The idea of passing relied on the notion that there was an authentic racial self that one was concealing. The mulatta represents assimilation, the end of blackness, and the end of the discussion on racism. Elia Kazan’s 1949 “problem film” Pinky, based on the novel Quality, in many ways embodies the traditional passing narrative. Danzy Senna’s 1998 novel Caucasia, on the other hand, acts as both a testimony of the lived experiences of being multiracial and critique of the rigidity of racial categories in the United States. Senna argues that race is more performative than biological. By centering on a racially mixed young woman and her family, Caucasia complicates and deconstructs the black/white binary and challenges multicultural theory.

  • Twentieth Century Fox: 1935-1965
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release June 1990 Twentieth Century Fox: 1935-1965 July 1 - September 11, 1990 This summer, The Museum of Modern Art pays tribute to Twentieth Century Fox with a retrospective of over ninety films made between 1935 and 1965. Opening on July 1, 1990, TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX: 1935-1965 traces three key decades in the history of the studio, celebrating the talents of the artists on both sides of the cameras who shaped this period. The exhibition continues through September 11. Formed in 1915, the Fox Film Corporation merged in 1935 with the much younger Twentieth Century to launch a major new studio. Under the supervision of Darryl F. Zanuck, Twentieth Century Fox developed a new house style, emphasizing epic biographies such as John Ford's The Prisoner of Shark Island (1936) and Allan Dwan's Suez (1938) and snappy urban pictures such as Sidney Lanfield's Hake Up and Live (1937) and Roy Del Ruth's Thanks a Million (1935). The studio also featured such fresh screen personalities as Tyrone Power, Alice Faye, and Shirley Temple. From this time on, the studio masterfully anticipated and shaped the tastes of the movie-going public. During World War II, Twentieth Century Fox made its mark with a series of exuberant Technicolor musicals featuring such actresses as Betty Grable and Carmen Miranda. After the war, the studio shifted focus and began to highlight other genres including films noirs such as Edmund Goulding's Nightmare Alley (1947) and Otto Preminger's Where the Sidewalk Ends (1950), wry satirical films such as Joseph L.

  • State Fair by Aubrey Solomon
    State Fair By Aubrey Solomon Philip Stong, an Iowa newspaperman who had experienced life on a farm, published his first novel, “State Fair,” in the spring of 1932 and it became a nationwide bestseller. The motion picture rights were quickly purchased by Fox’s head of production, Winfield Sheehan, for a reported $15,000. Fox had suffered three years of withering financial returns due to the Depres- sion economy, an over-expansion of its theater chain, and protracted near- bankruptcy litigation. Sheehan saw “State Fair” as a potential blockbuster even though its rural tone and char- acters were atypical for a high-budget production.

    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.
