Law School Student Scholarship. 1150. https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/1150 The introduction of social media has forever changed communication, politics, and business. Like with many new forms of technology, children are more likely than their elders to use and be affected by social media.1 The consequences of social media on children are far- reaching and federal and state governments are still grappling with how to protect children from the effects of social media.2 While states generally entrust parents with the care of their children, the introduction of social media has raised new questions about how to regulate child labor in this new landscape. Children involved in social media production are facing the types of threats that have long existed in the entertainment industry, including the risk of financial exploitation and harm to their well-being. Social media has raised new questions about balancing the parents’ right to raise their children with the government’s responsibility to act in a child’s best interest. These tensions

  • The Horror Film Series
    Ihe Museum of Modern Art No. 11 jest 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Circle 5-8900 Cable: Modernart Saturday, February 6, I965 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The Museum of Modern Art Film Library will present THE HORROR FILM, a series of 20 films, from February 7 through April, 18. Selected by Arthur L. Mayer, the series is planned as a representative sampling, not a comprehensive survey, of the horror genre. The pictures range from the early German fantasies and legends, THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI (I9I9), NOSFERATU (1922), to the recent Roger Corman-Vincent Price British series of adaptations of Edgar Allan Poe, represented here by THE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH (I96IO. Milestones of American horror films, the Universal series in the 1950s, include THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (1925), FRANKENSTEIN (1951), his BRIDE (l$55), his SON (1929), and THE MUMMY (1953). The resurgence of the horror film in the 1940s, as seen in a series produced by Val Lewton at RR0, is represented by THE CAT PEOPLE (19^), THE CURSE OF THE CAT PEOPLE (19^4), I WALKED WITH A ZOMBIE (19*£), and THE BODY SNAT0HER (19^5). Richard Griffith, Director of the Film Library, and Mr. Mayer, in their book, The Movies, state that "In true horror films, the archcriminal becomes the archfiend the first and greatest of whom was undoubtedly Lon Chaney. ...The year Lon Chaney died [1951], his director, Tod Browning,filmed DRACULA and therewith launched the full vogue of horror films. What made DRACULA a turning-point was that it did not attempt to explain away its tale of vampirism and supernatural horrors.

  • Jackie Coogan Child Actor with Chow Sing Song
    Jackie Coogan child actor with chow Sing Song John Leslie “Jackie” Coogan (October 26, 1914 – March 1, 1984) was an American actor who began his movie career as a child actor in silent films.[ Charlie Chaplin’s film classic The Kid (1921) made him one of the first child stars in film history. Many years later, he became known as Uncle Fester on the 1960s sitcom The Addams Family. In the interim, he sued his mother and stepfather over his squandered film earnings and provoked California to enact the first known legal protection for the earnings of child performers, widely known as the Coogan Act. JACKIE COOGAN AS UNCLE FESTER IN THE ADDAMS FAMILY SOURCE: WIKIPEDIA Charlie Chaplin discovered him in the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles—a vaudeville house—doing the shimmy, a popular dance at the time, on the stage. Coogan’s father was also an actor. Jackie Coogan was a natural mimic and delighted Chaplin with his abilities. Chaplin subsequently cast him in a small role in A Day’s Pleasure (1919). He was Chaplin’s irascible sidekick in The Kid (1921) and played the title role in Oliver Twist, directed by Frank Lloyd, the following year. Coogan was one of the first stars to be heavily merchandised; peanut butter, stationery, whistles, dolls, records, and figurines were among the Coogan-themed merchandise offered. SOURCE CHARLIE CHAPLIN AND JACKIE COOGAN IN “THE KID” SOURCE WIKIPEDIA As a side note, I have seen in a couple of places that Charlie Chaplin owned chows but have yet to see him pictured with one.

  • Film Essay for The
    The Kid By Jeffrey Vance “The Kid” (1921) is one of Charles Chaplin’s finest achievements and remains universally beloved by critics and audiences alike. The film is a perfect blend of comedy and drama and is arguably Chap- lin’s most personal and autobiographical work. Many of the settings and the themes in the film come right out of Chaplin’s own impoverished London child- hood. However, it was the combination of two events, one tragic (the death of his infant son) and one joyful (his chance meeting with Jackie Coogan), that led Chaplin to shape the tale of the abandoned child and the lonely Tramp. The loss of three-day-old Norman Spencer Chaplin undoubtedly had a great effect on Chaplin, and the emotional pain appears to have triggered his creativ- ity, as he began auditioning child actors at the Chap- lin Studios ten days after his son’s death. It was dur- ing this period that Chaplin encountered a four-year- old child performer named Jackie Coogan at Orphe- um Theater in Los Angeles, where his father had just performed an eccentric dance act. Chaplin spent more than an hour talking to Jackie in the lob- by of the Alexandria Hotel, but the idea of using Jackie in a film did not occur to him. After he heard that Roscoe Arbuckle had just signed Coogan, Chaplin agonized over his missed opportunity. Later, Charlie Chaplin as The Tramp sits in a doorway with the he discovered that Arbuckle had signed Jack orphan he has taken under his wing (Jackie Coogan).

  • Hollywood's Silent Echoes Cahuenga Tour 2018
    Hollywood’s Silent Echoes Tour Late in 1921 a mob of angry police chased Buster Keaton down a narrow Hollywood alley towards Cahuenga Boulevard. Entering the street Buster saw to his right a corner where “America’s Sweetheart” Mary Pickford filmed a scene in 1918 beside what is now an adult book store. To his left Buster saw the former Hollywood fire/police station where he would shoot five different films. All seems lost when Buster boldly stops and turns to face his pursuers – then suddenly, grabbing a passing car one-handed, he flies out of frame to safety. This breathtaking stunt, appearing in Keaton’s most famous short film Cops (1922), was filmed on Cahuenga just south of Hollywood Boulevard. Unburdened by permit regulations and truckloads of sound equipment, the silent movie filmmakers roamed freely seeking the best locations to shoot. In the process they created a vast photographic record of early Hollywood and Los Angeles, capturing historic streets and settings that often no longer exist. But as fleeting images projected on a screen, this record remained hidden in plain sight for decades until digital technology allowed us the time to freeze these moments and take a closer look. Remarkably, the great silent film comedians Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, and Harold Lloyd filmed more frequently on the block of Cahuenga south of Hollywood Boulevard than at any other spot in town. It’s easy to speculate why. All three stars had studios close by (the Keaton Studio was just six blocks to the south), and with its numerous alleys and generic commercial buildings, filming on this “urban” street saved them from making trips to downtown Los Angeles to shoot.

Heller: The Price of Celebrity: When a Child's Star-Studded Career Amount LEGISLATIVE UPDATES THE PRICE OF CELEBRITY: WHEN A CHILD'S STAR-STUDDED CAREER AMOUNTS TO NOTHING INTRODUCTION A minor in the United States cannot lay claim to the money that he earns; instead, it belongs to his parents.! Essentially, the parents can manage the money in whatever way they see fit -- even if that means spending and not saving the child's earnings.2 Later, when the child reaches the age of majority he often finds nothing left of his money; an empty bank account is a common conclusion to a 3 child's star-studded career. The Coogan Law, adopted to protect a portion of a child actor's earnings, was enacted in 1939, a time when Hollywood's actors were under contract with studios.4 Today, there is not a studio system.

  • Jackie Coogan
    Jackie Coogan Titles: 19 Sources: 7 Stills: 113 Born: John Leslie Coogan Jr; Los Angeles; 1915 Died: Elder brother of Robert Coogan [qv]; grandfather of Keith Coogan [qv] The androgynous looks, as much as the native theatrical talent from his father, were the key to Coogan’s enduring childhood celebrity. There is more of Clara Bow about him than Mickey Rooney, and the look was widely imitated. Source: indeterminate Jackie at his most coquettish, like a ragtime Cupid, button-nosed, mop-haired and knees sparkly clean. From the dustjacket of The Moving Picture Boy Not the first child actor in the cinema of course, but certainly the first child star, and he remained the pre-eminent name until the arrival of Shirley Temple, who eclipsed his memory, although Coogan during his brief peak was every bit the international celebrity she later became. Coogan however did not sing or dance, and his popularity with the public relied solely on winsome appeal. Aside from "THE KID", in which he upstaged even Chaplin, none of his films are seen today, so it is impossible to assess his actual talent. He made an extremely young “OLIVER TWIST” to Lon Chaney's Fagin, and landed the usual American boy star roles of "PECK'S BAD BOY" and "TOM SAWYER", but most of his vehicles were written expressly for him. He later became the centre of a national scandal when it emerged the totality of his childhood earnings as a major studio star had been splurged by his selfish mother and stepfather. The case resulted in the passing of what came to be known as the "Coogan law", protecting the earnings of child performers.

  • TSAP 2016 Screening Schedule
    To Save and Project: The 14th MoMA International Festival of Film Preservation Screening Schedule November 2–23, 2016 The Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters Cock of the Air. 1932. USA. Directed by Tom Buckingham. Screenplay by Charles Lederer, Robert E. Sherwood. With Chester Morris, Billie Dove, Matt Moore. Co-presented with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, this New York premiere kicks off To Save and Project. Producer Howard Hughes combined two of his principal interests—one of them was airplanes—for this amazingly raunchy comedy set in Europe during World War I, with Chester Morris as an American pilot with an international reputation as a womanizer and Billie Dove as a French actress determined to teach him a lesson. Hughes tried but failed to sneak the film past the Hays censorship office and was forced to cut nearly two reels of footage; this restoration from the Academy Film Archive includes much of the censored imagery and uses newly recorded dialogue to fill in lines removed from the surviving soundtrack. The unheralded director Tom Buckingham demonstrates a surprisingly assured hand with extreme long takes, a technique he may have learned as a writer on Tay Garnett’s Her Man. DCP. 80 min. Wednesday, November 2, 4:30 (introduced by Michael Pogorzelski, Director, and Heather Linville, Film Preservationist, Academy Film Archive) Sunday, November 6, 4:00 p.m. The Front Page. 1931. USA. Directed by Lewis Milestone. Screenplay by Ben Hecht, Charles MacArthur, based on their play. With Pat O’Brien, Adolphe Menjou, Mary Brian. Co-presented with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, this New York premiere kicks off To Save and Project.
