heaviest advertising support, deepest audience penetration, and highest box office earnings.4,5 This report is unique in examining the U.S. movie industry’s total output, and also in identifying smoking movies, tobacco incidents, and tobacco impressions with the companies that produced and/or distributed the films — and with their parent corporations, which claim responsibility for tobacco content choices. Examining Hollywood’s product line-up, before and after the public voted at the box office, sheds light on individual studios’ content decisions and industry-wide production patterns amenable to policy reform.

  • Documentarian
    Documentarian Growing up in Birmingham, Alabama, in the 1970s and ’80s, Michele Forman ’93 loved visual art and reading. At Harvard, she chose a double concentration in visual and environmental studies and English, and felt particularly drawn to docu- mentary filmmaking, which “revolves around talk- ing to people and being curious about their lives.” As a senior, she took a screenwriting seminar from Spike Lee, who returned a draft with a “note in the margin that this could be a movie,” and offered her a summer internship. After graduation, she worked in script development for his company in Brook- lyn, looking for new projects to executive produce. In the late ’90s she was back in Birmingham for PHOTOGRAPH KENZIE BY GREER Lee’s documentary 4 Little Girls, about the 16th Street Forman and her Baptist Church bombing in 1963. Doing research and pre-interviews students filmed at the National for the film “changed the trajectory of my career,” she says. “I knew Memorial for Peace that I wanted to come back to Alabama and use film to explore the and Justice in often painful parts of our history so that we can figure out what Montgomery, kind of values and society we want in the present.” Alabama, for a project to raise Serendipitously, an anthropology professor at University of Ala- awareness about bama at Birmingham (UAB) approached her about setting up a the history of lynch- filmmaking program there.

They seem like fun, easy projects, when in reality they are arduous ventures beset by countless pitfalls. The actor (whose creative labour produces the performances) can become obscured by the star (associated with existential qualities). It is difficult to accurately assess the industrial, cultural and aesthetic factors that shape audience perspectives and actors’ careers. There are no straightforward ways to connect star studies with accounts, for example, of African-American cinema. Even ‘star image’ is an ambiguous term. Martin Shingler notes that star studies can (and should) consider a host of issues, including ‘a performer’s star qualities and idiolect, their career trajectory … the significance of collaborators … the emergence of their type and star vehicles’ (2012: 183). Beyond this, these studies will show how ‘stars embody, incarnate or personify social groups or historical moments, [and negotiate] ideological contradictions that emerge within or between social groups’; on the flip side, they also aim to clarify ‘how certain types of audiences or members of a specific social group … have engaged with and made use of stars at particular historical moments’ (ibid.). Juggling disparate visions of stardom, these studies consider how a star functions as ‘an industrial marketing device’, a meaning- producing element within films and a working professional involved in the fields of art and performance (Gledhill 1991a: xiii).
