  • 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.

  • American Heritage Center
    UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY RESOURCES Child actress Mary Jane Irving with Bessie Barriscale and Ben Alexander in the 1918 silent film Heart of Rachel. Mary Jane Irving papers, American Heritage Center. Compiled by D. Claudia Thompson and Shaun A. Hayes 2009 PREFACE When the University of Wyoming began collecting the papers of national entertainment figures in the 1970s, it was one of only a handful of repositories actively engaged in the field. Business and industry, science, family history, even print literature were all recognized as legitimate fields of study while prejudice remained against mere entertainment as a source of scholarship. There are two arguments to be made against this narrow vision. In the first place, entertainment is very much an industry. It employs thousands. It requires vast capital expenditure, and it lives or dies on profit. In the second place, popular culture is more universal than any other field. Each individual’s experience is unique, but one common thread running throughout humanity is the desire to be taken out of ourselves, to share with our neighbors some story of humor or adventure. This is the basis for entertainment. The Entertainment Industry collections at the American Heritage Center focus on the twentieth century. During the twentieth century, entertainment in the United States changed radically due to advances in communications technology. The development of radio made it possible for the first time for people on both coasts to listen to a performance simultaneously. The delivery of entertainment thus became immensely cheaper and, at the same time, the fame of individual performers grew.

    December 2014 Volume 53 Issue 12 Presidents notes N1EZH Barry Kennedy Presidents Monthly Message for December 2014 from Barry – N1EZH: Please Note: There will NOT be a December MARA Monthly Meeting! Winter is almost upon us and judging from the weather, may be a long one this year! I was able to basically trade my Tipper Mount and masts that were for a 39’ Rohn 25G Tower that I may only put up about 29’ with a tilt over of some sort which I hope to be able to clean up, paint and put up in the Spring. With the additional Rotor and mast for the antennas will be about 36’ or so tall when I am done. This will make it a few feet higher than my old one from a couple of years ago before the storm took it down. If anyone else in our club has done a project this year, or may be planning one either during the Winter or next Spring, then please take some photos and submit them to Rick – [email protected] so he can put them in our MARA Newsletter. For those of you that are on Facebook, I began a Massasoit Amateur Radio Association Facebook Page and have posted several items of interest on there. I have been updating the page with Club Events, photos, etc.from time to time in the hope that it will become another avenue for us in which to spark interest in our club and keep members informed of what we are doing outside of our Club Meetings and in our Community.

  • 4. You Only Live Twice
    YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE UK/1967/117mins/adv12A Dir: Lewis Gilbert With: Sean Connery, Akiko Wakabayashi, Mie Hama Waylay any passer-by in the street and ask them to respond to the phrase ‘Bond villain’, and you’ll likely receive a mixture of replies: Oddjob’s hat; Jaws’ steel gnashers; Scaramanga’s nipple; Blofeld’s pussy. There’s every chance, though, that the first three words you’ll hear from most will be “hollowed-out volcano”. With the Carry Ons, Hammer horror, and the Beatles all hitting box-office peaks, the mid 1960s for once saw something of a boom in commercial British film fortunes. Of course there are always doom merchants hovering, and doubtless those craving ‘art’, respectability, significance from cinema were up in arms about the success of our low-class franchises. So the international attention and global influence grabbed by Cubby Broccoli’s ‘James Bond’ productions can’t have met with joy in certain quarters. Eager paying punters the world over couldn’t wait for the next instalment, and in 1966 with the World Cup safely in the bag and ‘Sunny Afternoon’ jauntily spinning on everybody’s turntable, YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE was already underway. The pressure was on. This was to be the most ambitious, vast Bond to date, with a Far Eastern location, beyond-ginormous Ken Adam sets, and a plan to go out of this world. And it was already booked into U.K. cinemas for June 13th 1967. Adding to the expanding list of problems (time-consuming aerial exploratory ‘recces’ seeking non-existent Japanese coastal castles, inability of cast members to speak English, Jan Werich being fired after five days as an ineffectual Blofeld and the major production heads avoiding death when after hastily changing flight plans, their originally scheduled plane crashed 25 minutes after take off), regular scriptwriter Richard Maibaum was unavailable for the first time.

The sequence of events of the infamous bodyline series are too well known to recount in detail, but what’s of interest is how the ethical foundations of the game cracked all too easily. Following the evangelical revival in early 19th-century Britain, the cult of athleticism took root in its elite public schools from 1850 onwards, with physical exercise turned into a moral virtue. According to historian Jeffrey Richards, the whole ethos of athleticism could be summed up in three words – ‘play the game’ – which meant abiding by the spirit of the game, as well as the laws, so as not to gain an unfair advantage over an opponent.
