Silence Restored: Three Re-Released Films by F.W. Murnau

Starring Charles Farrell and Mary Duncan, with a new musical score by Chris- topher Caliendo. Eureka!, 2011 (1930). Dual format + 28-page booklet. £14.99. The most recently reconstructed version of F. W. Murnau’s The Last Man (1924), released in English originally as The Last Laugh, commences with a cautionary epigraph: “Today you are the first [der Erste], revered by everyone, a minister of state, a millionaire, perhaps even a prince [ein Fürst]. Who knows what you’ll be tomorrow?” Ab- sent from other available variants of the film, these words provide the coordinates of a plot that steers between “first” and “last” while parsing the ambiguity of the latter (“least”? “ultimate”?), which the divergence in titles amplifies. Restored to the film’s opening frames, these lines key the narrative in terms of a lexical tension—one that later reappears in a newspaper notice, which the camera makes legible to the viewer, and which echoes the Biblical assurance that “the last shall be first.”1 This ancient promise is invoked in conjunction with the comedic reversal of fortune heralded by the English title. -

SELZNICK /x/HAT price personality? That question is everlastingly applied in the evaluation of the prime fac- tors in the making of motion pictures. It is applied to the star, the producer, the director, the writer and the other human ingredients that combine in the production of a motion picture. • And for all alike there is a common denominator—the boxoffice. • It has often been stated that each per- sonality is as good as his or her last picture. But it is unfair to make an evaluation on such a basis. The average for a season, based on intakes at the boxoffices throughout the land, is the more reliable measuring stick. • To render a service heretofore lacking, the publishers of BOXOFFICE have surveyed the field of the motion picture theatre and herein present BOXOFFICE RECORDS that tell their own important story.

Media information 22 September 2016 1920s JAZZ AGE Fashion & Photographs 23 September 2016 – 15 January 2017 The Fashion and Textile Museum presents JAZZ AGE: Fashion & Photographs, a major exhibition of 1920s garments alongside portraits by James Abbe. • 1920s JAZZ AGE: Fashion & Photographs presents a glittering display of over 150 haute couture and ready-to-wear garments from 1919 to 1929. • Photographs by James Abbe (1883–1973), film excerpts and magazines highlight the role of graphic art and photography in promoting the 20s look • A Decade of Change is documented through shifting hemlines, waistlines and accessories, from hats to hairbrushes, stockings to cigarette holders. • Four outfits from The Great Gatsby film (2013) by Catherine Martin with Miuccia Prada highlight contemporary fascination with the decade Women’s clothing in the 1920s reflected dizzying social change on an unprecedented scale. From Paris and London to New York and Hollywood, the period following the Great War offered the modern woman a completely new style of dressing. With over 150 garments and accessories from a major private collection, this stunning selection of sportswear, printed day dresses, fringed flapper dresses, beaded evening wear, velvet capes, kimonos and silk pyjamas reveals the glamour, excess, frivolity and modernity of the decade. The exhibition focuses not only on high-end couture but also on the ready-made. It offers a reassessment of the 1920s by showcasing the wide variety of clothing and accessories available to the modern woman, not just the drop-waisted flapper dress immediately associated with the era. Throughout, the exhibition highlights the decade’s changing silhouette including the straighter less exaggerated shape, promoted by haute couture designers such as Lucile and Paul Poiret since the pre-war years, the rising hemline and clothes designed to 1 allow free movement. -

NPG Glamour of the Gods Talk: Ruth Harriet Louise to Eve Arnold The
NPG Glamour of the Gods Talk: Ruth Harriet Louise to Eve Arnold The story of Hollywood is fascinating. In 1905 Sunset Boulevard was just a dirt track road. Today it is a seventeen mile main road that runs through Los Angeles. By 1910 a community of film companies were emerging and by 1914 Adolph Zukor‘s Famous Players merged with the Lasky Company and it was not long before Paramount Pictures was created and a vertically controlled film industry evolved. Right from the beginning stars were an important ingredient to promote films. One of the earliest stars is Theda Bara who appeared in Cleopatra, Carmen and Salome but most of these films have vanished. However, the popularity of the comedians and in particular Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin, Laurel and Hardy have survived. Their films are continuously screened worldwide in a variety of formats. The sex Goddesses also seem to hold up reasonably well and in particular Gloria Swanson and Pola Negri. The iconic face of Louise Brooks remains popular too. Stills were used to promote films in newspapers and magazines and used as art work for the poster design. Stills were also used to promote the film in campaign books and sales catalogues to entice exhibitors. One of the first stills men to arrive was Clarence Sinclair Bull who came to Hollywood in 1917. Another of the pioneers was Harry Waxman a successful New York photographer who set up a studio in Los Angeles and began to photograph many of the Hollywood stars including Gloria Swanson and Pola Negri. Waxman focused on the personality of the star as seen in Waxman’s 1926 portrait of Evelyn Brett. -
Valentino, Rudolph (1895-1926) by Peter J
Valentino, Rudolph (1895-1926) by Peter J. Holliday Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The most popular of silent-screen stars, the darkly handsome Valentino gazed at his heroines with a mixture of passion and melancholy that sent chills down female (and some male) spines. To American women he represented mysterious, forbidden eroticism, the fulfillment of dreams of illicit love and uninhibited passion; but most male moviegoers found his acting ludicrous, his manner foppish, and his screen character effeminate. His androgynous persona, at once assertively virile and gracefully sensitive, threatened traditional images of American masculinity in a crucial period of cultural change. Top: A Paramount Born Rodolfo Alfonzo Raffaele Pierre Philibert Guglielmi in Castellaneta, Italy in 1895, Pictures poster for The Valentino emigrated to New York in 1913. There he took a succession of jobs, including Shiek (1921). Above: Rudolph dishwasher and waiter, and was booked by the police several times on suspicion of Valentino (left) with petty theft and blackmail. Elinor Glyn. In 1917 he traveled to Hollywood where he landed bit parts in the movies, mostly as an exotic dancer or villain. He married bisexual actress Jean Acker in 1920, but the marriage was never consummated. Valentino's big break came in 1921 when Metro screenwriter June Mathis insisted that director Rex Ingram give him the lead in The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The film catapulted Valentino into stardom. He reached new heights with The Sheik (1921) for Paramount. During the film's exhibition women fainted in the aisles.
