  • Opening Pandora's Box BFI Uncovers Rare Technicolor Footage of Louise
    The American Venus (1926), Source: BFI National Archive/Paramount Pictures Opening Pandora’s Box BFI uncovers rare Technicolor footage of Louise Brooks in living colour For Immediate release: 30 April 2018, London The BFI today announces the discovery of a cache of extremely rare Technicolor film fragments from the 1920s held by the BFI National Archive, including previously unseen footage of Louise Brooks dancing in colour. The very image of the modern woman, this tantalising glimpse of Louise Brooks comes from The American Venus (1926), her first credited film role and is one of the only images we have of her in colour. The feature is believed lost with the exception of footage from the film’s trailer, held by Berkeley Art Museum and The Library of Congress. It is thought that this extremely short extract discovered by the BFI may come from a costume test. The fragment from The American Venus (1926) was found alongside material from The Far Cry (1926), The Fire Brigade (1926) and Dance Madness (1926) within a copy of Black Pirate (1926), donated to the Archive by The Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in 1959. In the same print of Black Pirate, there is also a test shot for historical drama Mona Lisa (1926) starring Hedda Hopper, the ‘Queen of the Quickies’ and legendary acerbic Hollywood gossip columnist for the LA Times, whose biting wit was recently portrayed by Judy Davis in award-winning TV series Feud. The fragment shows Hedda Hopper as Mona Lisa in repose, one assumes, about to be painted by Leonardo da Vinci.

  • World War I Veterans in Pre-Code Film
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School School of Humanities SPENT BULLETS: WORLD WAR I VETERANS IN PRE-CODE FILM A Dissertation in American Studies by Tiffany I. Weaver ©2018 Tiffany I. Weaver Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2018 The dissertation of Tiffany I. Weaver was reviewed and approved* by the following: Charles Kupfer Associate Professor of American Studies and History Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Simon J. Bronner Distinguished Professor of American Studies and Folklore Anthony Buccitelli Associate Professor of American Studies and Communications Robin Redmon Wright Associate Professor of Lifelong Learning and Adult Education John Haddad Professor of American Studies and Popular Culture Chair of the Graduate Program in American Studies *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT Films depicting World War I and its aftermath began production almost as soon as the war began, although it would be roughly a decade before these films became more prevalent and popular. Many of these films were important in helping the public navigate the aftermath of the conflict and reflected the changing society of the 1920s and early 1930s. Studying these films can help provide a better understanding of the culture in the United States that emerged during the Interwar period and how society reacted to these changes. Of particular importance are the films depicting the experience of the solider upon returning home. Following World War I, veterans across the United States and Europe experienced issues with readjustment to civilian life, struggled with shell shock, and faced unemployment.

  • Technicolor Adventures in Cinemaland
    Technicolor Adventures in Cinemaland H. T. Kalmus Reprinted from Journal of the Society of Motion Picture Engineers, December, 1938, Pages 564-584, TECHNICOLOR ADVENTURES IN CINEMALAND* fl. T. KALMUS** Summary.-A n account of some of the highlights in the history of the development of the business of Technicolor Motion Picture Corporation primarily from the point of view of its contact with motion picture producers, distributors, and exhibitors; incidental to which is an account of the development and growth of the various Techni­ color processes from a semi-technical point of view but with special reference to practi­ cal application in the motion picture industry. Webster defines adventure as chance of danger or loss; the encoun­ tering of risks; a bold undertaking, a da__ring feat; a remarkable oc­ currence or experience, a stirring incident; a mercantile or speculative enterprise of hazard; a venture. The excursions of Technicolor irtto the domain of the producers, distributors, and exhibitors of motion pictures have bc~n all of these. Technicolor has manufactured and shipped prints of many hun­ dreds of productions (during 1937 alone of over 350 subjects for some fifty different customers including more than twenty features) and since some phase of adventure usually develops during the photog­ raphy or printing of any production, it is clear that this account does not pretend to be complete. Nor are the events described in detail necessarily those of greatest importance. The writer having played a continuing part will no doubt unduly emphasize some which he found particularly interesting, whereas with the passage of time others only lightly touched upon or omitted may be found to be of greater significance.
