DAVIS The Latino Film Experience in History: A Dialogue The complexity of the Latino experience has yet to be adequately explored in film. As in Latino literary texts, most themes and characters in Latino films have emerged from the sensibilities of a community’s insertion into the North American reality. From these national experiences, filmmakers have been able to explore issues relevant to the broadly constructed ‘Latino’ community.

In contrast, domestic popular music, including minstrel music, was first tested in smaller towns, then went to larger urban areas, and entered New York only after success elsewhere. Songwriting and music publishing were similarly dispersed. New York did not become the nerve center for indigenous popular music until later in the nineteenth century, when the pre- viously scattered conglomeration of songwriters and publishers began to converge on the Broadway and 28th Street section of the city, in an area that came to be called Tin Pan Alley after the tinny output of its upright pianos.

The United States of America’s attitude towards Latin America has been changed several times throughout the 20th century, depending on the current international situation. The aim of my article is to present the cinematographic aspects of this policy in the 1930s and the first half of the 1940s, within the framework of the Good Neighbor Policy, formulated by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Marilyn appeared introspective in this candid shot in her New York hotel room. Her fame was unprecedented and she became an instantly recognizable symbol of beauty. Woodstock, NY: Overlook Press, She was determined to never go through that again. These afflictions caused her removal from a subsequent film, Something's Got to Give , and she died two months later of a drug overdose. But by then she was disillusioned with her success and bored with her "dumb blond" image. She prolly killed herself because she was probably stress overwhelmed or prolly felt like she wasting loved. That fact that she committed suicide is beyond comprehension. She proved her skill by winning various honors and attracting large audiences to her films. The affair served only to pinpoint the troubles in her marriage to Miller, with whom she had little more than a professional relationship by For one thing, it meant I could live in a more interesting world than the one around me.

  • American Heritage Center
    UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY RESOURCES Child actress Mary Jane Irving with Bessie Barriscale and Ben Alexander in the 1918 silent film Heart of Rachel. Mary Jane Irving papers, American Heritage Center. Compiled by D. Claudia Thompson and Shaun A. Hayes 2009 PREFACE When the University of Wyoming began collecting the papers of national entertainment figures in the 1970s, it was one of only a handful of repositories actively engaged in the field. Business and industry, science, family history, even print literature were all recognized as legitimate fields of study while prejudice remained against mere entertainment as a source of scholarship. There are two arguments to be made against this narrow vision. In the first place, entertainment is very much an industry. It employs thousands. It requires vast capital expenditure, and it lives or dies on profit. In the second place, popular culture is more universal than any other field. Each individual’s experience is unique, but one common thread running throughout humanity is the desire to be taken out of ourselves, to share with our neighbors some story of humor or adventure. This is the basis for entertainment. The Entertainment Industry collections at the American Heritage Center focus on the twentieth century. During the twentieth century, entertainment in the United States changed radically due to advances in communications technology. The development of radio made it possible for the first time for people on both coasts to listen to a performance simultaneously. The delivery of entertainment thus became immensely cheaper and, at the same time, the fame of individual performers grew.
