  • Samson and Delilah
    SAMSON AND DELILAH USA 1948 131 minutes Director Cecil B. De Mille Writers Fredric M Frank; Vladimir Jabotinsky; Harold Lane; Jesse Lasky Jr Music Victor Young Cinematography George Barnes Dewey Wrigley (holy land photography) Cast Samson Victor Mature Miriam Olive Deering Delilah Hedy Lamarr Hazel Fay Holden Semadar Angela Lansbury Haisham Julia Faye Prince Ahtur Henry Wilcoxon Saul Russ Tamblyn I have fond memories of this film as one shown on the Saturday Night at the Movies spot, when I was much younger. The feats of strength of Samson were most impressive to a callow youth unaware of the tricks of the movie industry! Samson and Delilah, is an enjoyable romp, which both stars appear to have relished. Whilst not a profound film, it is a fitting tribute to two stars who were interesting individuals at a period when the studios ruled the lives of their contracted stars extremely closely. Cecil B De Mille directed the film, and it is of course one of the numerous spectacularly lavish and colourful biblical epics he made. Another reason for selecting this film was simply to show that our Committee has a good sense of humour and does not consider itself too seriously! ************************************* Hedy Lamarr passed away on 19 January 2000. In this film, she was an impressive attraction to any young teenager. Her allure was heightened by the startling news of her early nude acting role. Born Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler in Vienna on 9 November 1914, she enrolled in Max Reinhardt’s acting school and he was so convinced of her potential that he took her on as a personal pupil.

  • A Pithy Pythian Piece
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard A Pithy Pythian Piece Marx Brothers aficionados may recall Groucho Marx in the role of African explorer and celebrated big-game hunter Captain Jeffrey T. Spaulding in Animal Crackers. In it he delivers some memorable lines, such as: “One morning, I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don't know.” “We took some pictures of the native girls, but they weren't developed. But we're going back in a couple of weeks!” Groucho as Captain Spaulding “The principal animals inhabiting the African jungle are Moose, Elks and Knights of Pythias. Of course you all know what a moose is. That's big game. The first day I shot two bucks. That was the biggest game we had. As I say, you all know what a moose is. A moose runs around on the floor, eats cheese and is chased by the cat. The Elks, on the other hand, live up in the hills. And in the spring they come down for their annual convention. It is very interesting to watch them come to the water hole, and you should see them run when they find it is only a water hole. What they’re looking for is an Elka-hole.” The Knights of Pythias, mentioned by Groucho, is a fraternal organization established Febraury 19, 1864, at Washington, D. C. Founded by Justus H. Rathbone and the first fraternal organization to receive its charter by an act of the U.

He was wandering through Hampstead Heath, absent- mindedly brooding, deep in thought, his brow furrowed. “We call communism the real movement which abolishes the present state of things,” he said aloud to no one in particular. He seemed completely oblivious of the moustached comic striding stooped beside him, his prominent eyebrows raised as high as Karl’s were Marx vs Marx knitted together. “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, Karl Marx, author of The Communist Manifesto and finding it everywhere, Das Kapital, died in 1883. Groucho Marx, comedian, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies,” wit and raconteur, was born in 1890. So, of course, said Groucho Marx. they could never have met. But if they had… Karl looked to his strange companion as though he had never laid eyes on him before. “From the moment I picked “Reason has always existed, that determines their Which, of course, he hadn’t. your book up until I laid it but not always in a reasonable ALAMY consciousness,” said Karl. “A spectre is haunting Europe down, I was convulsed with form,” muttered Karl, under “Well, everybody’s got – the spectre of communism!” laughter.

  • Hollywood in Vernacular: Translation and Cross-Cultural Reception of American Films in Turkey
    17 Hollywood in Vernacular: Translation and Cross-Cultural Reception of American Films in Turkey Ahmet Gürata To write the international history of classical American cinema … is a matter of tracing not just its mechanisms of standardization and hegemony but also the diversity of ways in which this cinema was translated and reconfigured in both local and translocal contexts of reception.1 Cinema as ‘Vernacular Modernism’ The world-wide success of classical Hollywood cinema is usually attributed to a combination of its universal intelligibility, derived from its popular and hybrid nature, and the cultural imperialism that resulted from the enormous economic power of the U.S culture industry. According to the first argument, Hollywood films developed a narrative style that different audiences throughout the world found easy to comprehend. As Will Hays, President of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America, Inc. (MPPDA), recalled in his Memoirs, ‘American films of the earliest silent picture era had to be designed to appeal to the less educated groups and to the large foreign-language sections of our own population. It was essential that the viewer should be able to follow the story whether understanding English or not.
