American Hustle is a whirling, wilful take on the con caper, with much of its ensemble drawn from Russell’s two previous films: The Fighter and Silver Linings Playbook. “Some of this actually happened” are the last words on screen as the film kicks off. It turns out to be the best line in the whole film. It is the FBI’s notorious Abscam sting of the late 1970s, with Bale’s dopey New Jersey dry-cleaner (Rosenfeld) moonlighting as an art forger, coerced by a sleazy poodle- permed federal agent (Cooper) into taking part in a plot to bring down several high-ranking politicians.

  • Cinematic Hamlet Arose from Two Convictions
    INTRODUCTION Cinematic Hamlet arose from two convictions. The first was a belief, confirmed by the responses of hundreds of university students with whom I have studied the films, that theHamlet s of Lau- rence Olivier, Franco Zeffirelli, Kenneth Branagh, and Michael Almereyda are remarkably success- ful films.1 Numerous filmHamlet s have been made using Shakespeare’s language, but only the four included in this book represent for me out- standing successes. One might admire the fine acting of Nicol Williamson in Tony Richard- son’s 1969 production, or the creative use of ex- treme close-ups of Ian McKellen in Peter Wood’s Hallmark Hall of Fame television production of 1 Introduction 1971, but only four English-language films have thoroughly transformed Shakespeare’s theatrical text into truly effective moving pictures. All four succeed as popularizing treatments accessible to what Olivier’s collabora- tor Alan Dent called “un-Shakespeare-minded audiences.”2 They succeed as highly intelligent and original interpretations of the play capable of delight- ing any audience. Most of all, they are innovative and eloquent translations from the Elizabethan dramatic to the modern cinematic medium. It is clear that these directors have approached adapting Hamlet much as actors have long approached playing the title role, as the ultimate challenge that allows, as Almereyda observes, one’s “reflexes as a film-maker” to be “tested, battered and bettered.”3 An essential factor in the success of the films after Olivier’s is the chal- lenge of tradition. The three films that followed the groundbreaking 1948 version are what a scholar of film remakes labels “true remakes”: works that pay respectful tribute to their predecessors while laboring to surpass them.4 As each has acknowledged explicitly and as my analyses demonstrate, the three later filmmakers self-consciously defined their places in a vigorously evolving tradition of Hamlet films.

  • THE “TENET” THEORY Written by Esmarelda Villalobos
    THE “TENET” THEORY Written by Esmarelda VillaLobos WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. “Tenet” begins with an attack on the arts. It is the first event in the film, right out of the gate, that sets the tone for the rest of the movie. In fact, in this film there are multiple attacks on art, but in the first few minutes of this topsy-turvy ride, we as the audience witness some kind of terrorist attack that occurs during the preparations for an orchestral performance somewhere in Russia, which, given the number of public shootings and horrific terrorist attacks that have plagued the world throughout the last decade, is not that far of a stretch from the truth. The first line of the film is “Time to wake up the Americans” to which we are now introduced to John David Washington’s character as The Protagonist. Through a series of what seems to be party-switching and criss-crossery (if that’s even a word), John David Washington is eventually caught. While under capture and interrogation, The Protagonist decides to sacrifice his own life for the good of the cause and swallow a cyanide pill given to him by the CIA. Cut to black. When we as the audience come back, John David Washington is in a hospital bed on a very large ship, somewhere beyond the sea. Now, on first viewing if you are to watch this film, you believe everything that is said – the cyanide pill is a fake, his taking it was a test to see if he would sacrifice himself in order to avoid torture and potentially give up secrets – which he did.

  • A Pinewood Dialogue with Kenneth Branagh and Michael Caine
    TRANSCRIPT A PINEWOOD DIALOGUE WITH KENNETH BRANAGH AND MICHAEL CAINE The prolific and legendary actor Michael Caine starred in both the 2007 film version of Sleuth (opposite Jude Law) and the 1972 version (opposite Laurence Olivier). In the new version, an actors’ tour de force directed by Kenneth Branagh and adapted by playwright Harold Pinter, Caine took the role originally played by Olivier. A riveting tale of deception and deadly games, this thriller about an aging crime novelist and a young actor in love with the same woman is essentially about the mysteries of acting and writing. In this discussion, Branagh and Caine discussed their collaboration after a special preview screening. A Pinewood Dialogue following a screening BRANAGH: Rubbish, of course.

  • Murder on the Orient Express: a Return Ticket Wieland Schwanebeck
    This is an accepted manuscript version of an article published in Adaptation 11.1 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1093/adaptation/apx025 Film Review: Murder on the Orient Express: A Return Ticket Wieland Schwanebeck Murder on the Orient Express. Dir. Kenneth Branagh. Perf. Kenneth Branagh, Michelle Pfeiffer, Judi Dench, Johnny Depp. Fox, 2017. In the first scene of Kenneth Branagh’s big-screen adaptation of Murder on the Orient Express (1934)—one of Agatha Christie’s three most popular novels, according to a 2015 poll (Flood)—famous Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot plagues the staff members of a Jerusalem hotel with his unusual request for two eggs of identical size. He goes so far as to apply a ruler to his breakfast, only to conclude that it does not meet his requirements. The scene serves as a neat summary of the character that will likely sit well with hardcore Christie admirers—the author famously had Captain Hastings characterize Poirot as a man so meticulous that ‘a speck of dust would have caused him more pain than a bullet wound’ (1920/2007: 14)—and the shot of Branagh (the film’s star as well as its director) cowering behind his breakfast table and scrutinizing the eggs sets up Murder on the Orient Express as an adaptation that literally goes ab ovo. It invokes the initial description of the character in Christie’s debut novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles (‘His head was exactly the shape of an egg’, 1920/2007: 14), and at the same time it is indicative of how the film reboots Christie for the twenty-first century, playing up Poirot’s tics while also humanizing him, an adaptive policy that has worked wonders for Sherlock Holmes.

  • MS41 Sir Kenneth Branagh
    MS41 Branagh Collection About the collection: Background: The Sir Kenneth Branagh Archive originated in a substantial bequest to Queen's University from Sir Kenneth Branagh in 2000. The original bequests have been supplemented by donations from other sources, including commercial bodies (such as Naxos), charitable organisations (such as the Ulster Association of Youth Drama) and individuals (such as Mark Thornton Burnett, Sarah Hatchuel and Jude Tessel). Overview: The Archive consists of material relating to the professional life and work of Sir Kenneth Branagh. It is largely made up of paper documents (many are photocopies), but also holds recordings and merchandise related to individual productions. Original items (i.e. not photocopies) are marked as such in the listing. The Branagh Archive is an open collection, so periodically items will be added – from 2006 onwards the date items were added is noted. Arrangement: The material is arranged in 7 main headings: Theatre, Television, Film, Radio/Audio, General, Recordings and Oversized Material. Where material relating to a production allows, it is arranged by the type of material: Production Material, Publicity Material, Press/Reviews/Criticism, Publications and Merchandise. The General heading lists material which does not relate to any specific production (i.e. profiles and general biographical material). It also includes material relating to organisations with which Sir Kenneth Branagh is associated (Shakespeare Birthplace Trust and the Ulster Youth Theatre). The Recordings heading lists official releases of films, television work and radio, but also unofficial copies. In addition, it also contains recordings of television and radio interviews with Sir Kenneth Branagh. Finally, the Oversized Material heading lists materials which for reason of storage are held together.

  • To Be Or Not to Be (Dangerous): Mental Instability in Branaghâ•Žs and Almereydaâ•Žs Film Adaptations of *Hamlet*
    Coastlines To Be or Not to Be (Dangerous): Mental Instability in Branagh’s and Almereyda’s Film Adaptations of Hamlet by Cory Joiner Just as Hamlet is one of Shakespeare’s most popular plays, so, too might prince Hamlet be one of his most controversial characters. Many of the questions central to Shakespeare’s original play revolve around the sanity of the play’s eponymous character, and the danger which he may or may not pose to his fellow constituents of the court of Denmark. Much of Hamlet’s character is, however, left open to interpretation, as Shakespeare’s play can be read in a myriad of different ways. So, too, can Hamlet be adapted to film variously, with just as many different versions on the possibly-insane Danish prince. Filmic adaptations of the play may choose to portray Hamlet in a traditional manner by closely following the original text, or may choose to firmly cement his character as being either quite sane or entirely deranged. These filmic visions of Prince Hamlet are, as representations of the director’s vision for the film, a sort of interpretive depiction of Shakespeare’s play (or, in some cases, interpretive depictions of a staging of the play). Two such adaptations of Shakespeare’s Hamlet – one directed by Kenneth Branagh (1996), and the other directed by Michael Almereyda (2000) – present entirely different interpretive visions of the Shakespeare’s play, especially in regards to the depiction of Hamlet himself. Almereyda’s film presents a genuinely dangerous and highly unstable Hamlet, while Branagh’s film, in more closely following the intricacies of the original text, chooses to focus instead on Hamlet’s performance of insanity while still presenting the Prince as conflicted and at least somewhat disturbed.

  • PDF EPUB} the Witch at No
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Witch At No. 13 by Gyles Brandreth John Gielgud: An Actor's Life: Centenary Edition. John Gielgud was born in April 1904. When he died in May 2000, he was honoured as 'the giant of twentieth-century theatre.' In the centenary edition of this acclaimed biography, Gyles Brandreth draws from over thirty years of conversations with Gielgud to tell the extraordinary story of a unique actor, film star, director and raconteur. In 1921 Gielgud made his first appearance at the Old Vic in London and through the next eight decades he dominated his profession - initially as a classical actor, later in plays by Harold Pinter and Alan Bennett. In his twenties he had appeared in silent movies: more than half a century later, he emerged as a Hollywood star, winning his first Oscar at the age of seventy-eight. With wonderful anecdotes, and contributions from Kenneth Branagh, Alec Guinness, Paul Scofield, Donald Sinden and Peter Hall, John Gielgud: An Actor's Life is a compelling, humorous and moving account of a remarkable man. Praise : 'Gyles Brandreth's memoir of Gielgud is vastly entertaining. a fascinating account of the actor's life' - Charles Osborne, Sunday Telegraph. 'A sense of delight permeates Gyles Brandreth's John Gielgud: An Actor's Life . Brandreth combines neat reportage, deft evocation and lovely tales about a man he knew and relished' - Benedict Nightingale, The Times. 'A delightful memoir which tells you all you need to know and collects all the anecdotes' - Michael Coveney, Daily Mail. 'A testimony to Gyles Brandreth's talent .
