Saturday, March 3, 2 p.m. Saturday, March 3, 8 p.m. Sunday, March 4, 2 p.m. Footlight Parade Directed by Lloyd Bacon With James Cagney, Joan Blondell, Ruby Keeler, Dick Powell. U.S. 1933, 35mm, Black and White, 104 minutes With silent pictures finished, it’s curtains for the stage musical, a crisis that inspires producer Cagney to create entertainment on an industrial scale; Blondell, as Cagney’s lovelorn secretary, flashes wisecracks and sidelong affection. “Fast-paced, knowing, and arguably the best of the Warner Bros. Depression musicals” (Matthew Kennedy), Footlight ’s Depression-era backstage saga culminates in a trio of Busby Berkeley’s most wildly elaborate numbers, including the legendary “By A Waterfall.” ------------------------------------------------------------- Saturday, March 10, 2 p.m. Sunday, March 11, 2 p.m. Kid Millions Directed by Roy Del Ruth With Eddie Cantor, Ann Sothern, Ethel Merman U.S. 1934, 35mm, black and white and color, 90 minutes Goldywn’s elaborately produced Eddie Cantor vehicle sets the beloved entertainer in a Cinderella-esque story, as a naïve Brooklyn boy who inherits seventy-seven million dollars from his long-lost archaeologist father and sets off for Egypt to claim the fortune. After multiple madcap adventures Eddie returns to New York, where he realizes his dream to open an ice cream factory for children, portrayed in Kid Millions ’ wonderfully fanciful three-color Technicolor finale. ------------------------------------------------------------- Saturday, March 17, 2 p.m. Bright Eyes Directed by David Butler With Shirley Temple, James Dunn, Jane Darwell U.S. 1934, 35mm, black and white, 85 minutes In Bright Eyes , the picture custom-crafted for Temple—and which brought her stardom—the six year old plays a suddenly orphaned child wanted for adoption by multiple suitors, and sings her delightful signature number “On the Good Ship Lollipop.” “At the peak of her popularity [Temple] was an American original, a folk heroine adored by movie audiences who saw in her the ideal child: bright, cheery, and self-reliant” (Ted Sennett). ------------------------------------------------------------- Friday, March 23, 6 p.m. Saturday, March 24, 2 p.m. Saturday, March 24, 8:30 p.m. Top Hat Directed by Mark Sandrich With Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Edward Everett Horton U.S. 1935, 35mm, black and white, 101 minutes Top Hat is the quintessential Astaire/Rogers film. The fourth of 10 movies the team made together, Top Hat ’s plot turns on the common romantic comedy device of mistaken identity (and Code-era circumstances of forbidden desire) and spins the battling screwball couple’s quarrelling antics into love, near-consummated in the picture’s iconic musical number. “Cheek to Cheek,” as described by Rick Altman, is “more than just a song, it is a hymn to pleasure.” Saturday, March 24, 6:30 p.m. Sunday, March 25, 2 p.m. American Matchmaker – Restored Print! Directed by Edgar G. Ulmer With Leo Fuchs, Judith Abarbanel, Judel Dubinksy U.S. 1940, 35mm, black and white, 87 minutes Yiddish with English subtitles Leo Fuchs, known on Second Avenue as “the Yiddish Fred Astaire,” plays a debonair bachelor who decides to open a matchmaking business in the Bronx after his eighth planned marriage fails on the way to the altar. Edgar G. Ulmer’s ( Detour ) fourth and last Yiddish movie was also his most modern, an art deco romantic comedy about male ambivalence and Jewish assimilation. Restored by The National Center for Jewish Film. ------------------------------------------------------------- Saturday, March 31, 2 p.m. Sunday, April 1, 2 p.m. The Great Ziegfeld Directed by Robert Z. Leonard With William Powell, Myrna Loy, Luise Rainer U.S. 1936, 35mm, black and white, 176 minutes MGM’s lavish, fictionalized portrait of the legendary showman Florenz Ziegfeld was the studio’s most extravagant musical of the period, stocked with a star cast and production numbers of blockbuster magnificence. Charting the impresario’s ascent from sideshow promoter through his popular Broadway Follies to his inevitable financial and physical decline, The Great Ziegfeld was rewarded with the first best picture Oscar for a musical since The Broadway Melody of 1929 . ____________________________________________________________ PORTRAITS OF NEW ORLEANS A series curated in advance of Ameriville —a modern-day variety show that branches out from stories of post-Katrina New Orleans to the rest of the United States, taking place on the Paramount Center’s main stage March 13-18. Friday March 2, 6:30 p.m. Always For Pleasure – Preservation Print! Directed by Les Blank U.S. 1978, 16mm, color, 58 minutes Among American portraitist Les Blank’s masterworks, this glorious, soul-satisfying film is an intense insider's portrait of New Orleans' street celebrations and unique cultural gumbo. “Good- time film-making, ethnography with rhythm.” – Time Out (London) Followed by: The Florestine Collection Directed by Helen Hill, completed by Paul Gailiunas U.S. 2010, 16mm, color, 31 minutes Upon discovering over 100 colorful dresses, handmade by a recently deceased New Orleans African-American seamstress named Florestine Kinchen, artist Helen Hill was inspired to make this portrait of the dressmaker—a project interrupted by Hurricane Katrina and Hill’s own untimely death. Combining Hill’s animated footage and flood damaged home movies of their lives in New Orleans, Gauliunas finished the artist’s last work, crafting a moving tribute to his wife and her love of New Orleans. Friday, March 2, 8:30 p.m. Saturday March 3, 6 p.m. Tootie’s Last Suit —Boston Premiere! Directed by Lisa Katzman U.S. 2007, Digital Video, color, 93 minutes While telling the story of “Tootie” Montana, former Chief of the Yellow Pocahontas Hunters and celebrated throughout New Orleans for the beauty of his elaborately beaded Mardi Gras costumes, Katzman explores not only the complex history of New Orleans’ vibrant Indian culture but also the father-son rivalry that erupts between Tootie and his son—a conflict which speaks to the issue of how traditional cultures are preserved. Winner of the Jean Rouch Award, Society of Visual Anthropology. ------------------------------------------------------------- Friday, March 9, 7 p.m. Friday, March 9, 9 p.m. Saturday, March 10, 7 p.m. Trouble the Water Directed by Tia Lessin, Carl Deal U.S. 2008, 35mm, color, 96 minutes The day before Hurricane Katrina made landfall, 24-year-old Kimberly Rivers Roberts, an aspiring rap artist, turned her video camera on herself and her 9th Ward neighbors—and kept the camera rolling to record dramatic rescues and her harrowing retreat to higher ground. Manohla Dargis of the New York Times wrote that Lessin and Deal “created an ingeniously fluid narrative structure that, when combined with Roberts's visuals, news material and their own original 16- millimeter film footage, ebbs and flows like great drama.” Academy Award Nominee for Best Documentary Feature. ____________________________________________________________ CRAZIE CULT CLASSICS The second installment of our new series, which takes its name from George A. Romero’s The Crazies (1973). Saturday, March 10, 9 p.m. The Intruder Directed by Roger Corman With William Shatner, Frank Maxwell, Beverly Lunsford U.S. 1962, 35mm, black and white, 80 minutes A harrowing look at race relations, Corman’s stinging exposé was made just as school desegregation spread through the South. Shatner, an agent of the reactionary Patrick Henry Society, comes to Caxton, Missouri to spread unrest, ingratiating himself with the town’s influential citizens and turning the already wary whites against the coming integration of the local high school. Print courtesy of the Joe Dante and Jon Davison Collection at the Academy Film Archive. Friday, March 16, 6 p.m. Lumumba Directed by Raoul Peck With Eriq Ebouaney, Alex Descas, Maka Kotto France/Belgium/Haiti/Germany, 2000, 35mm, color, 115 minutes In French and Lingala with English subtitles Peck, Haitian-born and raised in the Congo, crafted this award-winning dramatization. Upsetting the chronology of history—in which Lumumba’s rise from beer salesman to leader of the Congolese National Movement and first Prime Minister of the newly independent Congo ended with his brutal assassination—Peck gives a breathless account of an extraordinary hero. Friday, March 16, 9 p.m. Saturday,

  • MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES and CLASSICS June 24 - September 30, 1994
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release May 1994 MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES AND CLASSICS June 24 - September 30, 1994 A retrospective celebrating the seventieth anniversary of Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer, the legendary Hollywood studio that defined screen glamour and elegance for the world, opens at The Museum of Modern Art on June 24, 1994. MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES AND CLASSICS comprises 112 feature films produced by MGM from the 1920s to the present, including musicals, thrillers, comedies, and melodramas. On view through September 30, the exhibition highlights a number of classics, as well as lesser-known films by directors who deserve wider recognition. MGM's films are distinguished by a high artistic level, with a consistent polish and technical virtuosity unseen anywhere, and by a roster of the most famous stars in the world -- Joan Crawford, Clark Gable, Judy Garland, Greta Garbo, and Spencer Tracy. MGM also had under contract some of Hollywood's most talented directors, including Clarence Brown, George Cukor, Vincente Minnelli, and King Vidor, as well as outstanding cinematographers, production designers, costume designers, and editors. Exhibition highlights include Erich von Stroheim's Greed (1925), Victor Fleming's Gone Hith the Hind and The Wizard of Oz (both 1939), Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), and Ridley Scott's Thelma & Louise (1991). Less familiar titles are Monta Bell's Pretty Ladies and Lights of Old Broadway (both 1925), Rex Ingram's The Garden of Allah (1927) and The Prisoner - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019-5498 Tel: 212-708-9400 Cable: MODERNART Telex: 62370 MODART 2 of Zenda (1929), Fred Zinnemann's Eyes in the Night (1942) and Act of Violence (1949), and Anthony Mann's Border Incident (1949) and The Naked Spur (1953).

    julho 2013 [2] Julho 2013 | Cinemateca Portuguesa-Museu do Cinema CINEMATECA PORTUGUESA-MUSEU DO CINEMA SESSÕES JULHO 2013 RUA BARATA SALGUEIRO, 39 Em julho, final de temporada antes da habitual pausa do mês de agosto, a programação da Cinemateca não 1269­‑059 LISBOA, PORTUGAL TEL. 213 596 200 | FAX. 213 523 180 foge, na sua estrutura, ao modelo seguido nos últimos meses. Repetimos o que temos dito em programas [email protected] recentes: historicamente, por natureza e essência, a programação desta Cinemateca – como da generalidade WWW.CINEMATECA.PT das cinematecas no mundo inteiro – organiza-se numa lógica de Ciclos e retrospetivas, de autor, temáticas, por cinematografias, encarando o cinema e a sua História, os diálogos e as rimas por eles sugeridos, em programas que procuram combinar apostas de maior ambição com rubricas regulares de programação. Assim pautada, uma programação deste tipo pretende ir construindo uma história cujo sentido e dimensão existem tanto no plano do conjunto de cada uma das iniciativas como no do desenho mais abrangente que a cada mês se sugere. É por isto, pela proposta continuada de um ponto de vista, afirmativo ou questionador, entre a descoberta e a redescoberta, que distingue a programação de uma Cinemateca do de uma simples “sala de reprise”. A realidade actual obriga-nos a mudar a regra: sem condições para continuar a cumprir o padrão desejável, a programação da Cinemateca assume essa impossibilidade, sem prescindir de propor as suas sessões – cinco por dia, seis dias por semana. Julho de 2013 será, portanto, mais uma vez, um mês “de avulsos” – sem abdicar, “apesar de tudo”, de um desejo de variedade, riqueza e, mesmo, descoberta, que fica expresso nos muitos títulos e textos que se seguem.

  • El Espectáculo De La Otredad: La Representación Racial Y De Género En Roman Scandals
    EL ESPECTÁCULO DE LA OTREDAD: LA REPRESENTACIÓN RACIAL Y DE GÉNERO EN ROMAN SCANDALS MARÍA APARISI GALÁN UNIVERSITY OF VALENCIA Abstract - The present paper analyses the strategies of racialization and genderization developed in the musical film Roman Scandals (Frank Tuttle 1933) and especially those used in the musical number “Keep Young and Beautiful”, in which Eddie (Eddie Cantor) uses blackface to hide in the bathrooms of ancient Rome in the company of half-naked white women and their black maids. Through a theoretical framework that draws on the contributions of Decolonial Studies, Postcolonialism Studies and Whiteness Studies, together with the methodological tools of Feminist Film Theory, we aim to reveal the phenomena of coloniality of power and gender that returns the white man’s position of power that he had lost as a result of the Great Depression. Key words: otherness; blackface; musical; fetish; look. 1. Introducción El siguiente artículo tiene el propósito de abordar las estrategias de representación racial y de género desarrolladas en la película Roman Scandals (Frank Tuttle, 1933) y concretamente aquellas utilizadas en el número musical “Keep Young and Beautiful” en el que Eddie (Eddie Cantor) utiliza el blackface para hacerse pasar por un hombre negro experto en belleza etíope entre mujeres blancas semidesnudas y sus criadas negras. A través de un marco teórico que bebe de los Estudios Decoloniales, las aportaciones del Postcolonialismo y los estudios de la blanquitud, junto con las herramientas metodológicas de la Teoría Fílmica Feminista, pretendemos desvelar el proceso de significación de la otredad racial y de género articulado por la instancia enunciativa del discurso fílmico, que produce y reproduce los fenómenos de la colonialdiad de poder y de género para asegurar la posición de poder del hombre blanco.

  • Hays Gone By: the Proto-Feminism of Pre-Code Hollywood and the Films
    Hays Gone By: The Proto-Feminism of Pre-Code Hollywood and the Films of Mae West By Daniel Simpson A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in Cultural Studies in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada July, 2019 Copyright © Daniel Simpson, 2019 For Mom and Dad ii Abstract Pre-Code Hollywood has famously been described as an alternative universe of American cinema, as looser censorship restrictions allowed filmmakers to explore adult themes of violence and sexuality far more openly than would be permissible under Joseph Breen and the Production Code Association. My thesis addresses how this era gave rise to a proto-feminist cinema through the transgression of Production Code rules pertaining to gender and sexuality. Though the Pre- Code era was no stranger to virulently misogynistic works, the lack of strict censorship allowed filmmakers to put forth depictions of independent women who were sexually active and in control of their lives. The epitome of this archetype is Mae West, who not only portrayed sex sirens with tremendous agency on-screen, but also took an active role behind-the-scenes as a screenwriter and should be considered the primary author of her films. Though West’s independence on and off-screen would diminish as the Pre-Code era ended, her work remains a trove of proto-feminist cinema through its subversion of male gaze and its consideration of a female spectator. Understanding West’s films, and the era which produced them, helps provide insight on the challenges faced by women in Hollywood, and more specifically, how women- centric art is often devalued and dismissed.

  • Forbidden Hollywood Au Cinéma À Partir Du 1Er Juillet 2020
    Rétrospective Forbidden Hollywood Au cinéma à partir du 1er juillet 2020 Le Pré-Code : parenthèse libertaire d’une ère de censure En 1929, face à la popularité grandissante des productions reflétant l’attitude libertaire de l’époque, la MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) établit un code de censure – le code Hays – visant à abolir toute sorte d’imagerie sexuelle ou de représentation offensante de l’Église et de la société. Cependant, le respect du code n’étant pas imposé légalement, les studios ne l’appliquent pas véritablement, trop préoccupés par la baisse de fréquentation des salles après la crise de 1929. Ainsi, un vent de liberté va souffler sur Hollywood et l’ère Pré-Code (1929-1934) débute avec La Divorcée, de Robert Z. Leonard, mettant en scène Norma Shearer en épouse infidèle se vengeant de l’adultère de son mari. L’incroyable succès critique et financier du film conduit les studios à suivre le mouvement ; bientôt, les productions exaltent les valeurs d’insoumission libertaires à travers une grande diversité de genres cinématographiques. Les personnages féminins incarnent cet esprit en bravant les interdits sociaux et en s’employant à montrer que les femmes sont des hommes comme les autres. Cette ère s’achève brusquement le 1er juillet 1934, lorsque la communauté catholique et l’Église établissent une Légion de la Décence pour surveiller la production des films et menacent de déserter les salles de cinéma. Les studios courbent l’échine sous la pression, marquant le début de l’ère de la censure, qui durera jusqu’à l’établissement du système de classification des films américains en 1968.

This instalment will conclude with a very rare outing for Ken Russell’s The Boy Friend (1971), a comic pastiche of the roaring 1920s starring Twiggy, accompanied by a Q&A with the director and Barbara Windsor. This exuberant selection of MGM Musicals season will also herald an ongoing tribute to the musical genre from the BFI, throughout the next three years. This golden era of Hollywood song and dance will begin with fare from the dazzling 1930s.
