Private Romeo Movie Title: PRIVATE ROMEO (feature film, 98mins) Writer/Director: Alan Brown Based on William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet When eight cadets are left behind at an isolated military high school, the greatest romantic drama ever written seeps out of the classroom and permeates their lives. Incorporating the original text of Romeo and Juliet, YouTube videos, and lip-synced indie rock music, Private Romeo takes us to a mysterious and tender place that only Shakespeare could have inspired. Cast: Seth Numrich, Matt Doyle, Hale Appleman, Chris Bresky, Sean Hudock, Adam Barrie, Bobby Moreno, and Charlie Barnett Distributors View the trailer: www.youtube.com/user/privateromeomovie Visit the website for updated news, background: www.privateromeothemovie.com/ http://www.facebook.com/pages/Private-Romeo/123162147748863 http://twitter.com/privateromeo The soundtrack features songs from the indie-rock group Bishop Allen. Listen for their hit songs, The Magpie and Busted Heart. Private Romeo is Alan’s fourth film. His first, the half-hour narrative O Beautiful (Strand Releasing, Boys Life 4), won the Future Filmmaker Award at the 2002 Palm Springs International Short Film Festival, and was an official selection of the 2003 Sundance Film Festival. It was singled out by critics as “a rare piece of film making.” His feature debut, Book of Love (Sundance Channel Home Entertainment) which stars Simon Baker, Frances O’Connor, and Bryce Dallas Howard, was praised for its “creepy eroticism and sly intelligence” and for being “a movie that feels about as real as it’s possible to be.” It was nominated for a Grand Jury Prize at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival. Alan’s second feature film was Superheroes (IFC) starring Dash Mihok and Spencer Treat Clark. Praised by critics as “brimming with a rare compassion,” it won numerous prizes including the Feature Filmmaker’s Award at the 2007 Avignon/New York Film Festival, the Maverick Spirit Award (top prize) at the 2008 Cinequest Film Festival, and both the Narrative Feature and Best Film awards at the 2008 Brooklyn International Film Festival. Alan is also the author of the acclaimed novel, Audrey Hepburn’s Neck, which won the Pacific Rim Book Prize, and has been translated into eight languages. The film version, which Alan will direct, is slated for production in 2012. Alan is the recipient of many writing and directing awards, including a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship for his fiction, a Fulbright Fellowship in Journalism, and numerous residency fellowships, including those to the MacDowell Colony, Yaddo, and the Edward Albee and Ucross Foundations. He lives in New York City. Though Romeo and Juliet is usually interpreted as a romantic tale of young love thwarted by a family feud, recent re-readings convinced me that it is actually a much more modern, and relevant story about sexual identity and desire pitted against society and its institutions; about personal freedom and rights versus authority. As a gay man and an artist, frustrated by the political battles, and inaction, over gay equality, and by the heart-breaking epidemic of gay bullying, I thought Shakespeare would be the perfect vehicle for exploring these issues. As Private Romeo’s high school military cadets find themselves in the kinds of emotionally tumultuous situations – falling in love; the loss of friendship; confronting homophobia – that would leave any adolescent (or adult) at a loss for words, they must use Shakespeare’s language as their sole means of expression, forcing them to explore the profound drama of coming-of-age. –ALAN BROWN Seth Numrich Matt Doyle Seth Numrich & Matt Doyle Seth Numrich & Bobby Moreno Sean Hudock, Seth Numrich & Bobby Moreno Matt Doyle & Seth Numrich Chris Bresky Adam Barrie, Hale Appleman, Matt Doyle, Chris Bresky, Sean Hudock, Seth Numrich, Bobby Moreno & Charlie Barnett Hale Appleman & Sean Hudock Bobby Moreno & Hale Appleman Matt Doyle & Seth Numrich Hale Appleman, Matt Doyle & Seth Numrich Director Alan Brown ALL STUDIO PHOTOGRAPHY BY CHRIS VONGSAWAT SETH NUMRICH (SAM SINGLETON ) Private Romeo is Seth’s first feature film.

    Becoming Youth: Coming of Age in Shakespeare and Marlowe by Rachel Prusko A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Department of English and Film Studies University of Alberta © Rachel Prusko, 2014 Abstract While studies in Renaissance childhoods, literary and historical, are becoming more prominent, this work has failed to distinguish between children and adolescents, leaving youth, as such, largely unexamined. My project attends not to the children of early modern drama, but to post-pubescent characters in their teen years, and argues that many plays literalize the ‘re-naissance’ of teenagers (‘adolescents’ or ‘youths’ in early modern England), reimagining what it meant to be young during a period when discourses surrounding youth were already clearly, yet crudely, defined. This thesis is a historicized analysis of young characters in several plays: Marlowe’s Edward II, and Shakespeare’s The Merry Wives of Windsor, Henry IV, Part 1, Henry IV, Part 2, Henry V, Romeo and Juliet, Pericles, The Winter’s Tale, and The Tempest. I argue that these plays intervene in the standard definitions so frequently applied to teenagers during the early modern period. The perception, on the one hand, of youthful behavior as violent, reckless, and rash was commonplace: Protestant preachers and moralists of the day insisted that young people were naturally prone to sin, rebelliousness, and unruly behavior, and so required strict regulation. On the other hand, optimistic portrayals of youth abounded as well: the age of youth was associated with hope and beauty as often as it was with folly and sin.

    A Publication for Members and Friends of MHAOhio Spring 2020 Kenton Beachy, Executive Director Maureen Traverse, Editor Racism Is a Mental HealthAdvocate Issue by Maureen Traverse Racism is a mental health issue. Repeated experiences of racism, whether direct or vicarious, may lead to racial trauma or race-based traumatic stress, and research shows that trauma impacts both mental and physical wellbeing. Symptoms of race-based trauma can look like those of post-traumatic stress disorder – recurring thoughts of the experience, anger, depression, headaches, chest pains, insomnia – but race-based trauma is not considered a mental health disorder. It is a mental injury caused by living within a racist system or experiencing racist events. Racism is pervasive in the United States, and it takes many forms, from overt expressions of racism like slurs and racial violence to subtler but equally harmful microaggressions like assumptions about education or interests based on race, failing to use a person’s preferred who are white…BIPOC are less likely to have access to name, or claiming that someone talks too much about mental health services, less likely to seek out services, race. At the systemic level, racism takes the form of less likely to receive needed care, more likely to receive voter suppression, income and housing disparities, mass poor quality of care, and more likely to end services incarceration, and aggressive policing of BIPOC (Black, prematurely.” Multiple factors contribute to these Indigenous, people of color) communities. disparities, but distrust of a mental health system that has long misdiagnosed and even abused BIPOC is a part of Vicarious trauma still impacts mental health, and trauma the problem.

Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/48836 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au Desiring Dexter: the pangs and pleasures of serial killer body technique Stephanie Green1 School of Humanities, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Australia Abstract The television series Dexter uses the figure of appealing monstrosity to unfold troubled relationships between corporeality, spectatorship and desire. Through a plastic-wrapped display of body horror, lightly veiled by suburban romance, Dexter turns its audience on to the consuming sensations of blood, death and dismemberment while simultaneously alluding to its own narrative and ethical contradictions. The excitations of Dexter are thus encapsulated within a tension between form and content as ambivalent and eroticised desire; both for heroic transgression and narrative resolution. Arguably, however, it is Dexter’s execution of a carefully developed serial killer body technique which makes this series so compelling. Through an examination of Dexter and his plotted body moves, this paper explores the representations of intimacy and murderous identity in this contemporary example of domestic screen horror entertainment. Keywords: Dexter, body-technique, desire, crime television, horror 1 [email protected] Launched in 2006, the television drama series Dexter has been a ratings record- breaker for its network producers (Showtime, CBS 2007-2011).

  • Gender and Sexuality in Adaptations of Shakespeare Organizer: Deanne Williams, York University
    SAA Seminar: Gender and Sexuality in Adaptations of Shakespeare Organizer: Deanne Williams, York University. 1. The Fiendlike Queen: Recuperating the Feminine in Modern Adaptations of Macbeth William C. Carroll Boston University Terry Eagleton’s notorious comment – “To any unprejudiced reader – which would seem to exclude Shakespeare himself, his contemporary audiences and almost all literary critics – it is surely clear that positive value in Macbeth lies with the three witches. The witches are the heroines of the piece, however little the play itself recognizes the fact” (William Shakespeare, p. 2) – is just one of many attempts in recent decades to recast the witches in a more positive light, an effort that has had considerable success. Lady Macbeth has proven to be a harder case to rehabilitate, at least on the stage (as seen recently in Kate Fleetwood’s harrowing depiction with Patrick Stewart in Rupert Goold’s version). In adaptations of the past century, however, especially those written by women and those for younger readers, a very different picture of the “fiend-like queen” has emerged. These representations move far away from earlier texts in which “Lady Macbeth” is little more than a synonym for a murderous woman. Several recent works instead seek explanation or rationale for her participation in Duncan’s murder through reference to her earlier marriage and son by that marriage (both suppressed in Shakespeare’s play), to her situation as a woman in a culture of Celtic masculinity, and even to a supposed daughter (Klein) with whom Lady Macbeth (not dead in this version!) is ultimately reunited.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.
