  • Child-Theft Across Visual Media
    The Child-theft Motif in the Silent Film Era and Afterwards 7 The Child-theft Motif in the Silent Film Era and Afterwards — ※ — During the silent film era (1894–1927), the story of children who are stolen by ‘gypsies’ and then rescued/restored to their families resurfaces as one of the popular stock plots.

  • Playing the Big Easy: a History of New Orleans in Film and Television
    PLAYING THE BIG EASY: A HISTORY OF NEW ORLEANS IN FILM AND TELEVISION Robert Gordon Joseph A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2018 Committee: Cynthia Baron, Advisor Marlise Lonn Graduate Faculty Representative Clayton Rosati Andrew Schocket © 2018 Robert Joseph All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Cynthia Baron, Advisor Existing cultural studies scholarship on New Orleans explores the city’s exceptional popular identity, often focusing on the origins of that exceptionality in literature and the city’s twentieth century tourism campaigns. This perceived exceptionality, though originating from literary sources, was perpetuated and popularized in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries by film and television representations. As Hollywood’s production standards evolved throughout the twentieth century, New Orleans’ representation evolved with it. In each filmmaking era, representations of New Orleans reflected not only the production realities of that era, but also the political and cultural debates surrounding the city. In the past two decades, as the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the passage of film tax credits by the Louisiana Legislature increased New Orleans’ profile, these debates have been more present and driven by New Orleans’ filmed representations. Using the theoretical framework of Guy Debord’s spectacle and the methodology of New Film History and close “to the background” textual analysis, this study undertakes an historical overview of New Orleans’ representation in film and television. This history starts in the era of Classical Hollywood (1928-1947) and continues through Transitional Hollywood (1948-1966), New Hollywood (1967-1975), and the current Age of the Blockbuster (1975-).

  • SFSFF 2018 Program Book
    elcome to the San Francisco Silent Film Festival for five days and nights of live cinema! This is SFSFFʼs twenty-third year of sharing revered silent-era Wmasterpieces and newly revived discoveries as they were meant to be experienced—with live musical accompaniment. We’ve even added a day, so there’s more to enjoy of the silent-era’s treasures, including features from nine countries and inventive experiments from cinema’s early days and the height of the avant-garde. A nonprofit organization, SFSFF is committed to educating the public about silent-era cinema as a valuable historical and cultural record as well as an art form with enduring relevance. In a remarkably short time after the birth of moving pictures, filmmakers developed all the techniques that make cinema the powerful medium it is today— everything except for the ability to marry sound to the film print. Yet these films can be breathtakingly modern. They have influenced every subsequent generation of filmmakers and they continue to astonish and delight audiences a century after they were made. SFSFF also carries on silent cinemaʼs live music tradition, screening these films with accompaniment by the worldʼs foremost practitioners of putting live sound to the picture. Showcasing silent-era titles, often in restored or preserved prints, SFSFF has long supported film preservation through the Silent Film Festival Preservation Fund. In addition, over time, we have expanded our participation in major film restoration projects, premiering four features and some newly discovered documentary footage at this event alone. This year coincides with a milestone birthday of film scholar extraordinaire Kevin Brownlow, whom we celebrate with an onstage appearance on June 2.

Agradecimientos Agradezco a mi directora de tesis, la profesora Gisela Cramer, por sus consejos y por su continua disponibilidad a escucharme y leerme. Ella me acompañó en el proceso de seguir mis intereses investigativos más allá de la disciplina histórica, siempre con mucha calidez y empatía. Los encuentros del grupo “Relaciones Internacionales e Historia Transnacional”, los cuales ella ha hecho posibles, me permitieron desarrollar mi investigación en un espacio abierto a la integración y discusión entre personas de pregrado, maestría y doctorado. Este grupo fue fundamental para desarrollar mis reflexiones. Allí mis compañeras y compañeros —sin olvidar a Jorge Enrique Casilimas Quintero (Q.E.P.D.)— escucharon mis avances y dudas en diferentes ocasiones, y me dieron generosas recomendaciones. De la Escuela de Estudios de Género agradezco a la profesora Tania Pérez-Bustos por haberme leído y comentado en diferentes etapas de mi proceso de investigación y escritura. Le agradezco por haberme mostrado el cuidado, no solo desde la teoría, sino permitiéndome sentirlo durante nuestras conversaciones.
