Mitzi Gaynor itzi Gaynor, star of stage and screen, is best knownsfor her role as Ensign Nellie llilbpfepin the Rodgeb'and Hamrrierstein musical South Pacific. To describe Mitzi Gaynor is to form a picture of the complete entertainer, which she has been since starting her career at the age of 12 in the corps de ballet of the Los Angeles Civic Light Opera. Her vibrant personality and singing, dancing, and acting talents have since found her as a star of motion pictures, television, the theatrical stage, Las Vegas, and concerts. She was recognized by her peers when the theatrical union of entertainers voted her "Singing and Dancing Star of the Year," presented on national video by George Burns. Gaynor was virtually born into the theatre; her mother was a dancer, her father a professional musician. When the family moved from her native Chicago, she was discovered by legendary Los Angeles theatrical producer Edwin Lester, and made her debut as a dancer in Song without Words for the Los Angeles Civic Light Opera.

In the planning of his movies, he seemed to work alternately toward two complementary goals: to build the dances into the structure of the film as its central, expressive essence; or, to use dances to change the mood entirely, in counterpoint to the rest of the picture, as if a second self were emerging." *The Cinema of Gene Kellv.

  • The Lady Eve Written and Directed by Preston Sturges USA 1941, 92 Mins, Cert U a BFI Release
    The Lady Eve Written and directed by Preston Sturges USA 1941, 92 mins, Cert U A BFI release Starring Barbara Stanwyck, Henry Fonda, Charles Coburn 'You can't get a better romantic comedy than The Lady Eve' Peter Bogdanovich (Paper Moon, The Last Picture Show) Opening at selected cinemas UK-wide from 15 February 2019 with Valentine’s Day previews 18 December 2018 – The Lady Eve is a match made in cinematic heaven; a screwball comedy from the master of the genre, Preston Sturges (1898–1959), starring two film legends – Barbara Stanwyck (1907–1990) and Henry Fonda (1905–1982). This fast- talking battle-of-the-sexes romance returns to the big screen in selected cinemas UK- wide on 15 February 2019, with Valentine’s Day previews offering a dream night out on 14 February for fans of the Golden Age of Hollywood. The film will be screened as an extended run during ‘Starring Barbara Stanwyck’, the forthcoming season at BFI Southbank that takes place from 1 February until 20 March 2019. The Lady Eve was based on a short story by the screenwriter and playwright Monckton Hoffe who in turn played on the biblical fable of Adam and Eve. Glamourous con-artist Jean Harrington (Barbara Stanwyck) manipulates her way through life, getting what she wants with skill, charm and charisma. On a cruise ship, she sets her sights on Charles ‘Hopsie’ Pike (Henry Fonda), an innocent, gullible millionaire and snake scientist, who falls for her in a heartbeat. But he learns about her dubious past… and her ruse comes undone when she genuinely falls for him… In one of her most memorable roles, Barbara Stanwyck brilliantly portrays a confident, witty, resourceful woman in pursuit of revenge – and love.

    Dance Critic Debra Levine to Co-Host “Choreography by Jack Cole” on Turner Classic Movies Monday September 10, 2012 ULCA Film & Television Archive and the Dance Heritage Coalition also honor the gifted choreographer TCM Host Robert Osborne with dance critic Debra Levine. Photos courtesy TCM PH Mark Hill. Los Angeles-based dance critic and arts journalist Debra Levine (Los Angeles Times, The Huffington Post, artsmeme.com) will co-host a special tribute to the influential dance maker Jack Cole (1911-1974) on Turner Classic Movies. The four-film tribute will be broadcast on September 10, 2012 starting at 8 pm ET (5 pm PT). Ms. Levine joins TCM’s veteran host Robert Osborne to provide commentary. From 1941 to 1962, Cole pioneered American jazz dance as an art form in Hollywood films. He contributed dance sequences to 30 movies at Columbia Pictures, Twentieth Century Fox, and Metro Goldwyn Mayer, some credited, some not. Cole left behind a celluloid track record of outstanding filmed dance sequences with highly diverse themes, all with a recognizable Cole brand that is uncannily contemporary.

  • Pictorial Article with Captions
    NOTES ON JEFFREY HUNTER AND HIS FILMS by Jim Meyer "Jeffrey Hunter is beautiful!" a girl friend gurgled to me some 15 years ago. And indeed he was, as any man not envious of Hunter's impressive 6' 1" height and blue-eyed, brown-haired handsomeness must admit. As is well enough known, many film actors have little more to offer audiences than handsomeness. But far too many critics (men and women alike) too quickly tabbed the exceptionally hand- some actor "beautiful but bland." But teen-age girls didn't mind. Many didn't care whether he could act. In Jeffrey Hunter they saw (or thought they saw) a dream prince, a husky young god, who could fulfill their most imaginative fantasies. Less dazzled male viewers saw something else: a man who was handsome enough for them to resent, largely, one suspects, because many of them wished that his good looks belonged to them, and, not being able to measure up, consoled themselves by insisting that he couldn't act and wouldn't last long in films. Obviously, Hunter had to work twice as hard as many another actor of his type to prove he was a good actor. I believe he succeeded although he never became a superstar. Did Hunter's good looks make him arrogant, overbearing, and hard to work with? Possibly not, when one recalls that Jean Peters, a co-star of his, once went out of her way to observe that his courtesy toward and consideration for her would be remarkable anywhere but especially in Hollywood.

    Geraghty, C. Paris, Hollywood and Kay Kendall. In Moseley., R. (Eds) Fashioning Film Stars : Dress, Culture, Identity., Chap 10, pages pp. 121-133. BFI (2005) http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/3370/ Glasgow ePrints Service http://eprints.gla.ac.uk PARIS, HOLLYWOOD AND KAY KENDALL Christine Geraghty, University of Glasgow The Constant Husband (GB, Gilliat, 1955) was in many ways a watershed film for the British star, Kay Kendall. Filming took place in the spring and early summer of 1954, when Genevieve (GB, Cornelius, 1953) and Doctor in the House (GB, Thomas,1954), hugely popular British comedies, had already brought her to the attention of the public and the critics. Although there had been problems before over suitable parts for her, it was the last film she made before the very public falling out with Rank Organisation in December 1954 when she was suspended from her contract for turning down a number of proffered parts, including the second Doctor film (Daily Herald, 22 December 1954). It was also the film on which she met and fell in love with her future husband, Rex Harrison, who was already a major star. But The Constant Husband is also significant from the point of view of image and fashion, the aspects of Kay Kendall's later career which are the subject of this essay. It was in this film that elements of Kendall's individual style most clearly seem to be shaping her costumes; it is perhaps not an accident that the costume designer Anna Duse was someone who knew Kendall in her childhood and had taught her dancing (Golden, p.15).

  • Information About Salzburg´S "Stadtkino"
    Information about Salzburg´s "Stadtkino" Austria´s second Todd-AO Theatre Part 1 of 2 Parts -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The very first "Stadtkino" (City Cinema) had once been housed in Salzburg´s old "Festspielhaus" (festival hall) – opening on 25.12.1948. Article above left from "Salzburger Volkszeitung" dated 27.12.1948. On the right the program of the opening film The Best Years of Our Lives (USA, 1946). The article above: "Stadtkino" (City Cinema) has opened On Christmas day, the "Stadtkino" began with its screenings in the "Festspielhaus" (festival hall). Against the improper use of the "Festspielhaus" – such as boxing competitions, perma- nent screenings of films and similar – have repeatedly been raised legitimate protest votes. People fear that the solemn hall of the glamorous Salzburg Festival would now (outside the festival season) be degraded by simple everyday events without upscale festival character. But, as we now learn, the use of the "Festspielhaus" as a "Kintopp" is only a provisional. The City of Salzburg intends to erect a new large-scale cinema, which is to be built on Franz- Joseph-Kai on the site of the former Municipal Museum (author´s note: the former Carolino- Augusteum) – the building had been destroyed by bombs. Reportedly, this urban cinema is scheduled to be completed by October 1949 (author´s note: it opened on 01.08.1950). At first, it is planned that there will take place film screenings at the "Festspielhaus" only temporarily – until the beginning of the festival rehearsals in May next year. The very first film that has opened "Stadtkino"´s provisional operation, gives hope that the program creation will have an equal `happy hand´ in future.
