  • He Museum of Modern Art 1 West 53Rd Street, New York Telephone: Circle 5-8900 for Immediate Release
    401109 - 68 HE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART 1 WEST 53RD STREET, NEW YORK TELEPHONE: CIRCLE 5-8900 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART OPENS LARGE EXHIBITION OF WORK OF D. W. GRIFFITH, FILM MASTER It is difficult to blueprint genius, but in its exhibition documenting the life and work of David Wark Griffith the Museum cf Modern Art, 11 West 53 Street, will attempt to show the progressive steps through which this American film pioneer between 1909 and 1919 brought to the motion picture the greatest contribution made by any. single individual. In that important decade he taught the movies to become an original and powerful instrument of expression in their own right. The Griffith exhibition.will open to xhe public Wednesday, November 13, simultaneously with an exhibition of the work of another American, the two combined under the title Two Great Ameri­ cans : Frank Lloyd Wright, American Architect and D. W. Griffith, American Film Master. Although at first glance there may seem to be no connection between them, actually a curious parallel exists. America's greatest film director and America's greatest architect, the one in the second decade of this century, the other roughly from 1905 to 1914, had an immense influence on European motion pictures and architecture. After the first World War this influ­ ence was felt in the country of its origin in the guise of new European trends, even though European architects and motion picture directors openly acknowledged their debt to Wright and Griffith. The Griffith exhibition was assembled by Iris Barry, Curator of the Museum's Film Library, and installed by her and Allen Porter, Cir­ culation Director.

Meadowbrook Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85014 | (602) 266-6956 or 1-800-229-8622 p. 1 of 55 Dear United Methodist Friends, On behalf of the United Methodist Immigration Task Force I want to thank you for walking compassionately with our immigrant brothers and sisters, and for your willingness to host a screening of the film, Made in LA. Made in LA is the story of three immigrant women, who have come to Los Angeles to work in the garment industry out of a desire to better care for their families. In the end, these women discover the power of their collective voice as they stand together in unity against exploitation by the retailer, Forever 21. The story beautifully illustrates the courage, perseverance, and strength that these women show daily in caring for their families, contributing to their communities, organizing to overcome exploitation, and building a life that is both inspiring and challenging. I pray that you and members of your faith community will watch this important film with open hearts and open minds. Attached you will find materials that will help you organize and publicize a screening of the film in your community. We hope these materials will help equip you to lead a discussion of the film. We are also including two of the immigration resolutions of The United Methodist Church along with discussion questions specifically designed for them.

  • Melodrama As Vernacular Modernism in China: the Case of D
    Scope: An Online Journal of Film and Television Studies Issue 26 February 2014 Melodrama as Vernacular Modernism in China: The Case of D. W. Griffith Qijun Han, Utrecht University In an article on the pitfalls of cross-cultural analysis, film scholar Emilie Yueh-yu Yeh has proposed replacing the term “melodrama” with “wenyi,” as it can “locate an intrinsic and perhaps more illuminating concept than melodrama to explain Chinese-language cinemas” (Yeh, 2009: 438). In Yeh’s view: Wenyi and melodrama are literally discordant: letters and arts (wenyi) vs. musical theatre (melo-drama). One emphasizes literary value and artistic taste; popular fiction that aspires to serious literature. The other offers the theatrical display and emotional excitement of the sort found in stage musicals (cf. Broadway, operetta, vaudeville). (Yeh, 2009: 445) Yeh is not the first to highlight the concept of wenyi. As early as 1985, Cai Guorong had already raised this issue. For him: Chinese wenyi melodrama developed along two lines: those works that deal with family relationships and ethics, and those that depict romances. […] First, films of this genre use contemporary or recent society as a backdrop; second, they deal with human emotions and are therefore lyrical to an extent. (Cai, 1985; in Zhang, 2012: 25) Yeh has convincingly shown how wenyi connects with and departs from melodrama, and in particular, her historical account of wenyi is a highly valuable tool in interpreting contemporary Chinese films. By proposing to substitute wenyi for melodrama, Yeh has pointed to a set of conceptual tensions underpinning the term melodrama, which is in turn relevant to several issues, such as translation and cultural identity in the aftermath of colonialism and imperialism.
