First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006
First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006 Jonathan R. Polansky Stanton Glantz, PhD CENTER FOR TOBAccO CONTROL RESEARCH AND EDUCATION UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN FRANCISCO SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94143 April 2007 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Smoking among American adults fell by half between 1950 and 2002, yet smoking on U.S. movie screens reached historic heights in 2002, topping levels observed a half century earlier.1 Tobacco’s comeback in movies has serious public health implications, because smoking on screen stimulates adolescents to start smoking,2,3 accounting for an estimated 52% of adolescent smoking initiation. Equally important, researchers have observed a dose-response relationship between teens’ exposure to on-screen smoking and smoking initiation: the greater teens’ exposure to smoking in movies, the more likely they are to start smoking. Conversely, if their exposure to smoking in movies were reduced, proportionately fewer teens would likely start smoking. To track smoking trends at the movies, previous analyses have studied the U.S. motion picture industry’s top-grossing films with the heaviest advertising support, deepest audience penetration, and highest box office earnings.4,5 This report is unique in examining the U.S. movie industry’s total output, and also in identifying smoking movies, tobacco incidents, and tobacco impressions with the companies that produced and/or distributed the films — and with their parent corporations, which claim responsibility for tobacco content choices. Examining Hollywood’s product line-up, before and after the public voted at the box office, sheds light on individual studios’ content decisions and industry-wide production patterns amenable to policy reform. -
Tales from the Crypt
Ah, HBO. Here in the year 2014, those three little initials are shorthand for quality, original programming; small screen event television almost certain to be immeasurably superior to the megabucks offerings of your local multiplex. The network also boasts a rich tradition of brining monsters into our living rooms, with the unsavoury actions of Livia Soprano, Gyp Rosetti, Cy Tolliver and Joffrey Baratheon horrifying viewers of all walks of life. Way back in the late 1980s, however, HBO introduced us to an altogether different kind of miscreant; a wisecracking living corpse, a teller of tall tales that focussed on vampires, zombies and the evil that men do. Jackanory it most certainly wasn’t – we’re referring, of course, to the legendary Tales from the Crypt. In the 80s, TV anthology horror was as much a fixture as leg warmers, John Hughes movies and the musical stylings of Duran Duran. Rod Serling’s Twilight Zone had enjoyed a redux, James Coburn invited us to his Darkroom, a certain pizza-faced dream demon hosted Freddy’s Nightmares, and genre enthusiasts were gripped by the Ray Bradbury Theater. Perhaps the most prosperous purveyor of small screen shivers was producer Richard Rubinstein, who enjoyed phenomenal success with Tales from the Darkside (the brainchild of none other than George Romero, director of the beloved portmanteau picture Creepshow) and Monsters. Bright and breezy 30-minute creature features with their tongue frequently placed firmly in their cheek, these shows were heavily influenced by the infamous EC horror comics of the 1950s, with a perverse sense of morality at the dark heart of the stories. -

HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007
1 HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007 Submitted by Gareth Andrew James to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, January 2011. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ........................................ 2 Abstract The thesis offers a revised institutional history of US cable network Home Box Office that expands on its under-examined identity as a monthly subscriber service from 1972 to 1994. This is used to better explain extensive discussions of HBO‟s rebranding from 1995 to 2007 around high-quality original content and experimentation with new media platforms. The first half of the thesis particularly expands on HBO‟s origins and early identity as part of publisher Time Inc. from 1972 to 1988, before examining how this affected the network‟s programming strategies as part of global conglomerate Time Warner from 1989 to 1994. Within this, evidence of ongoing processes for aggregating subscribers, or packaging multiple entertainment attractions around stable production cycles, are identified as defining HBO‟s promotion of general monthly value over rivals. Arguing that these specific exhibition and production strategies are glossed over in existing HBO scholarship as a result of an over-valuing of post-1995 examples of „quality‟ television, their ongoing importance to the network‟s contemporary management of its brand across media platforms is mapped over distinctions from rivals to 2007. -

ALIENCOVENANT PB Ita 2
! Regia di Ridley Scott Michael Fassbender Katherine Waterston Billy Crudup Danny McBride Demian Bichir *** Uscita: 11 Maggio 2017 Distribuzione: 20th Century Fox Italia Durata: 121 minuti *** Ufficio stampa 20th Century Fox Giancarlo Sozi : <[email protected]> Cristina Partenza: < [email protected]> Ufficio stampa web Alessandra Giovannetti <[email protected]> *** #AlienCovenant https://www.facebook.com/AlienFilmIt/ http://www.aliencovenant-trovasala.it/ www.20thfox.it Nello spazio nessuno può sentirti urlare. Dopo quasi quattro decadi, queste parole rimangono sinonimo dell'assoluta e incessante tensione di quel capolavoro dell’orrore fantascientifico che è stato Alien di Ridley Scott. Ora, il padre del leggendario franchise, ritorna ancora una volta al mondo che ha creato per esplorarne i suoi recessi più oscuri con ALIEN: COVENANT, una nuova avventura al cardiopalma che spinge in avanti i confini del terrore per i film vietati ai minori. A bordo dell’astronave Covenant tutto è tranquillo; l’equipaggio e le altre 2.000 anime sul vascello d’esplorazione sono profondamente addormentate nell’iper-sonno, lasciando che Walter, l’organismo sintetico a bordo, cammini da solo per i corridoi. La nave è in viaggio verso il lontano pianeta Origae-6, sul fianco estremo della galassia, dove i coloni sperano di stabilire un nuovo avamposto per l’umanità. La pacifica tranquillità del viaggio viene interrotta quando una vicina esplosione stellare distrugge le vele di raccolta di energia della Covenant, provocando decine di vittime e facendo deragliare la missione. Ben presto i membri superstiti dell’equipaggio scoprono quello che sembra essere un paradiso inesplorato, un Eden indisturbato con montagne coperte di nuvole e immensi alberi altissimi, molto più vicino di Origae-6 e potenzialmente altrettanto valido per ospitarli. -
Tarnished Angels
The Dark Vision of Douglas Sirk 38 NOIR CITY I SPRING 2016 I filmnoirfoundation.org Imogen Sara Smith n a hot night in New Orleans, in a half-lit, elegantly shabby apartment, two troubled souls share a bottle of cheap wine and an intimate, confessional conversation. Next door, a raucous costume party is in full swing, revelers dancing like hopped-up zombies to relentless Dixieland jazz. The man and woman speak tenderly about betrayals and disillusion- O ment, building to a kiss that is jarringly interrupted by Death— a guy in a leering skull mask who bursts in from the party. This scene, from Douglas Sirk’s underappreciated drama The Tarnished Angels (1958), dramatizes one of the director’s key themes: people struggling for authentic connection, surrounded by an oppressive, sinister masquerade of happi- ness. Sirk is best known for baroquely stylized Technicolor melodramas, once dismissed as sudsy kitsch but now embraced by many cinephiles for their formalist rigor and their subversive notes of unease. The work of a European intellectual often saddled with projects he disdained, Sirk’s films are complex, oblique, and visually incisive. One of the few German refugee filmmakers who didnot specialize in film noir, Sirk shared his fellow exiles’ gimlet eye for his adopted country. His lush melodramas strike a dissonant note, resonating from the hollowness behind the false front of the American “good life.” Like his sophisticated noir films of the 1940s, they reveal an insatiable hunger bred by idealized visions of plenty, and the paradoxical seduc- tion of death in a willfully complacent society.
