    MA MAJOR RESEARCH PAPER James Stewart: The Trouble with Urban Modernity in Verligo and Liberly Valance ALEX MORRIS Supervisor: Edward Siopek The Major Research Paper is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Joint Graduate Program in Communication & Culture Ryerson University - York University Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sept. 21, 2009 Table of Contents Introduction: Post-War Stewart and the Dark Turn in Hollywood ...................................... 2 Chapter 1: Vertigo: An Architecture for Double Vision ..................................................... 13 Chapter 2: Liberty Valance: Masculine Anxiety in the Cinematic "Wild West" ................ 24 Works Cited and Consulted .............................................................................44 1 Introduction Legendary 20th Century Hollywood film star and American everyman James Maitland Stewart saw merit and enduring intrinsic reward more in his extensive career as a decorated military serviceman, which began a year before Pearl Harbor, well before his nation joined the fighting in the European theatre of the Second World War, and ended long after his controversial peace-time promotion to Brigadier General decades later­ than in his lifelong career as a cherished and profoundly successful screen actor. For him, as for his father and grandfather before him, who, between the two of them, saw action in three major American wars, serving the nation militarily was as good as it got. When asked by an interviewer some 50 years after the end of his wartime military service about his WWII memories, writes biographer Jonathan Coe in his book, Jimmy Stewart: A Wonderful Life, Stewart remarks that his military experience was "something that I think about almost everyday: one of the greatest experiences of my life." "Greater than being in the movies?" countered the reporter.
  • A Selected Bibliography of Literary Journalism

    A Selected Bibliography of Literary Journalism

    From Norman Sims, True Stories: A Century of Literary Journalism. (Evanston: Northwestern University Press, November 2007). A Selected Bibliography of Literary Journalism Compiled by Norman Sims This bibliography is more suggestive than complete, and was compiled in 2008. It contains a range of books, some that are considered classic works and others that are much less known. These works are not infallible; some may contain fictionalized stories or elements. Mark Twain encouraged readers to exercise judgment, and that remains true today. With a few exceptions, autobiographies, memoirs, and newspaper stories have been excluded, as have criticism and books about literary journalism. Most of the works were written during the twentieth century, although a few nineteenth century classics are included. Often only a few works by an author are mentioned. For example, John McPhee has more than thirty books of literary journalism in print, but only a couple are listed here. This list is intended as a starting point for further reading and research. Works are arranged in three categories according to the date when they were written; sometimes the same author appears in two sections. Before 1915 Ade, George. Chicago Stories. Edited by Franklin J. Meine; illustrated by John T. McCutcheon and others. Chicago: Henry Regnery, 1963. Selected journalism from early in the century. Baker, Ray Stannard. Following the Color Line.

    PERFORMING ARTS • FILM HISTORICAL DICTIONARY OF Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts, No. 26 VARNER When early filmgoers watched The Great Train Robbery in 1903, many shrieked in terror at the very last clip, when one of the outlaws turned toward the camera and seemingly fired a gun directly at the audience. The puff of WESTERNS smoke was sudden and hand-colored, and it looked real. Today we can look back at that primitive movie and see all the elements of what would evolve HISTORICAL into the Western genre. Perhaps the Western’s early origins—The Great Train DICTIONARY OF Robbery was the first narrative, commercial movie—or its formulaic yet enter- WESTERNS in Cinema taining structure has made the genre so popular. And with the recent success of films like 3:10 to Yuma and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, the Western appears to be in no danger of disappearing. The story of the Western is told in this Historical Dictionary of Westerns in Cinema through a chronology, a bibliography, an introductory essay, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on cinematographers; com- posers; producers; films like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Dances with Wolves, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, High Noon, The Magnificent Seven, The Searchers, Tombstone, and Unforgiven; actors such as Gene Autry, in Cinema Cinema Kirk Douglas, Clint Eastwood, Henry Fonda, Jimmy Stewart, and John Wayne; and directors like John Ford and Sergio Leone.

    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release May 1994 MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES AND CLASSICS June 24 - September 30, 1994 A retrospective celebrating the seventieth anniversary of Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer, the legendary Hollywood studio that defined screen glamour and elegance for the world, opens at The Museum of Modern Art on June 24, 1994. MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES AND CLASSICS comprises 112 feature films produced by MGM from the 1920s to the present, including musicals, thrillers, comedies, and melodramas. On view through September 30, the exhibition highlights a number of classics, as well as lesser-known films by directors who deserve wider recognition. MGM's films are distinguished by a high artistic level, with a consistent polish and technical virtuosity unseen anywhere, and by a roster of the most famous stars in the world -- Joan Crawford, Clark Gable, Judy Garland, Greta Garbo, and Spencer Tracy. MGM also had under contract some of Hollywood's most talented directors, including Clarence Brown, George Cukor, Vincente Minnelli, and King Vidor, as well as outstanding cinematographers, production designers, costume designers, and editors. Exhibition highlights include Erich von Stroheim's Greed (1925), Victor Fleming's Gone Hith the Hind and The Wizard of Oz (both 1939), Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), and Ridley Scott's Thelma & Louise (1991). Less familiar titles are Monta Bell's Pretty Ladies and Lights of Old Broadway (both 1925), Rex Ingram's The Garden of Allah (1927) and The Prisoner - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019-5498 Tel: 212-708-9400 Cable: MODERNART Telex: 62370 MODART 2 of Zenda (1929), Fred Zinnemann's Eyes in the Night (1942) and Act of Violence (1949), and Anthony Mann's Border Incident (1949) and The Naked Spur (1953).

    Grisham's 'Time to Kill' Coming to Broadway - NYTimes.com JUNE 25, 2013, 3:46 PM Grisham’s ‘Time to Kill’ Coming to Broadway By PATRICK HEALY A stage adaptation of “A Time to Kill,” John Grisham’s legal thriller about a young white lawyer defending a black man for a revenge murder in Mississippi, will open on Broadway in the fall, the producers said on Tuesday. The play is the first adaptation of a novel by the best-selling Mr. Grisham for the theater; the writer is Rupert Holmes, a Tony Award winner for best book and best score for “The Mystery of Edwin Drood.” The novel was made into a 1996 film starring Matthew McConaughey and Samuel L. Jackson. The play’s producers, Daryl Roth and Eva Price, have indicated in investment documents that the show will cost $3.6 million on Broadway. Casting will be announced soon; in the premiere of the play in 2011 at Arena Stage in Washington, Sebastian Arcelus (“Elf”) played the lawyer. That production received mixed reviews. The play is to begin preview performances on Sept. 28 at the Golden Theater and open on Oct. 20. The director will be Ethan McSweeny (the 2000 Broadway revival of “Gore Vidal’s The Best Man”), who staged the play at Arena. http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/06/25/grishams-time-to-kill-coming-to-broadway/?pagewanted=print[6/26/2013 9:51:02 AM] Escaping a Broken Marriage in a Ruined Town - The New York Times June 25, 2013 THEATER REVIEW Escaping a Broken Marriage in a Ruined Town By CATHERINE RAMPELL If you describe the plot of “Rantoul and Die” to a friend, as I did, you will probably find yourself muttering, “but it’s still really funny, I swear.” And really, I swear, this tale of a sour, violent marriage is funny — darkly, darkly funny.

    For immediate release: December 21, 2007 WEXNER CENTER GOES WEST FOR NINE-FILM SERIES IN JANUARY This January, the Wexner Center presents a five-night, nine-film series offering some of the best films from that most American of genres, the western. Though the western has been proclaimed dead or irrelevant numerous times in film history, the recent releases of 3:10 to Yuma, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, and even the Coen brothers’ western update No Country for Old Men suggest that there is still plenty of life and contemporary relevance in the genre (see the New York The Searchers, showing January 10 Image courtesy Warner Bros. Times Magazine cover story “How the Western Was Won” on November 11 for more on this topic). The Western series at the Wexner Center—which kicks off January 10—presents a rare chance to revisit (or see on the big screen for the first time) some influential western classics. It features some of the genre’s iconic stars (including John Wayne, James Stewart, Randolph Scott, and Gary Cooper) in films by some of the genre’s masters (such as John Ford, Howard Hawks, Anthony Mann, and Budd Boetticher). While this series focuses on the postwar western cycle typified by flawed heroes and muddied morals (exemplified by Ford’s landmark The Searchers), it also includes lighter approaches (The Plainsman, Trail of the Vigilantes) and the clearly revisionist Little Big Man. This series was organized by the Wexner Center’s film staff. Tickets for each night of the series are $7 general public; $5 members, students, and senior citizens; $3 children under 12.
